Do not go here. I repeat, do NOT go here. At least not for the ramen burger. Ever since Tutu showed me the ramen wings article, I have been a bit obsessed with ramen-y things, especially since Hot Sauce and Panko deprived us of ramen wings when they took it off their menu permanently. So when we heard about the ramen burger, we thought we had to try it. We had originally identified Nombe, but it had such bad reviews. Shabu Club had pretty bad reviews too, but was a tad better than Nombe. So, after much waiting and anticipation after being out of town, off we went.
The restaurant actually looked really nice for a shabu place in the Inner Richmond, so we were pleasantly surprised and had high hopes! We ordered the kamikaze wings and the Kobe beef fries. The wings tasted alright, but both the Kobe beef fries and the ramen burger were extremely disgusting. They had a huge dollop of mayo which wasted weird. The meat tasted like it was just minutes shy of going bad. The ramen bun of the burger tasted like it had been fried hours ago, and was somewhere between being crunch and super soggy. The fries themselves were fine, but just the sight of the meat and the mayo just made me sick. I rarely waste food, but there was no way I was going to finish any of that crap. We barely finished, got the check, and left feeling very ill.
Do. Not. Go.
