It seemed under construction two large sections were blocked off tastefully so you wouldn't notice it. Maybe just used for storage I'm not sure. In any case not a ton of seating so if it's busy you may be doing take out. Service seemed a little slow for ramen but everything came out as it was ready and I was starving so maybe it just felt slow. I had some chicken skin gyoza, spam musubi, and tonkatsu ramen level two spicy. Everything was really good! Drink options were interesting and tried this citrus milk soda thing that was refreshing. Also tried the Japanese sweet potato dessert and it was really good. Our waiter spoke Japanese which was fun to practice the four words I know LOL! read more

This is a decent ramen place. Food was good. Customer service was interesting. The server was nice. However, it was a bit awkward when the manager/owner told us that the baby in our party counted as a 5th person, so the service charge of 18% would apply. We usually tip well, so I didn't mind the amount. It was just weird how they counted a baby that was too young to eat. * Tonkotsu Ramen 4/5 - The ramen was good. I got the spicy paste on the side to add a little kick and it gave the ramen better flavor. The chasu was thin pieces that were slightly charred. The soft boiled egg was good. * Sausage 3/5 - Pretty standard sausages. * Karaage Chicken 5/5 - These came out piping hot and crispy with a juicy interior. read more

For my first time at Mymen, I would say the experience was overall mid and nothing particularly stood out. I tried the mazemen ramen, and while it was not bad, I have definitely had better. The bowl itself was pretty simple and didn't come with many topping options, which made it feel less exciting compared to other places. The ramen noodles were cooked well and had a good texture, but I felt like the sauce was a little too salty for my preference. It overpowered some of the other flavors instead of creating a more balanced taste. I was expecting something a bit more memorable, especially for a specialty mazemen dish. The restaurant itself was fine and straightforward, but nothing really made it stand out from other ramen spots. Overall, it was a decent first experience. I wouldn't say it's bad, but it's probably not at the top of my list. I might come back if I'm in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. read more

Last night a few friends and I went out to eat. We weren't certain where we wanted to go, but we ended up craving ramen. So we decided to try Mymen Ramen. I can only start with the old saying "nothing is for free." Mymen Ramen embraces this to a fault. Where some places would give you complementary toppings or even lemon for your water, they do not. So understand that you may want to add to the flavors of your meal, but it does cost. Now that is out of the way, I can only say that I felt bad for our host as she was running the front by herself. She was seating people, busing tables, taking orders and serving the customers their meals. We were met with a very hospitable personality, but there is only so much a single person can do at one time. So it took nearly an hour and a half to get seated and served. Once we started to receive our order, it was very flavorful. As we started with takoyaki, and chicken karaage. Both of which were good, but the next appetizer was the impossible gyoza. These weren't bad, but not the same as your standard meat fill gyoza. Maybe the chicken skin wrapped would have been a better choice. As for the main meal, I chose the tonkotsu ramen, and added black garlic oil, and extra ramen. I do love my garlic in my tonkotsu ramen, but all this was an additional $8, up grade. As for the ambiance it was a small dining area, so not overly loud or crowded, but since seating is limited, there was a bit of a wait. Once seated it was comfortable and welcoming. So it was hard to share such an experience. I could see wanting to try some of their other offerings, but the pricing for every bit makes it hard to feel this dining experience is right for such a comfort food. Ramen to me should be a comfort food, that makes you feel at home. I don't mind paying for a good meal, but what is an included condiment at other establishments, it isn't so at Mymen. Enjoy!! read more

My friend put me onto Mymen Ramen, and it has become my favorite spot to get mazesoba. I'm actually surprised this place isn't as well-known as other spots. The restaurant is pretty small and intimate. It's located in a pretty small plaza, but parking wasn't too difficult to find. It's never been too crowded every time I've paid a visit, so I never had to wait to get seated. FOOD: Mymen Mazesoba (5/5) - Very delicious dry noodle dish. In addition to a delightful umami, it leans into a prominent garlic flavor that I, a person who believes there's no such thing as too much garlic, thoroughly enjoyed. The noodles have a wonderful, firm, and bouncy texture that holds the sauce coating well. I also like to pay a little extra to make this dish spicy. SERVICE: The staff are really nice and helpful. My only slight qualm with this place is that your food takes a hot minute to come out, even when there's not a large crowd. I would say the food is worth it, though, and the wait isn't even that bad. read more

