Ordered through ubereats got the spicy tonkotksu ramen with edamame and dr pepper. Also got the shoyu ramen. And came with free gyoya. Every thing was delicious! But would have to knock down 2 stars because I asked for the spicy sauce on the side and not in the noodles and when it was delivered you can tell the spicy sauce was missing a lid because it was leaking everywhere on the chopsticks bag. And all that was left was the chili part and not the oil. But would buy again. Probably not the spicy in fear of there being another leakage.
DELICIOUS. Was on the hunt for some delicious vegetarian ramen in Long Beach and this place was it. I got the spicy vegetarian ramen and it was so good (with a subtle kick of spice - I have a high spice tolerant, so it was very tolerable for me. My partner thought so, too, and he doesn't have as high of tolerant as mine). It's down an ally way and thanks to the beautiful building mural, I was easy to spot Daisy's kitchen. You can place an order ahead of time and pick up, but we placed an order on the screens inside and received a notification about 15 min later to pick up in the respective locker. Didn't have to interact with anyone which was actually a nice change of pace. I'll be returning.
Food is good, but they messed up our order so it really took from our experience. May order again cuz the food was good, but it's all about attention to detail y'know? Sad part is it really wasn't even complicated. Order 1: add seaweed. They charged us, but didn't add it. Order 2 & 3: hot sauce on the side. No hot sauce. Order 4: spicy tonkotsu. No issues with it, but had to share my spicy stew with order #2 to make up for the restaurant's mistake. We're in quarantine, so had to split the food and couldn't give some of my spicy stew to the other order. Also had asked if they could write our names on the lids so it was easier to separate, but that wasn't done. No biggie cuz that was just asking for them to go beyond.
I was looking for a ramen place. I had been craving Ramen the weekend prior, so when I saw the rating and the fact it was super close to work, it was like the perfect find... So it took me a few extra minutes to find the actual entrance location since it is actually in the alleyway.. When you get close, you will tons of parked cars and food runners for door dash uner eats etc. Don't be scared they are just picking up delivery orders inside. You will find two touch screens where you can order from not only the Ramen Giraffe but 34 other restaurants. That's right, there are 35 restaurants to choose from Clever business model for sure not getting side tracked I ordered the Pork Ramen spicy, Hamachi Kama and a Cucumber Salad After the order, it was about 5 minutes or so when they called me up, I chose to eat there so I could see well the food was cooked and I wasn't disappointed... My ramen is steaming hot and spicy, cucumber salad super fresh and crisp with every bite, and my Hamachi Kama. Well, let's just say cooked perfectly... I will definitely be back again!!!
The Black Garlic Tonkotsu Ramen was perfect for my late night ramen craving! Not only is Giraffe Ramen delicious for takeout, it's actually tastier than many of the ramens I've had dining at ramen shops. It comes topped with wood ear mushrooms, half a soft-boiled egg, bean sprouts, bamboo, ginger, green onions, and of course two tender cuts of tonkotsu. The broth is nicely flavored without being too salty. I really appreciated the thoughtful packaging which separated the noodles/topping and broth in separate compartments within one container so it doesn't get soggy. The container is tied up in a plastic bag to prevent spill. The ratio of noodles/topping and broth was perfect. The next time you have a rainy day ramen craving, give Giraffe Ramen a try!
I placed an order for my meal through Uber Eats and upon receiving it, I noticed that it was warm. However, it could have been hotter. Despite this, the dish was incredibly delicious. Nevertheless, I found it necessary to enhance the flavor by adding various seasonings such as salt, black pepper, garlic powder, turmeric, and ginger. These additions truly elevated the taste of the dish. Although I would definitely order it again, I would suggest that they incorporate more seasoning into their preparation. As for the overall experience, I would rate the atmosphere with one star since I did not have the opportunity to see the place in person. On the other hand, the service was impressively quick, earning it a five-star rating. As previously mentioned, the only drawbacks were the lukewarm temperature of the food and the need for additional seasoning.the spring rolls was delicious.
I'm glad I tried this ramen place. The broth is tasty and spicy, the noodles are silky smooth, and the toppings complement the bowl. I love ramen, so I'll be adding this to my weekly rotation!
Ramen Delivery FTW! They have the best containers for delivery/togo orders. I had the spicy miso and took all of my daughters toppings because she wouldn't eat them. Warm, filling and delicious! I've order from here a few times and totally going to order again! Delivery time is quoted really high so I was extra excited when I got my food in half the time!!
Packing are great. Fast and convenient. I expected the cucumbers salad to have flavor but it turns out just completely plain with soy sauce on the side. I thought it would be marinated like Thai style cucumber salad or most of the Japanese restaurant cucumber salad. Overall, its an okay ramen but I would not say its the best one in town.

