Ramen Restaurants near Orange, CA

“very tasty ramen n rolls, they came out fast, friendly waiters, totally recommend 10/10“

“Waited approximately one hour to be seated. Spoiker: it was well worth that wait. I ordered the tonkatsu ramen and pork buns. I can't decide which part was better, the noodles or the broth! The pork buns were priced just right at $8 for 2. Some of the best I've had. You are all so lucky to have such a wonderful ramen bar in your community. I am from Maine and will be sure to stop by this establishment every chance I get once I am in town.“

“had the butaton Ramen, very very good! 1st time here, I definitely will be coming back!“

“This place usually has a line, but if you go early enough of during off peak hours you'll be served quickly and efficiently.
The staff are always friendly and the quality of the food is very consistent.
My wife picked up the vegan yasai ramen which is a ginger mushroom broth base, while I ordered the standard spicy tonkotsu.
If you come during lunch their $1 special is an incredible deal, if you come after lunch then their other add on deals are still definitely worth it!
We shared an additional rainbow roll which was an assortment of their salmon, tuna and or yellow tail with a crab combination. A great deal and option if you wanted to try all their fish.
The ambiance is very nice and easy going, a small quaint space with lines and tables moving quickly even if you're outside waiting. Definitely a worth while spot if you're looking for sushi or ramen!“

“Yoshiharu Ramen in Anaheim totally lives up to its rep as a top spot for authentic Hokkaido-style ramen! I ordered the Black Tonkatsu Ramen, and wow, it was a flavor bomb—rich, garlicky broth with that perfect umami kick, paired with tender pork and perfectly cooked noodles. The vibe here feels like a nod to Japan’s ramen history, from the Meiji Period roots to Tokyo’s iconic Rairaiken. You can tell they’re serious about their craft, just like their #1 OC Register rating suggests. If you’re in Anaheim and craving legit ramen, this place is a must-visit!“

“I ordered takeout from this sushi restaurant and was really impressed. The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented—even for to-go. The staff were super friendly and helpful, making the whole ordering process easy and pleasant. My food arrived quickly and still felt fresh, which made the experience even better. Definitely a place I would return to and recommend to others.“

“Service was amazing! The waitress was so nice and reminded us about the deal when we were so close to it, thank you. And the food was really good for the price. Honestly, didn't have much expectations but it was really good for such a small place.“

“Best Raman in United States hands down!!! Make sure u add Black garlic and hot spicy sauce“

“Just discovered Aburi, had a great experience all around.. their staff, food, and atmosphere were all top notch. Adding this to our go-to lunch spots. Oh, and great value (prices/specials) too! Give it a shot if you’re looking for a new sushi spot in HB.“

“This place is incredible!! The broth is so flavorful and the karaage is hands down the best I've ever had - it melts in your mouth like toro!!! I've eaten at many ramen spots in and out of Japan, and this is the real deal - authentic, delicious, fresh meals cooked with love and skill! Domo arigato gozaimasu!!

Parking: Going just past the restaurant there's a large open parking lot.“

“I came here on a cloudy Sunday and was immediately greeted and got a seat right away. I ordered the deluxe mazemen with the pork belly and it was delicious mixture of different savory textures and flavors. I definitely liked it more after adding a bit of the white vinegar to cut through some of the richness. I also had the yuzu sour, which if you know me, I love the yuzu like waking up and having no work that day. The yuzu sour was refreshing, not too sweet, and tasted like one of the bottled yuzu sodas out there. If I'm in the area after hitting some golf balls I'll come back.“

“It was yummy and fast. Everything was fresh and clean“

“My teenagers and I had the Motto Black, the Motto Red, and the Motto Special. All bowls were tasty and delicious. Noodles were fresh and the chaschu melted in your mouth. Staff was super friendly and attentive. I would recommend as a casual and family friendly atmosphere. We will definitely be back again.“

“Tried this place for the 1st time. At the door, you notice the sign that says Military Discount. Thank you for that. Started with Egg Rolls and Spicy Edamame. Great portions, amazing flavors. Sushi had Salmon and it was very good. The ramen was Pork based ans it had a good kick. Good spicy with so much flavor. I gave the 4 stars because they have TV's and I wanted a basketball game. They couldn't change the channels for whatever reason. Asked for the bill and apply the Military Discount on the bill. The discount only applies to the Things I ate/ordered. I was there with my wife so they gave us 2 checks. It was pretty weird but oh well. But that doesn't change the fact that food was great and I want to try more items on the Menu. Good beer selection too 🍺 🍻 Enjoy!“

“Best Ramen spot I've ever been to. Love the thin soft noodles and broth is delicious!!! This is one of our top weekly spots especially with this cold weather, absolutely perfect!!“

“We ordered two different mazemens: the Deluxe and the Kyoto. First off, the noodles were great, I loved how chewy/springy/bouncy they were.

As for the flavors, the Kyoto was decent. It was savory, but nothing really stood out. The Deluxe, however, was bursting with flavor. With just the right amount of spice and garlic, plus a few splashes of their house vinegar, I couldn’t stop eating. Toward the end of the meal, they brought out a small cup of rice that you can mix with the remaining sauce.