I'm obsessed with mazemen and Mymen Ramen is one of the best mazemen spot beside Mazera. The mazemen here is so flavorful even with rice at the end. I tried many restaurants such as Menya Hanabi, Wadaya but imo it was tasteless. Kashiwa is good option too but Mymen is better. My hubby tried tonkotsu ramen & the broth is creamy & delightful. Mymen Ramen is my togo spot now read more

Not that many customers yet the service was still attentive and understanding. Granted it was 10 PM on a weekday yet it was still open late for a ramen shop! The broth was amazing, a clear indicator for the ramen to be good! Good option to swap out thin noodles for thick noodles for $2 extra dollars. Price increased over the years so reasonable. If you were considering of getting the jalapeno on the side for either the level one or adding on the spicy paste, just get the level one because it already comes with the jalapeno and it's on the same spice level as adding in the paste on the side ($1 vs $2). Had to change it with the server and she was very flexible. Also they have the option to add black garlic oil on the side to your broth, you have to pour it yourself after and it's not a lot but having that as a side adds flavor to the broth! The tonkotsu broth itself was already rich and savory if you wanted it as is. Cleared the bowl read more

I was too hungry to take a picture of the rest but THE CHICKEN KARAGE AND TAKOYAKI HIT THE SPOT VERY JUICY AND CRISP AND TENDER! The tonkatsu ramen was very creamy and well done and the dry noodle dish they had had a strong umami flavor with a perfect sousvide egg and they give you a small portion of rice after to soak up the seasoning! A lovely Japanese couple run this shop and they are very kind too! I'll definitely come back! read more

TLDR *.* Cutely decorated restaurant. Crispy chicken karaage big pieces. Delicious spicy udon like noodle texture mazemen. AMBIANCE & SERVICE The restaurant has such a cozy vibe. They had figurines in the front of the store and a bookshelf with a manga collection in the corner. The staff are all really kind and friendly. They seemed like they cared about the customers experience. FOOD I got the Chicken Karaage and Mymen Mazesoba (spicy level 3). The chicken karaage skin was so crispy, and the chicken thigh was so juicy. The Mymen Mazesoba spicy level 3 was actually really spicy but my spice tolerance is pretty high, so I recommend level 1-2 if you want it spicy. The noodles were a udon texture. The flavor was beefy and fishy in the best way. The fresh green onions and garlic make it so bright. read more

I stopped coming here because it got wayyyy too expensive... $18 for a ramen bowl on top of adding spice level in which you get charged for along with toppings that you want to add already puts a ramen bowl at $20+. I used to get their geso karage a lot but I don't think I can justify paying $12 for 6 pieces.... In total for 1 person it would already cost roughly $35-40 which I don't think is worth. Service is never really slow but I can't justify spending that much on myself or let along with my partner/friends. Not quite sure if the business is still busy as it was before with the new prices read more

Mymen is a cozy little mazemen/ramen shop! Lots of warm, homestyle vibes inside with a wall of mangas by the register. Pretty small space with a handful of tables for seating, maybe 6-8 tables? There was one server taking orders for the whole restaurant, so service was understandably a bit slow, but kind and attentive nonetheless! We ordered the Mymen Mazemen, Tonkatsu Ramen, and Karaage. Karaage was crispy and juicy! Seasoned pretty well and satisfying. My only gripe was that it didn't come with sauce, which was an up charge of $2. The Tonkatsu Ramen was decent! The broth was creamy and rich, but didn't have too much going on flavor wise. Noodles were a great texture though! The Mymen Mazemen was also pretty good. Portion was large, and the garlic and green onion flavors were strong. I found it to be a bit on the sweeter side, which is different from the Mazemen I've had at Mogu Mogu and Menya Hanabi. I would've liked it a bit more savory, and I was bummed that adding spice was also an upcharge. Overall, the food was decent! Didn't blow me away, and a bit pricier than other Mazemen/ramen shops. read more

We went here on a Thursday night and half the restaurant was filled. It was pretty quiet inside and they had Japanese decorations. There was only one lady serving and she seated us right away. I ordered the Mymen Mazesoba which was $16 and I got level two spicy that cost an additional $2. My ramen came out within 10 minutes. The level 2 spicy came with a jalapeño as well. It was a good spice for level 2. The lady told me when I'm half way of my ramen I should put in vinegar. She also gave me a tiny bit of rice to eat with the leftovers bits after eating all the noodles. Overall the food was really good, service was quick, and the total to everything was about $22 after tax and tip. Portion might be alittle tiny for others, but I think it's fine. Would I recommend this place? Yes, it also closes pretty late which makes it a good late spot for ramen. This will probably be my go to place since I live really close! read more

