    Tonkatsu ramen
    Carrie W.

    Such a cool vending machine for all your Asian food needs. It heated up my Tonkatsu ramen quickly in a matter of a couple of minutes. The entire dish taste and presentation was so impressive for fast food ramen. I mean look at the egg and all the toppings that come with it. It truly satisfied my craving for ramen. Yo Kai express is such a cool concept and I wish all airports have this!

    Hmm should I try it?

    I passed through Ontario Airport sometime last year. I had a lot of time before my flight, and I had just eaten (darn!). I bookmarked this place during that trip, when I noticed a vending machine-looking contraption in a small vestibule. Hmm, what's that? Ramen? Huh? I checked out Yelp because someone had to review it if someone was brave enough to try it and hopefully liked it. Hmm! And sure enough, a flight attendant (ok, I have to trust their judgement because I'm sure they try all kinds of food all over the place!), and this flight attendant loved it! Ok, bookmark that for next time! During a recent trip, I remembered my bookmark and was totally curious! Ok, I looked at the menu and I picked the Tonkatsu Ramen. I heard some noise inside the machine, so something was definitely brewing. I waited a few minutes, and my ramen came out piping hot. I carefully removed it from the little door, and happily carried it away to try. Woo, it was nice and hot, the noodles were chewy and just right, the broth was so tasty, and I loved the pork and all the toppings (fish cake, green onions, corn, mushrooms) - mmm! It was literally the best bowl of ramen I had in a long time! Wow! I cannot wait to try something else from this little vending machine. It's a must try! Don't be scared!

    This machine is awesome. I got a Ramen. The only problems is that you need 2 hands and a table to eat your ramen. There are little to none of these areas to eat at the Ontario airport. Also, is this machine gone from Terminal 4? I went on a trip recently and it was no longer in the original spot

    Digital touch screen to order.

    I have to admit, when I first saw this at the airport, I was a bit apprehensive what the quality would be for a $12-14 bowl of noodle soup. Excited to tell everyone, I was wrong. We ordered the Taiwanese beef noodle soup and the broth was good, fragrant. The beef was tender and noodles held well. Comforting bowl of noodles and impressive coming from vending machine. They offer about 3-4 different types of ramen, Vietnamese beef pho, Taiwanese beef noodle soup, and Korean jjamppong seafood soup.

    Spicy kimchi miso ramen

    As a flight attendant I get to fly into all kinds of places and try new things, but noodles from a vending machines were something I hadn't expected to see outside of japan! Unfortunately my first encounter with it ended with me not buying any because I was still full from dinner earlier but I saw on my schedule that I was flying in again in about a week and decided to wait until then to give it a go and man am I glad I skipped dinner and tried this out. I have legitimately had dine in restaurants that don't have noodles as good as this machine! I ordered the spicy kimchi miso ramen and didn't stop eating until even the broth was gone. If I ever fly here again I will be trying the other flavors as well. If you have a layover and are getting hungry you can't go wrong with giving this thing a shot!

    Black garlic tonkotsu

    Ok I was skeptical, but this is actually really good. The noodles were super chewy, meat was tender, broth was flavorful. I was shocked. I think it was only $12 too, which is CHEAP for airport food. If you're picky, it's not customizable. It lists the ingredients before you buy though. Just be careful, they warn you it's hot and IT IS HOT!!! Even after stirring and blowing for awhile I still burned my tongue on the first bite. But I was impatient. I got the black garlic tonkotsu. Worth a try.

    Loved this ramen & pho we got to have while waiting for our extremely delayed flight. Made our bellies full and happy as we traveled. Such a neat product to serve :)

    Convenient and cheaper option at the airport. It was really hot and needs to be careful to carry.

    Completely inedible and nauseating. Had to throw out my bowl after one bite. Machine is cool but the food is old and rancid.

    What a hidden gem!! It's nestled on the left side of the shopping center. Walking in I was…read moreinstantly greeted and told I could sit anywhere! There is a kiosk and menus if you're in a hurry and want to order to-go. The space is small but quaint; I like the simplicity and natural wood/textures throughout. Lots of beverage options with and without alcohol, so I opted for the yuzunade...it's exactly as you'd imagine and so refreshing. The crispy rice with spicy tuna had the perfect balance of sweet and spicy, and soft and crunchy. Note: Don't be like me and underestimate the size of it and put the whole thing in your mouth, I bit the second one in half I also ordered the cucumber and crab salad, which was a little different but yummy. Kinda wish it had a little sauce or marinade on the cucumbers. Opted for the tonkotsu ramen...DELICIOUS!! The noodles were perfectly cooked and the broth?! The broth warmed my soul. I did add a side of garlic and it's almost whipped? But don't quote me on that! You have to save room for the yuzu cheesecake. The table next to me got the mochi but I didn't have enough room in my tummy for both! Just a note, there is a service fee of ~8% and ~17% tip added, but you are unable to add an additional tip unless you leave cash because the staff was incredible!

    Came here for some Ramen. Its a really small spot. Fortunately we got in before the rush and…read moresnagged the last table. Wait times after us was long due to them being short staffed and behind on their orders. But they did comp 1 order of our crispy rice with spicy tuna. We ordered their : 1. Crispy rice with spicy tuna. They were so good. We initially ordered their 2 peice, then ordered another 3 peice. Loved the crunchy rice. Spicy tuna was eeally good. Minimal heat on it. I really do like the flavors though. They were really good. 2. Pork buns were good also. I love how pillowy soft the buns were. Good flavors. Pork was soft. Not dry at all. 3. Shoyu Ramen- being known for their Ramen, I have to honestly say I wasent blown away by it. It was ok. The broth seemed very 1 note. The meat in there was tough. Noodles were good. And the soft boiled half of an egg was good too. We tried several of their drinks. The cucumber mint was really good. Crisp and light and refreshing. I would order that one 100% again. Their pina colada though could use some work. It was not that good at all. We also ordered their yuzu sake jello shot. Comes in a closed can. We didnt follow the directions on the can. But make sure you shake it a lot of times before opening it to break up the jelly in there. It was an experience to try it. Overall it was good. Glad to try it. Very kind and understanding staff. They were working so hard. The Ramen I got was a miss. But the crunchy rice with spicy tuna is to die for. And make sure you order their cucumber mint drink. You wont regret it!!

    Tasty ramen with short rib!…read more The ramen was so good--especially the short rib on top! It was super tender and full of flavor. The broth was rich and delicious too. Service was great! The staff were very friendly and helpful. I'll definitely come back again.

    The food at Yoshiharu Ramen in Chino Hills is genuinely solid. I tried the ramen and the broth was…read moreflavorful and satisfying, though it does feel a bit expensive for what you get. One thing to keep in mind is that the bowls don't automatically include the salted egg, so you'll have to shell out a few extra dollars if you want that classic topping. While the meal itself was a hit, the logistics of the meal were a bit more frustrating. The service was fairly lackluster and felt mostly absent; we waited quite a while for attention, and the overall pace was very slow. It's the kind of place where you have to be proactive if you need a refill or the check. Additionally, the cleanliness of the restaurant is a major concern. Everything felt "sticky" from the tables to the floors and the bathrooms were definitely not well-maintained. It's hard to fully enjoy a premium-priced meal when the environment feels a bit neglected. On a brighter note, the location is very convenient. Since it's tucked into a large strip mall, parking is incredibly easy and stress-free, which isn't always the case in Chino Hills. If you are a "food first" person who doesn't mind a bit of grit and slow service, the ramen is worth a try, but the management could definitely step up the cleaning
