Ramen Restaurants near Alhambra, CA

“Their popcorn chicken ramen is delicious.
Silky pork broth, the heat from the chilli and the hot chicken is going to make you sweat. If you say spicy, it's going to be spicy!!!
Love this place. Especially on a rainy day (which here, aren't many 😐).“

“Didn't get the ramen but got the beef and spicy pork rice bowls. Both were absolutely on point, especially with a bit of their in-house Chili Paste. Good portion as well.

Skip the small chiasiu bowl tho, pretty mid.

Service was attentive and friendly!“

“Very well run and maitained. The Ramen choices are delicious with lots of options. Try the spicy chicken sandwich too!!“

“Saw Kopan sushi & ramen in burbank and realized there was one in Alhambra so i came to try it and was not disappointed! The dining area is very neat and servers are very attentive. Chefs are really quick with sushi and food orders overall 5 well earned stars definitely recommend!“

“It's pretty dark and loud inside during dinner. Even during the day, it can be loud and you have to speak up to hear across the table. Food is tasty but can come out show during lunch or dinner rush. I like their pass around family style rolls meal option for ordering. It does it a little pricey, but I think the portion and fish-to-rice ratio is great. Definitely take advantage of the happy hour deals!“

“Their recipes are undefeated“

“I loved the vegan broth options! Glad we could find a place that has more vegan friendly broth and toppings! Our server Jeraldine was awesome and she took care of our complicated order due to our food allergies! We will be back again!“

“Delicious! Can’t wait to go back.“

“Really good ramen! All of their sides are delicious, but the shishito peppers are a must-try. I also love that they have both vegan and non-vegan options, so there's something for everyone. The staff is super friendly and made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend!“

“A friend recommended Menya Hanabi to me, and this was my first time trying mazesoba, which is basically brothless ramen.

I ordered the Deluxe Mazesoba, which comes with chashu and a hard-boiled egg. I really liked the deluxe version because it felt more filling and had a good amount of protein from the minced pork, chashu, and poached egg. The bowl had a lot of flavor, and I ended up finishing the whole thing, so I didn't even get a chance to try the free scoop of rice at the end.

The mazesoba was a bit on the salty side, but it wasn't something that bothered me. The seaweed and fish powder added extra depth and helped give the bowl more variety, while the green onions added a nice texture and freshness.

I came on a Wednesday night and didn't have to wait at all, which was a plus. Overall, I enjoyed my first mazesoba experience here and could definitely see myself coming back whenever I'm in the area.“

“Love their selections of foods not too much not less just right and not complicated. My tummy is full and happy soul 😊“

“Foods are good & service needs to improve. Myself & friends are first time to attend this Ramen place, overall we like the food & will go back!!“

“A hidden gem in Montrose. Very good food, attentive service, reasonable price.“

“cause they doooopppe ya heard ?“

“My friend and I came to DTLA Ramen late Monday afternoon in order to wait out the traffic and have an early dinner, and lucky for us, we got in on the last hour of Happy Hour (weekdays 3pm-6pm), so we got $2 off our Ramen and $1 off our salted Edamame.

The Edamame was pretty good, although not too out of the ordinary even with the salt.

Our Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen, however, was savory, albeit not that spicy even though my friend got the Spicy (she rated it 4/10 in spiciness) ) and I got the Extra Spicy (6/10 in spiciness). So if you love it even hotter, don't be afraid to ask for even more heat.

The Chashu pork slices were nicely thick and charred, soaking up the broth while maintaining just enough crispiness. Both the broth and the noodle were also thick and delicious, giving you plenty of flavor with every slurp.

If there was something I felt lacking, it would be to have a bit more flair to the taste, since everything is a little one note and not a lot of depth and texture in the flavor. But that's OK, it was tasty as it was so we still ended up satisfied!“

“The food and service is a 10! we will be back when in town. I'd come from Montana just to eat here it's that good“

“Solid ramen, sushi and other dishes. Good portions as well. Service was efficient though a bit impersonal...but as long as my water is getting refilled before having to ask, etc. I can do without friendliness. I'm 99% positive my mom and I had been to the Montrose location a few years back and had a very positive experience as well. Definitely would go back to either location. We went on Saturday of Mother's Day weekend for a later lunch with a group of 6 and there was no wait.“

“ABSOLUTELY the BEST ramen I have ever had!!! The service is amazing, the fried pumpkin... off the hook!!! Spring rolls, yaaasssss!! I had the King Ramen...whoaaaaa! Daaaaammnnn!! You will NOT be disappointed. Thanks to the owners for the great experience.“

“สนุกสนานอาหารอร่อย บรรยากาศดีมีระดับ“

“Loved this place! The ramen was rich and flavorful without being too heavy, and the yakitori was perfectly grilled with a nice smoky flavor. Everything tasted fresh and well-balanced. The atmosphere was cozy, the service was friendly, and you can really tell they care about the quality of the food. I’ll definitely be back to try more dishes!“

“Can't wait to go back and try more ramen. Enjoyed the Chicken Curry ramen.“

“very delicious👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“They have great lunch specials for both ramen and sushi! Plus validated parking, which is rare in Hollywood, on the Eastown property!“

“Food was great. Got the Max (extra thick) soup and it's like gravy. The flavor is unlike any other ramen I've tried. I'm a little sensitive to salt, so like most restaurants, it's a little salty for me. Washed it down with some cheese bread and still had to lick the bowl dry.
It's fun watching the World Cup on their numerous, large TVs. As usual, traffic is a pain in the area, but at least they have a large and comparatively cheaper parking lot right behind them.“

