As usual it did not disappoint, we loved everything we ordered. It's a great place to come when you're hungry and just want to eat and go. It has simple decor, nothing fancy. Service is fast and attentive. Definitely a must try!

Restaurant quality just hasn't been the same, but that is not the case here. Over the years their team has continued to offer delicious food and a nice casual dining experience. The store is small and cozy, so not great for parties larger than 4, though I'd really just suggest 2. Great for lunch or a low key dinner, it is one of my go-to for ramen spots. I really love their white miso tsukemen, the thick noodles are slightly chilled and served with a wedge of lime which is a nice way to lighten the very rich broth. I've had their red miso before but its deeper flavor is a bit too powerful for my taste, so for those who like something with more umph, that's a great choice as well.

Have been seeing this spot pop up on a lot of OC ramen lists and decided to try it out. We also had…read morehigh expectations due to their Michelin Bib Gourmands for the past several years. The interior is very small, maybe 16-20 seats total. For food, we ordered the gyoza 2/5, spicy white miso 3.5/5, and spicy red miso 4/5. The gyoza was disappointing since it was reheated and still tasted cold in the middle. Both ramen were filled to the brim with rich, flavorful broth. The white miso broth was slightly less thick and rich than the red miso. The noodles were chewy, and the Tao spice had a nice kick. Unfortunately, there was no AC running so we got pretty hot and uncomfortable during our meal. They also charged us for an extra drink that we didn't order. Sadly, this spot did not live up to expectations and will not return.

Mai Phat Noodle House is one of those places that does simple food really well. I ordered the dry…read morewonton noodle with BBQ pork and a side of steamed wontons. The noodles had a great chewy texture, and the star of the dish was definitely the sauce. It had that classic Vietnamese-Cantonese flavor, perfectly balanced between sweet and savory, coating every bite of noodles without being too heavy. The BBQ pork was quite dry, the wontons were generously filled, and the soup on the side was clean and comforting. The steamed wontons with soy sauce were also delicious and packed with flavor. Portions were generous, prices were reasonable, and everything tasted fresh. I'd happily order this again.

We started with the shishito peppers and takoyaki, and the takoyaki was easily some of the best we've had. It came out piping hot, perfectly crispy on the outside, and soft and fluffy inside. Since it was such a hot day, we ordered the Hiyashi Chuka (chilled ramen) and the Oroshi Soba Combo with grated radish and tempura. Both were super refreshing and exactly what we were craving. The Hiyashi Chuka had a great balance of flavors with fresh toppings, and the soba was light, chewy, and paired really well with the crispy tempura. The hot tea was a nice touch, and everyone working there was friendly and welcoming. We also loved how extensive the menu is. There are so many Japanese comfort food options that we'll definitely be back to try more. If you're looking for authentic Japanese food in the area, Gomen is absolutely worth a visit.

They give you so many pieces of pork. The pork by itself has a nice seasoning and flavor. There are plenty of the wraps and fillings, and the two sauces add even more flavor. There is enough bossam to feed probably 4 people. The banchan (small side dishes) are always delicious too. They always have a good variety and they'll refill the side dishes whenever you need. I order the Seafood Soon Tofu almost every time. It contains lots of seafood and has great seafood flavor. The Seafood Pancake and the King Donkatsu are also delicious. They give you a large portion size and there's plenty for leftovers.
