First time having the infamous "silverlake ramen" Most of the time donkotsu can be too salty but it was perfect I didn't have to add hot water. Fast service. Clean. AC blasting artic level with freezing cold Sapporo. Thank you for great food. read more

Plenty of parking. Restaurant was clean. Service was really slow. There were 2 other people here when we arrived so there was no reason for me to wait to order or to wait for the bill. The 2 kids serving, one male, one female were chatting their lives away in front of the kitchen AND enjoying their lunch. Should wait staff be eating in front of the customers? The food was fine, nothing spectacular. It's obvious they're don't need my money so I probably won't be back. read more

My food tasted wonderful and I really enjoy the atmosphere!!! This location is nice, local, with attentive service.

Ordered to go online. App wasn't that great, it would of better if it let you know when it's ready. It hits have a time frame. When I went to pickup my food my appetizer was cold. Place was cold on a rainy night. I definitely wouldn't want the place to be hot but warmer than it was. When I went to pick up my order I was asked if I placed an order to go and pointed to where I should pick it up. Food was ok. Broth was warm, for a Togo order I think it should be a lot hotter. Noodles and meat were ok. I like thicker noodles these are on the thinner side. When I tasted the broth it was kind of bland. Had to hot sauces to make it better. Overall I would say it's ok. But if you had any of the better Ramen/Pho shops I think you would not be satisfied. read more

Our waitress Veronica was amazing. Incredible service and great food. Will be coming again

I've always heard pretty solid reviews about this place and was excited one opened up near us in Downey. I show up at 5:00 on a Saturday night and the place is already super crowded. Luckily I was ordering to-go so I bypass the line and use the kiosk provided. I will say, the combo deal is the way to go. I personally got the blaze with a pork bun. Great deal for $20. My wife had the classic with the gyoza. The interior of the restaurant was nice. Very hustle and bustle but I would expect that from any good ramen shop. Now the food. The ramen was great. There wasnt too much excessiveness. No one trying to be super fancy. Just good ramen. The pork buns were a perfect combination of sweet and savory. Cooked to perfection. I would argue the best appetizer was the karaage. I'm not a big fried chicken guy but they use thigh meat which has a juiciness and richness that delivers. The batter is light and a little sweet. Overall a good experience and close to a 5 but I'm going to give them a 4. Probably one of the better ramen shops I've been to. read more

She was so professional and helped us with our choices for our first time. Everything was great, service & food. We will definitely be going back again soon! read more

This establishment is next to Diosa. I do not eat Ramen, but the boy knows his ramen and this has been his favorite ramen spot for a few years. We frequently visit the Cerritos location and I'm happy that we now have one in Downey. What do I eat there? I start off with a delicious pork bun. Marinated pork belly with pickled onions it's so good. Then I usually have a spicy tuna bowl. I appreciate the fresh mixed greens on my tasty bowl. I like that you can get a combo some people with bigger appetites may not get full with a bowl of ramen so you can add some gyozas with it. We will be back. read more

So excited to finally have a Silverlake in Downey! I'd always have to make a trip to cerritos to enjoy so I'm happy to have one nearby. Overall, food was good and service was sharp! I really liked how this location also has more seating available than Cerritos, was definitely a lot roomier. Spicy tuna appetizer was delicious, and my Ramen was great too! Chicken could have used a bit more flavor and my friends' pork was tough- but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt since they are currently soft opening! Will definitely be trying again soon. read more

Came here for my lunch break and was seated quickly at the bar. It was pretty busy but it was. rainy day so I am sure everyone wanted ramen. They unfort did not let me sub my corn for bamboo shoots like most other ramen places but other than that, the ramen was super good and flavorful. Spice was not too strong, would def return! read more

