Excellent place to eat some food when in a rush. The customer service is efficient, prices are fair, good vibes. Highly recommended

Best Ramen in town! The vibe is super chill and they play awesome 80s and 90s music. They have great service and the manager/owner always comes to see how we're doing.

Came here on a whim with my cousin and we were just blown away by the service!!! The staff is so kind and accommodating but not in a way where they are constantly bothering you asking about how your food is. We both got spicy miso ramen and side salads. The side salad came with a dressing that is so AMAZING. I literally talked to every single person in the restaurant trying to get the recipe or even a bottle of it because it's only made on site. I will come back for that dressing alone, I promise. 4 stars because the ramen truly wasn't all that. I felt that it was a bit lacking in flavor all around. However, their curry looked amazing and I'll be back to try that! Thank you for an amazing experience and please start selling your dressing!

We just went to Vivi and the food was awesome! We were waited on and served by the owner, Frank, he was so nice and always smiling! We had goyza, sushi, ramen, and the salmon plate. The restaurant is bright, quiet and clean. The prices were unexpectedly reasonable! We will definitely be back often!!

I went with my sister for the first time and was really excited to try out a place that had curry and ramen. I had ordered the tonkatsu and my sister ordered the curry udon. Both were extremely watery and the taste was very bland. We were both quite disappointed. The service was great though! They were very friendly and attentive, that's why I put two stars instead of one. I also liked the overall cleanliness. The food just came up too short.

We stopped here during our road trip north. We were looking for poke, but saw that this place first and thought we'd give it a try as it looked busy and happy :) Best decision we made because the ramen was incredible! The staff was so sweet and kind! Great place! We will definitely stop by on our way home! So yummy! P.S. the summer sushi roll is so great and refreshing! Thank you!

lots of variety! i've only gone once and got the chicken curry rice. if you have gone to coco ichibanya, this is decent compared to it but compared to everything else thats in riverside, this place is pretty good!! i enjoyed my meal and it was pretty empty with no wait on a friday night at around 9. my friend got the ramen and she said it was pretty good as well. the lakers game was playing too and it made my experience better because i wanted to watch the game! overall 5/5 and would come again if i'm craving curry

Their Spam musubi is delicious and it's the only thing I go there for. The service is always friendly. They are only open from 3PM to 11PM, but one time I caught them closing way earlier than that; at like 10 p.m. I'm assuming because business was slow. So yeah, they might close earlier than the posted time! Kind of unprofessional.

We love eating out. Last night we found this fine restaurant which friends recommended to us. We spent a delightful experience there with great cooking and a professional team and an impressive chef. We put this place in our phone list and we will certainly return very soon. We warmly recommend.

Came for dinner Saturday evening past 7 pm with friends. Place wasn't crowded. We ordered chicken udon, shio ramen, tonkatsu ramen and spicy miso ramen. They substitute pork with tofu if you don't eat pork which comes with ramen. Ramen and udon broth tasted perfect. Not too salty. I will be coming back.
