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.

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.

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.

Taste good, not a 5 star but worth a try. Ordered AKA(red) Tonkotsu which is spicy.

I used to get ramen at Kaito when they were near pleasure point. Now that they are in the mall, I’ve order sushi twice. The mall food court doesn’t have the greatest ambiance (perhaps take the food to go), but Kaito’s sushi is AMAZING & really cheap. It’s fresh & tastes delish. Highly recommend it. I look forward to trying out their ramen again.

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’

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.

It was fun to stop in I was buying more regularly but I pointed out they were charging more than the sign said at the counter. All I got was an “oh” so on principle I just won’t be coming back to support. Will just purchase elsewhere.. but as long as it was worth it to not update your signs or charge what it says.

Their black garlic tonkatsu is scrumptious. I just wish they had a regular restaurant so I didn’t have to feel bad about throwing away a bunch of plastic when eating here.
