Signature ramen noodles and artfully crafted sushi rolls showcase Japanese artistry.

Kenta Ramen has plenty to interest a ramen fan while giving everyone else at the table options, from sushi and grilled dishes to savory Japanese pancakes. Kenta Ramen at 1495 Beach Park Boulevard in Foster City offers Japanese noodle bowls alongside sushi, grilled dishes and okonomiyaki. Ramen choices span tonkotsu, miso, shoyu and shio, with black garlic and corn-butter variations adding further depth to the selection. The spicy Kenta bowl combines pork broth with stewed pork, tofu, mushrooms, seaweed, corn and egg, while a separate vegetarian ramen category provides alternatives. Appetizers include chicken karaage, gyoza, agedashi tofu and braised pork belly. Grilled yellowtail collar, whole squid and yakitori offer a different route through the menu, and Japanese-style savory pancakes can be ordered with vegetable, beef or seafood combinations. Sushi rolls, hand rolls, rice dishes and yakisoba broaden the choices for a group. For ramen in Foster City, Kenta's appeal is the variety of broth styles paired with enough other Japanese dishes to build a meal beyond the noodle bowl.