“love it nice clean, food is great I will eating there again“

“Their Tan Tan Men Ramen are the best! I love how I have the opportunity to customize our ground meat choices (I.e. ground pork or ground chicken). Topped with nori, baby bok choy, bean sprouts, hard-boiled egg, and ground meat, the ramen have the perfect flavor. Their chicken karaage were the best too!“

“I was a JA kid in the 80s and 90s. After CYC basketball games and Tamiya Mini 4WD races, my family would head to the third floor of Yaohan and enjoy the great flavors of Hana-Ichimonme. This was, hands down the best ramen in downtown back then, and I can't wait to taste it once this pandemic is over. Okaerinasai!“

“Yummy 😋 Ramen noodles and good 🍶 Sake. 🍜. Funny, I spoke Japanese to the cooks saying thank you for the meal and when they turned to look I saw they were Mexiconos! 😂 Good cooks though! Gracias carnales. Reasonable prices for the area in authentic ambiance :-)“

“Whenever we feel lazy driving to Little Tokyo for some authentic tasting ramen, R101 in Glendale has been our go to. We first discovered this restaurant through online ordering during the start of the Covid pandemic. Every time we ordered here since then, the food and service have always been consistent. I highly recommend this place to get your ramen fix. No other ramen place in Glendale can taste as good as this!“

“la comida mui rica el servicio excelente lo recomiendo 💯%👌👍“

“This is one of our go to Ramen places in San Diego, we love it! Our kids love it for the free ice cream at the end!“

“Awesome place to eat Ramen“

“Daikokuya Annex is a convenient little stop in Little Tokyo, especially when the main Daikokuya next door has a long wait. The Annex is more casual and quick-service focused, with ramen, rice bowls, and Onigiri Sun operating inside. The official listing describes it as Daikokuya’s takeout-oriented location, while Onigiri Sun serves handmade rice balls using Japanese rice and seaweed.

The setup almost feels like it could also function as a prep or production space for the larger operation, although I could not confirm whether it is officially their central kitchen. If they are able to prepare some of Daikokuya’s soup or other items here while also running a separate quick-service business, that would honestly be a very smart use of the space.

The onigiri itself was good, but unfortunately I forgot to take a picture before eating it. There are quite a few filling options, and it works well as either a snack or a quick, simple meal. The service was fast and straightforward, which is exactly what I wanted at the time.

This is probably not the place I would choose for the full Daikokuya ramen experience, but it is a very practical option when you do not want to wait in the line next door. Four stars for convenience, quick service, and a smart concept.“

“Yum! I loved the service, the food, friends and atmosphere.“

“Let me just start off by saying the service here it’s outstanding!! It was my first time trying ramen and the cashier was very friendly and helped me with choosing my first meal. The food was very tasty and fresh! I will definitely come back again!“

“Amazing food!!! The chasu bowl is so good!!! The staff is so nice . You can taste the care of the workers in the food!! Parking isn’t decent. We always found parking pretty close but it’s in the same parking lot as Trader Joe’s“

“my new update at kai ramen today, was not too busy like before i went there, we try another ramen and not disappointed, the waiter very nice and attentive, nice vibe with anime on the wall, definitely will coming back again, thanks Kai ramen

The Staff was so friendly and welcoming we came dine in last night around 9 pm, explaining all the ingredients used in their food and letting us know about special items on their menu even they’re so busy last night , we’re very satisfied with their food and service ,“

“Very small Ramen restaurant. The Daikokuya Ramen with fried rice is delicious. Edemame was lightly salted and really. I noticed a lot of to go orders, so it is a local favorite.“

“Cool place. We sat at a table that looked like it was framed in a sake bottle. Plenty of parking. The ramen broth was tasty. Had a lemonade and at half sweetness was perfectly sweet. Lots a food and drink choices. The desserts looked really good, but I was too full. Can't wait to come back and try something else.“

“I ordered for the first time from this place tonight via Uber Eats, and I got the chicken yakisoba. It was amazinggg. I was able to customize my order... It was a great portion, the noodles tasted fresh, the veggies were cooked well, and the chicken was seasoned really good. I choose the medium spicy level which was perfect. I will be ordering again🔥“

“Quality food & service at reasonable prices 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Great rolls. Big selection.... fresh.“

“Very good customer service and vibes I love the decorations and how clean it is. The ramen and potstickers were very filling and definitely worth trying. I keep coming back for the spicy tonkatsu ramen but the sushi was not very good especially for the price...

Another complaint I have is the chopsticks feel very cheap and hard to work with plus $2.50 for a can of coke isn't really something to look forward to with your meal

P.S. I'll definitely be back but I felt the need to give an honest review“

“Really good birria crispy tacos👌“

“Ordered the tsukeman ramen, jiro ramen, and karaage. Food came out great. Staff was very attentive and happy to help with the menu and explain anything we don't know. They suggested I add a dashi broth to my dipping sauce after I'm done with the noodle. Great recommendation.“

“I love coming here ,the service is amazing ,the old gentlemen that works there is always so lovely.And the food is always the same quality doesn't matter the day or time.I love their ramen and shrimp tempura.My boyfriend doesn't really eat ,but this man always finishes their sushi . But i really like coming here they make you feel at home .So if your in the mood for sushi or ramen i really recommend this spot!“

“The Daikokuya ramen is soo delicious and very filling.“

“It was very nice. Loved the hellos and thank you for coming. I can’t wait to come back next time I visit the area.“

“Good food, portions & service...“
