“Love their selections of foods not too much not less just right and not complicated. My tummy is full and happy soul 😊“

“The food and service is a 10! we will be back when in town. I'd come from Montana just to eat here it's that good“

“ABSOLUTELY the BEST ramen I have ever had!!! The service is amazing, the fried pumpkin... off the hook!!! Spring rolls, yaaasssss!! I had the King Ramen...whoaaaaa! Daaaaammnnn!! You will NOT be disappointed. Thanks to the owners for the great experience.“

“Open late in a town where almost everything closes early. Fantastic broth __ certainly above average. Delicious food 🍜 value priced. 🎯“

“Good food, portions & service...“

“I’ve been back a few times since my last visit, and I have to say they are much better after the rebranding. The tsukemen is just as good, if not better than before, and the prices are way more affordable now.

I always ask for my tsukemen broth to be extra hot, and it hits every time. Big shoutout to Cici and Michael as well. They helped us out the other night and were awesome.

Service has been smoother, the quality is consistent, and overall it feels like they’ve really stepped it up. I’ll definitely be back again soon.“

“The food was delicious and the service excellent“

“This place was awesome. the fish was extremely good and the service was fast. I'm not sure why it is rated so poorly, but I had a wonderful experience here and I would definitely return if I lived in the area!“

“I loved the vegan broth options! Glad we could find a place that has more vegan friendly broth and toppings! Our server Jeraldine was awesome and she took care of our complicated order due to our food allergies! We will be back again!“

“We had a wonderful experience here!! Service was 10/10 and they helped make my friend’s birthday memorable. The ramen is delicious - not too salty or oily or heavy, and the broth is super tasty. This establishment has a rich history; ask the servers!

Thank you to Mija, our server, for an amazing experience!“

“Delicious! Can’t wait to go back.“

“this is definitely one of the noodle places

food was pretty good, but we ordered something asking for no allergens and they didn't make it with no allergens. my therapist will definitely be hearing about this once i get one.

EDIT in response to owner's response: It's been a while but it would have been egg and fish powder.“

“Foods are good & service needs to improve. Myself & friends are first time to attend this Ramen place, overall we like the food & will go back!!“

“สนุกสนานอาหารอร่อย บรรยากาศดีมีระดับ“

“Very quick & friendly service at the Sunset location. All I got was a regular-size chicken karaage bowl and it was perfect. Tipped a little extra“

“A hidden gem in Montrose. Very good food, attentive service, reasonable price.“

“cause they doooopppe ya heard ?“

“KK discovered a ramen spot with great atmosphere in Arcadia — Fujiya Ramen 🍜
The space feels like a cozy Japanese izakaya, with warm lighting that makes it perfect for friend gatherings or casual dates. The service was friendly, and the pacing of the dishes was just right ✨

This time we tried two popular ramen bowls:
🍜 Fujiya Chashu Ramen
The broth is rich but not heavy, and the chashu is tender and flavorful. It stays delicious until the last bite.

🌶️ Volcano Ramen
The spice has great depth and layers — perfect for those who enjoy bold flavors. Definitely memorable!

🍱 Eel Rice Bowl
The eel is thick and satisfying, with a balanced sweet-savory sauce that pairs perfectly with hot rice.

🥟 Sakura Pork Chashu Buns
A small but delightful surprise. The chashu is well-seasoned, and each bite is just right 😋

🔥 Mix Yakitori Platter (8 skewers)
Includes chicken wings, chicken hearts, pork belly, and more — each skewer carries a delicious charcoal aroma. The chicken skin with chili was my favorite!

🦑 Grilled Squid
Grilled to perfection with a slight char. A squeeze of lemon makes it even more refreshing.

