“Genuine Japanese Ramen with rich Miso taste. No other ramen shops serve this taste and only one in SoCal. It’s worth to spend your time to go to this place if you are Ramen Lover! Now they start serving Shio-Ramen (Clear Salt base soup) with Truffle oil flavor. This one is very good, too!“

“Excellent place for lunch or dinner, and can be accommodating for larger parties when you call ahead to reserve space. Our family loves coming here regularly but the restaurant staff did an awesome job when we had a large party come in for a birthday. Service staff and chefs are so friendly and the fish quality is excellent.“

“I go around trying different food placed and dont normally post because I normally dont think many places are post worthy. This place on the other hand is amazing. The place is small but the staff is very tentative. The food taste amazing. Me and my wife got ramen and both of our eggs came with that perfect jammy center. This is a place I cant wait to come back to.“

“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.“

“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!“

U get to customize ur ramen all the way from broth richness/thickness, noodle thickness, veggies.. The staff always make u feel welcome 🙏“

“Their mazemen is always my favorite. No matter is the chashu, the mince pork, runny eggs, ramen egg and their secret umami vinegar, everything is super tasty and even the green onions are amazing in the dish. I love how chewy their noddles are. It’s my favorite local noodle restaurant. Highly recommended.“

“As one of the 1.5 billion people in the world who can't eat pork, the world of real ramen has been closed to me. This paitan ramen had perfect noodles and a rich chicken broth. They have the choice between traditional pork slices or slices of the most tender chicken breast. You place orders on a ticket so each person orders exactly as they want. I recommend the spicy chicken paitan.“

“I ordered from DoorDash, the food and presentation is fantastic!
BUT I’m just very confused,
how is it associated with another sushi place/restaurant in UT? J&C house?
Perhaps the manager or the owner of Chubby can help me puzzle it out?“

“Okay, okay…yes, first ramen experience! I know, I know…I’m not a long noodle guy and def not a slurper, so I’ve always kinda avoided it. Had the chicken broth here, and it was really good. This is for the peeps who have yet to try…do it. Tastes amazing and you won’t regret it. Still not sure how to cut down the large pieces of chicken in the broth with chopsticks, but that’ll be for my second visit.“

“Great food when in the mood for udon noodles or Ramen. Every dish tasted amazing and there was a variety of choices to include appetizers. Plenty of seating after pouring in your order at the kiosk. Once you're number is called you pick up your order and add spices, oils, ginger,etc as you want to your dish. When done you bring your trays to a stacked area (kind of full). Plenty of parking up front and the restrooms were clean.“

“Amazing authentic Ramen. Service and food was excellent. My new favorite in Lombard!“
“What is surprisingly fun place. First time, we've been to a make your own ramen place. The worker was so friendly in helping us pick out the noodles we wanted, how to heat it and the toppings and everything. They had a great variety of different types of ramen.
What a very novel idea and all around fun, place to go.“

“The food is great. But this is the 2nd time I made it home & realized they forgot one of the items we ordered. They also forgot the sauces for 2 of our items. It’s a bummer because we really like the food, but question whether or not to return due to lack of attention to on line orders.“

“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.“

“Hokkaido Ramen Santouka has been one of my favorite ramen spots for over a decade, and after all these years, they still never fail when it comes to taste, consistency, and quality. Even after moving away from Southern California, every time I come back to visit, this is one of the first places I crave for pure nostalgia and comfort.
What makes Santouka so special is how incredibly consistent they are. The broth tastes exactly the same every single time you order it — rich, balanced, deeply flavorful, and clearly made with care and precision. That level of consistency over so many years is something truly rare and deserves respect. You can tell they take pride in preserving the authenticity and standards of traditional Japanese ramen.
The noodles always have the perfect texture, the chashu is tender and flavorful, and every bowl feels thoughtfully prepared. Nothing feels rushed or careless. Even when busy, the wait is usually reasonable and the quality never drops.
There is a reason Santouka has built such a loyal following. It is not just ramen — it is reliability, craftsmanship, and comfort in a bowl. The chefs and staff deserve so much credit for maintaining such a high standard for so many years. Places like this are hard to find nowadays.
If you want authentic ramen done right with consistency that keeps people coming back for decades, Hokkaido Ramen Santouka is absolutely worth it every single time.“

