Recently, I noticed the lines disappeared so we came for an early dinner. The interior is pretty cool. It's kit just tables and chairs but the design element is unique. Some seating are inside a honeycomb shaped booth, some are just in the middle of the dining area. We were seated at a table that resembles a birdcage. There's a lot of wood and warm colors, which makes the ambiance stand out over other ramen places. We ordered a ramen, omurice with katsu, some skewers and popcorn chicken. The spicy ramen was delicious, but there was no soft boiled egg as shown on the menu photo. All I saw was a broken egg white at the bottom of the bowl. 4/5. The omurice was nicely done. The egg was perfectly soft and silky with a nice curry sauce in the side. The katsu that came with it was crispy, hot and tasty. 4.5/5. The popcorn chicken was great. Perfect seasoning and crispy. 5/5. The skewers however, were the low point of our dinner. They did not appear they were cooked fresh. The meats were dry and tough. The scallops were OK but tiny. Chicken was average. The whole order did not satisfy. We also got an Amazing Lemonade and Thai iced tea. The lemonade was a very refreshing drink, and the Thai tea is just like all other places. Our server, unfortunately forgot his name, was excellent. Very personable and great at describing flavors. The friendliness extends to the rest of the staff too. It's a nice place to check out. Note their parking lot is fairly small, and shared with Paris Baguette next door. It's a 4.5, rounded up.

I've been here a handful of times and have tried both their omakase for special occasions and their…read moreSushi Deluxe Set, which has become my usual go-to for dinner. Sushi Deluxe Set: I personally prefer the 10 piece over the 12 piece. The additional two pieces are uni and ikura, and for me they aren't really worth the extra $10. The quality is consistently good, and the negitoro roll surprisingly exceeded my expectations! The set itself is also filling enough for dinner. The closest sushi spot I'd compare it to is Sushi Kisen (for sushi deluxe set not Omakase), and I'd say they're pretty on par in terms of quality. Omakase: Since there aren't many places offering omakase in the immediate area, this is a great option if you want to treat someone for a special occasion without having to venture far. I really liked the diversity of the menu and that the experience wasn't limited to just nigiri. Overall, a really solid neighborhood sushi spot that I've enjoyed enough to keep coming back considering if you don't want to drive far into LA for omakase.

There was plenty of space but I noticed people parked horribly here and all over the line. I parked further away just to avoid this. This spot is pretty small, maybe like 10 tables and booths. We got seated right away tho on a Friday evening. They have some good combos that combine ramen with appetizers or sushi. The ramen prices are pretty in line with most other spots. Food is decent, not the best but not the worst. Prob wouldn't go out of my way to come here but nothing to complain about either. While the waiter was very friendly he needs a little coaching on being aggressive with checking up on us. He prob came by the table every 5 minutes asking how everything was when there was clearly no need to and it was very disruptive for us as we were clearly trying to catch up with each other.

I personally…read morepreferred the chicken cutlet nanban--the combination of the crispy cutlet and tartar sauce was amazing!!! I also loved the sides that came with it, including the salad, miso soup, and pickled vegetables. The pork katsu was tasty as well, although I wish I had chosen a different cut of meat. The curry had a little bit of a kick rather than being on the sweeter side, which I enjoyed. Overall, I'd recommend this spot if you're in the area and craving a solid Japanese-style katsu!

The resultant had nice wooden minimalistic interior. The menu had lots of appetizers, curry, udon and katsu options. We started with the takoyaki, fried squid leg and fried oysters. First two were really good, but oyster one was mushy and soft inside, not what I was expecting. For entree we had the chicken katsu set with extra curry and sauce on the side. The curry, rice, chicken, miso soup and all side ingredients were tasty. Especially the curry, we loved it. The service was good and friendly. Before they closed the kitchen, they went around and asked each table if the guests wanted anything to order. As the closing time approached, they still didn't rush anyone. Our dishes also came out in short intervals, all within 10 minutes. Overall an excellent place to enjoy super delicious Japanese curry and rice.

There's complimentary miso soup, garden salad, edamame, and dessert (usually). Previously they used to give a 10% discount but they have since taken it away due to oil prices. Weekends are usually busy- so I would suggest dining earlier to avoid large crowds. Overall, staff is friendly and attentive.

The offerings felt pretty similar, though I'm not entirely sure if the pricing differs between lunch and dinner. The food arrived hot, fresh, and satisfying, just like I remembered. Service was decent overall, but we did have to flag someone down a couple of times for water and a missing item. Nothing major--just something to keep in mind. The restaurant tends to stay pretty busy, so a little patience goes a long way. Luckily, there are TVs to keep you entertained while you wait. The ambiance has a modern Chinese aesthetic with tasteful décor that gives the space a cozy, welcoming vibe. There's also plenty of parking, and it's conveniently located near other shops if you feel like strolling around after your meal. The dinner sets are reasonably priced for the average appetite. If you're a big eater, you may want to add a couple of extra dishes, but overall it's a solid value. Definitely worth checking out if you haven't been yet!

Simple and slightly crispy, but there wasn't much tuna. (4/5) Daikoku Ramen - Basic ramen. The chashu was a bit lacking, but the overall flavors were decent. It's a solid bowl of ramen. (4/5) Spicy Chili Mazemen - I really liked this overall. It came with a soft-boiled egg, which made the dish even better. They also gave me a bowl of rice even though I ordered takeout. It's not the best mazemen I've had, but it's pretty good. (4/5) Overall, it's a good spot to grab some ramen. There are so many ramen spots in the SGV, and I'd rate this one somewhere in the middle. I'd definitely get food here again since it's local.

The noodles for me were just slightly too overcooked for my taste, but it wasn't a big deal. The tea egg was good with a just above jammy interior texture. The chashu was great though. It was very tender with no strange pork smell to it. It tasted fresh. I got the ramen with small rice bowl and salad combo. The rice bowl was alright as well. I got the pork cutlet and egg. I wanted the pork cutlet to be crispy, but the breading on the outside was soggy. The overall flavor was fine though. It had a braised, sweet soy sauce type of flavor to it. The salad was made of shredded cabbage and carrots with a creamy dressing on top that reminds me a lot of thousand island dressing. The slight bitterness from the raw cabbage paired well with the sweeter flavors of the dressing and the carrots. Service was okay.
