Review Summary

Tea Bay in Sacramento, CA holds a 4.2-star rating from 94 Google reviews, based on our read of the aggregated diner feedback. Taste lands in the "good, reliable" range rather than a wow factor, based on reviewer feedback. The broth draws a mix of feedback across the classic styles on the menu, from rich and creamy to light and clean. Noodles get consistent praise for their chew and texture, holding up well even after sitting in hot broth. Bowl sizes trend on the smaller side according to some reviewers, though quality generally makes up for it.

Tea Bay offers dine-in, takeout, delivery, so there are multiple ways to enjoy a bowl. Overall, Tea Bay is a solid choice worth trying if you're in Sacramento craving ramen.

Pretty good ramen. The broth was tasty even if not super memorable. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it. Loved the soft-boiled egg — perfectly jammy yolk.

This is the real deal. Authentic flavor that reminds me of bowls I had in Japan. The noodles had a perfect chew and held up well in the broth. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night. Great spot to bring friends — we will definitely be back.

Absolutely delicious from the first bite to the last drop of broth. The noodles had a perfect chew and held up well in the broth. Massive serving — bring your appetite, you will need it. Fresh toppings and a beautifully marinated egg. Service was fast even though it was packed.

Honestly one of the best bowls of ramen I have had in a long time. Noodles were springy and cooked exactly to that ideal firmness. Wish the bowl were a little bigger, but the quality made up for it. Pork was fatty in the best way and the green onions added a nice bite. Got a bit busy at peak hours, but the wait was worth it.

Service was friendly but the bowl itself was just average. Thick, satisfying noodles that soaked up all that flavor. The bowl is huge — easily enough to fill you up for the night.
