Ramen Nippon - Los Angeles

My first time visiting, and I wasn't disappointed. Very delicious ramen.

Ramen Nippon is one of our local favorites! The staff here is wonderfully friendly, welcoming and very courteous. The great thing is, it's been Iike this for many years! The food here is outstanding. Excellent quality food and portions with affordable prices. We can't get enough of whichever broth we select here! Tonight we had the Edamame, Chashu Ramen and Curry Rice. There was so much food, we had to take a doggie bag home. The edamame came out perfectly steamed and lightly salted. The Chashu Ramen has a Shoyu-based broth. It was light and flavorful. The meat was tender and paired well with the scallions, egg and bamboo shoots. The Curry Rice has a flavor you can't shake. The curry alone has a delicious, spiced flavor to it that I can't describe. The rice has a southern comfort feel to it due to the grain used much like a rich, sticky rice texture. This is definitely one of our favorite spots and we will be back. The only downfall would be parking since it is located caddy-cornered in a tiny shopping center with a few parking spaces. You will have to find street parking. Other than that, we can't wait until our next visit!

I’ve been visiting Ramen Nippon since they opened back in the 90’s. I always order the wakame ramen, gyoza and fried rice. They use egg noodles for their wakame ramen to give its unique taste and chewy consistency while the broth is balanced just right with salt and clear chicken broth. Some fresh cucumbers, sesame seeds, boiled chicken green onions, and wakame make the soup complete. The gyoza filling is on point and the bottoms are perfectly pan fried each time. The fried rice is flavored just right with char shu and complimented with pickled ginger and zasai. The most fascinating part about the dishes is they’ve been able to replicate it every time since I’ve visited for the past 20+ years. The only thing I wish they did was expand to open more places, but i suppose quality control would drop if they did so. It’s my to go spot when I’m in the valley

Let me start off by saying, I've never had real ramen before. This was my first time trying it. A friend from work who's into the culture recommended this spot because its a 5 minute walk from my house. I placed the order for pickup on the phone today and I regret not doing this sooner. He recommended I get the spicy miso ramen with double pork and egg. I also picked up some gyoza. Boy oh boy was I in for a treat. All in all I spent more or less about $20. When I got to the house I realized this was enough food for 2 adults. Or in my case, I'll be able to enjoy this delicious ramen tomorrow for lunch as well. I'm writing this as I am sitting at the table happily staring at my food that's how happy I am with this experience. I have to admit, I went in my pajama pants and a t-shirt to this place not thinking much of it. It's a lot fancier than I thought it would be. It's actually really nice. Next time I have ramen I will be eating in. It looked nice and cozy place. The customer service was fantastic. Overall a very pleasant experience. Literally nothing bad I can say about the place.

After having their ramen, no other ramen will compare. It’s just perfect! Their curry rice, fried rice, and gyoza are delicious, too!