Overall, this is the kind of place you’ll think of when you
✔️ want a proper bowl of ramen
✔️ want to pair it with some yakitori and drinks
✔️ or crave something warm late at night 🤍“

“This restaurant was amazing! The food was well cooking and seasoned lots of flavor in the Ramen broth and noddles, everything was prepared fresh. The staff was very attentive and kind, my friends and I had a great time there definitely will be coming back!“

“Their Tan Tan Men Ramen are the best! I love how I have the opportunity to customize our ground meat choices (I.e. ground pork or ground chicken). Topped with nori, baby bok choy, bean sprouts, hard-boiled egg, and ground meat, the ramen have the perfect flavor. Their chicken karaage were the best too!“

“Very well run and maitained. The Ramen choices are delicious with lots of options. Try the spicy chicken sandwich too!!“

“Simple and straightforward menu. It doesn’t make you feel overwhelmed looking at the menu. Staff are super friendly and attentive! Indoor seating only. Very clean! Portion is very affordable, I ordered one bowl and ordered extra noodles and an empty bowl. It was perfect for my two kiddos to share!

I really wanted to try the calamari but it was sold out. So definitely gotta come back next time to try it.

They have good mix of long tables for bigger parties and small tables for 2-4ppl. They can adjust the level of saltiness of the ramen which is awesome! Never been to a ramen spot that has offered that before.

Ordered 3 bowl of tonkatsu ramen, karrage chicken, beef gyoza, and a Sapporo. It was all perfect for our ramen loving family! Definitely recommend you checking them out!“

“I’ve always passed by here but never tried it. So let’s see if they’re pretty good eh or ew. I got their spring rolls, takoyaki, and popcorn chicken ramen to try. The spring rolls were interestingly cut but very good. Crispy shell with savory veggie filling. Also came with a side of soy sauce for dipping. The takoyaki were crisp with a gooey center, topped with like a sweet mayo, and had a tender not too fish piece of octopus in the middle. The popcorn chicken ramen came with a BUNCH of MASSIVE pieces of crispy, juicy, savory chicken. Like can u even call this popcorn chicken still if they’re this big? Surprisingly paired well with the ramen which also came with came with green onions and pickled ginger, that helped add a brightness to the bowl and wood ear mushrooms, and half an egg. The broth was really savory but not super rich and oily which my sensitive tummy appreciated. The noodles also surprisingly stayed pretty chewy while I was eating them even tho they were soaking up the broth. This place is pretty good.“

“Can't wait to go back and try more ramen. Enjoyed the Chicken Curry ramen.“

“I had a great experience at this ramen spot! The food was both delicious and very affordable, which was a pleasant surprise. They also offer alcoholic drinks — I tried the sake margarita and it was so tasty. The space is a bit on the smaller side, but it still felt cozy. My server, Amelia, was incredibly nice and made the visit even better. Overall, a great place for a flavorful meal and a good drink!“

“very delicious👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“I was a JA kid in the 80s and 90s. After CYC basketball games and Tamiya Mini 4WD races, my family would head to the third floor of Yaohan and enjoy the great flavors of Hana-Ichimonme. This was, hands down the best ramen in downtown back then, and I can't wait to taste it once this pandemic is over. Okaerinasai!“

“They have great lunch specials for both ramen and sushi! Plus validated parking, which is rare in Hollywood, on the Eastown property!“

“la comida mui rica el servicio excelente lo recomiendo 💯%👌👍“

“So , I decided to rate four stars. Solely based on the fact that the food was great . The staff were freindly and greet you upon arrival. The place was great . We even received a little gift after we left. The only concern my freinds and I had was the quality of the bathroom for the women. My freind had told me that the bathroom smelled of mildew , the soap dispenser was broken , the Dyson hand dryer was also broken and, the sink requires almost two people to have the water running. You need to hold down a button in order for the water to run and if you didnt keep your hands on the button the water would shut off. Its like those that you push and the water stays running for a few seconds . Other than that I would visit again .“

“Awesome place to eat Ramen“

“Yummy 😋 Ramen noodles and good 🍶 Sake. 🍜. Funny, I spoke Japanese to the cooks saying thank you for the meal and when they turned to look I saw they were Mexiconos! 😂 Good cooks though! Gracias carnales. Reasonable prices for the area in authentic ambiance :-)“

“I ordered this off of Grubhub and was genuinely shocked because the ramen was that good. Broth was super flavorful! Chashu wondefully soft! You usually expect a mediocre level of quality when your food arrives 20 minutes after it's made and in a plastic container, but it was genuinely so delicious I'll have to go to this place in person and bring friends!“

“love it nice clean, food is great I will eating there again“

“This is one of our go to Ramen places in San Diego, we love it! Our kids love it for the free ice cream at the end!“

