    Box meal
    Clarissa A.

    Just ordered from this new spot for delivery and wow! Big portion sizes and flavorful and juicy chicken. The ranch dressing is so creamy and goes really well with the chicken! Since I ordered for delivery I can't speak to the service or restaurant but I know this was prepared with care and quality- can't wait to try it again! I also got their cookie but ate it so fast I didn't take a photo of it. It's got great texture with a bit of an umami flavor - both savory and sweet!

    This is fried chicken in a league of its own. We ordered enough, we thought, for two days and happily ate all of it in one day -- crispy, crispy on the perfectly seasoned crusty and so, so tender inside. They even make tofu taste delicious for the vegetarians! The sides are excellent and the cookie square could be about the best cookie we ever ate!

    Chicken tenders

    Portions were good and the meat was very juicy. The marinade/seasoning on the chicken and the sauces it came with, however, were far too sweet and salty - the flavor was overpowering to the point where I was struggling to finish my food, and I'm not someone who particularly dislikes sweeter fried chicken. I also tried the fried tofu, which use the same marinades, but the texture was great. I ordered pick-up from Uber Eats, and the location is a cloud kitchen, which seemed well-kept and organized. The person who was there to help was very friendly! Overall, quality and freshness were very high, but the sauces and seasoning were too much.

    My favorite chicken place in the whole wide world! Every single dish here is Oishii and so addicting, can't stop thinking about it~!! Mild spicy is my pick but Original is a must try too! Friendly service & cute Chef! Yumsers x 10!

    The chicken tender was so juicy and the crunch around it was the perfect level of crispiness. I had it with ranch and it complimented the wings so well. The rice, the potato salad in the green beans makes his meal feel kind of healthy even though you're eating a chicken tender. I feel like they use clean ingredients.

I tried their signature Rich Chicken ramen (torisoba), and it was delicious, the broth had that creamy, concentrated depth you'd normally expect from pork, but felt a bit cleaner. If it's your first time trying chicken-based ramen, this is a solid introduction. We also got the ground chicken rice bowl, which was a standout. Super flavorful, slightly sweet savory, and honestly something I'd come back for on its own. I also tried their Japanese BBQ chicken ramen (charcoal style), and while it was good, I personally preferred the Rich Chicken ramen. The charcoal flavor on the chicken definitely added a unique edge you don't usually get in ramen, in a GOOD way. Overall, this place feels different*in a good way. It's not trying to compete with traditional pork ramen, it does its own thing, and does it well. Definitely a unique spot in LA and worth trying if you want something outside the norm.

I went with my parents while they were visiting LA, and they actually said this was their favorite restaurant of the whole trip. The ramen broth had such a rich, deep flavor from the charcoal chicken, and the noodles and toppings all worked perfectly together. Another nice bonus was that the large and regular ramen sizes were the same price, which made the meal feel like a great value. We also added the fried chicken bowl and BBQ chicken bowl, and both were tasty and delicious. Everything had great flavor and felt satisfying without being too heavy. We went during Friday lunch, and by the time we finished and left, a line had started forming -- which made sense after eating there. Highly recommend Torisoba Sumiya if you're in Sawtelle and looking for something a little different from the usual ramen spots.

    If you like tonkatsu (pork cutlet), this is the place to go! I am not a fan of tonkatsu, but for…read moresome reason, I really like the tonkatsu here. Sometimes, I even have a craving for it. My sister was INCREDULOUS when I said I wanted to eat tonkatsu here again. haha I always eat the pork loin which is not dry, is tender, and has some fatty bits to it. I really like the texture of their pork. And the tonkatsu sauce flavor is SPOT ON, which is very important! My sister LOVES the corn soup. It IS tasty, and so is the miso soup. I also like the salad dressing that comes with the side salad for an entree. For me, tasty salad dressing is a must or I won't eat salad! My sister always eats the shabu shabu salad, which I have also tasted and like, but I only eat salad occasionally when I have a craving, so I haven't had the salad as a meal. Unfortunately, I tend to eat the same thing over and over, so I can't comment on the rest of the menu. We also only do takeout, so I cannot comment on service, but the tonkatsu here is definitely the best I have had thus far, and like I said, I am not a tonkatsu fan, so that's saying A LOT!!!

