Signature Trio Shrimp Noodle with wide noodles!
Tiffany P.

If comfort food had a mascot, it'd be a shrimp! This place proves it. Every bite feels like a warm, savory hug straight from the sea. The broth is deeply, unapologetically shrimpy, with a rich, silky mouthfeel that clings to the thick, chewy noodles. Service can be a bit of a gamble (sometimes spot-on, sometimes hard to track down,) but the second that steaming bowl hits the table, nothing else matters. Bonus points for the playful shrimp-themed decor! With limited seating, there's often a wait, but if you're stuck in line, at least the mall gives you something to do. Highly recommend trying the Signature Trio Shrimp Noodle with wide noodles!

I've had this restaurant bookmarked for a long time and finally got to try it when meeting a friend. Funny enough, another friend I met the day before also recommended it before I even mentioned it! She raved about the chain and said she often visited the Irvine location. That really sealed the deal for me, and I was excited to finally try it! The location we went to is located in the food court across of a new boba spot and Mochinut on the first floor of the Collage Culinary Experience in the South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa. There is ample open air free parking around the area for customers. We visited during their weekday happy hour (2:30-5pm) which offered three different deals: $9.99 with two chicken options, $12.99 with either ebiko prawn ball or crispy cod, and $13.99 with the big prawn shrimp and chicken noodle. All included a non-alcoholic beverage. It was a great deal! My friend recommended the trio noodle soup, but it wasn't part of the happy hour special, so I chose the last option. I ordered their Big Prawn Noodle with iced Oolong tea. The broth was light with a hint of umami, but not as fragrant as I expected it to be based on the reviews and my friend who frequents this chain. Maybe I got the newer, top batch without the deeper flavor and umami? The shrimp was also not the huge beautiful prawns that their menu showed - just those regular frozen round headed ones. I was a bit disappointed by my meal. My friend ordered their Ebiko Prawn Ball Dry Noodle, and my boyfriend ordered their Trio Shrimp Dry Noodle. The ebiko prawn ball tried was really good. If it's homemade, kudos to the restaurant! There was a lot of flavor in that small prawn ball which was amazing. Overall, an ok spot in my opinion. It was unfortunately a bit underwhelming but maybe it was just a bad day when we went. I do want to come back and try their Signature Trio Shrimp Noodle and maybe some of their appetizers at our next visit!

This was the signature dish/raman. Very ordinary with flavors that weren't very compatible.

It was just okay. Nothing special and I doubt I'll be returning unless I happen to be there and can't find anything better. The signature dish/raman (I think it was called A1 on the menu) was decent but had some odd flavors going on. My wife who isn't Asian had one bite and was, this is too funky and she didn't eat anymore. The wonton with chilis had way too much chili and sichuan peppers. It overwhelmed all other flavor. The spring rolls were not very good. The skin was way too thick and made it too bready. Good spring rolls have super thin wrapping. The only thing we really liked was the bok choy.

This small restaurant is part of the Paradise Dynasty conglomerate from Singapore. It's situated on the lower level of the food court in Bloomingdale's in South Coast Plaza. Its larger sister restaurant Paradise Dynasty is upstairs. There are now 2 Paradise Dynasty's in the US, both in Southern CA (Costa Mesa and Glendale). There are 5 Le Shrimp Noodle Bars in the US, 3 in Southern CA (Costa Mesa, Irvine and Glendale). While Paradise Dynasty offers a large menu similar to Din Tai Fung, Le Shrimp offers a smaller menu focusing on noodles with shrimp or chicken broth. I arrived at opening time, and the place filled up pretty quickly. There are some small booths and tables along the edges with a large communal table in the middle. You can order off a QR code, but it's just as easy to order in person. Since this was my first visit, I ordered their signature dish, Signature Trio Shrimp Noodle. It came with 3 prawns, 2 prawn balls, and one prawn/chicken wonton, plus cabbage and green onions. You have a choice of thin or wide noodles. I chose wide, which were about the thickness of linguini. The broth was a very savory shrimp broth, which apparently takes some time and effort to make. While the broth was great, the prawns were not that flavourful nor large; the prawn balls and wonton had more taste. I ordered the dish as a combo, which includes an appetizer and drink. My app choice was chilled tofu with vegan oyster sauce and crispy onions, very nice. My drink choice was "iced" oolong tea, which was a can of tea. Note the restaurant does not have an ice machine! So the tea was somewhat chilled, served in the can with a straw. The water was room temperature. Service was good. There was just one server but he was experienced and quick on his feet. Someone who looked like the manager was helping him at first until he had to leave, probably for a meeting. The noodles did take awhile to come out. You can pay in person or via QR code. Overall a decent meal. I would probably choose Paradise Dynasty for its more extensive menu. There's a pho place next to Le Shrimp that looked pretty busy too.

