The service was great! The employee was sweet the food was amazing! It's a cute little spot!

After seeing thousands of reviews, I decided to give this place a try. I visited on a Saturday in the late afternoon, and surprisingly, there was no one else in the restaurant when we arrived. There was only one staff member present, and unfortunately, the experience did not start with a warm welcome. She simply handed the menu to me and told me to sit wherever I wanted, rather than greeting us properly and showing us to a table or placing the menu on the table. While this may seem like a small detail, first impressions matter and unfortunately, this initial interaction set the tone for the rest of the experience. We chose 'Build your own Ramen' where every item is itemized and priced. I had the Tonkotsu broth with Pork Chashu which - 4/10; some part of noodles still clumpy, broth is decent and not that great, chashu piece is the only good thing, comes in thick chunky cut. While my husband got Kazi which is the dry noodles - 5/10, taste is quite garlicky however it's quite spicy for 'just right' spicy level. One thing I noticed during my visit was that the waitress appeared somewhat disengaged from her work. She had a TV show playing nearby and seemed to spend a noticeable amount of time watching it rather than attending to customers. Unfortunately, the overall level of attentiveness and hospitality did not meet my expectations. The atmosphere initially seemed appealing, with the painted wall décor giving the space a cool and distinctive look. However, the music coming through the speakers was not particularly enjoyable, as the sound system seemed disproportionate to the size of the room. read more

Kaz Ramen - Tonkotsu with Pork Chashu - Ramen Near Me - Grand Terrace, California

Really disappointing experience. When I walked in, I was told to sit down and that someone would come take my order, but they completely forgot about me. I ended up sitting there waiting with no service or acknowledgment. The ramen itself didn't make up for it either. Everything is "build your own," which I normally wouldn't mind, but the quality just wasn't there. The broth was nothing special, the noodles were very mid, and the pork chashu was chewy and seemed poorly cooked. Between being forgotten about and the disappointing food, I unfortunately wouldn't come back or recommend this place. read more

I've been coming here on and off for years. It used to be a place where you'd order at the counter, grab your own drinks, and pick up your to-go items. Now they have table service, which is a nice change in theory, but unfortunately the service we received tonight was really disappointing. After a 9-hour shift serving tables myself, all I wanted was a good bowl of ramen. My girlfriend and I ordered two miso ramens, an order of veggie gyoza, and a Coke. My Coke never came, and throughout our entire meal not a single server checked on us. We even noticed one server standing with her back turned to the dining room on her phone while wearing gloves...YUCK!!Early in the meal we realized we had been served the wrong gyoza, they had meat instead of the veggie gyoza we ordered. We kept waiting for someone to stop by so we could mention both the missing drink and the incorrect appetizer, but no one ever did. Since I hadn't eaten all day and was starving, we ended up eating the dumplings. When we were finishing up, I asked the server if they had meat in them, she confirmed they did. I explained that we had ordered the veggie gyoza, and her response was, "Well, you should've let me know earlier." I would have if anyone had checked on our table even once during the meal!!! The most disappointing part is that the food itself was great. The ramen was exactly what I was craving. Unfortunately, the service completely overshadowed the experience. We also overheard the table next to us complaining that the service was really bad, no one came to take their order and their drinks were forgotten too. I hate leaving negative reviews, especially because I've enjoyed coming here over the years, but the service tonight was so bad that I probably won't be back. read more

The fact that WE the consumer have to pay for EVERY SINGLE INGREDIENT is ridiculous. You might as well go to the store and make it yourself, plenty of videos on how to make homemade ramen. Every time I go here to give it another chance there's always something that turns me away and I have to drive to highland. This place is very loud a it doesn't need to be (every time I've gone at night). I'm the only saving grace for this place is that they are 24/7 but that came with a cost. read more

Kaz Ramen - $17... didn't put the broth in. It's good but not $17 worth. - Ramen Near Me - Grand Terrace, California

This ramen spot is located in the same complex as a grocery store, so there's amble parking. It was pretty poppin for a Friday night, which is understandable considering temperatures are dropping. First thing to note here is that seeing is first come first serve. Meaning, you can order, but finding a table is basically on you and your party. My bf and I ate in the car for the first five minutes (lol) until one of the servers waved us down to let us know the bar had seats available. The ramen is really good and flavorful. The spicy level really is "just right". The edamame was way too salty. I had to dip it in my broth to take some of the salt off. Overall, a decent ramen place. But I personally wouldn't want to come when it's busy and hold my bowl of ramen waiting for a table to clear. read more

Super good ramen place, open late which is super helpful. Only downside is it's on the expensive side. They charge you for EVERYTHING, greens, eggs, mushrooms, bamboo, anything. The Chaus is my favorite though, the torch it or grill it and tastes super good read more

