The current signature chicken ramen

The story behind the bowl

Nojo pairs ramen with an izakaya-style small-plate menu, framing the meal as a shared night out rather than a single-bowl stop. Its Japanese restaurant lineage and tavern format make it a distinct San Francisco expression.

Before you go: Check the current broth and seasonal menu before visiting; share a small plate if dining with a group.
