I came in a party of 8 on Saturday for dinner. I love udon and was excited to try Ten Gu. The ambiance is warm and welcoming, and the server was friendly and accommodating. I ordered the beef udon for myself, and we all shared appetizers including the fried oysters, fried squid legs, and vegetable croquettes. The beef udon was delicious and filling. The fried oysters were my favorite of the appetizers. For dessert I had a scoop of black sesame ice cream which was not as strongly flavored as I'm used to, but still delicious and refreshing. Overall, we had a great time and will return for more udon! read more

Ten Gu Ramen - Beef udon - Ramen Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Crystal & Ariala were our servers today. They were friendly and great answering questions as it was our first visit. This is a casual Ramen restaurant with good service and quality food. They do a very brisk takeout business as well. The restaurant was full but our order came out very quickly. We both ordered the shrimp ramen with the thin noodles. The broth was tasty with a jammy egg, corn and a generous portion of perfectly cooked shrimp. If you have a craving for ramen definitely stop by. You won't be disappointed! read more

Ten Gu Ramen - Chicken Ramen. Super tasty. - Ramen Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Came to this establishment for the first time. Food was good and vibe of the place is great. Only thing that kinda sucked is the server and I didn't quite meet eye to eye on my order. I wanted a spicy miso ramen just no chase and vegetable broth instead. She let me know that it cannot be done that way but I can order the vegetable ramen instead and she could add the spicy miso paste as a side. Great. I then asked to remove all the veggies and basically add whatever was in the spicy miso ramen minus the chasu. She told me it was cost extra to do that and I was fine with it. It was kind of a back and forth to and I did speak with her after because I know I was hungry and whatnot but I didn't like being told by her that she understood me and I didn't understand her. Honestly I felt the opposite and just didn't respond to that. Like If that were the case then why was there back and forth about putting the other items in as sides and removing the veggies? I do appreciate her getting the order together though if anything. Overall the owners need to allow modifications it would really make everything so much easier and better for folks looking to eat. Be inclusive. read more

We were in the area and wanted to have lunch before going home. My brother has always liked this place so I decided to try it out. We ordered udon, potstickers, musubi, ramen and a rock n roll. All of the food was absolutely amazing. The broth in the udon and ramen were tasty. The rock n roll was fantastic and my kids loved the musubi and potstickers. The service was friendly and quick. And the restaurant was clean and cozy. We sat by the window so we could people watch and had a great time. I am definitely coming back. read more

Went here on a Friday night an hour before they closed so it was pretty tight. While we were glad they were able to accommodate our big group, the service felt rushed and the server was not too patient. As a group, we wanted to sit together but the place is small and no, you can't move tables and chairs around. Too bad, it would have been a much pleasant experience. Our spicy miso ramen was good though. My mom's dumplings were okay. If service was good, probably would consider coming back. Unfortunately, it might take awhile. read more

Ten Gu Ramen - Edamame and a cold Sapporo - Ramen Near Me - Bakersfield, California

My boyfriend had researched this place so I went with him to eat for the first time. I personally didn't love it as much as he did, but I would go back. There was a little bit of a weight, but that's to be expected if a restaurant is really good. I've been eating udon noodles for my entire life, and this was the first time that I have ever seen the tempura vegetables smashed altogether in one "cake". I've only ever ordered the tempera vegetables as individual deep-fried vegetables. So when I asked what was in it, the waitress said "I don't know." (Now we had just gone to training for a brand new restaurant and we weren't allowed to say ...I don't know.) So when you don't know what's inside of something, it's not very alluring to the customer. yes eventually, she figured it out . I did want tempura udon. But I ordered the plain because of the comment and that it was a "processed cake". The plain was just fine. But I've made plain udon at my house many times so it's not a big deal. I was really wanting those tempura battered vegetables. I will definitely get them somewhere else. But yes, of course if my guy wants to come back here, I will come with him. He really liked his food, although I don't even really know what he ordered. It was curry and rice. But I'm not sure what the other portion of his food was. He had some matcha ice cream for dessert. He said the price was decent for the amount of food. The staff was friendly, but just extremely busy. The restaurant portion was not that large. We sat at the bar. And it was pretty clean inside. There's some chairs outside if there's a wait. read more

Ten Gu Ramen - Shrimp Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I'm not going to give this place a bad review because their service was horrible. I finally left and went to their other location because the server never acknowledge that I was there sitting at the counter, but she looked at me several times and took orders from other customers that came in well after me. I will say this, I am glad I got crummy service at this location because the other location there was a server that was just sweet as ever. She busted her butt I think instead of going to the one by my house I will drive across the other side of town and go to the one over off Calloway. I have been to this establishment several times and their food is off the hook. read more

