    vegetable ramen
    Melissa Y.

    Pros: Courteous staff, plenty of outdoor seating, quick food arrival, clean restroom. The ramen was kind of ... unremarkable? I ordered the vegetable ramen and it was kind of bland. It came with corn, shredded mushroom, bok choy, a soft tofu slice, and bean sprouts. The noodles appeared to be spinach noodles because they were green, and they weren't as chewy as I would have liked. I much prefer the vegan ramen from Hinodeya because the ingredients were more varied/interesting and the broth was richer. Yugo Ramen's version felt primarily "healthy" and just not as interesting.

    Chicken Karaage
    Cathy T.

    Stopped by before a movie to grab a quick bite. At 4:30pm on a Saturday it was easy for us to walk in and get seated. For appetizers I ordered the Geso Calamari and Chicken Karaage. They came out within 10 minutes of ordering! The chicken Karaage pieces were way bigger than I anticipated and the chicken was very juicy. The calamari is specifically the legs which I personally. The sauce that the calamari came with was packed with a light ponzu/tempura sauce flavor without tasting overly salty. My salmon son had three large pieces of salmon. Great bang for your buck! The salmon was delicate and flaky. The teriyaki sauce on the salmon was very well balanced. The pickled radish on the side helped change up the texture as I made my way through my bowl. The sunset is a butterfly pea drink. It was fruity and not too sweet (the best compliment). I did forget to add in a topping though, so that was on me.

    Fried Oysters
    Lin M.

    Came here on a rainy weeknight. The restaurant is cute and right outside the Newark Mall. We ordered the Fried Oyster, Roasted Pork Belly, and Takoyaki Then we both ordered the Yugo Ramen The service was wonderful and everything was yummy! The ramen wasn't quite as flavorful as I was hoping but it was still good!

    Miso Ramen

    It's been a while since I've been to Yugo Ramen and I have to say, the service and quality of food has remained the same. It's nostalgic to be back to an "OG" ramen place for me in Newark. The ambience has always been relaxing, the type that invites you to stay here way longer after you're done with your meal.

    Shumai

    "Warm Bowls, Fast Service, and a Standout Shumai" Food (5 / 5): On a cold day like this, a hot bowl of ramen absolutely hits the spot -- and this place delivers. Right now they even have a Black Friday deal: buy one ramen bowl, get the second one 50% off, so definitely bring a date and make it a ramen night. We ordered the Yugo Ramen and the Shio Ramen, and both were excellent. The ingredients taste genuinely fresh -- the bamboo shoots were crisp (not soggy at all), the chashu pork was flavorful and tender, the broth was light yet full of depth, and the noodles had that perfect firm bite I personally love. Surprisingly, the dish that stole the show was actually the Fried Shumai. My wife couldn't stop talking about how good it was -- even during the drive home. Crispy, flavorful, and definitely a must-order appetizer. Service (5 / 5): The service here is impressively fast. After we ordered, our meals showed up in what felt like 10 minutes. The host was incredibly warm and welcoming -- possibly the owner -- and she even walked over to say goodbye and bowed to thank us before we left. Small gestures, big impact. Ambience / Décor: The restaurant offers dog-friendly outdoor seating, which is a big plus. The outside area has nice seating and feels comfortable enough to enjoy your meal without rush. Overall: Fresh ingredients, fast service, great flavors, and a genuinely kind staff make this spot worth a visit. With the ramen deal going on and that unforgettable fried shumai, you'll definitely want to come back.

    This place has so far survived being at Newpark Mall! I come here randomly when I need to charge our car. Boba is okay. They have alcoholic boba. Curious about that, but I didn't get any this time around. I was bummed by the ramen I had. It honestly had no flavor at all. Maybe I'll try something else on the menu next time. Service though is great. Met the owner and she's just lovely. The teen cashier was also amazing too. Very shy but she made sure to be attentive.

    Vegetarian ramen with Shrimp
    Amitha S.

    Obsessed with this place! I got the vegetarian ramen, switched out the kale noodles for regular noodles, added shrimp, and got it spicy. it was seriously one of the best bowls I've ever had. The restaurant is so clean and the owner is so kind. My friend had the chicken ramen and loved it too!

    It's great to have a new ramen option in Fremont, and Yugo gets a lot right. The restaurant itself is modern and clean, with a pleasant atmosphere that's surprisingly nice considering its in the dead nepark mall. The service was a real standout - our servers were exceptionally friendly and attentive throughout the meal. The ramen is the main event, and it shows promise. We tried the Yugo Special and the Miso Ramen; in both, the broth was rich and the ajitama (seasoned egg) was perfectly cooked. However, a couple of key items missed the mark for us, especially considering the price. The chashu pork was rather bland and not very tender. The bigger letdown was the Okonomiyaki Fries. It's a creative idea, but the execution involved thick, unseasoned fries covered in an overwhelmingly sweet sauce. We found we couldn't finish them. Yugo has a great foundation with its atmosphere, service, and ramen broth. I'd recommend sticking to the classic ramen bowls and passing on some of the sides.