The katsu combo (chicken, pork, shrimp, and mackerel) was very crunchy, and the chicken and pork were especially tender. The proteins were a bit bland on their own, but the dipping sauces were solid and helped a lot. The Fish & Chips were a highlight--the fish was soft inside and crispy outside, and the fries were very good. The corn soup was naturally sweet and mild but surprisingly flavorful. The curry had a good level of spice and came out in a fun gravy boat since we ordered it as a side for dipping. The vibe is relaxed and beachy, with surfboards and a cool blue sky ceiling feature. Service was friendly and fast. Unlimited rice and grinding your own sesame seeds were nice touches. I'd come back to try their creamy udon dishes.

I actually had Ikura…read morebookmarked during my trip to Japan, but I never got the chance to go, so when I saw they were coming to LA, I knew I just had to make the drive from OC to try it! You physically have to stand in line here which is a little excruciating but I came here at noon on a Saturday during the first few weeks of their pop-up announcement so I really did that to myself. It was probably a 1.5 hour wait, but I'll do anything for a good bite The demiglaze omurice delivered exactly what I wanted- the most silky melt in your mouth eggs ever, a rich savory sauce, and hamburg all on top of a bed of fluffy rice. The egg really was the star of this dish, I've never had eggs with this texture in the US. Ikura has really nailed their recipes and training of chefs here, I've tried to make eggs like this at home and it's just never the same! I will say the hamburg was a little thin and dry, but I was very willing to overlook that because of how perfect all the other components of this dish were. We also ordered the Ika Ika okonomiyaki, which comes with squid. I don't think I've ever had this type of Hiroshima style okonomiyaki, which has all the ingredients layered instead of mixed (they also do serve the Osaka mixed style mixed though). I probably wouldn't get the squid topping again, but the okonomiyaki itself is enough to keep me coming back. You get the option of soft of crispy noodles, and we got what our server recommended, the crispy, and she definitely knew what was up- the slight crunch added a great texture contrast. On the topic of our server I have to give her a shoutout for being so kind and attentive towards us. I wish I got her name, but she was a young girl server and she was just so sweet in giving us order recommendations, as well as giving us a tip that there really aren't any lines here if you come on weekdays during early lunchtime. But what really topped it off was that we remained in the Sawtelle area after we finished dining here for about two hours and ended up really needed a bathroom. No restaurants were letting us use their restroom so we went back to check Chinchikurin around 4 pm which is when they close for lunch. One of the other servers was about to send us away, but our server from over two hours ago remembered us and let us use their bathroom she's a real one

And I guess... only right now because this pop-up collaboration between Chinchikurin - Sawtelle and Ikura goes away on June 1st! From now until June 1st, Chinchikurin - Sawtelle has replaced their entire okonomiyaki menu with 4 types of omurice: demi-glace (classic), mentaiko, black curry, and tomato ketchup. You have the option of adding a hamburg steak as well. The shop is a bit on the small side as it sits in one of the more crowded plazas in Sawtelle. Service is also a bit on the slow side. I have visited Chinchikurin twice during this pop up event and tried all 4 omurices! The egg is cooked perfectly and oh so jiggly. They flop neatly blanketing the rice when you slice them down the middle. The hamburger steak is good too - I would get it. Now here is the Cody run-down on each of the different sauce options: Demi-Glacé: Classic. Very good! If this is your first time trying omurice, you should probably start here. I would describe it as a dark, elegant gravy that's savory with a touch of sweetness. Mentaiko: Unexpectedly, this was my favorite! The mentaiko flavor was rich and full of umami. The sauce was creamy and delicious. Black Curry: The curry was ok and did not have as much depth of flavor as I would have liked aside from strong notes of garlic. I would pass on this one as there are better places to get Japanese curry. Tomato Ketchup: This was my least favorite. I was actually excited for this one, but the sauce was more akin to a marinara than ketchup. I love ketchup. I was hoping for something tangy and sweet and childish, but this sauce was leaning more savory and, honestly, a bit watered down. Some appetizers, such as Takoyaki by Takoyaki Tanota, are still available. Overall, great pop up! The omurice is delicious. I've already been twice and plan to go more times before the pop up ends. If y'all see my Yelp check-ins, y'all know what's up. I highly recommend you visit before the pop up ends, and I hope the omurice ends up sticking around longer.
