The food here is always delicious and they never disappoint. The servers are always friendly as well. Been coming here for many years and so glad they made it through the pandemic. I even did take out throughout the pandemic. Went for take out today and the order was ready in no time. My fave items are the agadashi tofu, chicken karage, and the shiro tan tan min deluxe. I also enjoy the fact that they always have old school jazz records on the walls and in the background music. Every one that I've taken there ends up becoming a big fan.

Came here after going to Scandinavian Designs to look at dining tables. It was around dinner time but the restaurant wasn't that pack and we were sat right away I got the Shiro Tan Tan Men Delux and it was so yummy. It came w three different kinds of meat - ground pork, chashu and pork belly. The broth is very tasty and thick. The noodles are bouncy. The service was fast and friendly. They also have condiments that you can add to your ramen - the fried garlic is a must!

Himawari is a go-to restaurant in San Mateo and arguably one of the best restaurants in the area. The ramen is of consistently good quality, and the unagidon bowl, which I got this time around, was delicious and super cheap compared to eel rice bowls elsewhere. The service is always super fast and the wait staff is accommodating. There is sometimes a short wait as the restaurant is always busy but the wait goes by fast!

Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 My family and I have been coming here for years and it never fails to satisfy us. The ramen is very refreshing and not too heavy. Their chicken karaage is also superb. I love this restaurant a lot and highly recommend it for everyone!