So day two of ramen! We went to the Coffee Road location the day before and craved this again. It's so yummy and filling without feeling stuffed. We ordered the Shoyu Ramen, no seaweed and added crispy onions. We also ordered the pork katsu curry, spam masubi, the Rock-n-roll sushi roll, and the gyoza. Just like at the Coffee Rd location, EVERYTHING was delicious. This place does not give you a free soft drink and it looks like they have more grill options while the other has more sushi options. This place was also clean and the staff friendly and polite. I don't know how they do it, but they only had one server taking the order and busting the tables, I suspect they run an efficient operation. Either way we loved it and will definitely go back. Enjoy! read more

My niece and I had a late lunch on May 28, 2024. I ordered the vegetable spring rolls. The spring rolls were delicious. They were served piping hot and had a wonderful crunch. The order came with 5 medium sized spring rolls and a nice sweet chili dipping sauce. We also ordered the dumplings (aka potstickers). The dumplings were served piping hot as well. No sauce was served with a spring rolls which was disappointing. I asked for a bit of white vinegar so I could prepare my own dipping sauce but they didn't have any white vinegar, again, disappointing. The dumplings were cooked to perfection. They contained a mixture of ground pork and cabbage. Kinda your standard potstickers. My niece and I both ordered the spicy miso ramen with thick noodles. I added an extra soft egg, roasted black garlic oil and fried onions. The broth was not overly spicy or salty. The soup contained three generous pieces of fatty pork, corn, one soft egg, bamboo strips, thinly sliced green onions. The noodles were cooked to perfection. Our server was on-point with service. She was very attentive, friendly and knowledgeable. The women's restroom was clean and fully stocked. Ample parking but during lunch, I can see parking being an issue. The portions were generous, platting was nice and the quality of the ingredients were noticeable. I highly recommend Ten Gu Ramen. read more

There is pretty good ramen but unfortunately establishment only has Coke Zero product and hostess would not allow me to bring in my diet Dr Pepper and eat at their restaurant. I'm sorry I would have spent tons more on various menu items and you're going to complain about a drink you cannot provide. Sorry that attitude will lose you customers starting with this one. read more

I had 30 minutes to spare before a scheduled Yelp event on District Blvd so I made a quick stop at Ten Gu Ramen. I live in the area and have always wanted to eat here but just never really got around to doing it until today. It was a bit warm for me to have ramen so I opted for a small bowl of eel & rice and an order of spam musubi. The service was definitely quick because I made it out of the restaurant within 30 minutes in time for my appointment. I do wish I had more time because I probably would've ordered a larger bowl of the eel & rice. The eel was smoky and topped with that sweet, lacquered sauce and placed on a bed of soft Japanese rice. The dish was heavily topped with fresh scallions and takuan (Japanese yellow pickled radish). Nothing amazing about the musubi as I can definitely make a better musubi at home. The spam could've been cut a little thicker so the ratio between rice and meat is a bit more proportional. Next time I'll probably try the spicy pork ramen or an udon noodle soup. The restaurant had a cool, relaxed ambiance. The staff were very attentive. read more

The people I spoke to at Both locations were so kind and helpful although the ramen is expensive and not the best unfortunately. It took like 15 min for everything to be ready which was good but probably won't come back read more

Well done, Ten Gu Ramen! Since my last visit 5 years ago, I decided to give this restaurant another shot. I was pleasantly surprised with the spicy miso ramen that I ordered. It was the perfect amount of spiciness! Our waitress was an Asian lady who was very attentive to us and efficient. This was a much better dining experience and I wouldn't mind returning here in the future. read more

From the outside it looks pretty boring but walking into the little restaurant was like bring overseas at an authentic ramen spot! Service was friendly and we were seated immediately! Prices are reasonable. I ordered a sushi roll and spicy fried chicken both were about $20 total. My wife ordered a ramen. I really enjoyed my order and she was pleased with hers! Not the best ramen we've had but still pretty good! We also ordered the lunch size spring rolls for $2.50, they were excellent! read more

This place is AMAZING!! I always get a Plain Udon with thick noodles (because I'm gluten-free, YES, THEY HAVE IT), and every time, it's perfect! The people there are amazing, too! They are so kind and respectful. I think they have music playing in the back, but I haven't been in a while. :( If they do, then the music taste goes perfectly with the atmosphere. Food 10/10 Service 10/10 and Ambiance 10/10 !! read more

My friend dragged me here, he believe it's the best ramen in town. It is a pretty authentic Asian feel from the moment you walk in. Very intimate place and well decorated. We had the fried dumpling and squid appetizer, they are both pretty good. Being the true Ramen addict, I ordered the tonkotsu ramen with extra pork. The broth is very nice. They put enough work into it. The pork is also good. Noodle portion is on the small side. The flavor is very well balanced. I personally prefer completely unbalanced, salty, fatty, smoky ramen. But this is a healthier option. Very satisfied read more

This is a great spot for anyone craving some tasty food. While it doesn't quite match the place I've tried on the north side, the food is still decent.

