    Wow I was blown away by the chicken teriyaki bowl here. The menu isn’t big - it’s focused around ramen, but I’m more of a rice person than noodles so I got the chicken teriyaki rice bowl. They have a mini size which is half the price of the regular. The chicken teriyaki was heavy on the sauce for me (hence the four stars, good to ask for lighter next time) but it was delicious! The price wasn’t bad either. The seating area is on the smaller and tighter side but it’s a clean restaurant and the server was nice. It has a modest and humble storefront but the quality of the food is great. The parking lot it’s located in - Honda plaza - is free on Sundays but can get packed around lunch time. It’s a nice spot for a less crowded place (Japanese village plaza is more crowded). Overall I had a pleasant experience here — glad I tried them!

    My families favorite ramen spot in LA! We always order their chicken karaage for appetizer and the spicy tonkatsu ramen is my favorite flavor. If you don’t like too much spice you can always get the regular tonkatsu and get the spicy miso ball on the side so you can choose how hot you want it to be!Service is always quick and the waiters are nice. We’ve never had a wait for a table either so that’s a plus. They also validate parking for the lot so you can get a discounted rate for parking in little Tokyo. stars for delicious food and awesome service!

    Men Oh Tokushima Ramen took a second to find.I actually walked by it without realizing it the first time. The signs were a bit hidden, and the white over the windows made it look like the surrounding walls. But, find it I did.The inside was cozy.A section off to the left with tables for and groups. To the right, the bar, where I ended up sitting. There was Japanese music playing. A crazy mix of pop, classic, and rock that I had grown quite used to when I lived in Japan. I was a bit surprised that the TV didn't have NHK playing. But, they did have a lot of the stylized beer posters for Sapporo chilling on some walls. Definitely a Japanese vibe with an LA bent.The menu was pretty simple.Mostly Tonkotsu or bust. Which was fine for me since I'm a huge fan of the deep savory flavors that the style is know for. I believe their was a sides menu on the other side, but I didn't see many people ordering from it. I opted for their signature dish, the Tokushima Ramen. Though, the Spicy Tonkotsu was close second.I didn't have to wait too long. Nowhere near as fast as you get it in Japan, it still came out pretty quick. There was enough time to catch a couple commercial breaks on TV, sip through some water, have a couple nostalgia trips as songs I recognized played, and then it was set in front of me.The broth was solid.I was hit with a nice complex mix of spice and cream, and with a solid bite from the tsukemono, amazing. Noodles were a straighter variety, and cooked just right with a good firmness to them. The chunks of meat, I have to be honest, were only so-so. From how bold the broth was I was surprised at the lack of competition, no counterpoints to contrast. Just, really well cooked meat. The umami was solid, but...I hoped for a little more.About this time my neighbors Spicy Tonkotsu showed up and I was tempted to take a quick snap. But his appetite was faster than my reactions. So, that just gives me a reason to come back and try another of their ramens.What I had with the Tokushima SpecialWas definitely tasty and I have no regrets about it. Good to the last drop. I kinda made the people sitting on my other side gasp by how fast I ate it. I guess they'd never been to Japan. I'm a slowpoke compared to my old co-workers. The stories I could tell about eating out there...I'll probably hold off on coming back here until I've tried some other places. The meat as well as the price also got me a little bit. I suppose it's normal for that part of town, but $. was a little much for me when I could just hop over to another Ramen shop I know of and get the same level for $.. The crew at the shop was great though. Service with a smile and no problems I heard of while I was there.

    I was directing a music video and my crew was in need of good food because we had been filming for hours nonstop. I stumbled upon this place thanks to Yelp and I’m so glad we did because the food was great! In addition, it happens to be next door to one of my favorite Matcha joints.- @eatingwithricardo
