First time at the Ramon Kaito. Its located in the Capitola Mall food court. When I saw they had sushi on the menu, I had to try it. Its not just noodles here. Im soo glad I stopped by to eat. I really liked the shrimp tempura roll. $9.50 and Im definately coming back. They made it fresh, even the tempura was fresh crunchy. I love sushi, Im soo glad to have found another local spot that makes a shrimp roll to my liking. The food court in the Capitola mall has a huge dining room to eat in. Very clean with restrooms available.

Tonkotsu ramen broth tastes like it was mixed with cream, so it doesn’t taste like tonkotsu ramen… Shashu pork was okay, but the portion is miserable. Japanese curry was good. Spoons are ridiculously small

One review said this is the best ramen in Santa Cruz (the only one). I agreed with it, the ramen tasted really not bad. The soup was good, chashu was good, corn was fresh and sweet. Their sushi was also great. I guess whenever I want to eat ramen. I will be back here.

Epic! we love their takoyaki, I hope I will love their sushi next time and yes, we loved their ramen so dang much. I’m happy for you Capitola people! This is such a nice and lovely spot to dine in. Good food, great service, cute staff, and you know… The homemade ice-cream shop next door, ‘Penny’s Ice-creamery’More info on Way Beyond Pad Thai site and Youtube Channel :)

I really wanted this to be a good ramen spot. Being a local in Santa Cruz there are no places to get ramen so when I saw this place with 5 stars I was excited and gave it a try. Very disappointed, the soup had a terrible aftertaste kind of like the smell of a barnyard and they only give you one piece of meat which was at least tender, little to no veggies and some soggy seaweed. This did not scratch that itch, really hope they figure out whatever’s up with that aftertaste.

I used to get ramen at Kaito when they were near pleasure point. Now that they are in the mall, Ive order sushi twice. The mall food court doesnt have the greatest ambiance (perhaps take the food to go), but Kaitos sushi is AMAZING & really cheap. Its fresh & tastes delish. Highly recommend it. I look forward to trying out their ramen again.

Came here because my in-laws swore by the amazing ramen you can find here. They are locals, and my husband and I love to visit and try all their favorite restaurants when we’re in town.Kaito means ‘meeting’ in Japanese. We had a delightful experience sitting out on their patio, during the perfect time before sunset. It was warm and not too breezy. Surrounded by succulents and passion fruit vines, it was such a nice setting.They serve traditional style tonkotsu ramen, which hails from the Southern prefecture of Fukuoka in Japan. Their broth contains a mix of chicken and pork, but they do have a vegan broth available upon request. Add all kinds of toppings like a soft boiled egg (highly recommended) and sea veggies.They have a full sushi bar so you can enjoy sashimi and fresh hand rolls of your choice. Our waiter was very nice. I ordered hot green tea and the refills were welcomed and soothing.Price-wise, it is not cheap. For 3 bowls of ramen and tip, it came out to be over $70.