“Went on a cool Saturday evening, with my Husband and Mom. Plenty of seating indoors or outdoors. Clean establishment. Friendly staff. Had some appetizers, the classic with chicken 🍗 and a spicy 🥵 with pork 🐖. Everything was delicious 🤤, even got to take my leftovers home. 🥢 🍣 🍜 It was about $80 💰 for all three of us👍🏽.“

“Yummy Onigiri! Great for a light meal. The eel was tasty and there was the right balance of rice. I thought the spicy tuna was like that found in a poke place but it was more like the tuna you would use in a tuna fish sandwich. Still good though.“

“Yum! I loved the service, the food, friends and atmosphere.“

“I overall love this place for sit down service. The atmosphere is cool and the staff are very friendly. The food is good and Its always very busy.

The staff are nice but im giving service 3 stars because they have a very flawed system for their takeout orders.
I would recommend only eating there dine-in. Never get takeout from there. Im told Their sushi bar has an odd policy where they cannot make any take out orders until after the dine-in orders are filled. The problem is this place is always busy and theres always new dine in customers going in. So the takeout sushi orders never get filled. Ive done takeout here one time and waited 40 minutes only to be told my single sushi roll would take another 40 minutes. Some people in front of me were waiting two hours. And the ramen portions of your takeout order will be filled quicker so it will just sit there for 1.5 hours and get cold. I Just refunded my order like others did and took my cold ramen home at the end. I dont understand this policy as it kind of makes takeout impossible. So i highly recommend only dine-in at this restaurant. If you order takeout on a busy weekend it is likely you will never get the food.“

“We have been customers of Kai Ramen 4 years but because of destiny customers of this Arcadia location 2 years. Always worth the drive & with traffic on the 134/210. We are always greeted politely. The servers are always polite & detail oriented. Featured in the photo volcano ramen, spicy beef ramen, edamame, & spicy tuna crispy rice and gyozas.“

“Very small Ramen restaurant. The Daikokuya Ramen with fried rice is delicious. Edemame was lightly salted and really. I noticed a lot of to go orders, so it is a local favorite.“

“Suehiro Mini review:

Suehiro Mini is a cozy, casual spot known for its authentic Japanese cuisine, especially sushi and ramen. The flavors are fresh and well-balanced, with generous portions. The staff is friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming vibe. It’s a great choice for a quick, satisfying meal with quality ingredients. Prices are reasonable, making it popular among locals and visitors alike.

If you want details on a particular dish or experience, let me know!“

“Great spot for ramen, it hits the spot!“

“Stopped by Kyuramen in Arcadia and tried a good spread of their menu. We ordered the Tonkotsu Shoyu Ramen, Miso Ramen, Rice Burger, Pork Tonkatsu Omurice Combo, Honeycomb Platter, Matcha Tiramisu, and grabbed milk tea from TBaar after. The pork tonkatsu omurice combo was probably my favorite of the night. The egg was cooked perfectly, and the table-side cut where it spills over the rice was done really well. The honeycomb platter was also a highlight — a nice mix of different bite-sized appetizers that made it easy to share and try a few things at once. The ramen was solid, and the rice burger was fun to switch things up from the usual. After eating, we walked straight over to TBaar since it’s literally connected, which was super convenient. The milk tea hit the spot and was a nice way to wrap things up without having to drive anywhere else. Overall, it was a good experience and a place I’d come back to if I’m in the area and in the mood for Japanese comfort food with options beyond just ramen.“

“Great rolls. Big selection.... fresh.“

“Quality food & service at reasonable prices 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“Really good birria crispy tacos👌“

“TSUKE Artisan Noodle is absolutely outstanding. The noodles are perfectly cooked with great texture, and the broth is rich, deep, and full of flavor without being too heavy. Every ingredient tastes high-quality and thoughtfully prepared.

The tsukemen is especially impressive—bold, savory dipping broth paired with chewy noodles makes every bite satisfying. Portions are generous, and the presentation is beautiful.

The staff is friendly and attentive, and the overall vibe feels clean, modern, and welcoming. Easily one of the best artisan noodle spots around. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!“

“It was very nice. Loved the hellos and thank you for coming. I can’t wait to come back next time I visit the area.“
