King of Ramen Pasadena

Great hidden ramen shop! I got the fried chicken and curry and my brother got the Spicy King Ramen (not pictured.) We both LOVED our meals. The lady working and serving was running around and was delightful even with a full house. Thank you for the food!

A small shop set up in the small plaza, I came here on a Thursday evening, the store is not large enough to fill, the bathroom in the kitchen is a little inconvenient but understandable, if it is a weekend recommended to call to reserve a seat.
I ordered Karaage and Tonkotsu Char Siew ramen, the price of 20+ is very reasonable. The food is not authentic, and visitors who want to eat authentic Japanese ramen may be disappointed, but the restaurant still stands out. They make their own soup and chicken, the ramen comes with a whole egg instead of half, the chicken is fresh from the redness, the recipe is distinctly Taiwanese salt crispy chicken, and the ramen, if not authentic, is also topped with red ginger (which is unusual in the United States). They try to restore the Japanese flavor and work hard for this, the shop is very warm, the staff treat children very gentle when the children come, I get a full mark for this mind, best wishes.

Great little ramen shop away from all of the others with insanely long lines in Old Town. We both had the tonkotsu ramen which was savory and creamy. The chasiu was delicious and not too fatty and the toppings were the usual. We each got our own bowl but split an extra noodle, as a whole one would have been too much for just one of us. The extra half noodle was just the right size.

We also tried the karaage fried chicken but that wasn't my favorite simply because I don't really like dark meat. Otherwise it was nice and crispy so if you do, I'm sure you'll like it. It comes with a side of white sauce but we weren't sure what it was. It was incredibly sweet, almost as if you thinned out frosting.

The lady there was very nice and the vibe is nice and casual but cute.

Their ramen is tasty but too greasy for my taste and my stomach.

This ramen spot is a family owned business that serves authentic ramen. The broth is all natural with a lot of flavor. I personally love that the menu is small and isn’t overwhelming. To me, that shows that they care about the quality of their food. They serve original dishes from Japan and don’t serve americanized ramen dishes which again, I love. Definitely check this place out it’s affordable and delicious.

This has honestly always been myFavorite ramen place since they opened. The broth you can tell is made with love- it’s a family operated business and the noodles are perfect texture every time. The soft boiled egg is delicious. Brought four of my kids here and they all gave it a “11/10” rating. Small family run is always the best. I saw they have a family emergency and I am praying everything is ok because they are a great family!

We got the veggie ramen but changed out the broth for pork bone broth for a small fee and added an egg. It was great! ?

Decent ramen. Nothing special when it comes to flavor. If you can make the drive out to Old Town or Arcadia there are way better options.

This ramen satisfies on so many level's! We had the spicy King Ramen and the tonkatsu with miso broth, both delicious and meticulously prepared. This family owned business proudly serves authentic slow cooked broth recipes handed down through generations, and it shows!