It was my first time trying Ten Gu Ramen. It place is small but mighty! I don't think it was slow the entire time we visited. The staff was friendly and everything was clean and up kept. The food was excellent! My wife has the beef udon, perfect on a cold night in Bakersfield. The soup had plenty of noodles and beef. It was a nice size serving. The Vegetable Spring Rolls were fresh, crispy and full of flavor, a perfect crunch. I had the Chicken Takoyaki. It was a nice size portion, everything was full of flavor. I wish it had just a few more veggies, but over all it was very good. read more

Although this local is a little small, the service is very attentive. They're super friendly and accommodating to your needs. Extremely baby friendly. The food here will have you wanting to come back frequently. The pork that comes in the ramen is so tender and flavorful. The bbq chicken bowl is also delicious. Spring rolls are always super crunchy and pair phenomenally with the sweet and sour sauce they provide. The sauce has the perfect balance between sweet and tangy. The atmosphere is always cozy and inviting. read more

We just had to leave this establishment after we had ordered drinks and appetizers. Someone in our group has a food allergy and they refused to accommodate it. They said "it's too much trouble for the cooks because everyone wants to change the order so we don't accommodate". It was literally one ingredient in the ramen that had to be changed. It wasn't even asking to make a different broth it was to remove that one item. Since they wouldn't accommodate that one simple request we decided to leave so that everyone in our party could eat. I had never been to a food establishment that denies to accommodate food allergies. They also didn't want to honor the happy hour prices they had advertised. So just be aware when they ring up your order. read more

Ten Gu Ramen - Lunch Time. - Ramen Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I'm giving this place four stars for offering a decent value lunch special. I had the curry chicken udon, and it included a generous amount of chicken. They may serve Okinawan beer, Japanese sake, have Japanese music and decor, but the language behind the counter and in the restroom ad is Chinese. Which is appropriate, because Ramen is Chinese, originally. The service was great, so this is a good place if you're in the mood for noodles. read more

Order done and delivered on time. Packed well. Tasted good. Dumpling were a bit smaller than I remember but they were delish. Large order of Pork/Shrimp Fried Rice (large) was also a little smaller than expected. But that seems to be the current trend everywhere. Perhaps to keep costs as low as they can with the current inflation. Overall still happy with how the food tastes. Will continue to come eat here or order for pick up or delivery. read more

The good: the ramen tasted great. I had ordered the miso broth with corn and spicy meat which was very nicely flavored, well balanced tare without being too salty or too umami. Appetizers are also good, from the takoyaki to the gyoza (they have it as, simply, dumpling on the menu). Service was quick and attentive enough, and Covid relations are followed for the staff and the patrons. The bad: not sure if they were understaffed or if they were just overwhelmed but the wait staff had a few mistakes here and there. I had asked for the corn to be in the ramen and the spicy meat to be on the side, so I can control the amount of the spice and extra meat I wanted in there and to taste the broth on its own. But, instead, the spicy meat with mixed in the broth and the corn was missing entirely. When I had asked for it be corrected, the staff simply gave me cold corn on the side. It is an nonissue in the end, but i wish i would have gotten to taste the broth on its own first. That being said, I think the staff was just stretched too thin at the time, they were pretty packed. Still would recommend the place a try. read more

I want to start off by saying, the sides can make or break a restaurant. And let me tell you, the sides and appetizers here are to die for! Cheap and tasty takoyaki is my favorite as well as the gyoza. This is also where I find genuine Japanese curry, which they serve with crunchy katsu! While the ramen is good and somewhat cheap for Bakersfield standards, don't overlook the other options on the menu as well! read more

The staff was friendly when I picked up my order and the inside of the restaurant was nice, had some music goin and looked like everyone was having a good time. I didn't get any pics of my food this time. Next time. Hahaha read more

Ten Gu Ramien need to learn how to accommodate Americans. If we're spending are hard earn cash on your food; then accommodate! If we want more chicken, veggies, broth then Ten Gu needs to be able to accommodate. If charging and extra dollar or two; many will pay the extra charge. But it needs to be reasonable. Be flexible. Plus if your still using MSG you need to inform your customers. Individuals could have food sensitivities, restrictions. Americans need to be aware during these sensitive times. Learn to stop doing business with a company that will take your hard earned money and treat you badly i e, refuse to service their customers in a satisfactory way. Find out the ingredients being added to your food. I find that many foreign restaurants have one mission in mind; money and the ends justify the means. You really don't know what your eating with many of the foreign restaurants. Wake Up! read more
