    Salmon Sampler
    Neal T.

    I feel like the sushi keeps getting better here, we try other spots like I Luv Sushi or when traveling and when we come back here it's like wow this is really good. The presentation is great too. Plenty of parking, a great happy hour 3-7 and lots of other options for people who don't like sushi. Their mango sticky rice when available is also amazing. Service is always quick and pleasant. If you're looking for uncrowded and unpretentious sushi that tastes like it should be pretentious, this is the place. Had the salmon sampler and some unagi both were delicious.

    The food is very tasty, went at happy hour so tried their small ramen options and rolls, unique Thai soup base flavor and very interesting touch, a fusion of Japanese and Thai :) Service is decently on point and reasonable fast, can bring some sauces before hand to accelerate the process also but overall very attentive! Ambiance is like a normal diner with some cute Asian design and paintings, pretty relaxing and good to have conversations, some restaurants are too nosy to chat, this place offers a good place to social while having some unique and tasty food!

    My husband and I went to around Long Beach, looking for a hidden gem in Signal Hills. One block of the place, we found this restaurant. They have tables outside. The restaurant is really cool inside, we stayed out because our dog with us. The service is very friendly, fast, and food is great! They have Thai and Japanese plates. Good deals in the menu. They have parking lot, because it is hard to park around.

    Tom Kha Ramen

    Decided to give this place a try as it was a Japanese Thai fusion. It wasn't busy at the time of arrival so service was speedy and the staff were attentive and friendly. The place is big that is great for large parties and it was festive just in time for the holidays. I had the Tom Kha ramen and the King of Kings roll during happy hour. The ramen was average nothing really stood out in the dish, but the King of Kings roll was full of flavor. If you're looking to try something new, give this place a try.

    My Husband And I First Time Here. We Ordered The Red Curry With Rice, Dragon Roll, King Of King, Tuna, Salmon, Mackerel & Yellowtail Nigiri. Everything Was Edible But Didn't Give Me That Satisfaction I Was Craving For. Service Was Great But She Did Forget One Of My Order Which Was The Sashimi Mix, But It Was Ok I Just Asked Her To Canceled It From The Check. Would I Eat Here Again, No But It's Great For People Who's Exploring Sushi For The First Time.

    Spicy Miso Ramen

    I'be been coming here many times, and ever since I tried the miso ramen it's been my absolute favorite. The flavor is the best ever rich, comforting, and so delicious. This place never disappoints!

    Coconut milk ramen

    I allowed myself to get carried away by all the enthusiastic reviews, so I arrived with high expectations. I eagerly anticipated the Thai ramen to blow me away, but I stayed put. What's equally unexpected was how good the sweet mango rice was. I am glad that my son ordered that dessert for us to share. The ramen wasn't bad, but I expected more from the broth. It's easy to get ramen at many places in Long Beach, but ramen with a Thai twist was certainly novel. I was hoping for more exotic spices, and it came up more mundane. I also expected more customers on a Sunday evening, but the relatively large indoor dining area only had a few tables occupied. I think the post-pandemic surge in restaurant dining has significantly ebbed. Service was both attentive and efficient. We placed our orders right away, and we didn't have to wait long for our food. There was plenty of parking in their private lot, but making a left turn going westbound from PCH could get a bit tricky.

    Came here on a Saturday around 3:30pm to pick up from mobile order. Parking lot available. No wait to get my food. Plenty of space to sit and service was quick and friendly! Ordered the wonton soup it was tasty broth had flavor and shrimp were big. Also got the crunch roll it was filling and tasted fresh. Thai tea was on the sweeter side but good. Overall, would come again to try other thing on the menu!

    Tom Kha Ramen

    My friends and I stumbled upon this place while looking for a restaurant to grab some ramen for late lunch. Shin was amazing! I highly recommend their Tom Kha ramen and their sushi. We have since gone several times, and every time (including late at night) our server was also very accommodating.

    Tom Yum Ramen
    Isaiah C.

    Tom yum ramen was so good!!! Perfect blend of Japanese and Thai flavors. Quick and friendly service too. I will be back to try the Tom kha!!

