It's perfect to share one ramen per person with a small side of fried rice. $25-30 per person.

These were really great crab wontons or rangoons whatever! Nice flavorful crispiness. I would have really preferred to dip into the same sweet and sour sauce that was drizzled on top instead of the water spicy mayo so will request that change if there is a future visit. I have a sore throat so didn’t want any spice in my ramen. Overall good but think the sauce was on the more bland side compared to say Jinya. Probably more flavor as spice levels increase. The soft boiled egg was done perfectly. Overall enjoyed my meal

Great spot on a rainy cloudy day. Or any day I’m sure. Right in down town. Nice dining area. Has a bar area as well. The ramen I ordered was delicious. Great quality and price. Plenty of people there all had one thing on their mind like we did. Ramen. They have many options and you can build your own. They have happy hour specials but hours vary. They close at 2:30 and reopen at five so make sure you catch them before or after.

This might be the best Ramen broth I've ever had! Most ramen places I've been have a more "pre-set" menu but this was all build your own to customize exactly what you want.

Saturday evening, less than 10min drive from the nearby aquarium. A family of 7, with 3 young kids, we are all hungry after the aquarium visit. Lucky to get a meter parking across the street. Ordered ramen. Great service, nice environment, not crowded. Raman came, everyone enjoyed the broth. I ordered the spicy, love it. Kids take the mild one. What a surprise for me.

Came here on a whim on a Sunday night at 8pm Cause I was craving ramen and it turned out to be the best ramen I've had. The build your own really let's you go wild, but the white tonkotsu broth is among the best I've ever had.Service was quick and attentive, and their appetizers were varied and delicious. Thank you for the experience.

This is my favorite ramen restaurant, there really is no other place like this spot, the food is always SO good and the atmosphere and service is really nice as well. I live on the east coast and there's no ramen like this where I'm from, so I always make a point to try the ramen anytime I visit somewhere but this place is truly exceptional.
We ordered on the Yelp app for pickup at the restaurant. One thing I wasn't a fan of was the location and the parking situation. Luckily, I brought my coworker with me. She jumped out and grabbed the order while I was parked in the red. Lots of us got the Gu ramen. (I put everyone's name on their order, and they made it so easy by printing everyone's name and order on the individual bowls. Soooo sooo easy! Thank you guys for that)!Curry garlicBats soy garlicEggCornGround porkGarlic corn cheese. Wasn't worth the price tag. Liked the ramen and ordering was super easy. Would eat here again!

The ramen and service here are fantastic! I ordered the medium spicy, pork belly ramen with egg and corn--Whoa! So much flavor! Everything tasted fresh and it was made with attention to flavors. The service was amazing as well. We were greeted as soon as we stepped in and our server was kind and attentive. If you're in Long Beach and want delicious ramen, definitely stop by.

It is the best Ramen I have ever tried:)They are fast and efficient, Ramen is kept perfectly hot when taking out. Their spicy Edamame best in town. It is so good it's the only thing on the menu I ever order. :) try it yourself.

This review is for the Ramen only.Straight to the point, the ramen is just not good. I've had ramen from about 20 different restaurants in California and this is the 2nd worst ramen out of the 20. The noodles were thin and tasted like top ramen. Definitely store bought. The tonkotsu broth was very bland and not rich or savory at all. I ordered this as takeout so I was able to add my own salt, garlic and chili oil at home, but the broth was still not very good. The egg was soft boiled appropriately but was not marinated so it was also bland. The chashu - pork belly actually had good flavor (which is why I gave 2 stars), but the two pieces were as thin as deli meat so it still left me quite disappointed.My wife got the same ramen, but with tofu and her ramen was so bad that she barely ate half before throwing the rest away. I can't speak for the rest of the menu, but it really seems as though the ramen is an after thought here and very little effort (or perhaps skill) is put into it. There are definitely far better ramen spots in downtown Long Beach.
