Ramen Restaurants near Tarzana, CA

“Delicious ramen with rich black soup that tastes so authentic it brought me back to Japan (in the future time lol) Paired perfectly with a cold Sapporo beer — pure comfort. Amazing and purposeful service by Sarah, Kate, and Mona. Friendly, heartwarming, and attentive — they truly made the experience feel special. They all deserve a holiday pay raise and recognition for their great work. The owner/chef Toshiro adds a level of authenticity that makes the meal feel real, warm, and crafted with care. Upbeat Saturday night music, chill and cozy ambience, comfortable seating, and a clean, homy environment. Truly a wonderful experience. Highly recommended. Thank you so much. God bless! :)“

“Love this place treat you like family“

“m/ Really good spicy awesome noodles 🍜“

“Wonderful experience at JINYA Ramen Bar in Topanga! My daughter and I came for our usual quick lunch and were seated at the ramen bar. Gaby made our visit especially enjoyable — she was so warm, attentive, polite, and professional.

What impressed me most was when I accidentally wrapped my aligners in a napkin and they were thrown away. I asked if they could be found, not really expecting it, but Gaby went above and beyond, found them, and brought them back to me! I was truly so grateful.

Thank you, Gaby, for your kindness and for making our lunch such a wonderful experience. We’ll definitely be back! ❤“

“yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy“

“Good and delicious food…happy hour is great!“

“Couldn’t be more happy about my experience today. The staff were very kind and helpful and the food was beyond fulfilling. Nothing cheers me up more than ramen and Kai took it that much higher. Something about the tonkotsu in addition to the charsiu pork absolutely reigned based on my memory of LA selections. I don’t think I’ll ever get this close to thins location any time soon but I’m glad it left a valuable place in my ramen filled heart. ❤“

“The thick pork bone and fish soup has a deep umami flavor and a slightly smoky taste which is unique. A very good experience.“

“This place hit it out of the park. I stopped in for a solo dinner while away at work. I ordered the Spicy Miso Ramen and a beer. The food was incredible, beer properly carbonated, and my server was very kind and attentive. Prices were very reasonable too. Definitely adding this place as a go-to dinner spot.“

“Came for a quick dinner bite. Food was tasty and service was efficient. Easy dine out option for kids. Curry ramen is unique, and actually goes well with the karaage. Egg yolk in ramen wasn't runny. Karaage sando was tasty and a good value.“

“Best ramen in LA. Hip atmosphere. Great service. Friendly workers. Highly recommend it.“

“Yuzu Zen was fantastic. It’s one of the only two vegan options available at this chain. We tried it in San Francisco and were happy to discover that it’s also available here in LA. The service was friendly and attentive, making the experience even better.“

“So friendly! So great! So yummy! The Spicy Cold Tofu special is amazing! �����“

“The ramen was great! Portions were good, broth was nice, noodles were cooked well. Toppings, however, are limited to only 3. I got the curry ramen which was different but unique. Also got garlic edamame...for the price it was a small portion but tasted great.

The service was fast. You order through tablets outside or inside. Reminiscent of Japan.

There's bar seating and a couple booths inside with additional seating outside. The space is very cozy and welcoming. Downside is parking. Its only street parking or if youre lucky the lot across the street.“

“It was a decent place for a decent ramen. The price for the ramen and appetizer combo was great, only $20. We got two combos. The ramen itself was good, especially good considering the price but not the best ramen I have ever had. I also thought that they gave us very little protein in the ramen. I feel like at other places they give you more. The movie theater is right across the street so it is a perfect pairing for a movie night“

“Excelente. Servicio variedad. De comida. Deliciosas . Y frescas“

“Delicious food, fun atmosphere and very affordable! Always a great time!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The Kuromayu Ramen was very good and very filling. The broth was yummy. I feared it was going to be salty but it wasn’t. The marinated egg was sooo good and the yolk was perfectly jammy. I wasn’t a big fan of the noodles but they were decent.

There is a mechanic humming sound that is quite loud and distracting. The atmosphere of the place could have been better if it was perhaps quieter. But, otherwise for a Saturday, there was no wait. The staff was very kind. The decor is nice and the place is exceptionally clean.“

“Oishi food and amazing service 🤗“

“I’ve been here only 2 times and I liked everything very much, the first time with my grandmother, and the second time with my ex. It’s a wonderful place with a pleasant atmosphere, delicious food, and excellent service. On average, the price for two is about $60-70 and it’s quite expensive, that’s why I rarely come here. But it’s still a very nice and cozy restaurant i like it 🙌“

“Haven’t been here in a while and saw that they were closed before I came and now they’re open. I tried their soft opening and wow, what a difference the Ramen is now. They have a Japanese chef now as well. It’s the same good taste, but it’s on another level especially the pork they’re making it fresh now they told me because it’s very big difference and they’re gonna do that daily. Honestly, if it’s this tasty again and they keep doing it like this I’m gonna come back more often. Also order the Giza that was even better than before, but the girls was pretty good before but it just even better now. The curry rice I also got that tasted exactly the same so no changes there. Definitely try the pork and see for yourself you’re gonna be shocked how good it’s now.“

“My local ramen spot in Valley Glen, Los Angeles, California on the border of Van Nuys and neighboring North Hollwood. Ramen Izakaya is great from take out or dine with a plethora of beverage options as well as eats. Available through doordashz grubhub and ubereats this small chain biz has an incredible creamy vegan ramen, spicy lemon grass ramen, veggie spring rolls, tofu nuggets, shishito peppers, edamame, rice bowls, salads, soups and lots of traditional Japanese and ramen dishes that will please your taste buds times two. They have some decent outdoor seating, but incredibly indoor and a huge parking lot in back. The service is always good and usually very personable. A unique Japanese cuisine eatery with some LA Valley flavor and modern plant-based flare.“