The waiter told us that she's the only water and that there are new recruits being trained in the back, but it will take like 30-45 minutes. We were fine with that and the food came out sooner than the time estimated. We got the signature trio shrimp noodle and prawn and chicken wonton in vegan broth. Both were good but if they were hotter, then they would be better. The signature one, it did have a strong shrimp based soup, which was nice. Also, they ran out of soy milk and hot tea options when it was opened less than an hour haha. A bit odd. I think considering the circumstances, it was an overall good experience.

I have been going to this place for the last three years because it's far away from me and it's in Costa Mesa the one that I've always go every time when I stop by at Bloomington . This is the best shrimp noodle soup that I have ever eaten so far . I ordered the Shrimp Trio Noodles Soup. The soup is very rich in flavor, noodle is chewy and the shrimp is big and fresh. It comes with shrimp balls and wontons. Sometimes a little too salty for me, I just add extra hot water to dilute it, it's still taste great ~~ you gotta try it to believe it I give 9/10 because of the saltiness (may be just me) otherwise will be 10 Waiting is always packed, so go in either before lunch rush or hi-tea time. Sometimes they offer 20% Happy Hour discounts. Just check their Yelp or website when they have it, not year round. Ofc, they have another appetizer like chicken cutlets also crispy and flavorful. Gotta try everything, you might like other stuff right. The Dynasty upstairs is also owned by them, stop by to try their rainbow dumplings and chicken noodles soup. Food is awesome there as well. Happy Eating

Pleasantly surprised the first time I came for lunch and am glad to see the standard keep up! Brought my parents here for their first time and they decided to partake of the specials available. Service stays good, friendly and efficient, and we were in and out as fast as we could eat.

Maggie C.

Honestly was pretty disappointed with this place because we enjoyed Paradise Dynasty. When we got there Saturday 3PM the restaurant wasn't even full. The hostess was literally at desk and no one acknowledged us for at least 5 min - I had to actually ask the hostess if we could be seated and she still told us to wait. I don't mind waiting but an acknowledgment would be nice because we were just standing and wondering if she even saw us. When we got sat, the table next to us was whispering about how bad the service was too. There was one guy who was actually attentive but everyone else looked like they didn't want to be there. Then on to the food...I ordered the Laksa because its only served 25 bowls daily. Yeah don't order it, it's basically their shrimp ramen but with coconut essence. This place did not live up to the hype.

After having been to Le Shrimp at Spectrum without my husband I knew he had to try it for himself as he is one of the biggest shrimp lovers I know. This location is much smaller and typically has a wait. Unfortunately you can't put your name in here and walk away, you have to queue until a table is available. Luckily, even on a Saturday afternoon it only took about 10-15 minutes to be sat. I love that they have the combos here, I got the prawn and chicken wonton noodle soup with the tofu. I love how fresh their tofu is, it's absolutely delicious with the fish sauce and scallions. The soup was delicious too. The broth just has such depth of flavor, it's really well seasoned. My husband loved it, of course. I'd come back to this location.

Signature Trio Shrimp Noodle

When I make broths or stock at home, I love adding shrimp shells for umami and depth. However, this is the first time I've heard of a restaurant that specializes in shrimp broth. I was intrigued to learn more when a friend suggested meeting up for dinner. Since it was my first time, I asked our group for their recommendation. If it's your first time too, go with the Signature Trio Shrimp Noodle ($18.95). It has a little bit of everything, such as succulent prawns, Ebiko prawn balls and a few prawn & chicken wontons. I opted for thin noodles, but you have the option for wide noodles as well. The noodle soups comes with cabbage and green onions, but the absolute star is the broth. It's got a silky, creamy texture combined with rich smoky umami that I slurped almost to the last drop. While the shrimpy toppings were cooked to perfection, I think the most stand out item I enjoyed was the shrimp ball. Overall, great first time. Id' be interested in giving their Crispy Cod Noodle a try for next time, or even try the appetizer portion.

It's honestly pretty solid. Broth is rich and shrimpy. I like that I can choose between thick and thin noodles. It reminds me much of the van canh tom cua broth, and I always have leftovers to turn into a leftovers meal at home. It can get crowded, but things move fast. People eat and then they bounce. Few folks linger. The staff works hard to keep up.

