It's typically a busier mall, so I expected a wait, but we got seated pretty quickly. They have indoor and outdoor seating, but we opted for inside. The service was relatively quick and smooth. The staff was pretty attentive and moved quickly. The food was good, I have eaten it before. It looks small in terms of portion size but was pretty decently filling. We got a combo that came with an appetizer (we opted for the broccolini (not pictured because we devoured it pretty quickly). It comes with sesame sauce and is charred pretty well. Really enjoyed that. Main course wise, we got the Shoyu Ramen with Pork and Spicy Tuna Poke Bowl, both which were super yummy. We also got a pint of beer and green tea for drinks, and it was good altogether. I'd say this is a pretty casual spot so no need to dress up. Seating can be a bit tight and it can get sunny due to the open windows without shades, but otherwise, pretty lax and chill spot for lunch or dinner.

I want to say that the servers are very quick and on point. They were very attentive with water, food, etc. the only thing that threw me off I guess was our California roll came out when we were almost done eating. For food, my husband got the chicken broth ramen and I got the classic ramen they offer with pork. I really wish it came with more pork pieces, the only give you one. I found it to be very tasty too so it was disappointing they only gave one. The ramen is okay, it's not like bad, it's good, it's just missing the "wow" factor for me. It needed a little extra something! All in all, I've been to their other location and this one is pretty good too.

We have come by this location a few times and wondered why the crowds were thin compared to when we were at the Irvine Spectrum, so we gave it a try this past Saturday. Not sure if they were short staffed, but I felt the service was a bit off. Anything we wanted, water, napkins, etc, we had to ask for or flag someone down. Same thing when getting the bill. The ramen was just as good as Irvine, but the Spicy Tuna Roll was notably much smaller. As for the ambiance, we were in between the lunch and dinner rushes, so it was fairly quiet other than the music playing throughout the restaurant.

Food is really good. For some reason, there's a different ramen spot I used to go to (not…read moreSilverlake locations) that would give me hives but this one doesn't (hurray!). Service was great the first time, okay the second time, but still fine. They have indoor and outdoor seating.

My only wish is that maybe the spinach was less clumped (but could just be natural result of adding it to the ramen) and maybe that the pork was cut into multiple thin pieces rather than one large piece.

The greenery is well kept, the lawn along Silver Lake Blvd is always buzzing on weekends, and the mix of hills, flats, and surfaces keeps things interesting-- it gives treadmill vibes but with fresh air and multiple personalities lol. Only downside: the occasional rogue dog "surprise." Pet parents... we see you. Don't be a poopoo head! All that said, still a classic LA loop and still one of my favorite ways to move, unwind, and remember that humans can coexist nicely (mostly). See you on the trail sexy!

An outdoor carnival is NOT a formal event. They could have just dressed casual and at least been warm. This place is NOT the place to hold an event like prom. Terrible decision and a waste of money!

Not a lot of places have truffle ramen on the menu so I'll take it. The truffle flavor comes from truffle oil so the taste is pretty subtle. The broth is more garlic forward, it's rich and creamy. They have a bunch of options for toppings to enhance the ramen and it's served in a deep bowl so you're getting a good amount. The space is on the smaller side so you'll usually have to put your name down and wait a bit before getting seated. It's not the most authentic Japanese ramen but it's worth checking out.

You know how restaurant water sometimes tastes a little... suspicious? Not here. This water was crispy, clean, well-filtered perfection No weird aftertaste. Respect. The creamy broccolini??? So good that my boyfriend -- a known broccoli hater -- admitted it slapped. I don't know what sauce they put on it, but I need it by the cup immediately. Chicken karaage: FIRE. I'm usually picky about chicken because of texture, but this one? Crispy outside, tender and juicy inside, and once again... the sauce is doing the heavy lifting in the best way possible. Now the main event We both got the blaze ramen. The noodles have the PERFECT consistency. The broth is insanely flavorful and smooth. I got the medium spice, and it's actually medium (not "medium but secretly spicy enough to ruin your day"). Every topping works -- spinach, bean sprouts, all of it. And can we talk about the egg being INCLUDED? No upcharge nonsense here, thank you very much. The pork is so juicy it literally melts apart like it knows its purpose in life. Service? Top tier. Kendal G was doing the most -- running the floor when we first got there AND still giving immaculate service. He even put the hockey game on for me That's how you win loyal customers. Overall: great food, great vibes, great service. Silverlake Ramen understood the assignment. Will absolutely be back.