    I've been going to Shin before they became Shin. It was my go to sushi spot 10 years ago and so happy I got to experience it with my son who has been curious about this place. The restaurant is an establishment on its own with their own parking lot. It's not in a plaza shared with other businesses which I can appreciate because I don't come across many restaurants like this. There's plenty of seatings outdoor and indoor. Their restroom needs a little TLC. I love that they offer Happy Hour 3p-7p. My son and I ordered the cheese wontons which was completely different than what I was expecting which was the cream cheese wontons. These wontons were made with actual cheese and tempura. We ordered the 3 roll $35 combo and ordered crunchy, super cal and king of kings - we were pleased with all. We got the pleasure of being served by Tammy who I recognized from years ago. She offers great customer service, very accommodating.

    Chicken Katsu Don Bowl

    Had a great experience at Shin Restaurant. The service was friendly, the restaurant was clean, and the food did not disappoint. We ordered the chicken katsu don bowl and Tom Kha ramen, both full of flavor. But the real surprise was the yellowtail hand roll--fresh, delicious, and sneaky good! Easily one of the best I've had in Long Beach, and this place can hold its own against any local sushi spot. Highly recommend checking it out!

    Eskimo Poke
    Chelsea C.

    This place is highly underrated because they produce very good sushi. Its in no way authentic to Japan, but its the type of sushi you want when you need your fix. Our poke bowl was complete with a generous portion of thick cubes of fish. Its felt simple, its no frills, and the interior has a wooden rustic charm.

    This tiny ramen shop was such a wonderful experience. I tried it for the first time today and was…read moresurprised by how close together every thing was in the dining area. I felt welcomed by the cool tones of the interior design and layout actually. We waited by the door as a party of two. Not too long after we entered were we greeted by the hosted and seated outdoors, as we requested. Even though it is on fourth street which has plenty of street traffic, it was still a quiet, comfortable dining experience. Every thing on the menu looked and sounded amazing but I planned to try the ramen because I've been craving a good bowl of ramen for a while. I landed on the shoyu ramen with tofu. I really enjoyed the taste of the broth. The flavor and seasoning was soul-healing. I don't usually go with plain chicken broth in ramen but I felt confident in my choice. I was literally happy dancing with each bite. The ramen was so good! My partner went with a spicy order of tonkotsu ramen with chicken, garlic, and black oil sauce. I tried parts of it and it was also delicious! I wanted to try the sushi but did not have that big of an appetite for both sushi and ramen so I opted for the salmon poke tacos. They tasted very savory and the salmon was flavored really well. The temperature and consistency was not too overwhelming for the tacos shell. The service was attentive and not too invasive. We took the check to the counter to pay. I am excited for our next trip here. It is dangerously walking distance for us! PS they have a sign that says they are hiring a dishwasher for Saturday and Sunday!

    The calamari was the highlight--nicely cooked, not overly salty, and genuinely enjoyable, although…read morethe dipping sauce was just alright. The gyoza wasn't bad overall, but the wrappers were a little too thick, the dipping sauce was forgettable, and it tasted like it may have been frozen. The spicy tonkotsu was pretty good. The spice level worked well, there was a slight hint of miso in the broth, and it was served at the right temperature. The pork belly was a little tough though. The portion reflects the price point. The place has a slightly unusual layout where the staff may not notice you immediately, but once they do, service is fast and friendly. The setup is also perfect if you enjoy sitting by the window and watching the street while you eat. Overall, Jounetsu Ramen doesn't disappoint, but compared to LA's heavy hitters, the ramen still has ways to go.

    This was one of the best ramen spots we tried during our Long Beach trip…read more The tonkotsu ramen had a rich, creamy broth that wasn't overly salty, and the noodles had a great texture.

The restaurant is clean, modern, and has a relaxed atmosphere. Service was friendly, and the food came out quickly even though the place was busy.

It was good with flavorful broth that wasn't overly-salty. It just didn't hit the spot and had me desiring more. It's some of the best ramen in LB, but the value is lacking, so everything including lemons is an additional charge. They also tack on a 17.68% service charge for their operation since it's a non-tipping, cashless establishment. The service was good, but the operation is business first, restaurant second.