Know your Math I think anyone ordering here needs to pay attention to the math because the pricing makes absolutely no sense. It's honestly funny how the "build your own combo ramen" lets you choose the exact same soup base, meat, noodles, and toppings for cheaper, while the pre-named ramen with literally the same ingredients costs way more. Same bowl, same toppings, same flavor -- just a different name and higher price tag. Maybe after this gets pointed out they'll fix it, or maybe not, but people should definitely watch what they're ordering. As for the ramen itself, it was just very average. The broth looked creamy, but the flavor was pretty flat and lacked depth. It tasted more salty than rich, and didn't have that slow-cooked tonkotsu flavor you expect from a good ramen spot. The chashu pork was decent visually but tasted dry around the edges and not very flavorful. Even the noodles and toppings felt basic and forgettable. The whole bowl looked better than it actually tasted. What confuses me the most is how insanely high the reviews are. Feels more like social media hype and inflated reviews than actual quality food. read more

Kaz Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Grand Terrace, California

3 Stars - Still good, but not what it used to be Coming from LA and now living in San Bernardino County, I was actually really impressed with Kaz Ramen when they first opened. There's a reason they built up strong reviews early on. The broth had depth, the flavors hit, and everything tasted fresh and intentional. But honestly... things changed. I believe, ever since they went 24 hours, the quality just hasn't been the same. You can taste it. The freshness isn't there like before, and the broth doesn't have that same rich, impressive flavor that made me a fan in the beginning. It feels like they traded consistency for convenience. Don't get me wrong. It's still a good spot. If I tried this place for the first time today, I'd probably give it 4 stars. But because I know how good it used to be, I can't rate it the same. That first impression set the bar high... and unfortunately, they're not hitting it anymore. read more

I can see why this place has so many reviews with such a hight rating. Came in last night and I would have to say it's going to be my top local ramen place going forward. Service was great and food was amazing. My wife and I got the tonkatsu base with yellow models, pork chashu (I wanted the ox tail but it was sold out) with wood ear mushroom and just right spice. The broth was flavorful without any oil or greasiness to it. Temperature was perfect for slurping. Noodles were cooked perfectly with just a slight chew to them. Chashu was the real star for me. It had great flavor and texture. Not too porky and a great crispiness to finish it off. Highly recommend for that authentic ramen flavor and vibe. read more

Well let me start off that service sucks was bad rude had attitude if you eat inside and food is not same anymore we where there when first open have not been there for while so we went today had worst service and food was not fully cook pork meat was burnt overall guys is not worth it anymore I wish that owner will see how this people that work there don't really care how customers get treated and the food get cook shame on you we work hard for our money to go spend it in good place but I guess getting treated rude bad and food differently not same so people if you go I will think twice before I spend my hard working money there I gave then 1 start because it won't let me put 0 star sadly I was every disappointment read more

You order first then find a seat. If it is busy you may have trouble finding somewhere to sit but they also have a couple of seating spots outside. The staff was friendly and they are quick with cleaning up after someone leaves. The ramen I liked the flavor for the Tonkatsu and the "just right" spice lever really is perfect not too bad but the perfect kick. Only downside was that the ramen was kind of undercooked it was like stick all stuck together which threw us off and we kind of just had to wiggle it and wait for it to finish cooking. Not really the most ideal thing ,you kind of want your food ready but it wasn't the worst thing that could happen. Overall the experience was good besides the ramen being stuck together. I would come back and give it another try to see if maybe it just was a rushed batch. read more

I chose Kaz Ramen as I arrived late in the evening because they are open until 4am. They have a variety of vegetarian and vegan options. I loved being able to build and create my own ramen concoction. Most vegan ramens are quite bland, but their vegan ramen broth was surprisingly packed with flavor. The prep time and delivery service was quick. They took care of packing my items so that nothing leaked during the delivery process. read more

Ambience - Casual and busy. Service - Good service all around from tabling to to-go. Food - Yummy thought portions could be a bit more for the price point. read more

this play is way overpriced for the portion size. Service was passable. i ordered the premium pork. they gave me two pieces. with no extra sides or anything. the total was 20 dollars with a small bowl. if you're craving ramen, this is not the place, unless your stoned or drunk or just want to pay for overpriced subpar ramen. You couldn't pay me to eat here again. do the city a favor and close this place up. read more

I ordered delivery and I was very disappointed after ordering from this place many times...they used to give soup on a clear container and they would give a generous amount , what I got this time is a joke looks like they only threw one scoop on soup in the bowl, is not even half full...there was more noodles than anything else and the chicken it's been raw and tasteless most times I've ordered...they've changed their quality and it's sad cause this was my go to with ramen. Wouldn't recommend at least for delivery...I don't about eating at the place anymore cause the ramen has become very tasteless over time. read more

This visit was muchhhh better! (Last time I got really chewy pork belly) BUT Donovan really put passion and flavor into our meals, you can so tell when someone is not only great at their job but also enjoys it. HUGE shout out to him! read more

Their ramen was so good. I usually like some spice, and most places have spice levels where I have to choose a spicier option to get some spice. But here I'll have to remember that their 'spicy' option is actually quite spicy. Nonetheless, the broth was amazing and so was the meat. Service was great and the ambience was just right. read more

Kaz Ramen - Tonkotsu - Pork Broth and Gyoza Pork - Ramen Near Me - Grand Terrace, California