This place is so FIRE!!!! Coming in, you can see how clean and well maintained the whole place is. Everyone is happy to greet you. I came at a later time in the evening so there were plenty of seats available. The menu is extensive and there SO many options to choose from so you'll never get bored coming here. Apple was our server today and she is so amazing. She was incredibly friendly and my daughter had fun talking with her. Apple gave us plenty of time to review our options and answered all the questions I had about the menu. She really brightens up the place and makes you feel at home. Our food came in a timely manner and all the items came one by one but with very short arrival times between them so we got to eat together. Apple checked on us a great amount of times to make sure we got what we needed and brought us the little extras we asked for quickly. They even celebrated my birthday even though it was a couple days after. You really feel cared for here. We used to be addicted to the Giraffe Ramen location in Long Beach and would order various times in the week. I'm so glad to see them come up and expand their restaurant to include a dine in area. Pricing is fair and the taste incredible. With a lot of ramen places, its hard to get what you pay for, but HERE, you get a lot more. Pro tip: ask for a container as soon as youre done eating so your ramen doesnt get taken away. I learned the hard way read more

Terrible service. The lady there had an attitude when we walked in didn't let us sit down right away. Just for us to choose our own seats. Didn't give us menus until 10 minutes after Sitting down. Didn't come back to take our drinks, by the time she did come to ask for our drinks. We already had our whole order ready so ordered at once. Mind you the restaurant was empty besides one family finishing up and we asked for a two Ramen with toppings like vegetables on the side. And she says OK. Puts the order n and comes back with our Ramen full of all the toppings and walks away. We proceed to look confused because we asked for a toppings on the side and she did not come back until we're taking off all of the toppings When she comes back, she brushes it off like it was no problem and gives us terrible attitude for the rest of the time like we put the toppings on our own Ramen. She asked if everything is OK despite messing up our order. we had to sit there for 10 extra minutes, taking out all the vegetables and stuff that we asked for all of the side. My only problem was that she's proceeded to charge us full price, and we had to pay for food that we couldn't enjoy fully because what we asked for was not given to us. And it was overcharged food that wasn't great or worth paying that much after getting our order messed up. read more

Hi Maryjane, we sincerely apologize for your experience with us.…
I had a quick ramen craving after work and found this place on DoorDash and I could pickup so I ordered! I chose the spicy tonkotsu ramen. I went to the pickup location and found out it's a ghost kitchen which I'm totally fine with. Went in and picked up my order. Inside has lockers and a window which I picked up my order from. The lady didn't say anything just looked at my order on my phone and handed it to me. It was packaged nicely and had everything I needed in the bag. It was pretty spicy yet very flavorful. Good portion of noodles which is always the one thing I run out of first with ramens. I'd definitely order again when I have a ramen craving! read more

Overall pretty good. I think the testament to a good ramen is the broth and it definately hit the mark there. However, where I feel they needed improvement is the char siu..it was lackluster and dry. That part is hard to make and if I known it would be subpar, I would have gotten the chicken instead. But again, broth was good so I would return. read more
...this place...it took me a decade to find...I felt like I drove to a stranded location when my GPS in my car told me I have arrived. In my head, I thought my GPS was EFFING with me because I didn't see a sign that says "GIRAFFE RAMEN" the only thing I passed by was a weird/dark color looking garage thingamabob. I'm thinking, is my car GPS taking me to a serial killers hide out? My GPS probably hates me by now anyways cause I overuse it's system to the max especially to locate for something to eat. It's saying "time for her to go." I'm seriously not joking...but in the end I did end up going into this dark color looking like garage place. Since my GPS insists it's in there, I was like WELL...(insert Criminal Mind's eerie theme song) I had no choice It's actually home to several mom and pop restaurants. They actually call this place GHOST KITCHEN'S. Well that explains it, right? Even the outside looks like a ghost inhibit like type of deal. The exterior is literally black. Now, you see why I said serial killer hideout, right? Hahaha, well I survived, it's ok, let's breathe. So, as I approached this eerie, looking like, dark color garage building, I was told by a Jamaican guy "You are at the right place. Food is all good GO IN" It made me think, "Ok, whew. I actually did think I wasn't going to make it today." Naw, I'm kidding. The guy actually made me felt more safe, cause I now know for sure I'm going to get some food in my stomach. Rule number one, never judge a place by it's cover right? Inside was some girls in the front that helped me out. I asked one of them where do I order and she directed me to these mini ipad machines to the right side. Apparently, this is home to several different mom/pop/ghost kitchen's. Whatever you want to call it. Here is a small list, and I will get straight to my food after this: Hint my ramen was bomb.com! -Hippo Poke -Red Dragon -White Elephant It seems like every restaurant has an animal name, LOL! Food took about 20 minutes to get to me. They however forgot to text me when my order was ready to be picked up in the front desk. This was the only thing I didn't like. I know I remember to put right phone number to text. I was wondering it's been almost 45 minutes, why is my food taking so long? I had to go to the front desk and asked if it was ready yet. The girl told me it was ready 20 minutes ago, and she apologized which was good. For my order at Giraffe Ramen, I got the Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen. Basically, spicy pork. Despite the fact that I had a hard time finding this place, the food was 100 well-worth it! The ramen was slurping material. The ramen noodles were on a little on the thicker side, which is a plus to me. I know for sure they weren't using instant ramen packages that you get from the store. The pork slices were pretty tender and a little fatty, which I absolutely savor ever last bite of them. They had such a great flavor in the meat as well. The broth was also super good. The broth had a strong spicy/pork aromatic smell to it. Super enticing. However, I have to knock a star down because they didn't give enough soup. The ramen noodles were hitting the top, and the soup wasn't even half way filling the bowl. It's a big no-no for me because I love drinking the broth on a soup while slurping up the noodles. That was the only downside, but overall it was such an scrumptious bowl of noodles. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area again. Don't worry folks, no crazy human living here. Just some good ole food restaurants in one small dark/weird looking like garage. Definitely give Giraffe Ramen a try. The ramen is fantastic! Parking is not a problem. They have a medium size parking garage at the end of the garage looking like building. Happy Eating! read more

