Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen is amazing. Authentic and great. You wouldn't think the place is this good from the outside. Highly recommend.

1st timer visiting the bestie. Was in need of some really good soup for losing my voice and found this gem!Since 1994 was all I kept seeing and let’s say that broth proved why they have been around for so long! DELICIOUS broth!GLUTEN FREE noodles - rice noodles. Ordered two different ramens gluten free to go and enjoyed a hot green tea while I waited.PARKING IS TERRIBLE - it’s a small lot and very hard to park but hopefully you find a spot.The ramen is worth it.Opens at 5pm - could get packed.

Cozy ramen spot located in a strip mall. Came here when it was raining and having some ramen hit the spot. I ordered the spicy ramen and had enough for leftovers the following day as it was quite filling. It came with three pieces of chashu. There were sauces on the table so you could customize the broth further. The noodles had a firm texture and the broth was well-mixed. Credit cards accepted. There’s some parking available in the front as well as metered street parking. Indoor dining only.

My all time favorite ramen place in LA, love coming here every time I visit California because I know it will not disappoint. The broth is very rich in flavor and the chicken is absolutely delicious compared to other places. I love getting the Kimino’s each time and the service never disappoints.

AMAZING place. We ordered shrimp fried rice and it was hands down the best fried rice I've ever had. The place was clean and the lady at the counter was so sweet and helped up find the vegetarian options on the menu.10/10 would come again. Thank you!

Really good ramen. I’ve had my fair share of ramen around the world and while I usually like it most of the time here the service made the difference. They were friendly genuinely checked in if everything tastes good etc.Like most of the time, also here the value to money is definitely good.
Don’t really see what the big deal is. Way better ramen elsewhere. Eggs overcooked, brother mediocre, just not very high quality. Air ducts covered in black dust. Yuck.

I am LAAAAAATE to this party but so glad I made it.Simple, authentic, clean, friendly, fast, and flavorful.The food and ambience were both great, and I'm a devout takeout girl.As long as they keep the soul jams jamming and the beer flowing, I'll visit again and again! And a few takeout visits in-between ; )

I decided to try this place out as it was one of the only top rated places around the hotel I was staying at. It did not disappoint and was pretty tasty! I ordered the spicy tonkotsu (which was not very spicy) and the jumbo gyoza. I wish the ramen was a little more spicy but I thought the noodles, the broth, and the add ins where very tasty. The jumbo gyoza was pretty good too.The restaurant itself is on the smaller side with tables close together and very limited seating. They make the food fairly quickly though and turn over of customers seems fast enough that wait times might not be too bad if they are not too busy. They had a ton of to go orders coming through, so that's an option as well. There is a parking lot, but it was super crowded when I showed up, but it was only a five minute walk from my hotel. Also, there is a service charge of you use a credit card that can be avoided by using a debit card or cash. Overall, I might come back for the gyoza if I'm around here again.

If you want to stand in line for hours to be served by the rudest people on earth for the most mediocre bowl of ramen then come hereAbsolute worst service, the owners of this place are horrible.. Don't come here
I had a terrific bowl of Ramen (Tonkotsu Soy Sauce) and everyone was extremely friendly. I'll definitely be back.
