Ramen Open Late In San Francisco, California

Looking for ramen open late in San Francisco? I've mapped the best late-night ramen spots in San Francisco, California — ranked by Google reviews, broth quality, and hours.

San Francisco's ramen scene is as sophisticated as you'd expect from a city with one of the deepest Japanese cultural footprints in America.

HINODEYA on Chestnut Street in the Marina is elegant without being fussy — the tonkotsu is milky white, the tare is house-made, and the experience is calibrated for someone who knows exactly what they're tasting.

Torraku on Lombard runs a tighter operation but produces extraordinary ramen given the footprint. Denya on Polk Street is the neighborhood hidden gem that every SF ramen person knows. San Francisco's late-night ramen quality per bowl is as high as anywhere in the country.
