Would come here for the spicy vegan ramen, but because of the price it wouldn't be a constant thing =========== Price is high, 2 ramens and a drink is $50 with tip. Amber 2/5 Pork had a nice char and wasn't sliced overly thin. Def tastes like fish with a salty, but not overly so broth.. noodles sucked up the soup which made it less palatable compared to the vegan creamy broth. Would I get it again? No cuz it didn't tickle my fancy. There's other soy sauce based ramen I enjoy. Spicy veggie one 4/5 Lighter than other creamy vegan broths, but still flavorful. This had lots of garlic in it which i appreciate. The noodles fare better with this soup and reminded me of the instant noodle ramen texture, seemed more eggy somehow. Tofu in it keeps you full. Service Fine, the spot was pretty dead on a Sunday afternoon as there was maybe 2 patrons in the restaurant. Bathroom was clean. read more

One of my fav spots for yummmmmmmmm ramen in SoCal; First tried it in DTLA and was so impressed that I had to def get the ramen again when I went to Tustin last weekend !! The fact that they do all vegan broth - means that they put lot of effort in their broth to taste good and hence beats all the other vegetarian ramen I've tried hands down !! Ambience is pretty chic along with stellar service. Love the vegetarian Bao also. Best thing is I could always stop by 3CAT right across from Rakkan Ramen !! read more

Convenient location at Tustin's The District. Their primary drawing point is the plant based soup/broth. On that note, it was excellent. I didn't feel like I was sacrificing on taste (depth or flavor). Plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. And plenty of parking. For me, where it fell short was that it was pricier than other ramen places for a similar product. It also tasted assembly line-ish -- which was corroborated by the kids in the kitchen who seemed to be building the ramen bowl. I was hoping for a more authentic experience and overall taste by chefs in the kitchen. read more

Came here for dinner as part of the OC Restaurant Week festivities. It was a rainy day so a steaming bowl of ramen was exactly what I needed. The staff was very friendly and we were seated right away. The place was clean and well-maintained. They had a dinner deal for 25$ which got you a choice of appetizer (chicken karaage or gyoza) and a bowl of ramen. I opted to start with the chicken karaage and got their Quartz ramen for my main dish. Chicken Karaage- The portion was generous for what is supposed to be a small serving. The chicken pieces were served fresh from the fryer. The breading was flavorful and crispy while the interior was soft and juicy. It came with a spicy mayo dipping sauce that gave it a little kick. Quartz Ramen- The base broth is creamy and comforting. It typically comes with chicken chashu but they kindly accommodated my request to substitute it to pork. The meat was tender and practically melted in the mouth. Roasted garlic chips, soft boiled egg, and broccolini gave a depth of flavor and texture to tie the dish together. Wonderful experience overall! read more

Always past by here while walking around The District and have been here 2 times. Overall the ramen is decent and taste has been consistent the both times I've been here. Food is good and can help satisfy a ramen craving, however I wouldn't say it's a go-to ramen place for me. Came here for lunch and dinner before and....unfortunately the main issue I have is with the service. I think the last time I went there was still a hiring notice on the front door but I do believe they should be more proactive with it. Both times I've been here the service is not great and there isn't enough people handling the front - especially when it gets busy. The Friday night we came was pretty packed and there was a wait. But you could visibly see the stress the front staff were having - and I'm sure the kitchen was also stressed out too. I saw some people waiting getting impatient and just wanted to sit down since there was a table available. Upon us getting seated it took a long time before someone could serve us. We were ready to order but no one was bothering to look our way since they were so focused on tables already dining. Eventually we flagged someone down and finally got to order. Getting waters was also a wait and just the overall experience felt so awkward because of how flustered the staff was. It was a little concerning too that they put in an order for another table that came after us too. This place is fine food wise - service can be hit or miss depending if you come during a busy time. read more

Likes: + The ramen is pretty enjoyable. Nothing special though. + Polite, helpful staff. + Plenty of indoor and outdoor open tables. + Ample parking on both sides. + Pleasant ambience and decor. Non-likes: - Small portion size. Despite ordering extra meat, I still needed to eat more food. - The pork chashu has little to no fat. - Exorbitant. My total here could come out to almost $30 and I'd still be hungry. - A ramen order only comes with only 2-3 slices of grilled pork. At almost $20 I would like 4-5 slices. - The ramen noodles are a little hard. - Not a wide range of healthy yummy drinks. Mostly generic high-sugar soda. - Extra $5 to order on 3rd-party apps (UE or DD). I had: $17.50 AMBER + $4 extra pork chashu + tax = $23.17 read more

