So this really is noodle soup vending machine! You push a few buttons and your piping hot noodle soup comes out of a slot in the box a minute later. And you know what? The food is surprisingly decent! So, while I would probably rate the food quality 3 stars overall, I’m giving this experience an extra star purely for the novelty and entertainment value.

I ordered a black garlic ramen noodle soup and it was quite good! The noodles were reasonably springy and while the broth was a bit watery, it was flavored properly. The pork slices were surprisingly decent!

And at $12 per bowl, you’re not going to break the bank here!

It’s a vending machine. I ordered a Pesto Shrimp dish. It loads into an opaque window that looks like my microwave after my kids come home from school; pasted on food from whoever used it last. It actually steam it. Mine came out frozen in the middle still. Of course Aloft takes no responsibility. “It’s our business partner’s fault. Contact them”. Great excuse.
I ate a little bit that was hot from the sides. It was gross. I’m throwing it up. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!

If you arrive SFO at night there’s very little meal option, but if you stay at Aloft SFO (as well as Sheraton next door) you can have hot Ramen anytime with Yo-kai automatic cooking robot.

Arriving late at nigh, their hot soup noodle really is a life saver, and it is cooked within a minute.

The big Yo-Kai machine is located in the lobby of Aloft, where there is a generously ample lobby area with a lot of table and sofas, you can have fresh hot noodle soup right away. They have 15-20 kinds of noodles and rice dish, ranging from traditional Tonkotsu Ramen/ Shoyu Ramen to Taiwanese or Korean soup noodles, as well as rice dishes with Teriyaki chicken or pork Chasiu bowl.

They also have 2-3 plant based noodle/rice dishes if you are vegan.

You can pay with credit card or airline voucher.

The first day i arrived at the hotel, I decided to give it a try. Ordered 3 meals. The first one chicken tom yum was fine but the 2nd and 3rd beef pho and spicy kimichi ramen was frozen. I thought when i handled the bottom as instructed it was fine. When I went to my room I was disappointed. The water had partially entered the pho but didnt not cook all the way and the water never entered the spicy kimchi. I had to go back down to the hotel microwave to cook meal. Later i sent a message to the company, I did receive a comment back to refund but they wanted my credit card number. In skepticism i only gave the last 4 because there should be a way to track the transactions. Or just issue a promo. Atleast I know if it happens again I know what to do to still get a good meal out of it. But for a first transaction I feel cheated. Still waiting for the company to make it right. Plus im leaving soon so its on a timer. Please make right Yo Kai express. Sad i didn’t take pictures of food because i was disappointed but heres is something to identify the bowls. 2 STARS

The company did respond and offered vouchers. I appreciate such act. But the problem happened again. The first was fine but the second bowl did not get punctured. I just added water and microwaved it. Later I shared with company a suggestion of troubleshooting the machine. Hopefully they do. Ill update to 3 stars. The soups were all tasty. Here are new photos.

Coolness factor aside, once the machine delivered my hot bowl of soup, the machine didn’t cook the noodles long enough for them to be hot. haha. No – really. Everything was just kind of lukewarm. (I got the Pho)

Fortunately, the hotel had a weak microwave there and I had to put it in twice for 2 then 5 minutes before I was happy to call it “hot” soup.

But… once it was done? Delicious noodles and beef but the meatball was hilariously rubbery and squeaky on my teeth.

Sooooo – 3/5 – good – but only if you’re really hungry and don’t mind waiting a bit longer to heat it up.

Given that it’s a vending machine, it’s fairly decent. Veggies and meat all re-hydrated nicely. A bit pricey, but really convenient.

It is very important that you stir it and let it sit as soon as possible.

The ramen comes out cold- so go to the microwave and cook it for another minute or so. The taste is alright. This isn’t anything like the ramen machines in japan or korea. It’s pretty bland and underwhelming. But the experience is cool

The noodle soup came out lukewarm and my dumpling was frozen cold. Call the service hotline and they told me they will refund my money, but never saw the refund. Great idea if they can figure out how to execute like the Japanese machines.

I stayed at Aloft on a quick business trip and arrived late at night. Everything was closed so I gave this machine a try. I was hoping for the beef noodle soup but it was sold out. I ordered some other noodle something dish (can’t remember the exact name). Surprisingly it was pretty decent for a vending machine. The food was hot, tasty, and it hit the spot when I needed it. For the price I was very satisfied and would definitely eat again. I just wish it wasn’t sold out of so many choices. It’s worth a try when you want something quick and convenient.
