Kiseki

Really good ramen! I got the spicy miso ramen which was really good. It was spicy but not overwhelmingly so, and there was a good depth of flavor. However, the other member of my party got the veggie tempura coconut curry ramen which was exceptional! Really really tasty. We also got sushi which was also good!Staff were helpful, and they decorated a bit for the holidays which was exciting! Noise wasn't too bad for a Friday night.

I recently visited a sushi place in Livermore, CA, and my experience was a mix of highs and lows, leading me to give it a 3 out of 5. The fried pork was disappointing, as it had a noticeable taste of old oil, which really affected the overall flavor. The Japanese curry didn't impress either, featuring what seemed like frozen cut-up vegetables that lacked freshness and texture.On a positive note, the highlight of the meal was the fried chicken. Despite the lingering oil flavor, it had a great crunch and was well-seasoned, making it enjoyable. Overall, while there were some standout elements, the quality of certain dishes left much to be desired.

Had a quick lunch here at Kiseki one weekday afternoon. Just a quick in and out: I had their Potato Croquet and Mayu Ramen. Food came fairly quickly with the croquet coming in first. It was pleasantly delicious, with a nice crunchy outside and soft creamy potato inside. Served with a salad, it was a good appetizer for the ramen.The Mayu Ramen though, was just alright. Chasiu pork was good the the broth could use a little more spruce. Not much of the garlic flavor and needed some egg which my ramen did not have.

I've been here a couple times for lunch and dinner. Lunch: I picked one of their ramens and the broth was delicious. The pork had a nice char to it, you could really taste like that flame broiled taste. Dinner: -Okonomiyaki - not the best I've had but does in a pinch.-Japanese curry w/shrimp tempura - the curry could've been warmer in temperature. the curry flavor was a bit on the light side, and I could tell by the color too. I like my curry packed with flavor and this was lacking a bit. The shrimp tempura was tasty. I had to ask for the tempura sauce, and that was much better. -Japanese curry w/chicken katsu - the chicken katsu was crunchy, but the flavor was a bit bland for me. Had to ask for the katsu sauce on the side and that seemed to help w/the flavoring. Service during lunch was better in that our waters were refilled without asking and server came around just the right amount of times. W/the water re-fills, allowed the opportunity to ask for other things needed. Same server during dinner, same amount of customers as lunch, and the service wasn't that great and not checked on, waters not refilled. Took a lot of our food to-go and had quite a few containers, but also had to ask for a bag. Overall, I'd come back for the ramen.

Had a nice dinner at Kiseki while in town for sports with my son. We ordered the Spicy Miso Ramen, mixed Tempura, and two sushi rolls (Kiseki Roll and another similar one). There was plenty of food, and overall, it was a good experience.The ramen had great flavor, though the chashu wasn't the most appetizing. The tempura was a bit on the soggy side, but still tasty. The sushi, however, was excellent--beautifully presented and fresh, with no complaints.Service was friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere was nice, though surprisingly empty for a Saturday night.

Called in to see if they have any sushi trays and they said yes, but it's really you ordering the individual rolls and they can put it in the aluminum party trays. I was expecting the big black round trays, but that's ok. Yuko who answered the phone was really sweet and nice. She said if it's for a big party, we can order how ever many rolls and receive 10% off. I came to pick up during their dinner time which opens again at 4:30pm. It was not busy. I was greeted immediately and taken care of. Service and staff were great! The sushi rolls were pretty pricey with no half off discount. But that was expected being in Livermore. I would return if I'm in the area again! Thanks Yuko and team!

Kiseki is my favorite Japanese restaurant in Livermore!The restaurant is located in a strip mall in Springtown with plentiful parking. I love the variety of Japanese dishes they offer. Sushi, ramen, curry - whatever you're craving, you can order it here! Their ramen is delicious - it's super flavorful with a rich broth. The spicy miso ramen is my favorite. Their sushi is also top notch and the portion sizes are generous. Finally, the service is always great. I appreciate the attentive staff and efficient service!

We've been to Kiseki a few times now and each time we've had a different experience. The service, while generally good, leaves something to be missed. There's only two ladies running the restaurant - regardless if there's only a couple guests or a full restaurant. It's easy for them to overlook your table and forget to stop by. It's also tough when they first take orders from tables that came after you, so your order goes to the kitchen last. Finally, the order with which they bring out the dishes is not consistent. Sometimes we get our starter first and have time to enjoy that before mains come out. Sometimes they bring everything out all at once and you don't get to enjoy each item as much.My favorite thing that brings us back is that the sushi has been consistently awesome. It's fresh with great flavor, and the presentation is fantastic. 5/5 for the sushi. Most of their other menu items have been a hit or miss for us. The teriyaki chicken isn't coated in teriyaki sauce, they only give sauce on the side so the teriyaki flavor is an afterthought. The miso and mayu ramen lack all flavor. Also I can't fathom that they charge $3 additional for one soft-boiled egg. The chicken katsu rice plate tastes good but was so overfilled that the sauce was spilling over the edge of the plate. On our most recent visit, our go-to garlic edamame was mostly oil and hardly any garlic. I would say Kiseki is a must-visit for the sushi alone. The other dishes you can get tastier elsewhere. Kiseki is a bit pricey, so it's underwhelming paying a lot for a meal you're not fully satisfied with.

The ramen was okay, but not great. The broth was heavy and salty. But the main disappointment was the chicken karaage, which seemed like oven-heated frozen nuggets. The quantity was large, but I was hoping for something tender and juicy.

Originally went here a couple months ago for a Yelp event, but decided to come back and try non-curated items on their menu. We came here per the recommendation of a coworker who LOVED the veggie tempura ramen, so everyone in our party got a ramen to try it. We also ordered some tempura vegetables on the side.First of all, service and ambiance in here is great! I've said this in previous reviews, but my service metric is if the tables water glasses are kept full, and they were. Food was delivered quickly after ordering, and let me just say: DELICIOUS. Tempura vegetables are large, so i love when I can bite into them and it comes off in clean bites, and this one did. Easy to eat without having to shove the whole thing in your mouth. The ramen was delicious. Well sized portions and not over priced ($13 to $18 per bowl depending on what you order). I personally ordered the Shio Ramen which was delicious- they accidentally used the wrong type of broth, but were super apologetic and gave me free sides to compensate.Highly recommend it here!