    Not too many people are visiting the mall anymore so there isn't too many people eating at the restaurant. Service is always fast and food comes out fast. Yugo ramen (house ramen) is my favorite dish to get and my partner is able to get chicken ramen with chicken broth which is hard to find since most places have pork broth. I've visited this restaurant throughout the years and quality is perfect as always!

    R1. Yugo Ramen
    Audrey E.

    I was on an overnight for my work trip and decided to check this ramen restaurant out. I ordered the Yugo Ramen which was their specialty and it was delicious. It wasn't too salty just the right amount of flavors and the broth was very tasty. The ramen noodles are fresh and the accompaniment was fresh and plentiful. The charsu pork was good. I enjoyed the black mushrooms they were tasty. Service was great, fast, efficient, and helpful. I was the only customer in there so I for my food relatively fast. Ambiance was nice, spacious, clean, and alot of seating area.

    R5. Seafood Ramen
    Shosh A.

    Nice experience overall. I really enjoyed the outdoor seating , definitely the highlight. The staff and manager were great, friendly and welcoming. I tried the Seafood Ramen. It was okay, with a good one, standard taste. Good spot for the atmosphere and service.

    Salmon Teriyaki Don
    Christina G.

    I would definitely recommend this I came here for lunch today and got the salmon and rice I could have definitely shared this because it was a big portion but decide to indulge so delicious and they even have a claw machine for the kidos

    Hidden gem! We just recently moved to Fremont and found this place. It's now my go to spot for comfort food. The interior is beautifully designed and decorated with warm lighting and brick making the open space feel warm and inviting. The food and portion size is amazing. My favorite is the Spicy Pork Kimchi Don with a Honeymoon drink, my fiancé loves their Yugo Ramen and Assam Milk Tea. We recently tried their chicken karaage and it was so good! Crust on the outside, tender and juice on the inside. The service is impeccable, every time we've dined in, the workers are quick, check on you often, and the food comes out quick and fresh! We love Yugo Ramen and we wish them success!

From M-F, 11:30am-2pm (closing) for just $19.90, you get to pick one of the ramen bowls, and one of appetizers that are listed (at half the size). Here's what we got: FRIED OYSTERS (5) - $12 This was not one of the appetizer options to the lunch specials but sis really needed her fried oysters, haha. This comes with a side of creamy sauce that tasted like a yummy potato salad. It was awesome! The fried oysters were very hot to be careful, and it was very much enjoyed even though it scraped the roof of my mouth, haha. TONKOTSU RAMEN - $16.95 Tonkotsu (Pork Broth) chashu pork, green onion, yellow onion, soft boiled egg, fried green onion, kikurage mushroom. I'm happy that we get a WHOLE egg and not just half! Everything about this bowl was so good and creamy! GYOZA (6) - $8 Chicken/Veggie pan fried post stickers. The lunch specials only come with 3 pieces, and I'm always happy when your savory finger food comes with a dip! No complaints here! KARAAAGE (6) - $10 Fried Boneless Chicken. The lunch specials only come with 3 pieces, but they are huge! Juicy dark meat pieces, with a nice creamy srirarcha dipping sauce! Also hot, so be careful! It just means it's fresh! They have a back room that was nice and quiet. You can smell the fresh clean laundry from the laundromat next door, haha. The service was great, and everyone was so nice and attentive. We enjoyed ourselves very much, and was happily full with leftovers to snack on later!

Upon my arrival the kind host greeted me immediately and allowed me to take a seat. I was unsure of what to order and I had asked the host what to get and he positioned for me to try the coconut miso ramen and lemme tell you it was honestly one of the best bowls of ramen I've had. The broth was incredibly rich and velvety, with the coconut adding a subtle natural sweetness that complemented the deep umami of the miso instead of overpowering it. It created a balanced, layered flavor that was both comforting and surprisingly refined. Every spoonful had depth, and the broth was so good that I found myself wanting to finish every last drop. The noodles had an excellent texture, firm with just the right amount of chew--allowing them to hold onto the broth beautifully. The toppings were fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and blended seamlessly with the overall dish, adding texture and flavor without distracting from the star of the bowl. What impressed me most was how harmonious everything tasted. Fusion flavors can sometimes feel forced, but this ramen was exceptionally well executed. The coconut and miso worked together to create something unique while still respecting the traditional character of ramen. If you're looking for a bowl that's comforting, flavorful, and a little different from the usual tonkotsu or shoyu, I can't recommend the Coconut Miso Ramen at Tadamasa highly enough. It's the kind of meal that stays on your mind long after you've finished eating, and I'll definitely be coming back for it. You ever slapped a lady while giving her the old baloney pony and it made you realize that this is the best thing ever to happen? It's similar to that feeling
