    This review is for take out. We ordered at the end of the day, so not sure if that affected the quality ? Unfortunately I did not love my food. First off, my husband and I both ordered ramen and our takeout containers had noticeably different amounts of broth. He got a spicy ramen and I got a pork tonkotsu. The pork in my order was bone dry, not at all tasty. The noodles were also kind of hard. The broth wasn't terrible, but it didn't have that umami packed flavor I am used to with tonkotsu broth. I did enjoy the bamboo shoots and the spinach that came in the bowl. We also got the spicy shrimp dumplings and we enjoyed those. They had a great kick!

    I was led to Burosu Ramen by Yelp and had to give it a try. Here's what we ordered... Chicken Karaage: pretty good Howaito ramen (tonkotsu): Good. Broth is on the lighter side compared to more well known ramen shops, but it was good. I was disappointed with the bland flavor of the chashu pork slices. Yuzu ramen: Good. Lighter flavor than other ramen shops and definitely less heat. I would order it again. Service was quick and friendly. The restaurant was empty when I was there, so it was really quiet. Location: Ventura Blvd. and Laurelgrove (same corner mall as CPK) Parking: Underground. $3.00 with validation from restaurant I plan to go back and try their other dishes.

    Salmon with Ponzu Truffle

    Best boba menu around- like truly people are missing out! Award winning ramen, and well deserved! We love the Yuzu ramen and the spicy ones they have. AND the sushi is delicious. We love to get their salmon truffle w/ ponzu. And our favorite appetizer is the umami crisp! Delightful vibes, kind and attentive staff, clean and relaxing space.

    Crispy Spicy Tuna
    Jon N.

    The reviews and a craving for ramen made us drive nearly an hour, round trip. For us, this visit was just fine. I honestly wasn't a huge fan of the Ramen, which was just okay. I might have chosen the wrong one as the people at the next table seemed to love theirs, but for me, it was pretty bland and basic. The flavor of the broth was more like a chicken bouillon than a bone broth. Noodles were a bit too al dente. Sushi/sashimi was a better option, and we liked the spicy tuna crispy rice. Good selection of saki, and they have a TON of tea-based drinks. Service was very nice. The vibe was okay, but it was surprisingly loud.

    Potatoe croquette

    Walked in and felt more like a boba shop until they seated us and handed us the menus. A good selection of sushi, happy hour items, ramen, bowls, etc. Matcha soft serve was 8.9/10. Not too sweet but a little tad icey but generous and delicious. Ramen: 8.4/10 egg was a bit too cooked. Good clean chicken broth with a good chewy noodles to compliment it. Chicken breast was slightly dry but everything was well executed. Salmon bowl: 8.5/10 reminds me of what I had as a kid when I mixed up my own bowls. Matcha passion fruit: 8.7/10 generous and delicious and not too sweet (compliment). Potatoe croquette: 8.6/10. Good deep fry with golden brown exterior and a nice soft pillowly goodness. Millennial beige vibes with cute small tea party tables outside. Recommend especially during happy hour. Service was outstanding and such a friendly and attentive staff

    We had a wonderful experience at Burosu Ramen. We made a reservation through Resy, which I highly recommend, as the restaurant is an intimate space with approximately 20 seats indoors and additional seating outside. The happy hour menu offers excellent value, and each dish we ordered was thoughtfully prepared. The ramen noodles closely resemble those served in Japan, with a pleasantly firm texture and authentic bite. The broth is lighter than traditional Japanese styles, yet remains well-balanced and flavorful without feeling heavy. The sashimi and sushi rolls were notably fresh and beautifully presented. Dessert was equally impressive -- adding boba to the soft serve is a must, as the pearls remain soft and chewy even when mixed into the ice cream. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and generous with recommendations. Parking in the surrounding area was manageable and relatively easy to find.

    Spicy tuna temaki
    Daniel S.

    Excellent food, service and ambiance. This quaint ramen sushi joint had some of the best temaki rolls I ever had. The spicy tuna temaki were amazing. So too was the spicy crab crunchy rice. We also had a spider roll. The service was fabulous and kind, keeping our water glasses full and making sure we got plenty from the happy hour. This place is excellent and I'm so happy we came upon it yesterday. Thank you

    Make my day and Make your own ramen
    Izzy R.

    Highly enjoyed this ramen and sushi spot tucked away in Studio City. The standouts were the Chirashi bowl; the fish melts in your mouth like butter and the sushi rice was seasoned to perfection. I enjoyed the "make my day roll" with a beautiful crisp of the shrimp tempura really amplifies the tasting experience. The ramen broth was spot on (salty, umami, not-too-oily) but the meat was a little hard and unseasoned, so I would focus more on the sushi and fish dishes.

    Yuzu Matcha was the star of the meal
    Caroline B.

    Somewhat of a surprise restaurant in the back of a matcha tea shop in one of the dozens of SFV Ventura Blvd strip malls. The menu consists of a nice selection of izakaya-type dishes; however, the execution left one disappointed if the expectations were that of authentic Japanese cafe fare. Service was friendly and attentive. Prices were fair other than for parking in the underground lot, which was expensive even by SFV standards.

