Fumi Curry & Ramen

They had an interesting vegan curry option that I wasn’t expecting. A “chicken” made from gobo roots. I like a good spice and medium is not enough for spicy lovers. Would suggest getting highest spicy level.

Tried the every green veggie curry with spice level spicy it tasted great. The spicy bean sprouts salad was a bit too spicy for my taste. Overall happy with the experience and will go again.

Awesome spot. Super delicious curry. Everyone in our group really enjoyed their food. Would absolutely come back and bring friends here

Our go-to spot for Japanese curry. Best in SF! The crew are always nice and friendly. We’ve never had a bad experience.

So yummy, I love the ramen here it’s to die for. It’s got a very specific chill vibe and for San Francisco it’s relatively cheap. We got two ramens, an order of rice, chicken katsu and an egg. In total (not counting tip) it was only 37 dollars.

Delicious meals with good prices and service. Go for the Curry or Tantan Ramen, those are awesome!!

Excellent. Authentic. Some of the best Japanese curry in SF. Service is warm and friendly. Highly recommend.

Incredible, so good! I had Ramen and my husband had Curry. I also got a milk tea, which was very tasty. I would definitely eat here again.

Delicious! All of my curry dishes from Fumi are delicious. I also love their flexibility to switch the ramen to udon, or from white to brown rice, or even yellow to black curry.

The curry for the katsu was sizzling hot and comes in a hot plate. Very nice touch, and there’s a layer of egg on the bottom.

Super solid Chicken Katsu Curry, friendly staff. Appropriate pricing

Max has been so helpful, I loved this place. They are making the most delicious Ramen I've ever eaten!!

The area is a little hard to park but the food is quite good. Would be nice to have some salad with the meal.

Hit up this Japanese spot in Burlingame and it was honestly such a solid choice. I ordered the Cherry Blossom sushi roll and the Pork Teriyaki Rice, and both were on point. The Cherry Blossom roll was super fresh — it had this perfect combo of tuna, salmon, and avocado with just the right amount of rice. The fish was buttery and smooth, and the whole thing was topped with this light drizzle of sauce that gave it a nice kick without overpowering the flavor. Really clean and balanced. Now the pork teriyaki rice? So good. The pork was tender, juicy, and had that caramelized edge from the teriyaki glaze. It came on a bed of fluffy white rice that soaked up all the sauce — every bite was flavorful. The vibe in the place was chill too — not too loud, staff was super friendly, and everything came out pretty quick. Definitely a spot I’d go back to.

Went for lunch and was seated quickly. The pork katsu w/curry and egg tasted great too!

This is definitely the place everyone should go to get their Japanese comfort food. I can’t stop thinking about meal after I ate it for the first time. I ordered the fried chicken curry hot plate and it was so delicious. The spice level is very mild. I ordered medium spicy and it wasn’t very spicy at all. The curry tasted so rich and delicious. The agedashi tofu and seaweed salad were also very fresh and everything was perfectly seasoned.

Very calm lighting and atmosphere, very pleasant I loved it. Food is delicious, you can make the curry spicy which is great: Service was lovely. All around ten out of ten experience. Will be coming again!

Authentic ramen with a creative twist - serving curry and ramen in the same bowl! My friends got the curry ramen but I got the "California" ramen, basically a deconstructed sushi roll with crab, seaweed, avocado, and cucumber. Udon noodles had amazing texture, slimy but with a nice al dente bite. Didn't have to wait long on a Friday night, quick in and out.

I've been to a lot of ramen places, this place is definitely in my top 3. Great selection of ramen that both taste great and authentic. They also have a great selection of japanese curry and bubble tea. It's a bit on the small side so might be crowded during lunch.

This place is so cute!!! We came in on a Saturday at lunchtime and I was surprised to see no one else in the restaurant 😢 only two people went in for pickup But other than that, the ambiance is cute and the place is very simple. The curry was pretty good and it's a one of a kind way to eat it with a stone plate. It was really enjoyable because the curry and rice stayed nice and warm for the whole meal! I think that was the best part. Will definitely come back again

Fumi Curry & Ramen is a really nice local spot! Their service is quick and attentive, and the food is super flavorful and satisfying!

My favorite restaurant in SF. Period. This is my go-to place to take friends that visit and nobody has been disappointed yet. Their curry tastes unique and packs plenty of flavor! It has to be THE best curry I have ever tasted. I never get tired of coming here. Order any of the Teppan curries. The skillet makes it that much better!!!