Le shrimp Noodle bar is nestled next to parking garage of the Irvine spectrum. I have tried many shrimp noodle places before, so i thought why not give this place a try. It was a slow Wednesday lunch, I was greeted by one of the staff and he sat me down. The restaurant was quite small but nicely decorated. I ordered the big prawn noodle which the broth was cooked for 8 hours long, topped with cabbage and green onions. After only a 5 min wait, my delightful bowl is ready. The noodles were chewy and fresh, the prawn was big and juicy, and the broth was tasty and not over powering. I can say I had better but honestly not bad being in Irvine! Tip - get the fried onions and sautéed garlic on the side. It adds a punch of flavor to every bite!

Weekday Happy Hour!
Arielle T.

Shoutout to Kyle and Victor! Thank you to our servers who made our dining experience worth the visit. If you are looking for an easy weekday meal while you are at the mall, this is the spot for you. The wait was only 5 minutes at 2:40 pm on a Wednesday and we got seated in a quiet booth in the corner. Note that extra chili oil is $1 up charge if that's ok with you! We ordered from their weekday special and picked 2 different sets: Big Prawn Noodle Soup - 4.5/5 Bursting with shrimp flavor, their broth does not miss!! Topped with 5 large prawns, you have a choice between wide and thin noodles. I opted for their wide noodles but they could pass as thin/medium thickness. I would've loved to see a thicker option but it did not compromise the flavor or texture. It would have also been nice if you could have options for how cooked you'd like the noodles as well because by the halfway point, noodles became softer as they sat in the broth. In the dish, you also are served cabbage as your veggies. Overall, I still come back time after time when I am craving a ramen dish that isn't your traditional pork broth! Ebiko Prawn Ball Dry Noodle: 5/5 If you like Mala style chili, this is the noodle dish for you. Balanced with cucumber, this dish packs all the umami you need when you don't want a soup based noodle dish. The prawn balls are my absolute favorite here! Each ball is made with shrimp and roe that pops and gives texture with each bite. Texture of the noodles were perfect here and consistent throughout the whole duration of the meal. Drinks: All chilled drinks are served in pre-packed cans but you are able to get ice on the side as well. We got a Coke, Sprite, and Green tea. Note that the green tea is unsweetened.

A Legendary Slurp - Gone But Never Forgotten It is a true…read moretragedy for the Orange County food scene that Hakata Ikkousha in Costa Mesa has closed its doors. This wasn't just a "ramen joint"--it was a masterclass in authentic Fukuoka-style soul food. The Broth: Liquid Gold The standout was always their Signature Tonkotsu broth. You could literally taste the 30+ hours of labor that went into it. It had that distinct "frothy" texture (the bubble of the bone marrow) that you only find in high-end Hakata shops. It was rich, creamy, and carried a deep umami funk without ever being overly greasy. The Hits * Black Tonkotsu: The roasted garlic oil (mayu) added a smoky, dark complexity that ruined all other garlic ramens for me. * God Fire: For those who like to sweat, this offered the perfect balance of heat without sacrificing the integrity of the pork flavor. * The Karaage: Genuinely some of the best fried chicken in the area. Massive, juicy thigh meat with a shattering, thin crust and that addictive spicy mayo on the side. * Customization: I loved that they let you pick your noodle firmness. "Hard" was the only way to go to ensure that perfect snap with every bite. The Atmosphere The Costa Mesa location always had a great energy--functional, clean, and unpretentious. The staff were always efficient, greeting everyone with a loud "Irasshaimase!" that made the experience feel truly authentic. It's heartbreaking to see such a high-caliber spot leave the neighborhood. If you were lucky enough to eat here, you know we lost a heavy hitter. To the team at Ikkousha: thank you for the memories and the best bowls in the city. You'll be sorely missed! Note: For those still craving that specific broth, their Torrance locations are still holding it down--definitely worth the drive to keep the dream alive. Come back to OC! !

Both had such a rich, deep flavor. I haven't had a broth as good. The chicken karaage was also slept on. It came with just salt and mayo, and it was simple, juicy, and crispy. One day, I'll go to the Torrance location and try Hakata again. Until then...

