Killer Noodle Tsujita

I went Saturday 11/8/2025 at 940 pm. I had the absolute worst experience ever from this place. The usual friendly server, young man with the glasses and typically wearing a beanie was nowhere to be found. I was instead looked at with annoyance from the waiting staff. They kept looking at their watches and saying we close at 1030 amongst themselves. Finally got seated but only to be rushed and ignored throughout our dining experience. Our waitress couldn’t be bothered to get us utensils that we asked for multiple times! We then asked the gentleman who brought our food, and he in turn told the same waitress who kept ignoring us. She seemed more interested in chatting with the other staff members. Definitely will not be going back any time soon.

The food here is really good, but the staff behavior needs improvement. One of the staff members gave me the wrong order and then insisted on a tip, even asking for cash specifically. It felt very uncomfortable and unprofessional. Management should look into this — great food deserves better service!

After having ramen at the annex with a friend we came here a few days later with more people. This a great place to come with even 5 or more people. The seating isn’t cramped and the staff is super helpful and friendly.

Staff is pretty rude. They mis guided us on the phone saying they'll take orders till 10pm for people inside but the door closes at 9:45pm. We were there at 9:44pm, we drove from 40 mins away because they said this and out eta was 9:40. Why say times you can't honour?

Food was good, I find it very interesting how pronounced the sesame flavor is with the ramen I ordered

Loved it here! Brilliant food and super nice staff. Thank you guys, and thanks also for my t shirt for eating your insanely spicy dish 👍

Cool restaurant set up. Very polite and knowledgeable staff. Extremely fast service. Decent prices. But most importantly, the only place in the United States I have been able to find peanut butter ramen. And it is delicious! Authentic with an LA twist. I go here every time I visit California.

Terrible experience. Severely understaffed. Low-quality and overpriced food. Plates and utensils are incredibly dirty. Avoid at all costs.

I ordered the tantanmen with soup at Killer Noodle Tsujita, and it was a fantastic experience. The broth struck a great balance between heat and flavor spicy enough to excite the palate but still full of depth and umami. The roasted notes of peanuts and garlic added richness and aroma, giving the dish a wonderful complexity that made me want to return right away. One of the best features here is the ability to adjust the spice level on a six-point scale, ranging from mild to extremely fiery, so everyone can find their comfort zone. In addition, they offer vegetarian-friendly options, making the restaurant accessible to a wider range of guests.

The interior is bold with its red décor, creating a lively and energetic feel. The dining area is fairly spacious, though some seating shows signs of wear, such as torn upholstery, which was slightly disappointing. Still, the overall atmosphere is casual and approachable, and it feels perfectly comfortable for solo diners you can sit at the counter and enjoy your noodles without any fuss.

Overall, Killer Noodle Tsujita is absolutely worth visiting when you crave tantanmen in Los Angeles. With its flavorful broth, customizable spice levels, vegetarian choices, and relaxed setting, it’s a spot I will gladly return to.

Crowded on a Saturday evening. Good service. Downtown DanDan was average...a bit was too spicy for a standard level 3. The other dish that we ordered was similar, Downtown DanDan dry noodles, too spicy 🔥🥵
