Delicious spot fantastic service, delicious small selection! The sushi and corn and especially the cucumber are all so delicious!!

Was craving ramen after watching way too many youtube shorts. Luckily for me, I have an Ippudo a few blocks away. Not sure why it has taken me so long to come here! The service was fast and nice and the establishment was clean and had nice decor. You can either eat at the counter or be seated at tables. I chose a table so that I could people watch those passing by on Santa Monica Blvd. I love spice so I decided to go with the Karaka Spicy with a poached egg. It was sooo good. The noodles were perfect! The spice and flavor of the broth was great and not overpowering. I will be back for more especially as the weather gets more cozy!

**Finally, a Ramen Spot to Love in West Hollywood!** After moving from Japan, finding a place that satisfies my ramen cravings has been a journey. Most of the time, I'd have to trek all the way to DTLA for a real bowl of ramen. But thankfully, this little gem has made its home in West Hollywood, and it's been a game-changer! Let's address the elephant in the room--it's a bit overpriced for ramen (like most of LA), and charging extra for toppings like tamago (egg) that usually come standard was a bit of a surprise. The seating is cozy and welcoming, the ramen is delicious, and right now, it's not too crowded. But I doubt that'll last--once word gets out about this spot, it's going to be packed! My advice? Start with the traditional ramen to get a feel for the flavors and then explore. The Karaka is my personal favorite--it's got just the right kick--and the Dan Dan is also a must-try. Plus, there are tons of veggie options, so there's something for everyone. West Hollywood just leveled up its ramen game. Don't sleep on this spot!

Best Ramen in West LA! This place has such a beautiful, traditional inside with really great ramen flavors. I went to this place in SF and it seems there is a bigger menu here in LA. I had no idea this was in the area and it is such a gem! I got the Shiromaru Motoaji-- It is perfectly flavored with such a yummy broth, a perfect bowl of ramen. I came here on a Friday night around 8:30pm and it was surprisingly not busy at all! Seated right away and everything came out fast. There is a lot of street parking right next to it in the neighborhoods or there is a structure nearby. 100% coming back :)

It was a cold and cloudy day in Los Angeles, and I was craving a hot bowl of noodle soup. My friend and I decided to head over to Ippudo during our lunch break to try something new. I got the Akamaru Modern, while she opted for the Karaka Spicy. For starters, we ordered Goma (cucumbers) and the french fries. Don't sleep on the complimentary pickled mustard greens or spicy bean sprouts. My fave of the two was definitely the bean sprouts which complemented the Goma really nicely. We chose the mentaiko mayo as the dipping sauce for the fries and it was definitely the right move. There's a nice saltiness from the mentaiko mixed with the creaminess of the mayo which creates this aioli-like sauce for the fries. Now, onto the stars of the show: the noods! The Akamaru Modern Ramen was full of flavor, there was a richness to the broth with just enough seasoning. I finished my entire bowl and slurped the soup until the last drop. My friend said the spicy ramen was equally delicious. We're already making plans to go back and try all the other items on the menu. Now that winter has finally hit Los Angeles, I'll be looking for these delicious bowls of comfort food to keep me warm.

Been to Ippudo in New York and loved the experience so much, had to come back for it in LA. Super nice location, everything is served very fast and service is super nice. Food is delicious, love their ramens! Also I would suggest to try the steam buns- chicken or shrimp rock!

The seasonal fish flake ramen has made a permanent return in the Bonny bonito ramen. I *love* bonito, so this is a must every time. Fishy, smoky, thick, rich broth with plenty of chewy noodles. Please try it, it's my favorite ramen broth in LA. And we always grab a side of shishito to start and keep the yuzu salt for the rest of the meal. I do wish the chashu was a bit thicker nowadays, though

My husband has been craving IPPUDO since we first tried it in Cupertino. So as the last stop for his birthday celebration weekend, we drove to West Hollywood to finally get his fix. We were greeted as we walked in and seated right away. We scanned the menu QR code at the table even though we already knew we were going to order the same items we had in Cupertino. We started with the Ebi Mayo and added the Oishi Kara-age to try. For our ramen -- Karaka Spicy and Akamaru Modern. My husband and daughter each added an egg to theirs. Everything was freshly prepared and so, so good!! The broth, noodles and depth of flavors were exactly as we remembered. My husband barely said a word as he thoroughly enjoyed his Karaka Spicy. The Ebi Mayo was heavily sauced but delicious nonetheless. The Kara-age was lightly battered and perfectly fried. We skipped dessert since we still had some birthday cake left at home. :) Service was friendly and efficient. Water was refilled without asking. There's no refills on soda since it's poured out of a can. The space is clean and bright. Street parking was easy in the surrounding neighborhood. I am 100% sure we'll be back soon!