Decent ramen at best. The noodles had no flavor, the broth could've used some more seasoning. It was a bland ramen. However, packaging was great. And the fried chicken dumplings were BOMB!!!! They get a 5/5. But his is a ramen review so I have to deduct for the unpleasant ramen meal. Next time, I'll just order a platter of fried chicken dumplings. read more

I had been craving ramen for the longest time. I wanted something local and found it here in Long Beach! You can place the order for delivery or pick up. I had the Tonkotsu Ramen, it's a creamy broth with pork, half a hard boiled egg, mushrooms and bamboo shoots. It's packaged so nicely too. Noodles and everything on a top container, separate from the broth. I put everything in and immediately started slurping the noodles. It was so delicious, the flavors of the broth mixed with the pork and a little bit of egg were just what I was craving. I also tried their spicy edamame, fried banana, which reminds me of my mom's platanos and the Chicken Karaage. This place is a Must!! Everyone is so nice too. Totally hit the spot. I definitely plan to return! read more

Very quick delivery with good flavor. Keep in mind that this is a cloud kitchen location--I didn't know this before coming so it was confusing to find it at first. There are tons of other establishments here too so you can order a boba while you wait for ramen. It's dope. Will be coming back in the future! read more

I was trying to enjoy my gyoza (I say trying because they frankly aren't very good and the sauce is overly sweet) and then there was a dead fly I found when I turned the cup of gyoza sauce around The Black Garlic Tonkotsu Ramen was disappointing as well. I love me some nice salty ramen, but this was way overly salted and was difficult to eat. Don't waste your time with this place! read more

DONT GET THIS if you want authentic ramen. I never write Yelp reviews but this ramen is way too salty and taste like Pho the Vietnamese dish, nothing like ramen. First off my boyfriend had such a hard time finding the restaurant to pick up the food and had to call them to find the pick up place. You can't go into the restaurant to pick it up and have to get it from a sketchy pick up place near a parking lot. They barely put ANY broth in the soup as well so what you see in the picture is what we got. It was the worst ramen I had in my whole life. Don't waste your money here like I did. read more

New ramen shop in north Long Beach, inspired by authentic Japanese recipes. Their menu is concise, including ramen in a variety of styles, and a good selection of traditional side dishes. Ramen shops generally have one (or zero) vegetarian options. Giraffe got my attention because they offer three different plant based ramens. They are currently open for takeout and delivery during the Covid-19 pandemic. They are on all the delivery apps. I ordered via Postmates, and my order arrived quickly and carefully packaged. The Spicy Creamy Vegetarian Ramen was indeed spicy, but so cloyingly salty that I could not eat more than one bite. The soup was only edible after watering down the broth. I liked the noodles and toppings, but the sodium level was overwhelming. The Cucumber Salad had a tasty, simple soy dressing, but the cucumbers were sliced too thin and arrived soggy as a result. I may try them again in the future. read more

Ask the Community - Giraffe Ramen
Is there dine In available or only takeout/delivery?
Unless things have changed, I believe it's a ghost-kitchen so they only offer takeout and delivery.
What is in the creamy veggie broth? It looks like milk and I'm lactose intolerant
Are the meat broths and veggie broths dairy free? Allergy to dairy.
Luciana, Yes, our broths are dairy free. For our veggie broth, we only use vegetables nothing else added. For our pork broth, we use pork bone broth.
Can the vegetarian ramen be made vegan?
Yes, we are using vegetable broth. Feel free to ask us questions anytime. Thank you
