Ramen, Rolls, and Rice on Beach Park Blvd

Noodles, rolls, and bento

Come for the ramen, and stay for everything else. Our menu is built so everyone at the table finds a favorite. It starts with a full lineup of ramen: rich tonkotsu, savory shoyu, light shio, miso, spicy, curry, and a dedicated vegetarian section. From there, it branches out into sushi rolls and hand rolls, grilled skewers and plates, okonomiyaki, yaki soba, rice bowls and katsu curry, plus plenty of appetizers to share, like gyoza, chicken karaage, and tempura.

Hands down my favorite ramen spot - been here a couple of times and the owners are always super friendly. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. We always order our ramen with a small side of karaage or sushi rolls and a couple of beers We've tried pretty much all of their ramen but our go to is always their spicy black garlic or spicy tonkatsu ! Parking is a plus, there's never any hassle and it's free

Esther and team are amazing. It's always a treat whenever I get to visit. I've been eating at Kenta for years - since 2017 - and I've never had a bad experience. It's recently had a bit of a design upgrade, the food is as good now as it was years ago, the staff are friendly and patient, the Asahi is always frosty, and the ramen steaming hot. As long as I live in the Bay Area I will always eat at Kenta!

Love getting food from kenta ramen! It's located in the food plaza that's close to the bay trail. They offer a variety of Japanese food and we've tried lots! Like the pumpkin okonomiyaki, tempura, yakisoba, vegetable ramen, some sushi rolls, various donburi, and curry! We've enjoyed all their food so far. In our most recent order we got a katsudon, vegetable yakisoba, dragon roll, with a side of curry! The katsudon is super yummy and flavorful! The pork cutlet, and, onions together have…

This was our first time dining in. We've had the Black Garlic Ramen delivered during the pandemic, and it was good. Dining-in, such a good experience! Greeted by friendly staff. Restaurant is clean and welcoming. QR code on the table for a menu. (I still get a kick out of doing that!) We opted for the Gyoza and Karaage for appetizers. Both were delicious. We both chose the Spicy Kenta Ramen, and added Chashu pork as extras. So freakin good! It wasnt overly spicy like a lot of other places…

First time eating here today and was quite pleased. The food was very tasty. Its a small restaurant -with ample parking. The service was excellent, although the server wasn't to friendly. I had the Salmon Teriyaki, grilled and served over rice. My cousin had the Chicken Karaage Curry Rice with potatoes and carrots. Each entree came with Muso soup and a salad and green tea. They have a large menu,looking forward to going back to try other entrees. Satisfied Customers!
