Butaton Ramen - Orange

This is like many ramen places, only the quality of the food is higher. Just beware that it may be louder than some restaurants.

I had the shoyu ramen for lunch (without spinach, seaweed and shoots). The broth was light but tasty, the noodles chewy and slightly el dente. The pork was torched on surface for extra texture, cooked well and not dry. Two slices were just right to be filling.

I had the lychee sorbet for dessert and it was such an amazing palate cleanser with a refreshingly sweet taste and almost gelato level creamy texture. Enjoyed my entire meal. Will visit again.

As lovers of Ramen, my son and I tried Butaton Ramen for the first time today. We ordered the Tonkotsu and the Butaton Ramen, plus a Beef Bowl and the Mini Salads. Everything was absolutely incredible, but the sesame salad dressing was beyond belief in flavor. Suffice it to say I strongly considered ordering extra sesame dressing to just eat (YES, it IS THAT GOOD)!!!!! The food is fresh, beautifully prepared and presented and most importantly STELLAR. We will definitely be returning as often as we can to try other items and, OF COURSE the mini salad!!!!! JAMES was our server (also part owner) and wonderfully welcoming and helpful. The ambiance is peaceful and relaxing, and the decor is simple elegance. Thanks JAMES, can’t wait to see you again soon.

Came here on Thursday for lunch. First time here.

Got the Butaton Ramen and lunch special. The rice, beef, and salad were nice for the price and tasted good.

When the ramen came I was surprised by how big the chashu was and how big the bowl was. Both are bigger than this other Ramen place I go to.

I loved the chashu. Very tasty. Well done but still tender. Just the way I like it

The noodles are softer than I would have expected but not complaining. I actually enjoyed the noodle texture very much. I've had chewier noodles before, but I liked the softer texture very much too.

The broth was very hot. And mid spicy.

While I enjoy the broth. In my opinion, the flavor and richness of the broth was not as great as this other ramen place I've been to. It did not ruin the meal but was a downer. Maybe I'll try another flavor next time.

The service was top tier. My waiter was excellent and attentive when I was ready to order food and drink without disturbing me while I ate.

Was not expecting such good service. The waiter exceeded my expectations. I kicked myself because I forgot his name.

I like how roomy the dining area is for both single diners and groups. I felt comfortable in my seat.

Overall good experience with food, service, and seating.

A bit expensive. But I will be back.

This place is my new favorite ramen spot. Moved here from LA (Sawtelle) a year ago and after many Ramen tastings this was definitely above and beyond anything I have found in OC. Highly recommend for the delicious spicy Tsukemen and this place for the customers, authentic ramen atmosphere.

Excellent ramen spot! The broth is rich and balanced, noodles are super fresh and chewy, and the chashuu is incredibly savory. Definitely coming back.

Kid-friendliness: The atmosphere is unstuffy and bustling. They offer high chairs.
