Yokohama Iekei Ramen Daly City

The search continues for a good ramen spot in Daly City. Although the broth was creamy and noodles were thick, everything I tried seemed to be lacking in....something, Servers were very attentive and nice. Plenty of parking in the adjacent, free parking garage.

Black Garlic Ramen ($16.98 + $0.99 mild spicy) - The egg was not marinated, and they seemed to be really stingy on the toppings. I only had a few bean sprouts and a sprinkle of green onions, maybe 2 bamboo shoots at most.

Jigoku Ramen ($16.98 + $0.99 regular spicy) - Same complaints as above. Also when they say it's spicy, they mean spicy,

Karage Fried Chicken ($7.90) - Fried well but zero seasoning. I think they expect you to use the accompanying sauce, but it is too sweet for my liking.

My boyfriend and I wanted to try this spot out since it opened fairly recently and is nearby one of our favorite tasting rooms. Parking is easy - there's a free garage just steps away. We came here during the early afternoon on a weekday so we were seated right away. Service was great. Our server was welcoming and attentive. We ordered the ramen, obviously, but the selection on the menu was varied but not too much. I ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen and it was solid - nice noodle texture, a tasty broth, and the pork/egg/mushrooms/seaweed were cooked just right. Is it the best ramen I've ever had? No. But it's really solid and will definitely be a go-to for the future.

I'm so grateful for this ramen place! It is a delicious addition to this area. Their broths are amazing. I can taste the care they put into their dishes.

I got the spicy miso ramen.

Noodle is good
Broth is a bit confusing. It has the fattiness of ton kotsu broth, but I can't really taste the miso or spiciness.
Ajitama is overcooked
Chashu is unorthodox

Overall not impressed.