We visited this place last night and ordered the premium pork ramen. Unfortunately, shortly after eating, both of us became sick. I personally had abdominal pain and diarrhea, but my girlfriend had a much more severe reaction with intense stomach pain that led us to go to the emergency room. She is currently undergoing tests, which has been very stressful. the timing and symptoms are very concerning, especially since we both ate the same pork dish and became sick within hours. At the very least, I strongly recommend the restaurant review their food handling, storage, and cooking practices -- especially for pork -- because this kind of situation is serious. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and ensures customer safety going forward. read more

Well... once again messed up on my takeout order tonight. Since the phone doesn't work I feel like I needed to leave it here. It wasn't the cashiers fault cooks forgot. I refuse to go back out tonight to fix and let them know. I hate to leave this as a one star review because Customer Service with Cashier was excellent. But I would like my review to be knowledged and hopefully get a phone line to go thru to that location to take care of this type of stuff. read more

Kaz Ramen - My order tonight - Ramen Near Me - Grand Terrace, California

Kaz used to be my favorite ramen spot in the IE till I found better spots. Tbh the best ramen is in LA area. I like kaz because it's open pretty late but nowadays it's comparable to that one spot by mission inn. Nothing special and tastes like any other average ramen joint. The broth doesn't have depth, chashu is dry, and a bit overpriced. That being said, it still hits if I'm super hungry. Nice staff. read more

Their Tonkotsu ramen with premium japanese pork is so good! And it was really chill inside .

LOVE the open kitchen. Place is clean, food is fantastic, place is a vibe. Whoever is playing the music/ playlist is on point. Bob Marley turned into Anita Baker, was rad! Customer service obviously is of high importance. They have a lovely young lady Erica. She's scooting around this place saying hi to everyone, she refilled our waters numerous times, people like her make going out to eat and spending money worth it. Thank you !! read more

Found this hole in the wall little gem while we were killing time waiting for an appointment. I'm so glad we did, it did not disappoint. From the outside it doesn't look that impressive but the inside is such a vibe. The murals are a wonderful addition that create an authentic fun ambiance. Orders are taken at the counter and it is open seating. We ordered one vegan ramen with tofu and one shio with chicken and eggs. The meals came out quickly and so delish. Perfect spice and amount of food. Added bonus is there is plenty of parking. I will definitely come back if I am in the area again. read more

My bf & I went to Cali for Christmas & decided to give this ramen place a try. It was open seating so we had to order at the front register before sitting down. This was basically a "build your own" ramen so I got the tori broth w/ yellow noodles, chicken, egg, & "just right" spice. My bf got the niku broth w/ yellow noodles, pork, egg, bean sprouts, & "spicy" spice. He also ordered a small chashu fried rice on the side. 1. Tori ramen - The broth w/ the "just right" spice was good! It was creamy without being too rich & the spice gave the right amount of kick. However, I was NOT fan of the chicken pieces. It was extremely dry & hard to eat. It felt like it was "old" chicken. Definitely stay away from it. 2. Niku ramen - I had a small sip of the broth & it was also creamy & rich! The "spicy" spice was too much for me but my bf liked it. I'm also picky about my chashu pork & I actually really liked it - definitely wish I got that over the chicken. 3. Chashu fried rice - This was actually my bf's favorite out of everything! The small size was actually a pretty big portion so we were pleasantly suprised. The rice was flavorful & it was full of chashu pork. read more

Terrible service. Won't take your order if you sit down and eat inside. Terrible attitude. Food tastes like I made it as my first time making ramen. Overhyped. Over priced. Inside tables are coated in grease and oil. No functioning air conditioning. No ice. Go to RamenKoku in Highland. read more

Best Ramen in the IE.. Chicken is perfectly cooked and the pork belly is soo good! Staff is always friendly and provide great service!

Service and food were amazing! Everything came out hot, fresh, and with just the right amount of food. Definitely a great experience!

Kaz Ramen used to be a solid quick spot--walk in, order, get your ramen fast, and get out. Nothing fancy, just good and efficient. Now it's turned into a slow sit-down place and it completely killed the vibe. You wait forever just to get acknowledged, then 30+ minutes just to order, and even longer for the food. For ramen... that's crazy. You can also tell the servers are over it. They look stressed, running around, and it's obvious this new setup is making their job harder while customers are getting more annoyed. They do have their liquor license back, so you can grab a few beers while you wait--which honestly helps--but your bill goes up quick and you're basically paying to sit there. Really disappointing. It used to be an easy go-to spot, now it's just frustrating read more

Me and my fiance came here for lunch during a gloomy day and it hit the Spot! Delicious and flavorful broth! Service was quick, you pay at the cashier once you're ready and choose your seat. Inside is a bit dark, but cool to see the art on the walls. We ordered gyoza, first batch was a bit more crispy that normal, they asked us if we wanted it still, we said yes and they gave us a fresh batch. Only thing that we wish was better was the egg, it wasn't your gooey egg, but a normal boiled egg. Overall pretty good find! Definitely worth trying out! read more