“Excellent ramen with a unique chicken-based broth! The Japanese BBQ chicken ramen was rich, smoky, and incredibly flavorful, with perfectly chewy noodles. The charcoal-grilled chicken was tender and delicious. The cozy ambiance makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a little ramen shop in Japan. Definitely one of the best ramen spots I’ve tried!“

“Love the vibes. Comfortable stylish atmosphere. Food was yummy! Delicious had birria, spicy chili, diablo ramen and beef and broccoli with rice. All entrees were hot and fresh tasty! Appetizers: had Wings a little too salty but the spicy edamame’s were good tangy spicy chili vibe was just right. We recommend:)“

“I’ve come to Kanpai since they opened and never had a bad meal. It’s our go-to Japanese comfort food place in Santa Monica. Love the selection of freshest sashimi and sushi. Excellent cooked dishes and best yuzu ramen in LA. Servers are really friendly and attentive. Happy Hour menu and 50% hand rolls are a great deal. Also love the plenty parking spaces in the rear.“

“We’ve been eating here for years, maybe 5 times a month. The service is friendly and quick. The food is delicious. I almost always get one of the ramens (I have five is six favorites) and they build the flavors carefully. I’d seriously say the whole operation is top notch. We tend to get there a bit before the rush so almost never have to wait for a table. I’ve tried my wife’s choices, (fried chicken, gyoza, green beans w/garlic, etc.) and I promise you the whole menu is terrific.“

“This place has the absolute BEST Oyakodon and curry. I know people focus on the ramen but for real, it’s the closest we’ve gotten to food in japan since we got back from our trip. INCREDIBLE and they have thai tea and milk tea that’s delicious!!“

“We were greeted by Aaron as soon as we walked in and seated right away. I ordered the Level 3 ramen with gyoza, and once again, this place did not disappoint. The ramen was flavorful, comforting, and had the perfect amount of spice.
My daughter wasn’t feeling well and wanted something warm, so we ordered the signature ramen broth with noodles for her. After eating it, she said she instantly felt better.
We’ve been coming here for years because the food is consistently delicious and the service is always welcoming. We’ll definitely keep coming back. Highly recommend!“

“The menu is unique and named creatively, which I found charming. The food was well-made, and made in ample time. The service was amazing and the cashier walked me through the process, being very nice the whole time. The roll I ordered and the tea were delicious, and I'd love to come by again soon.“

“There's no doubt they have the best ramen in town and we have great ramen selections in LA. But the Blaze pork broth and pork buns are to die for! The service is often incredibly fast, full meals are served within a couple minutes! One of the best places to visit for a savory meal.“

“This is our go-to sushi restaurant. The food never disappoints. The service is very friendly.“

“Traditional Japanese izekaya. Daily specials. A definite must try.“

“Really good food fresh and the ramen is soooooo yummy“

“Had an amazing experience at Shiso Sushi Sherman Oaks The sushi was extremely fresh, high quality, and beautifully prepared. You can really taste the quality of the fish in every bite.

The service was friendly, professional, and attentive, and the overall atmosphere was clean and relaxing. Everything we ordered came out fresh and delicious.

Definitely one of the better sushi spots in Sherman Oaks if you’re looking for quality sushi and great customer service. Highly recommended.“

“My kids were raving about this place and they finally invited me to try this location. So naturally, I ordered their best items on the menu. We ordered the chicken pieces as an appetizer and we all chose a bowl of ramen. I ordered the beef broth truffle soup with an extra side of pork belly. The appetizer and the special sauce was delicious and the Ramen was amazing. As a big fan of Phó, this place was really good. Next time we come in, I will order the chicken broth. The only reason it didn't get a 5 star review was because of what management said to us as we dined. One of the people in our party did not have soup, they had a sandwich from the restaurant next door. Management came to our table and said that they didn't allow outside food to be eaten in their restaurant. With multiple restaurants located in this shopping center and No signs posted anywhere, I think this policy should be re-evaluated. Between the 3 of us eating Ramen, the bill was almost $84 with a tip. I think for the location being so close to other choices of food and the price, my family should be able to enjoy dinner together. I hope they change this policy in the near future.“

“Amazing food and cute interior. Will come back again!“

“Food is great BUT they did something tonite that scared us. They delivered an order of calimari to our table which we did not order. They came back at least 15 minutes later or more and asked if we had ordered it and we said no. Asked if we are from it and we said no and they picked it up and took it to someone else. 15 to 20 minutes it sat at our table.
I am pretty sure that is a health regulation problem. Would you want food that was sitting at some random table?????“

“While the ramen is quite good, try their other non-ramen offerings. Katsu curry rice is very good here (katsu pork was prepared perfectly and curry flavorful) as well as their gyudon (beef over rice). Service as fast, friendly and attentive and the dining area was very clean. Value for the meal is excellent especially for West LA! Cannot recommend enough!“

“Good foodstuffs at a reasonable price $$ 🥰“

“Omg, so good!! So fresh!! Broth was amazing, I wish I had more noodles, next time I’ll add more noodles!! Ramen Ramen Ramen❤️❤️❤️😁“

“My wife and I love sushi. We enjoy Katsuya and Nobu and many other fine establishments. We stopped going to these places (at a risk of sounding old) because of the the noise, the attitude, the kids screaming and have discovered this amazing gem in Encino - walking distance from our home.

Sushi - fresh and A++
Rolls - Creative and huge!
Wine - best pour I have ever seen.
Reasonable corkage
Best salmon ever

It's a quiet place - under control - a relaxed atmosphere - friendly staff and helpful chefs. Most importantly - Incredible sushi and more - a very extensive menu.

Check it out - it is a 5 star dining experience. Not fancy - but delicious.“