    Came back with a group of six (3 Koreans, 3 Filipinas) to try their newish KBBQ grill-your-own…read moremeats on their covered outdoor front patio. Service was excellent, food amount was generous, and taste was OK...though the KBBQ doesn't really compare well to the ones in K-Town or Garden Grove. Four of us had never been here before, so came on a Wednesday late morning, as soon as they opened at 11am. There is dedicated parking behind the restaurant, where we found spots for our two cars. We were the first customers for the day, and picked a table for six in the front. It was right next to the busy sidewalk (which folks use their bicycles and motorized scooter on), so wouldn't choose this spot next time. But since we wanted to try their KBBQ for six, it was the only spot available. The grill is a typical set-up that you can do at home, with a portable butane canister and a caldron style grill (kinda out of fashion to use as KBBQ these days, especially outside). The party let me order, so ended up getting the following. 1 Seoul Sunrise Fish Bowl ($25) - an agave infused orange, pineapple, grenadine, and soda cocktail with a whole chamisul bottle of soju. Really a nice sight that all of us tried, and we agreed that it was refreshing for a humid day like this day. Moo's Combo (Large for $140) - it had Prime Brisket, Beef Belly, ribeye bulgogi (other choice being Prime Flat Iron), prime kkotsal boneless short rib (other choice being prime marinated boneless galbi). It comes with Corn Cheese (decent), rice cake skewers (good), crispy pork dumpling (kind you buy from h-mart, and cooked well), a small pre-dressed salad, and various banchan. I asked for rice paper (which they were bigger), and each person got a series of 3 dipping sauces (none of them memorable). All the meat came at once, and had to be grilled individually. Because it was warm outside, a lot of the meat became room temperature. The meat quantity was great (more than I expected), but the quality was just OK and nobody at the table really praised the taste too much. For me, it was OK and would try something else on their menu next time. Popcorn Five Spice chicken wings ($17) - on their collaboration menu with Midnight Oil, enjoyed by my wife and her mom. Scallion Pancake ($15.99) - it was OK, a large amount with 6 generous slices...just wish it was a lot thinner, with more scallions and crispiness. 2 Orders of Busan Mackerel ($9.99 each) - I had gotten this last time, and really liked it, so wanted to share with my other Korean dining partners. It was just OK this time, not as crispy as before. Note that it has a lot of pin bones that weren't all removed. We were able to refill the banchan and I took advantage for my favorites. I really like the kimchi here, and will always eat a lot of the fish cake (which I really like here). They use Toast as the POS, and the large bill was accurate, including a 18% gratuity since we were a party of six. What I really liked about it, was that even though it was very slow (we were the only customers dining in so early in the afternoon), the service and food quality was the same as what I would expect at a busier time. And their menu is as diverse and varied as any I've seen at Korean restaurants. Overall a good experience: would try their lunch specials next time, sitting inside.

Restaurant is packed, so place resos if possible. Food here is absolutely delicious. Notable dishes for me are the Pad See Ew with the giant shrimp and the Salmon Larb. Pad See ew had such a good wok fry essence. So flavorful, and perfect blend of savory and slight sweetness. Chinese broccoli nicely wok fried. The shrimp was jumbo and so succulent. Salmon Larb was perfectly cooked with fried cubes of juicy flavorful salmon. Tossed in fresh mint, cilantro, scallions, a ton of fresh lime juice, chili flakes, red onions and lettuce. The toasted rice powder was definitely apparent as every Larb dish should have. Slightly different take of Larb, bit more modernized and tweaked cause definitely a salad with the lettuce versus served with the cabbage and cucumber on the side. I don't think you can go wrong with what you order. Definitely fusion of authentic with a modernized American feel. Cocktails were excellent and recommend their Tamarind Spicy drink, don't remember the name but it was so good. Unfortunately no photos cause we weee hungry and just cleared out the food as it came out. Service is straight forward. We got what we needed with a bit wait due to the fact the place is BUSY!
