Tajima Ramen East Village - San Diego

Probably the best food we had in the Gaslamp district!

The brown haired girl working there tonight (21:30, Friday Sept 6) was amazing, she made everything perfect.

Service is poor, but their ramen is good. Came once to try their other options (was hoping for their pork chashu or poke bowl) and was told a few minutes after I had ordered that they were out of rice. So I was stuck there eating edamame for about 15 minutes while I waited for my waiter to take my card, with only 3 other tables being waited on by 2 servers. A lot of the edamame were empty or already opened, which felt a little gross. Also, one of their doors kept slamming loudly due to the regular slow wind in downtown, which was annoying. Probably won't be returning. Recommend getting their ramen delivered or picked up to go!

Had the vegan ramen. It was delicious but a bit a more creamy for me. The spicy sauce added a good zing!

Delicious ramen! We ordered the Tajima Red and Tajima Black along with sushi hand rolls for appetizers. Cool place and friendly service :
