Carolina Haro: An delicious and trendy ramen dinner experience. I got the large. And I finished it!
Camilla S.: I've tried other ramen joints, and nothing beats Shin-Sen-Gumi. It is a little bit of a wait to be seated, but it's 100% worth it! The service is excellent as is the Hakata ramen!
Chantel: My absolute favorite ramen! You can choose the firmness of the noodle and choose your toppings--flavored eggs, kimchi, spinach, garlic--to be added as you like. Nom nom!
Hau Tran: Chashu is fantastic here, the best of any ramen place I've had yet (incl Shinsengumi, Santouka, Yamadaya). I like tsukemen at Yamada-ya better though.
Matt Bernstein: Amazing ramen. The noodles are so chewy and good. Far and away the best I have ever had.
Meilissa: Char siu ramen is the best. Add the spicy pickle side dish and be generous with it. Yumz!!

Jason: The #2 Soon Tofu Soup with Shrimp, Beef and Clams is seriously the best. Make sure to drop in the egg right when you get it and then stir it in. The yolk richens the broth. Mmmmm

Roderick Gracia: Yummy Grilled Yellow Corvina, Galbi, Tofu Soup anf Grilled Mackerel
RC ⚾💫🐘: Fresh pickles, matzo ball soup, and a black&white cookie -- it doesn't get any better!
Courtney Lace: Skirt steak tacos and fried zucchini are to die for!! Matzo ball soup is great and the tongue sandwich for oldies. Place is a bit pricey but definately worth it. Great service.
Michael Lehrer: Killer combination Cabbage soup (it's fantastic) & 1/2 pastrami sandwich. Ask 4 bread brought to the table; enough delicious meat in the Brent's 1/2 to make two regular 1/2 sandwiches.

Ayumix: I'm Japanese. If you wanna eat "sho-yu ramen" ,I recommend this shop. 😍🍜🍜🍜🍜🍜
Eater: This ramen shop is the best place for Japanese noodles on the Westside. Amp up the flavor with a spice bomb. For something less heavy, opt for the Chuka Soba, a Tokyo-style bowl with a lighter broth. Read more.
Jonathan MacLucas: Veggie ramen is amazing!
Paras Bhakta: Beef noodle soup is amazing! A must try. The broth is unique.
Davari Abstrakt: Tom Yum Udon, spicy basil chick and pineapple basil smoothie. Prolly not all at once :)
Lizette Sanchez: The beef noodle soup was delicious, the pad Thai with glass noodles divine and the curry with noodles very good. I will be back again.
Lost In A Supermarket: Perhaps the best inexpensive restaurant in LA. Papaya salad, Tom yung koong soup n panang curry r superb. Cash only, but open til 4 to absorb ur late night indulgences. Feast!
Alex Karalis: I love the coconut chicken soup!
AJ L: The pineapple fried rice is savory and sweet, a perfect combination of spices. Also try the shrimp Tom Yum.
