HiroNori Craft Ramen Reviews
Melt-in-your-mouth food! Exactly what we were looking to have.
Great food and excellent service
This was one of the best ramen spots we tried during our Long Beach trip.
The tonkotsu ramen had a rich, creamy broth that wasn’t overly salty, and the noodles had a great texture. The chashu was tender and flavorful, and every bite felt well balanced. The pork rice bowl was just as good and is worth ordering if you’re hungry.
The restaurant is clean, modern, and has a relaxed atmosphere. Service was friendly, and the food came out quickly even though...read full review

HiroNori Craft Ramen is a cozy and welcoming go-to spot, known for its incredible staff and management that provide excellent service with positive energy. The restaurant serves amazing ramen, with a rich, creamy, decadent broth that feels like silk alongside tender, tasty noodles. Specific bowls highlighted include the Shoyu Ramen, with its clean, savory, and balanced broth, and the Tonkotsu Ramen, which features a delicious, piping hot soup. The Vegan Soup is also noted as a fantastic and carefully made option. While the Tonkatsu Ramen is considered comforting but more middle-of-the-road, the overall food is consistently solid and delicious.
The menu also features enjoyable appetizers and sides. The pork buns are soft and fresh with nicely seasoned pork, and the crispy rice with spicy tuna is a unique and standout item. Other options include gyozas and crispy chicken. A major highlight for many is the hot sauce served on the side, celebrated as arguably the best in the region. This hot sauce adds excellent boldness, balance, and flavorful umami, perfectly complementing the noodles, soup, or side dishes without overpowering them.
The ambiance is often bustling and packed, especially during peak times, with waits for a table sometimes exceeding thirty minutes. While the menu could offer more options, and there have been occasional oversights with takeout orders, the overall experience remains great. For those seeking a comforting bowl of ramen with an exceptional condiment, HiroNori Craft Ramen delivers a top-notch and memorable meal.
