on Citysearch Dec 03, 2008This is my favorite ramen house in Los Angeles. Order the Hakata Ramen with "hard" noodle. So much better than "regular." The waiters like to yell a lot. (more)

on Yahoo Mar 31, 2007Best tonkotsu broth on the west coast: We travel over 350 miles to go to this place. The gyoza are small and delicious, just the right balance of softness and crispness. I love that you can choose from the hardness of the... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 26, 2006Shin Sen Gumi's noodles are simply the best!! I'd recommend ordering the "set" meals. Comes w/ noodles, side dish, ... something else, and a drink. But anyways, i've been going here the last few years and the food is... (more)

on Yahoo Jun 03, 2006There's a reason I eat there once a week!: Haven't found better ramen anywhere else. I've got to try Daikokuya and see if it can stack up against Hakata, though. I usually go to the Gardena location.... (more)
