“Kai Ramen absolutely hit the spot. The broth was rich and flavorful, the noodles were perfectly cooked, and everything tasted fresh and authentic. The portions were generous, the atmosphere was cozy, and the service was friendly and fast. You can tell they really care about quality here. Definitely one of those places that makes you start planning your next visit before you even leave!
Pro tip: add an extra egg and get a side of gyoza; perfect combo with the ramen!“

“I dare say that I have a lot of experience in ramen, I recommend this place,delicious rich fatty broth,wonderful noodles, I would say 9/10, just because the small pieces of meat and in my opinion they are undercooked to the right condition to melt in your mouth.Otherwise, it's a very decent place with good service.“

“i have been coming here at least once or twice a month for more than a year now and they never fail me..
their Kuromayu ramen is amazing…
the broth is unmatched even by daikokuya in little tokyo. the noodles is about average but the soup and the pork is so delicious they more than make up for the noodles shortcomings…
the staff is very polite and friendly, service is fast.
friendly , cozy atmosphere, ample parking…
yesterday it was freakin’ hot and to quench the heat , i got ramen 🤣
that’s how i roll.“

“Really good spot when you want sushi and ramen without having to pick one or the other. The menu has a lot of solid options, so it works well if one person wants ramen, someone else wants rolls, and everyone wants to share a few small plates. The place has a cozy feel, and it’s nice for a casual dinner without feeling too loud or rushed. I like that there’s enough variety to come back and try something different each time. Good food, good vibe, and definitely a solid Encino stop on Ventura.“

“Server was excellent, friendly and very attentive. Food was light, clean and fresh. Had the Miso Chashu Ramen + gyoza dumpling combo. Lots of lean soft meat. Broth was light with lots of green onion. Gyoza was crispy and light. Restaurant was very clean and had a calm atmosphere.“

“One of the very few spots that have high standards for the food. It's good eats and good vibes. I recommend trying some of the appetizers because they make them fresh and with good quality despite being the 'side'. Especially the Takoyaki, they did not have to make em that good.“

“My kids were raving about this place and they finally invited me to try this location. So naturally, I ordered their best items on the menu. We ordered the chicken pieces as an appetizer and we all chose a bowl of ramen. I ordered the beef broth truffle soup with an extra side of pork belly. The appetizer and the special sauce was delicious and the Ramen was amazing. As a big fan of Phó, this place was really good. Next time we come in, I will order the chicken broth. The only reason it didn't get a 5 star review was because of what management said to us as we dined. One of the people in our party did not have soup, they had a sandwich from the restaurant next door. Management came to our table and said that they didn't allow outside food to be eaten in their restaurant. With multiple restaurants located in this shopping center and No signs posted anywhere, I think this policy should be re-evaluated. Between the 3 of us eating Ramen, the bill was almost $84 with a tip. I think for the location being so close to other choices of food and the price, my family should be able to enjoy dinner together. I hope they change this policy in the near future.“

“Flavorful and delicious! A hidden gem for Japanese cuisine in the valley. We all enjoyed the takoyaki. The Futaba (tonkatsu) ramen and (especially) the black garlic tonkatsu ramen are so good! Someone also had the chicken katsu curry and would recommend it. Great service and also very dog friendly on the patio.“

“Great prices & happy hours. All day every Mon-Thurs get 1 specialty roll get 1 50% off and I became a regular customer here ever since the 1st time I tried it. I love the way it's decorated inside and the music is great! I've heard them play Bryson Tiller, Sza, Chris Brown (old & new), Pitbull, Nicki Minaj, etc! Its a great vibe here, the servers are very kind & accommodating. I've also almost tried half their menu if not most of it by now. Some of the best ramen I've had & I love how it's customizable. If you enjoy baked rolls I highly recommend the Sapporo roll & if you prefer fresh the snow white is fantastic too! I was skeptical about the jalapeño poppers, but they're actually SO good coming from someone who isn't a fan of most jalapeño poppers. Overall, the food is very tasty, its a great place that is open late with good deals & prices, and has a rewards program through toast as well!“

“These new owners have made a beautiful sushi bar/restaurant/menu. I have been to this restaurant 4 times now for lunch. Their service has made me feel valued and special each time... Friendly and timely. The ambiance is beautiful and it feels very clean when you walk in. The sushi is SO FRESH, even mid-week, and the special cut rolls are very artistic and delicious. I very much love the no rice rolls selection, and the Chef accommodated me by making a no rice spider roll that wasn't on the menu... Mmmm, Mmmm! I'm bringing friends upon my next visit (Sat. Aug. 2, 2025).“

“I finally tried Silverlake Ramen at the Porter Ranch Vineyards, and I enjoyed every moment of it. I’ve heard about Silverlake Ramen for years, so I was excited when they opened one so close to my house. I don’t remember the exact name of my order, but it was a chicken-based broth and I chose tofu as my protein (you can pick chicken, pork, or tofu). Seriously—YUM. The noodles were cooked to perfection, the toppings were just the right amount, and I completely got lost in that broth.
Everything was fairly priced, delicious, and the service was attentive and genuinely upbeat. I’m absolutely going back. We also tried a couple of appetizers—the gyoza and the crispy rice with spicy tuna—and both were great!“

“My wife and I love sushi. We enjoy Katsuya and Nobu and many other fine establishments. We stopped going to these places (at a risk of sounding old) because of the the noise, the attitude, the kids screaming and have discovered this amazing gem in Encino - walking distance from our home.
Sushi - fresh and A++
Rolls - Creative and huge!
Wine - best pour I have ever seen.
Reasonable corkage
Best salmon ever
It's a quiet place - under control - a relaxed atmosphere - friendly staff and helpful chefs. Most importantly - Incredible sushi and more - a very extensive menu.
Check it out - it is a 5 star dining experience. Not fancy - but delicious.“