OVERALL : We grabbed ramen here on a cold rainy afternoon after spending some time at The District in Tustin. This spot specializes in 100% plant based broths using ingredients such as shiitake mushrooms, dashi, carrots, ginger, etc. to produce a flavorful broth. They have a small focused ramen menu, along with some appetizers, sushi, and rice bowls. Service was quick and straightforward, and the store was clean! We didn't have any wait when we visited on a Sat later into the afternoon. PARKING : Located in the Tustin District! Park in the large shared parking lot that surrounds the entire shopping plaza and walk into the shopping area! FOOD/DRINKS : Garnet Ramen (Miso) - vegetable broth, sesame paste, grilled pork, seasoned veggies, green onion, seasoned egg, fried onion, thick noodles -- I enjoyed that the broth was plant based yet still creamy and flavorful. I didn't feel overly full / heavy afterwards, probably due to the vegetable aspect of the broth (less fatty!). It's nice to see that they offer vegan substitutions as well as subs between chicken and pork chasu too! The noodles were cooked well and not too soft, and I enjoyed the toppings included in the bowl. The pork (chasu) was not as tender as I would have wanted it to be, but I'm willing to give it another try and see if it was just that day! read more

Came here for my birthday lunch with my coworkers. Located at the District, parking was easy to find by the theater. We all ordered ramen, and it was pretty good. I wasn't expecting the broth to be good because the broth is vegetable based. I was surprised... it was rich and flavorful. Along with ramen, I ordered the 2-piece salmon and it was yummy. We also ordered the spicy cucumber and that was delish. Service was great. As soon as we were seated, they took our orders right away, and the food came out hot and timely. I'd come here again! Tip: Good value for the kids meal which comes with a side of fries, karage or gyoza for $10! Oh, and check in on Yelp and get a free soda! read more

Definite improvements that need be made. Went here on a Friday evening at the recommendation of a friend and was promptly seated. I like that this establishment offers a wide variety of vegetarian options to cater to different dietary needs. The restaurant is new, so the decor is modern with patio seating available. Went with the chicken kaarage and mazemen. Both were disappointing. The chicken was not fully cooked through and the mazemen was somehow overly salty without much additional flavor. I do appreciate the staff making a new order of kaarage after bringing this to their attention. The kitchen seemed disorganized as it took awhile for the food to arrive and the kitchen staff had started serving the food orders to keep up. Not sure if this was an understaffing issue or lack of training. Possibly both. My experience left much to be desired and I don't see myself coming here again. read more

Ordered the Pearl ramen. The noodles were good but clumped together upon serving, not sure if that's normal or not. The half-egg was so soft and yummy but served quite cold, not sure if that's also normal here. There were a few pieces of firm onion skin in my bowl that tasted like super bitter paper, so I had to take those out. Broth was a glassy-looking brownish hue with a light soy sauce flavor. You can taste the "veggie-ness" of the broth, too. Not as savory or salty as I would've liked, but it was still an enjoyable bowl of ramen. They forgot the broccolini in my friend's Quartz ramen and the salad greens in our karaage appetizer, maybe they ran out of them or were rushing due to the nearing closing time? They took us in at 8:30pm after we waited for a while and looked over the menu (they closed at 9:30pm that Thursday night). Seemed to be very short-staffed that night, but even though it took a while for us to get seated when it wasn't busy at all, our food came out pretty quickly. I honestly don't know if I'd return for the ramen, but I did like the karaage. We got the small size, which came with five sizeable pieces of dark meat, and everyone liked that the most. Maybe I'll get the karaage bowl or poke bowl next time. read more

Located in the District at Tustin Legacy, this is a perfect place to have Japanese ramen especially on a rainy day. The day I visited was quite chilly so I had to eat something that will not only warm my body but also heart. When I was about to enter the building, one couple came out and told me that they really enjoyed their meal that they recommend me trying any of their dishes, which I appreciated their opinion. The restaurant has a clean, chic and modern look with wooden chairs and tables, which gave that comfortable and warm Japanese ramen place vibe in Japan. The server was helpful explaining the difference of each ramen and she brought the food quickly one by one. Spicy Garnet broth was savory, thick and rich with right amount of spiciness and the fried garlic slices were bonus that enhanced the flavor. The noodles, chashu and the seasoned egg was tender and tasty that went well with the broth. I also enjoyed the fresh seared salmon sushi and crunchy chicken karaage very much since it was great with the noodle soup. read more

The first thing I have to start by saying is the service offered by Rachel S. was phenomenal. I need to do my best to avoid gluten and she really took her time to try and help me decide what the best choice would be.