    The drinks, sweet violet was really good

    Was looking for a Ramen spot over the weekend and came across Burosu, so happy I found it. Such a cute little spot right on Ventura Blvd. It is small, but decorated very cute and it is a cozy Ramen spot with also a Boba shop connected. We got there a little before 6 and had to put in our name for a table of 6, they said the wait might be about an hour, but ended up being only about 30 minutes, that was great! While we were waiting, we noticed they have a daily happy hour from 3-7 (except Tuesday's) they have drink specials and other food special, but what caught our eye was $5 off all Ramen during happy hour. That is a great Happy hour and I recommend you check them out, happy hour or otherwise. There are maybe 25-30 seats inside and when not raining looks like they may have some outdoor seating. We got a number of Ramen dishes a couple dry "Mazemen style" and a couple traditional, as well as a couple rice based dishes with unagi, shrimp tempura and a sweet violet drink. Everything was excellent, although I would not recommend the shrimp tempura over rice, my father-in-law got it and it was very basic, but it did come with miso soup, but needed a bit more to it in my opinion. Other than that, the Ramen was excellent the Mazemen style was also excellent and the unagi was super tasty, yum! Ended up saving about $20 since we were there during happy hour, bonus! Street parking here can be challenging, but there is an underground lot, I believe valet only as well as a parking lot in the rear, but check the parking restrictions. We found street parking luckily very quickly. Enjoy!

    Exploring new Ramen places and ran across this restaurant. Even it doesn't seem like authentic Ramen shop but reviews are great so I have decided to try it out. I found the street parking nearby luckily when I arrived. I walked up to the restaurant and saw the sign for happy hour which takes $5 off of any Ramen bowels. Also has additional happy hour menu. They have nice outdoor seating and also have good decor of interior. Seems to be owner or manager was taking care of customers and very attentive. Ordered spicy Tonkotsu with minced meat and non spicy version with regular meat. Spicy Tonkotsu comes with some veggies and the meat tasted like they cooked it with tomato which reminds of some Thai dishes, since they are Thai they might have put some twist in it. The Ramen texture was good though. Regular Tonkotsu ramen was ok but as I was expected it cannot beat some good ramen from little Tokyo. I give this place 5 stars because of their happy hour price. Very good noodle soup for good price. I would repeat.

    Not an ordinary omakase meal but it's Chef Max's creation. You got to experience the difference between fresh meal and creative dishes that gave you memorable

    This small restaurant went above and beyond to help us celebrate a friends birthday. Our party took over the majority of inside seating. Outside tables were still available. They have a walk up to order counter as well for takeout, beverages and desserts. When I say above and beyond, I mean it. The table had a balloon on it from the business which read Happy Birthday and ended the night with a sizable and delicious dessert...yes, we all tasted the waffle, fruit and matcha soft serve. For a party of about a dozen, we werewolf taken care of. Service was fast and pretty attentive or at least we could grab her attention easily. Our table had some sharable items as well as us each ordering our main dishes, drinks and a few desserts. Everything was great! All the friends were satisfied with their meals of choice. Overall price point was decent. Slightly high in my opinion on some items, but fair on others. There is underground parking with a few hours free, or street parking which I have lucked out with anytime I'm in the area.

We didn't have high expectations for the cold tofu and okra but it was delicious and the tofu soaked up the soy based sauce and was balanced by the slight crunchiness of the okra. The waffle fries were exceptional - double fried with a curry aioli sauce. The tonkatsu and ramen were also great. The tonkatsu had a light, crispy batter and the ramen was so delicious, with the addition of corn, peas, black fungus and bamboo shoots, truly comforting. The burger was a hit, too.

Back in the days there was Curry House but sadly they are all gone now. Coco is basically the last one standing. My go to order is the pork cutlet omelet rice with curry. The egg is fluffy and the pork katsu is crunchy, meaty and juicy. I order the level 6 spicy which is just enough spicy to give it a kick. The gravy like curry has hint of spices, sweetness and smooth finish. Each order is just the right amount of food. The Japanese pickles give the dish a nice crunch and you can add as much as you want. This location is in Sawtelle so make sure to check out the dessert spots nearby after your meal. I usually park by the Marshalls which has 2 hour free parking.

    Super classic Japanese curry place! I grew up close to a Curry House but they sadly closed down…read moreyears ago and so this brought back feelings of nostalgia like wowww I've missed this! Sawtelle and Ktown (the 2 locations closest to me) are both out of the way + traffic so I haven't actually had Coco Ichibanya in ages. Pork cutlet omelet curry ($18.25)-- Tastes comforting, homey... everything you want Japanese curry to be. The katsu is not exactly dry but not super juicy either? Can't beat the ones at tonkatsu places but it works as a topping for curry. The omelet was thin and wasn't anything spectacular so I wouldn't get the egg again. This place is known for its customization potential. Pick your rice portion, spice level, toppings etc... buuuut be warned that it can come with a pretty steep price tag. It'll add up pretty quick. The pickles on the table are great!! Goes soooo well with curry and helps cut the fatty/greasy feeling. Or if you're starting to get tired of the taste, have more pickles! The chili powder is good too. Tip-- FREE PARKING!! Just follow the signs for restaurant parking. The entrance is around the corner + drive 1 min further down. There's a ramp to enter. Take the elevator up and you'll be where the restaurants are. They'll validate the parking slip. To get down, just go back to the same elevator (insert slip to scan or else elevator button won't work). Japanese curry is just one of things you have to be in the mood for. If you're craving then this will definitely be the spot for you. Otherwise it'll be kinda meh so just depends on you! Free parking in this area is a great bonus though.