Our family went for my birthday celebration because ramen is life! We had been to the original location in the city of silver lake and it was amazing. Sunday night we went for dinner there was about a twenty minute late because of an event going on in the neighborhood. We were seated, and they took our order and the server was actually really nice. However, she never checked back in with us and my daughter and her boyfriend's sushi and appetizer never came out. We had all ordered extra appetizers, so they ate off of that, but then they had to go get a burger afterwards, because they didn't get any dinner. No apology. Nothing. Granted, they ordered sushi at a ramen place but there's a dedicated sushi chef there. I will be ordering my ramen to go from now on. read more

Really excellent experience, and great customer service. Really great food served here. We always come to the Downey location because the food is always great and they also have the lunch special ! read more

Honestly not bad. Great vibe. Pleasant servers. Super fast receiving of food. If you plan to order and then chit chat a bit with friends you are out of luck. Food comes out within minutes. Super tasty food. Not much by way of addendums once the ramen comes to you. I didn't ask for hot sauce or things like that but I did notice the table was pretty sparse. Only napkins and chop sticks. I had to ask for a fork since I honestly don't know how to use those twigs to eat. lol. All in all the food was great. The pan fried gyoza were a bit soft and spongy but not too bad. Maybe not as tasty overall compared to some places in Cerritos but not bad overall. They do serve beer and soju and sake if you want that. read more

I came to this location after visiting the la habra location. I tried the shoyu ramen but it was a bit too salty. Also, I think the classic has better flavor. The pork was a bit burned, tasted like chicharron. This location is much bigger but the service was not that great. It was kind of tough waving our server down. read more

The food was delicious, but unfortunately the service left a lot to be desired. This was my first visit, so I'm not sure if this is the usual flow here, but the only interaction we had with our waitress was when they took our order. One of our items was missing, and I had to flag down another employee who happened to make eye contact and was kind enough to help. After that, no one checked on our table. We never received water refills, weren't offered to-go containers, and our check wasn't brought to us. I eventually had to ask for it from across the room. To top it off, the bill eventually came with a pre-suggested 18% tip despite the lack of service, HARD PASS. read more

This location has been my go to for lunch, I like the variety of items that I can order. I mix it up from the rices bowls, ramen to the appetizers. I do miss having the option to place my order on the app for 11:15 pick up. The service is always great, the staff is friendly and attentive. The decor is clean and calming. The food always delivers for me, I like that they offered a new rice bowl dish. read more

My boyfriend and I decided to try this spot after hearing great things about it. He really enjoyed his ramen (though I can't recall which one he ordered) and said the gyozas were also good. For me, the experience was more in-between, I didn't love it, but I didn't dislike it either. Since I don't eat meat, it can be tough to find a vegan ramen with rich flavor. That said, this spot offers one of the better vegan ramen options I've had when considering flavor, portion size, and price. We shared the seasoned egg, it was good, but nothing out of the ordinary. The highlight of the meal was definitely the creamy broccolini, which the waiter recommended, it was a 10/10 and absolutely amazing! I also tried the Impossible bun, which was good, but nothing particularly special. Overall, a solid spot, especially if you're looking for vegan ramen. For reference, we went on a Sunday evening, and the photo of my food was taken at 9:25 p.m. By that time, the staff was already cleaning up and putting chairs up to prepare for closing. While we were waiting for our food, other guests were being turned away. read more

This particular spot is not as good as other locations I had. Decent ramen but I've had better. It's a decent sized location, but still felt a bit cramped. read more

Ordered through Postmates and they often don't send the best quality food but it was acceptable until today I was sent an spoiled egg, I paid extra to get another egg added to my ramen to only taste it and it was absolutely sour and disgusting. I have stomach ache as I'm writing this. Postmates didn't refund me and that's ok but I hope the store personnel reads this so they stop sending spoiled food to other customers. read more

Love their sushi rolls and the service is great!! The people are very welcoming and surroundings are calm and peaceful!!

First time at this location last night. The food was great! The service was good. The ambiance is modern. It can get loud depending on how many customers. I highly recommend the shoyu ramen with chicken. As for apps, I enjoyed the fried chicken karaage and fried pot stickers. We just walked in, no reservations but keep in my mind places like this do get busy so depending on the time you go you might wait a little. read more