“We were visiting from Seattle and wandered into Osaka Story completely by accident… which is now the best accident we’ve ever had.
The staff were so kind and friendly that we instantly felt like regulars, even though we’d just walked in off the street. The food was so good we came back the very next day like, “Hey, it’s us again, don’t mind us.” And the beef yaki udon? Chef’s kiss. Truly “I could write poetry about this noodle” levels of good.
We will absolutely be back—probably more often than is reasonable for people who don’t live here.“

“Filling portions, accommodating staff, and most importantly delicious food. Izakaya style allows for small eats if needed (especially during happy hour, see posted). Their bento portions are more than fair and their staff will work with you no matter the circumstances. Major recommendation for casual dine-in and/or after work celebration.“

“I tried the Spicy Black Ramen and really enjoyed it. The noodles were on the thinner side but still nicely cooked, and the chashu was cooked perfectly with a great crispy texture. Overall, the ramen was very flavorful and satisfying.
One big plus is that for an extra $7.95, you can add a California roll, which was also surprisingly good and paired well with the ramen.
Definitely a place I would recommend.“

“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.“

“Sushi Mura has the best ramen in Buena Park. This was my first time here. I've been to most ramen places in Buena Park, and didn't realize Sushi Mura is a hidden gem Sushi and ramen place near me.
The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable. The menu had more options than I'll ever be able try. I had the special sake and appetiser deal for $30 and was not disappointed.
Sushi Mura has the best Spicy Tonkatsu in Buena Park, hands down. I'm a little picky and asked for not sprouts or mushrooms, and was not disappointed.“

“Food and portions were decent but not as affordable as some of the other options for Udon especially in the area around Costa Mesa which has plenty of other options nearby. Nonetheless it’s a nice little cozy udon place that does the job.“

“Cute place, great sushi, very fresh.
This is our favorite local spot, they even have a decent happy hour menu if you can get there before 5:30p. And a good deal with 99 cent Saporo (first one, after that it's still only $2.99).
Our favorites are the sashimi roll - no rice with the best sauce, and the truffle salmon carpaccio - with another delicious truffle oil sauce. We love the baked lobster roll, their ramen and udon are both good, and in the end it's not too pricey.“

“Got Sushi is an amazing little spot to go to if you’re looking for high quality filling sushi rolls that get the job done. Not as high priced as other places which is great, but the quality still stands tall. I’m loving the vibes here, nothing but good energy so far from what we experienced. You even get Free 5 piece Gyoza with a $35 order :) We had two rolls each and it was enough to fill us up even though I feel like I should have taken one home lol Great customer service, can’t wait to go back and try more rolls and more drinks.“

The toppings were fresh, and each bite felt comforting and satisfying. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The restaurant itself was clean and cozy, creating the perfect atmosphere to enjoy a warm bowl of ramen. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends.“

“😋 Curry Rice Bowl with Tofu at Silverlake Ramen, green tea and a side of avocado 🥑
Homemade curry, mushrooms, pickled cucumbers and sesame seeds 😍
❤️🩹 Their Veggie Ramen and Spicy Veggie Ramen explicitly use a miso base for their broths (salty without raising blood pressure), and you may customize any dish to add miso items for good health.
Staff was super friendly and offered additional hot water without having to request.
Delicious - looking forward to trying the Veggie Ramen next time 🤤“

“If I could give this guy 10 stars on service, I would totally do it. Absolutely made my night. The food is very good, but the service is even better.
I love ramen and I love sushi, and both are very good here. My girlfriend and I come here sometimes, and it's always been a great experience, but especially tonight. It's how clean it is.
Especially tonight, there was a tall Asian guy that was just so joyful. He had glasses on, and it just really made our night.“

“I can't recommend this Ramen spot enough. Everything is so fresh and delicious. The service is very friendly and fast. They can get busy at times and you'll experience a short wait if it's only 2 people, if you're going to have a larger party, I highly recommend making reservations as this is a small restaurant.“

“The yakitoris were grilled perfectly, with juicy meat and delicious charcoal flavor. We also loved the wide drink selection, especially the sweet potato ale. The cozy atmosphere and view of the grilling area added to the experience. Hope they add chicken ovary to their menu!
We waited nearly 1.5 hours on a Friday night tho. Parking spaces are very limited.“
