“We are vegan and went with the Spicy Miso Ramen, it didn't disappoint. One suggestion, if you want the extra spice kick, ask for their chili oil, it really amped up the ramen overall.
Our kid enjoyed the mushroom bao too.
For parking, you can get lucky by finding a street parking behind the restaurant.“

“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!“

“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!“

“1st time here, Ramen noodles were cooked to perfection and the broth was unbelievably delicious. This food was comforting and light all at once. Flavor was top tier. Servers were friendly and accommodating. Shout out to the chefs in the back! Thank you. I will be back!“

“Ambiance: a bright, clean, nicely adorned establishment, with a striking painting as a feature wall...the wait and serving staff definitely contributed to the overall ambiance... Service: as with the many other reviewers, our experience was very similar with respect to the service, as our server was knowledgeable, friendly, competent, helpful, and attentive...did I say friendly...definitely one of the elements we will take away from the evening... Food: on the recommendation of our server, who was very helpful, knowledgable, friendly, and attentive, we ordered the Takoyaki and our server's favourite Spicy Garlic Pork Shoyu Ramen x 2. The latter was described as a "spicy soy sauce tonkatsu broth with garlic is served with two slices of chashu pork, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, egg, fried onions, seaweed, green onions, and buttered corn". I absolutely love ramen, and, to me, what defines any bowl is the soup base, described by a very learned chef as "an intensely porky, opaque pale broth with a sticky-lipped intensity, with the rich, buttery texture of light cream; the best sports tiny nubbins of fat swimming around on their surface, a slick of mayu (black garlic oil) or chile-sesame paste, a handful of thin-sliced green onions, a soft-yolked soy-sauce tinged egg, and a few slices of meltingly tender chashu pork belly". The broth definitely reflected the events described, and the many hours spent in preparation, with a rich texture and flavour, complemented, but not over-powered by either the chili nor the garlic. It was a wonderful recommendation that we would order again! All in all, the evening that left us very satisfied in terms of having our hunger sated, and taste buds quite happy... the true test is whether we return, and, should we find ourselves back in the city, we would most definitely make a return trip to try other dishes!!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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🔥“

She let me know that it was self seating.I've never been to a ramyun place and honestly, I would recommend it. I got everything. The waitress recommended the rice cakes and a bowl of creamy ramyun with pork belly. It was so good the broth is very delicious and the seasonings were all perfect.I would definitely be coming back here“

“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“

“I couldn't be happier with the service and the quality of food as well as the cleanliness and open air atmosphere with all their gorgeous and delicious selections prepared at a central kitchen within view of every table.
Thanks to our server and bartender for their intimate attentiveness and suggestions.
I was so enamored with the food that I didn't take any more photos after the salad! Guess I'll have to go back and take plenty more...“

“Awesome little neighborhood place that is open late and has a great happy hour. The staff is so sweet and friendly every time. Millennial nostalgia J-pop being played at a REASONABLE volume makes for a cozy vibe. The ramen is tasty and they do interesting collaborations with other restaurants sometimes. Portions are generous so you feel like you're getting good value for your dollar.“

“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.“

“The food is delicious!!! The broth for the beef ramen is so flavorful and the gyoza are perfectly cooked! The drinks and water are refreshing. The service is great! Very kind and polite. As a anime watcher, I love the atmosphere, the lights and anime posters with the music make it very enjoyable to be there.“