Even with the unlimited customization options, they also offer limited-time ramen bases as well , like a pumpkin ramen, crab ramen, or even a curry ramen just recently. These limited-time ramen flavors are always so creative AND tasty, so the announcement of a new limited-ramen always gets me rushing over to try it!! The ambiance is excellent as well, and the addition of the patio provides a nice and private scenic breeze, with extra bonus points in practicality for providing a nice space for pet owners like myself when I have my dog with me! Not only is the food and ambiance great, but the service is spectacular as well. The servers are attentive friendly and quick, so I'm never waiting long! Extra special shout out to servers Bao and Kenny!!! Both Bao and Kenny have been my server time and time again, and both of them provide beyond exceptional service at lightning speed!! The managers too have been so wonderful to me as well, with Nike, Brandon, Britt and Chuong facilitating such wonderful dining experiences every time I visit!!

We had the Tonkotsu Ramen, Gyoza, Spice tuna…read moreroll, and they had teriyaki chicken wings as a new menu item which I really hope they keep!! As it turned out to be the best part. The ramen was incredible. Super rich and concentrated broth with a nice sear and intense flavor in the chashu pork. We added a few soft boiled eggs which were absolutely flawlessly cooked, the best I've ever had tbh. The gyoza had a nice crispy bottom and were so shockingly juicy inside it felt almost like a soup dumping! The sushi roll was also packed with flavor and a nice heat. It was really the teriyaki wings that stole the show. Again, ridiculously juicy with a nice crunch on the outside, the sauce was insanely good! Sweet, rich, garlicy, umami - all the best flavors. Service was excellent, everyone was super nice and the food came out quickly and hot!!! It felt made with love and skill. The only thing is that it was a bit bright inside the restaurant but then again I am sensitive to light. Otherwise the layout was nice and specious and full of medium and small booth options. Overall we cannot wait to return and bring friends!! :)

Spicy miso ramen: 9/10 Actually one of the better ramens I've had lately. The broth is creamier and isn't overpowering with chicken/beef flavor. The chashu was nice and tender as well. I really liked that their noodles were al dente and not too soft Deluxe mazemen: 8/10 Taking my first bite, I was instantly greeted with an explosion of umami. There's a LOT of flavor packed in this bowl and the noodles used are actually a bit thicker which is right up my alley. My only drawback on this dish was that I wished it came with some sort of veggies to cut through all the flavor. They also give you a small serving of rice at the end for you to mix into the bottom which was a nice addition Kurobota sausage: 7.5/10 We've recently been on a kurobota craze. Don't get me wrong, these were great but we've only had them charred and grilled before so I was taken aback when I saw that these were only steamed. Flavor was spot on but I'm a sucker for a nice char or crisp to my meat Overall, loved the service and small restaurant vibe of this spot.

The lady who served us was friendly and gave us good recommendations. I think she was handling the whole operation to be honest. To start it off, we ordered their specialty chicken karaage and it was very delicious. It has a nice crispy and crunchy texture. The batter on the chicken was good and once you bite it, the meat is juicy and tender. Doesn't really need dipping since it's so good. As for the Mazemen, we ordered the Deluxe and Veggie one, both is a 5/5. Very flavorful and it tastes just like ramen, but without the soup. The presentation of the dish looks like a work of art. Very picture pretty. I ate that shit up within ten minutes. After that they give you a scoop of rice so you can mix it up with the leftover sauce. Lots of umami for sure. Definitely will come back again to try the other flavors. People, trust me and come through!

I've been around this area for so long but only just now am I trying Kashiwa Ramen!…read more Going inside, the seating area is not large, and off the bat, I couldn't get seated with my family because the 2 high chairs they have available were already taken by another family. Thankfully, they had a booster seat available to have our child sit on. We ordered a miso ramen, a spicy black garlic ramen and a gyoza for our appetizer. The person taking our order was patient with us as we ordered even as we were dealing with our toddler. Our requests were accommodated respectfully and to the best they could! Upon first glance, the gyoza looked good, like it was a family recipe and made from scratch! The spicy garlic ramen had thick, and a tasty looking broth and the portion sizes for the ramen looked like decent enough for the price. The taste for the gyoza was good, but the spicy black garlic ramen definitely stole the show! The broth was the perfect level of savory with a delicious blend of garlic that wasn't overpowering along with the pork broth. The chashu was incredibly tender and flavorful and the ramen was cooked perfectly - *chefs kiss*, amazing! Another reason that helped me decide on eating here was that there is a student discount for OCC students! Definitely cool that the local business is supporting local students! I had a great experience eating here with my family - the food was delicious, the staff was helpful and it was joy!
