One is the loneliest number -- except if you crave ramen without a wait. I was able to walk right in and order. My perfect bowl includes extra chashu, green chili butter bomb, and corn. Delicious.
This place is real busy in the late afternoon and early night. The smell of the food is so intoxicating. Despite the long wait, the Hakata Ramen is soooo on point. DEFINITELY WORTH GOING!!!
Loved the vibe, the stuff was very attentive and efficient. Great ramen with tons of toppings that come on the side. Tried fried pig 👂, and chicken cartridges! Love that you can order a half portion.
It's always a very long wait so we put our names down, had a beer at Angel CityBrewery and came back just in time. You can order hakata ramen with toppings of your choice.
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!
Shin-Sen-Gumi is the best Japanese place to eat in the area. It’s ramen is fresh and authentic with so much flavour you could almost cry. I would highly recommend this place to everyone.
The Hakata-style is one of the most recognizable types of ramen. Completely customizable this loud, raucous dining room will surely remind one of Japan. En savoir plus
The ramen is highly customizable - you need to get the add ons to make it awesome. Also, a secret is to ask for your noodles to be "barikata" (extra hard, don't mark anything on the noodle firmness)
So cheap! You can customize your ramen by choosing the level of saltiness, softness, etc. The broth was a little salty. You can choose all kinds of sides to put in your ramen. I liked the takoyaki.
I was excited to try this place, but the experience I got was so and so. Service was great, but the ramen fell flat. The broth is pretty oily and I felt a bit sick after. Still a good place though.
The staff is friendly, and welcomes everyone with a greeting! I think it's a greeting, but they could be saying, "Hey look at this loser! He's gonna need help reading the menu."
Gyoza are these cute little ones. No wonder they order a 12 piece portion. Flavored egg is hard boiled...should have gotten the poached one. Broth is killer...great flavor & the perfect consistency.
If you like a excitable and boisterous atmosphere and don't mind not hearing yourself think with workers shouting Japanese every moment then this place is for you. Btw, their ramen is very good...
The strong broth is decent. Noodle comes off with a weak flavor similiar to an italian-angel hair spaghetti. Gyoza not too terribly impressive either. Liked the spicy miso too.
Shin-Sen-Gumi restaurants serve traditional Japanese cuisine... with an authentic experience. Based in the Los Angeles area, our food is prepared and served with pride.(Plus d'informations)