It was a cold evening and we wanted something to warm our souls We hadn't been to the Tustin location, so we ventured in this direction and scoped out a few eateries before deciding on Rakkan Ramen and it was a great choice! From the brussel sprouts as an appetizer to the Quartz Vegan Rammen, delicious. I love the vegan options! Their broth is actually plant-based according to our sever that evening. I must say that the brussel sprouts were extremely greasy for my taste, it was still delicious Service was delightful and speedy. read more

I stopped by RAKKAN Ramen at The District in Tustin on a Thursday afternoon and had a fantastic experience! No wait time, which was a plus. I ordered the Garnet Ramen with added shrimp, along with the chicken and pork buns. The ramen was packed with layers of rich, savory flavor. The egg was perfectly cooked, the portion of noodles was generous, and there was a solid amount of meat, very filling overall. The buns were a standout as well. Sadly I forgot to take a picture. Super soft and airy with a delicious, well seasoned meat filling that was cooked to perfection. The interior of the restaurant was very clean, and the hostess was kind and welcoming, which made the visit even better. I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend! read more

Stopped by for a quick bite before heading in for our candle making class next door. Wasn't expecting much at all and was simply trying to take in some calories so I don't pass out during the class. But wow absolutely impressive ramen I have had ever. The dish I ordered was the spicy cream quartz which was a vegetable broth with chicken. Most of the other pork based broths are a bit salty for my palate and the shrimp based broth I've tried recently was the same salty flavor. The vegetable broth seems to be the base for most of their ramen sold here and boy it is perfect. Don't really know how to explain it but please just try it if you're in the mood for some ramen. In my humble opinion, the vegetable broth sold here should be the new base for all ramens. read more

Stopped by on a Friday evening around 5 pm. There wasn't anyone in front of me but it took about 5 minutes for the hostess to come out and seat me. Afterwards, the server didn't show up to take my order or ask for any drinks until I had to flag someone else down to get her attention. Service was kind of abysmal I'm not gonna lie. Ramen itself was pretty good. I liked the texture of the noodles a lot and the broth was flavorful although a bit salty for my taste. Although I'm not a fan when the egg is cold so that was unfortunate. read more

RAKKAN Ramen - Tustin - Ramen Near Me - Tustin, California

Solid ramen spot located at the District. I like that their ramen is a vegetarian base since I don't see any places specifically use this as their main soup base. It's nice and light - you might forget that you're having a vegetarian broth. Noodle texture is good and chewy while meats are well seasoned. I go for their Pearl ramen that has salt + umami soup base. It's good but I don't think the taste is super memorable though. It's been consistent each time I go which is nice. Wait times can be short or long depending on when you go. If you go during peak hours...you can expect a hit of a wait. Service is pretty average, but if you go during a busy time it gets pretty bad. The day I went only had 2 servers in the front which wasn't enough for them to handle. You can see how stressed out they were and they were so focused on trying to get tables cleaned they forgot about the people they seated. I did overhear a table waiting a pretty long time for a dish they never got. I think they eventually did get their food, but the looks on their faces showed they were displeased. Hoping the service here can be more consistent since it seems other yelpers had some great experiences here. read more

The fam and I wanted to eat here after a couple hours at Bowlero across the way. The dining room was at half-ish capacity so RAKKAN was able to seat our party of 9 right away for a late lunch on a Sunday. I've been to both the Redondo Beach and the Long Beach locations so even though I'm fairly familiar with their menu, there was a seasonal item that caught my attention: Spicy Curry Vegan Ramen. This blend of curry spices with miso sauce was tasty! It comes with mushrooms, corn, and tofu. It also comes with broccolini which was cooked in a way that made the broccolini head a bit crispy. Probably fried. There was also a slice of red and yellow bell peppers, and sliced fried garlic. I liked that the noodles were thin because this portion was huge! https://bit.ly/3VJMDY0 We also ordered a couple orders of Steamed Vegan Gyoza for the table which my family loved! Whatever spicy sauce it sits in really makes the dish. https://bit.ly/45vucJU Edamame was good on its own but elevated when we dipped it in the spicy sauce that the gyoza came in. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/rakkan-ramen-tustin-tustin?select=x0TG818i0eZ9M5YqiX0zwA Service was awesome!