Excellent Japanese curry spot! If you dine in, the spectacle and flavour of sizzling teppan curry can't be beat. I got the chicken breast katsu which was quite tender and certainly delicious in the egg-curry sauce. The crispy rice at the bottom of the teppan is also a delight. The only criticism is that the chicken maybe could've been brined before for flavour but that's being picky. Ordered takeout curry rice before and it was really solid, good portions!

Fumi makes a tasty teppan curry rice. When my fish katsu teppan curry $15.50 arrived, it was sizzling. The waiter poured the curry sauce on top of the iron pan activating that aromatic curry smell. If you take away the razzle dazzle of the sounds and smell of a teppan, it is still a good Chinese kitchen Japanese curry. I can't speak for the ramen though. For my teppan curry, I wish there was an option to add carrots, fukujinzuke (chopped daikon, eggplant, lotus root relish), potato, string beans or onions of the curry into the sauce like the curry houses in Tokyo. Fumi got the thick consistency of a Japanese curry correct. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. Good job waiter and kitchen staff.

The teppan curry is amazing with crispy rice and concentrated curry sauce! Could easily have been a 5 star place in Tokyo. Definitely get it one level hotter than you think. It's mild.

The best Japanese curry in the city

Fumi is perfect comfort food. Their teppan curry is absolutely the thing to get!! The hamburger (delicious mix of pork and beef) is on point. I like getting it extra spicy just to add a bit more flavor.

Best food I have ever had you must try the chicken curry rice. It‘s has to be the best on the menu! If you know you know

Not the best Japanese curry that I've ever had (though I've , been lucky to taste some straight from Japan) but definitely tasty food for the value. The dishes are very hearty and comforting. Very friendly service and comfy, clean ambiance! I'd definitely come back.

Quick and friendly service. Large space in the back for groups. Flavorless Spicy Miso Pork soup. I want to try the regular pork but am scared to spend another $20 for flavorless soup.

Their Katsu Teppan Curry are the best! We had both the Pork and the Fish ones, plus their Ramen!

Pretty good place, id go for the curry or a rice dish over the ramen but the ramen is still pretty good. Cheap sake too!

Dan Dan Noodle is flavor-packed, a rich spicy broth coating every slurp of ramen noodle. On a separate visit, the Curry Ramen was mostly on point: rich broth, chewy noodles, portion size. But as ramen’s simplicity often requires nothing short of perfection, a few minor flaws can seem bigger than what they are. Cold vegetable add-ons should have been dipped in boiling water prior to garnishing, pork katsu should have been served on bone dry plate to ensure crispiness of bottom layer. Nevertheless, despite these minor shortfalls, this cozy outpost is worth considering a neighborhood go-to, at the foot of Bernal.

It's a homey place. There aren't many Japanese places that serve curry. The pork katsu was crispy. There was egg under all the sauce too on a hot plate. The Ramen had a pork base, corn, bamboo shoots, pork belly. I added an egg for $2. I always love bamboo shoots so I wish there was more.

Decent broth, good toppings. Chashu is a touch dry and sliced very thinly. Noodles were a bit soft and floppy. Presentation was nice and the service was quick. Sides were cheap and delicious, try the garlic broccoli.

Soft shell crab was delicious. Noodle ok. Broth ok.

Review here is only for the curry, we have yet to try their other dishes. I'm a huge Japanese curry fan and it's hard to find curry specialty houses around here. Their curry isn't the best I've had, but nevertheless hits home when I want that warm comfort food. We usually get the hamburg steak - the hamburg itself is okay, pretty juicy but not the most flavorful. It's more of a patty than a real Asian hamburg steak. So overall, do I wish it was a little more authentic/tastier? Yes. But it's my best bet in SF, so I will still go if I want to eat Japanese curry.

Good atmosphere. Ordered pork cutsu curry rice. The pork is fried a little bit too much. Visited during a weekday for lunch. The restaurant was empty.

A generic ramen restaurant. The food was solid, we ordered one of the udon soups and a seaweed salad (we didn't try curries). The interior was clean, the food, prices, decor were exactly as expected. I liked the long opening hours. Nothing more, nothing less; nothing disappointed, but nothing stood out. I will come here again if I am specifically looking for Japanese food around Bernal Heights but probably not otherwise.

Fun idea to make the curry teppanyaki style. Get that camera ready as the waiter pours the sauce and the curry sizzles in your face. Unfortunately the chicken katsu was nothing amazing. I think the hot plate added a slight burnt flavor to the sauce, which I didn't prefer. You can blacken your curry for $2.50 but I wouldn't recommend it. It tastes the same and all you'll get is black teeth.
