Daikokuya El Monte Reviews
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.
Excellent flavor. Very impressed.
I would have given it five star if the service was good. The ramen noodle was tasty. The setting is nice. But the service was so so. We were in the middle of eating our ramens and there was still one roll left on the plate, but the waitress came and took the plate without even asking whether we were done with the roll. Not sure why she would do that.