My friend and I both ordered ramen--she got the garlic ramen, and I ordered the Blaze ramen. Unfortunately, her noodles were very hard and stuck together, which really affected her appetite.

At the time, my friend thought it was only a few pieces, but it turned out to be more than that. On the other hand, my Blaze ramen was great. The broth was flavorful and satisfying, and I had no complaints with my noodles. The only minor note on my dish was that the broccolini was a bit on the harder side, but everything else was really good.

We ordered three Blaze Ramen combos, and unfortunately, all three had issues. One bowl (tofu + added corn) came out with pork and no corn. Another (chicken, no corn) came with pork and corn. By that point, my boyfriend didn't want to send the entire bowl back, so he just asked for a side of chicken and removed the pork himself. The third bowl (chicken, corn, mild, no bean sprouts) came with bean sprouts and an overwhelming amount of chili. After dealing with the first two orders, I didn't even want to send it back--I just didn't eat. It was frustrating, especially since we know how good this place can be. The only bright spot was the pork buns--they were excellent as always. Would have been a one-star experience otherwise.

Lots of culture, history, and art on these streets. Love the painted stairs all around and the artwork for the local school and other various buildings. Nice to see hills and the palm trees lining them and the main road as well. Eclectic and "hipster-y" vibes and community, so you get lots of interesting community shops, businesses, and eateries, but also some really high end ones as well. I really liked the super friendly cats that came out to say hi and get some pets at a local hookah lounge and that the local school there has a community garden and chickens. Can't say it's a place I'd regularly seek out and visit, but nice to stop by here and there.

"I've been waiting…read more.. I've been waiting for this moment all my life..." Reflecting on the history of Silver Lake over the last several decades it's amazing to learn and have seen it evolve with time from days of activism in the 60s advocating for equality across the board to present with much more inclusivity. I was born in LA near LAX, but didn't truly start exploring this side of the bustling streets of Los Angeles until about 12 years ago and even in that short span. Neighborhoods have changed, new businesses have popped up and a few great long-standing ones shut their doors. If you're visiting or local walking around this little big neighborhood can be quite fun with a little of everything from cuisine to cocktails. Clothing to cars and even the occasional local events like Off Sunset recently-ish (usually early Springtime each year), a collection of vendors and businesses supporting each other as well as the city of Silver Lake... Open to all and for all much like the city itself!! Transportation of the public variety isn't too bad as local city orange Metro busses such as the 2 or 4 (which run frequently and connect to the Metro B Line aka the Red at Vermont /Santa Monica and/or Vermont/Sunset). Some streets and areas are inclined with certain residences (homes, apartments, condos, and so on) being oddly placed out of the natural foundation, but it's part of the charm much like the Micheltorena Stairs off Micheltorena Street & Sunset Blvd, which does have a metro stop of course. The education system is primarily preschool, elementary, and middle school within the area with a private school going up to 12th just beyond Los Feliz. LACC or Los Angeles City College isn't too far outside Silver Lake for high education, but I'm not sure of too many other trade, career, or college-level schooling facilities within close proximity, but we do have plenty beyond that. Silver Lake has one of the best Los Angeles Public Libraries out of any you might visit, plus it's near the Silver Lake Reservoir and other hidden gems. Some of my favorite haunts in this city are definitely Intelligentsia, Akbar, El Cid, 4100 Bar, My Vegan Gold, The Black Cat, yes... that Del Taco!, Big Mac Liquor, and the Eagle bar to name a few. The best thing/upside about Silverlake is that it's very all-inclusive and welcoming, but the down thing besides the parking is the cost of living. It's creative, artistic, and very trendy.
