We came to this place only because another restaurant had about 1.5 hour wait, but man, I’m happy we did. the broth and flavor of the umakara ramen i got was amazing! Spicy, rich and flavorful. The large portion was indeed large and I was satisfied. My wife got a miso ramen and she loved it just as much. Both ramen really hit the spot. We will definitely be back, definitely our go to ramen spot now!

I’ve tried many ramen in/near Irvine and this one is one of my favorite. I seldom give all 5 stars to a restaurant. I always have kitakata ramen with dried seaweed and a seasoned egg. The ban nai bowl has 1:1 meat rice ratio. The new product, cold ramen, released on 7/1/2023 tastes great. The soup tasted like soy sauce with ice cubes rather than the original broth, leading to a slightly salty but free of oil taste. The shashu has a wasabi and a piece of lemon on the side.

Easily the best ramen in South OC! Start with the pan-fried gyoza, get the juicy fried chicken, and then enjoy the melt in your mouth charshu and unique, made-from-scratch noodles. We’ve tried the rest, but keep finding ourselves coming back to the best!

My favorite place to eat ramen noodles. Their broth is tasty, not too salty and not greasy. The fresh noodles are delicious with perfect consistency and the meat is so good!

Highly recommended by my workmates so I decided to give it a shot. And sure enough it definitely did not disappoint. My favorite part about the ramen is that the noodles are homemade. Karaage was perfect too!

The staff was friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The ramen itself was delicious, especially the spicy miso that had just the right amount of heat. Just keep in mind that during busy periods, there may be a wait.

The ramen is insane here, I highly recommend this place! The servers are always nice, the place is clean, the food is amazing, and the prices are reasonable. I do have to warn you though, if it’s the weekend, be prepared to wait. Put your name down and have your phone in your hand at all times because the wait can either be 10 minutes or an hour. Other than that, if you love Guy Fieri and want to go to flavor town, go to Kitakita.
