cool, you ate there too. They got good Salmon Teriyaki combo, but this time around i decided on the sashimi and beef ponzu. My family and i ate in one of those tatami rooms, authentic style. Yeah, the one in Tustin is one of my favorites. Also, for good ramen, suggest Shinsengumi in OC or Southbay or Daikokuya in Little Tokyo. it does remind me a bit of tokyo....these food places :applaud:

right on...i live in l.a. so i've been to daikokuya many, many times...that's the best ramen place in l.a....hands down. i've taken many of my friends there and everybody loves it, unequivocally. in fact, i just eat there on wednesday....i would eat there more often but ramen has way tooooooo much sodium....not to good for ya.

yeah, daikokuya, walk in there, and it's like you are in Tokyo somewhere....great food, too bad they close on sundays...
went there once on a sunday and they had a sign outside saying closed and if they run out of soup base, they will be closed that day. any other day, it's open.
don't want to even think about how much sodium is in that bowl of ramen, but good stuff. just be sure to drink lots of water to dilute it.

you'd have to drink all the water in the colorado river to dilute the sodium in almost any bowel of ramen.