The service was great, parking was plentiful, and the atmosphere was nice and relaxed.“

“Vegan Ramen for me in Buena Park. Yay!“

“Soooooo good. I can still get in here with no line, however, there will come a time…….when there will be a long wait!“

“Really Cool Spot. Susi is all I I have ever ordered and it is fabulous. You can pick it up to go or dine in. The People that work there are polite and efficient. (Customer service A+)
They stay open pretty late. It's perfect for that late night snack not to heavy. They advertise a low cost happy hour that had Top Shelf beers and food. Check it out.“

“I’ve visited this grocery store several times (out of towner and only visit Cali once a year), but this is my first time trying Hokkaido Ramen. I kept my expectations low, since this is located in a food court, but I was surprised by the layer of flavors I could taste in this bowl of spicy ramen. By the way, THIS is the regular size, so I’m so glad I didn’t get the large size.

I liked that the toppings were served separately from the noodles and the broth. I could either dunk them in the soup before my bite, or eat them as is. The half boiled egg was soooo good with the spicy soup though!!! My tummy is so satisfied!

Granted it was a Saturday in the middle of the lunch rush, the wait was only 10 minutes. I’m so glad I made the right choice. FYI I was given a buzzer so I didn’t mind that my seat was on the opposite side of the food court.“

“I have to admit, I should have checked Yelp before visiting this trendy new brothless ramen spot. I’m not one to chase after the latest restaurant fads, but I thought I’d give it a shot. Unfortunately, my experience didn’t live up to the hype. I anticipated a one-hour wait, but it ended up being an exasperating 1 hour and 40 minutes—definitely not ideal.
While the food was genuinely good, I can't help but wonder if it was worth that long wait. The outdoor seating was nonexistent, and it was frustrating to watch servers moving at a leisurely pace, seemingly with no sense of urgency. The service itself felt lackluster, which added to my disappointment.
On the plus side, the noodles were absolutely delicious and clearly the highlight of the meal. However, when weighing the wait time, service, and price against the food quality, the overall experience just didn’t come out on top for me.
If you decide to give it a try, be sure to add yourself to the Yelp waitlist beforehand. Hopefully, your experience will be better than mine! If you’re willing to wait it out, you might find gems on their menu, but be prepared for a less-than-stellar dining experience in the meantime.“

“Amazing authentic Ramen. Service and food was excellent. My new favorite in Lombard!“

“had the butaton Ramen, very very good! 1st time here, I definitely will be coming back!“

“An Evening at Kin Izakaya: Where Tradition Meets Ambiance In the culinary haven that our city embodies, Kin Izakaya emerges as a sanctuary of authentic Japanese flavors combined with the convivial spirit typical of Japan’s iconic gastropubs. It’s here that tradition and modernity collide to create not just a meal, but an experience worth savoring. The moment you step through the doors of Kin Izakaya, you’re greeted by an atmosphere that’s both lively and intimately comforting. The ambient lighting, coupled with rustic décor and understated oriental motifs, offers a welcoming reprieve from the city’s hustle and bustle. The soft murmur of patrons engaged in animated conversation sets the backdrop for an authentic izakaya experience. Kin Izakaya’s menu is a harmonious blend of traditional Japanese fare and innovative culinary creations. The tapas-style dishes, perfect for sharing, encourage a communal dining experience. From the delicate flavors of their sashimi to the robust, savory notes found in their yakitori selection, there’s a delightful complexity in each dish presented. The agedashi tofu, with its perfect crispy exterior giving way to silken tofu within, is a testament to the chef’s prowess in honoring traditional flavors while serving contemporary palates.“

“If you’re a content creator this place is for you. They get treated better than the average person staff are attentive to them . If you are a regular person like me . Welp let just say it takes a while to be seen only attentive person was Issac he was nice actually genuinely seems interesting in giving good service.“

“Amazing, super delicious Ramen - reinvented in the U.S. so the soup is totally drinkable. If you've ever eaten Ramen in Japan, you know what I'm talking about. The dining area in-store is modern and clean, but sometimes the long waiting line can be a turn-off, at least to me.“

“The Black Garlic Ramen & the potstickers“

“First time being in Buena park and this was the first place I tried and it was AMAZING! ❤️
It's a self service restaurant along with the side dishes such as pickled radish and red ginger which I thought was really nice!
I highly recommend this place!“

“This and marafuku are my top ramen places in Irvine. Everything in the bowl is elevated and exceptional, great quality control and nice thick pieces of flavorful pork unlike most other traditional ramen spots that serve thin dry pork. The broth at times can seem a little too fatty/thick but that's a minor complaint. Also the indoor seating is very cramped and limited with reserved signs on all the tables, making you feel like you can't sit inside and have to use the outdoor seating only. As a ramen restaurant this is the opposite ambiance of what it should feel like.“

“Antony was an amazing server! He was super friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome from the moment we walked in. He gave great recommendations — the ramen he suggested was absolutely delicious! Thank you for making our visit extra enjoyable. We’ll definitely come back!“