This location currently has a partnership with The Alley in fountain valley, I'm not sure how long it is for, but after making a purchase at The Alley for boba the receipt said in the fine print that you may get a free bowl of ramen with the purchase of one equal or lesser value! In other words, BOGO ramen! Can't say no to that! The interior is well kept and the food comes out pretty quickly as does with most ramen places. I did notice that they are fairly understaffed so please do be nice to them! There was roughly two cooks, one busser and one host/waitress. Our ramen was very flavorful, go for spicy is you can! It's not super spicy but has a little kick to it. The reason for one star knocked off is specifically because the actual noodles that are used by default are super thin like they are instant ramen. I feel like I should not be able to tell that they are instant ramen noodles in a restaurant but the broth did attempt to hide it. read more

This ramen place is convenient if you're already in the area and moderately priced. Vegan options are also available. I feel like the customization is a bit limited based on the way the menu is priced though. Since it appears to be the same price if you select meat or vegan. I think the bowls presentation was nice. I liked the flavor of the grilled pork. Less amount of toppings compared to some other places but it is good enough. The broth was pretty good for a plant based broth. Overall it's good but nothing really noteworthy if you're a ramen enthusiast. read more

For a plant based broth ramen, the quality is decent and does not taste too greasy. My fiance and I came here for lunch on a Saturday, not crowded at all and got seats easily. They have various options of meat and plant based ramens+appetizers. All their broth is plant based. I got the vegan shoyu ramen ($17) and my fiance got the miso ramen and gyoza combo ($22). Make sure to check in on yelp to get a free soda! Plant Based Gyoza (7/10)-obviously real gyoza is better but the skin is crispy and kinda remined me of rice filled gyoza. Vegan Shoyu (8/10)-comes with tofu and mushrooms instead of chashu and egg, broth is def not as flavorful as meat based, but very light and thin noodles were cooked well. Miso Ramen (6/10)-bit too creamy and the chashu wasn't the best The portion is not overly huge so was able to finish the bowl. Overall not a bad ramen place with good selection of plant based dishes. Would love to try the other side dishes my next visit. read more

I was at the Farmer's Market at The District in Tustin, and I ended up at this restaurant because of a wonderful voucher that was offered at the Famer's Market. See photo attached. Although we tasted both the Quartz and the Pearl ramen entrees, I would recommend choosing the Quartz ramen. My preference for this dish was due to the thicker noodles, creamier broth, and the vegetable included (broccolini). The only thing I would customize next time I'm here would be to switch out the chicken for the pork in the Quartz entree. The Pearl ramen was still adequate, but I was not in the mood for a fishy flavor and I felt like the broth was a little too salty for my taste. The noodles were good, but, like I said, I preferred the thicker noodles that were put in the Quartz ramen. Also, I wish the Pearl ramen had a vegetable in it to make it a more well-rounded meal. I would skip the spicy cucumber. The seasoning/sauce that was put on the cucumber did not penetrate the cucumber and the cucumber was super thick (in my experience, the cucumber is usually more thin which makes it easier to grab and eat). The unique part about this ramen spot is that their broth is 100% plant-based. I appreciate this because when I eat food, not only do I want to enjoy the flavors but I prefer a healthier option. Sometimes ramen broths can be extremely salty and/or fatty which do not make me feel good afterwards. Rakkan Ramen's Quartz broth was flavorful, creamy and plant-based. MmmM umami! Miscellaneous notes: (1) The restaurant is a casual eatery. It is clean and tidy. (2) Parking was easy-- at least on Sunday morning. (3) Great location. There are other restaurants and activities surrounding this restaurant. read more

Wandered into Rakkan on a rainy weekend afternoon and was immediately swept away into a world of flavor. Rakkan has incredibly fast service -- we were sat and had our orders taken within minutes. We opted for spicy all around: in gyoza and ramen. Did NOT disappoint! What stood out to me the most about Rakkan was how tasty the pork was in their ramens. This is usually my least favorite part of any ramen, but it was my favorite part of Rakkan. On top of that, it was an incredibly well rounded bowl of ramen. Cooked speedily and to perfection! Can't wait to go back! read more