Just found our new favorite ramen spot! After driving past this restaurant almost every day, we decided to finally give it a try based on all the good reviews, and OMG we've been missing out! The flavor is as good as everyone is raving about! We both ordered the tonkatsu and LOVED it! I love to eat thick noodles, so I decided to pay the additional $1 for it and I'm so glad I did. The thick noodles are *almost* like udon but still has the firmness of ramen. It's like the best of both worlds. I also made my bowl at level 1 spice (+ $1) and it was just enough for me to feel a kick! My husband made his bowl at spice level 4 (+ $3), which is the second to highest spice level. His spice tolerance is very high as someone who's Thai/Laos, and he really enjoyed it! It wasn't just hot, but the flavor of the spice was prominent and tasted very good. We also really liked the chashu because it was sliced at the perfect thickness and it wasn't too salty. The server was a very sweet lady and the restaurant is not too big, not too small, with a decent amount of tables. Another plus is that they open late on most days, so you can get your late-night ramen cravings fixed. The only downside for us is that, since they charge extra for switching noodles and adding spice, the cost of the bowls ends up being a bit pricey compared to some other restaurants. But if you don't care for thick noodles, or eating spicy, then this shouldn't be a problem! Nonetheless, we're gonna be back many times. :) read more

My new favorite ramen spot! This is a small restaurant with eight 4 person tables. They don't have a huge selection of noodle dishes (4 to be exact), but they do them well and their appetizers/snacks are better than most that I've had elsewhere! Their lunch combos are a great way to try some of their appetizers. Here's what we got: Geso Karaage ($9) I've been looking for the perfect fried squid tentacles and this is it! Perfectly deep fried without being greasy or heavy and they were well seasoned. They came with a dipping sauce on the side to give a slight kick. Tonkotsu ($16 + $4 for Takoyaki in lunch combo) Perfect bowl of ramen where all the components shined. The yellow wavy noodles gripped onto the broth really well and the broth was rich in flavor without being too salty or heavy. It came with 3 thinly sliced chashu that was melt-in-the-mouth tender and had a nice char. The egg had a creamy yolk that burst with umami. It was so good I devoured this entire bowl! The 3 Takoyaki that came in the lunch combo was solid as well. Mazesoba ($16 + $4 for Karaage Fried Chicken in lunch combo) I've had mazemen at other restaurants and this mazesoba is very comparable to them. You can adjust the spicy level though it is additional cost. We didn't end up adding any spice, but I think it needed a slight kick. It was still delicious though! The lunch combo also came with 2 pieces of Karaage Fried Chicken which was so tender and crispy! Overall, this is a solid ramen spot with delicious food and friendly staff. I would 100% come back, especially for the Geso Karaage and Tonkotsu. read more

There are plenty of parking spaces, but can get filled quickly. I ordered the Mymen Mazesoba and it was a dry noodle (no broth). The noodles were really creamy, soft, and delicious. You add some vinegar and mix everything really well. They also provide a really small scoop of rice so you mix it with the sauce after you finish your noodle. If you have 5 or more party OR if you need to combine two tables, they automatically add 18% gratuity. Recommendation(s): - Mymen Mazesoba Service: 5/5 Tip(s): - Plenty of parking spaces but can get full - If party size is 5 or more OR if you need to combine tables, 18% gratuity is automatically added - Restrooms available - Hot sauce costs extra money read more

Came here with some friends for dinner for the first time. I've heard great things about their dry noodles but I really wanted something with broth since it was so cold out. I ended up getting the Shrimp Wonton Shoyu one which came with a egg, nori, half an egg, and bamboo. I got it with some corn and it was perfect. I am also appreciative that my friend told me level 3 price is too spicy. I got level 2 and that shit was hot. Even for someone like me that likes spicy. The ramen was good and flavorful. I got their regular thin noodles and they were cooked perfectly and I enjoyed it. My friends got the popular Mymen Mazesoba dry noodles. It came with a bowl of rice. I did end up trying some and really liked it. I would get that next time. Besides our ramen bowls we got a lot of appetizers. We tried their tofu, takoyaki, brussel sprouts and Karaage fried chicken. The fried chicken was my favorite. But all of their appetizers are cool. Bowls are about $20 which is affordable. The service was excellent but it was a little slow since it was really busy that night. We met around 6pm and there wasn't a wait but there was a wait after us. The restaurant is small and casual. Parking is easy since it's a a strip mall with a parking lot out front. I would come back again. read more

Been here twice already and overall I find this to be an underrated, solid ramen place! The first time I was here I got the tonkotsu ramen and it hit the spot! The broth was rich, I opted for the thick noodles and that really made it a hearty meal. Good flavor! The latest time I went I tried the vegan ramen, and tasted some of the wonton shoyu. The vegan ramen was so good! The cauliflower had this nice roasted flavor to it and the broth was so rich, you wouldn't think vegan broth could be rich and flavorful but this is! The only other place I've had vegan ramen is hironori, and I think both nail their vegan ramen. So if you like that one, this one is on par and unique in its own way. I love swapping the noodles for the thick noodles, and adding garlic + spicy paste to the broth. I tried a little of the shoyu and that was delicious and classic also. Located in a slightly unassuming plaza, this is a reliable ramen place that isnt too busy. Next time, I will definitely try the mazesoba. Recommend if your craving ramen in the garden grove area! read more

I tried this spot with my friend. She got the Tonkatsu and I tried the shrimp wonton shoyu. We also got the chicken karage and takoyaki. The shrimp wonton shoyu was actually pretty good! I loved the texture of the noodles and the flavor of the broth. Wontons were good too! The chicken karage was good but I realized it didn't come with a sauce. The takoyaki was really good! Flavor, texture, and good amount of octopus pieces inside! Service was great. Our server came back to refill our waters. And was considerate to ask if my friend wanted plastic utensils for her child (before we even asked). We came on a Saturday around 7 and there wasn't a wait. read more

Delicious mazesoba!!! Honestly, better tha menya hanabi... BOTH LOCATIONS. Menya's mazesoba was once my favorite. But after trying to mymen, my opinion has changed. The flavor of the mazesoba here is way more developed, as in the sauce balances each other out a lot more than the Menya one. After eating at menya, I always felt like i drank two tubs of butter. I do prefer the slightly more sweet flavor here since it's not overly salty which does overpower the menya dish. Be warned, it does take a while since it's just one sweet lady at the time of my review. She did the clean up, the table waiting, and cashiering. Basically a one man team. Super sweet tho, i'll come back. You've earned my praises, i'll never stop telling people what my favorite mazesoba place is!!! read more

I'm not sure why I never knew this restaurant existed even though I live so close to it??? Delicious mazesoba, filling portion, and excellent service--this will be one of my new go-to stop for a quick mazesoba craving fix. The ramens also look delicious! I usually see slices of chashu for mazesobas, but this restaurant serves them with minced meats, which I found to be equally delicious. It was nice to have meat in every bite. I was feeling ballsy and got a level 4 spice, and they gave me a whole grilled jalapeño--it was painful. I do not recommend it. read more

Attention Attention.... the best bowl of noodles in the OC does not have broth This little restaurant in a Strip Mall in Garden Grove has been open for a bit over a year. You walk in and are greeted by the lovely hostess with a smile ear to ear. My go to order (I have been here over 12 times) is Vietnamese Coffee, Mazemen, Wafu Cole Slaw, takoyaki or Chicken Karrage. And it has never let me down. They are consistent. I repeat, they are consistently Flavorful food, with friendly service and setting I enjoy when I need a pick me up.

Came here for the first time and tried the mazesoba and really enjoyed it! The noodles were chewy, toppings were pretty good and the sauce was delicious! The poached soft egg on top was mixed into the noodles and I ordered spicy red sauce because I like my noodles spicy! We also ordered couple appetizers and enjoyed the fried squid. Tofu had a mild flavor but wasn't anything too special. The bao buns were tasty and paired well with lychee and peach teas. I strongly recommend getting their flavored teas. The Shoyu ramen noodles had a good texture and my friend ate this with an extra side of fried burdock. I tried the broth and it was made well. The owners are super friendly and really care about their business. The price point at this restaurant is very fair, considering we are going through a huge inflation. This is an amazing small business in the heart of Garden Grove! read more