I think Rakkan was a decent spot for vegetarians who want to have ramen without sacrificing texture and flavor. There's plenty of seating and service was pretty quick. I'm not sure if I'd come back though. Quartz: Waiter personally recommended this. I think the broth was rich and savory. It definitely felt slightly creamier/richer than other broths I've had. The noodles were the other highlight being well-cooked so that they were bouncy and just a bit chewy. I was pleasantly surprised to be able to find more ramen after every mouthful. The rest of the toppings like the pork, broccolini and seaweed were a bit disappointing though. The pork was thankfully not cooked to the point of being dry but was still soft and easy to have. But it felt like I was eating a slab of chicken breast than your usual chashu. Maybe if they tried using thighs instead? Karage: There was a light crispy layer on the outside but inside was a bit too dry. Not bad though. Furikake Fries: Skip this one honestly. Just felt like plain fries from anywhere. The furikake didn't really add any flavor to the fries. A bit disappointing. Ambiance: wants to feel bougie but the sticky menu said otherwise read more

I can promise that this ramen spot is very consistent. I came back and ordered the same ramen as the first time (vegan spicy garnet), and it was just as delicious as I remembered it. I am a big fan of the prominent garlic flavor. I also tried the amber (salt-based) ramen, which was also very tasty. This is a good choice for when you're not in the mood for something so rich and creamy. I still prefer the spicy garnet to this one, since the miso soup has more of an umami and garlicky flavor to it. I am very intrigued to try the pearl (soy sauce-based) ramen! I tried the vegan steamed gyoza for the first time, and I LOVED it! The sauce is pretty much the same spicy miso taste as the spicy garnet ramen, but a little more flavorful/concentrated. There was a thin layer of dough, but it wasn't too fragile which made it easy to pick up the gyoza. I loved the fried garlic and scallion toppings which added texture to the dish. I will certainly order this again when I come back! read more

Good ramen here! I found this place on yelp and decided to give it a try. I got the spicy garnet ramen (Vegetable broth, sesame paste, spicy miso, grilled pork, black pepper, green onion, bamboo shoots, seasoned egg*, fried garlic with RAKKAN noodles) with 5 pieces of gyoza and both were good.

Compared to Japan, both the noodles and soup felt quite different, but the flavor was delicious. I didn't feel like it was very filling.

I went to this restaurant with my brother because he said that the one he tried in LA was really good. It turned out to be such a disappointment because the soup was salty, oily, and filled with so much garlic flavor. They really need to reconsider adjusting the garlic amount in the ramen. I am a big fan of garlic but this is just too much. I feel like I was eating garlic rather than ramen. The staff is nice but the waiting is long from waiting to get your order in and making it. Overall, I won't recommend this restaurant, at least this branch. read more

Nice waiter, pretty basic looking and clean place. Smelled great walking in. But.... I didn't like the ramen. I thought the broth was strange tasting and the noodles were kind of wheat-y. The egg and the bamboo shoots were both super cold which didn't really work well in ramen. Those noodles were kind of grainy and some were even stuck together. Just not fresh tasting. The gyoza was ok, but that was the only thing we liked. read more

For someone who prefers pork broth, this place isn't bad. I appreciate the thoughtfulness and detail behind the ingredients of this place, but it just didn't hit the way my usual ramen places do. I ordered the spicy quartz ramen. The pork was not good (I tried it on the side), but if you choose the chicken as your topping, it immediately ups the dish by 2. The noodles were overly hard still and the broth wasn't hot upon being served. We also tried the steamed spicy vegan gyoza appetizer and that was good and had flavor. Overall, for a ramen place, I wouldn't be able to justify paying these high prices for the taste. Friendly service and very clean restaurant. read more

I ordered the Roasted Garlic Tomato Ramen vegan with added Green Onion and it was absolutely delicious. I loved the creamy delicious broth and am so grateful this restaurant had so many vegan options. I would like to come back to try the other ramen broth as my friend had that one and really liked it. When they brought the water out one of the glasses wasn't clean so we let our server know and she said she would bring a new glass. It took quite a long time for our server to come back. And overall the server was super nice but she was the only server for the whole restaurant inside and outside which made service slow and it was hard to get her attention. Just to be clear not her fault the owner of the restaurant should have staffed another server and she did the best she could. read more
