Do you know if all of the Shinsengumi restaurants are owned by the same person? And which one is the one you always go to?


Yes, I think they are all owned by the same restaurant group. The one I prefer going to is the original location in Gardena on Western Ave. It's certainly not the biggest or the "nicest" but it is the one with most boisterous activity. I've been to the one in Monterey Park which serves yakitori and shabu shabu at the same location but I think the yakitori at the Gardena location is better, in my opinion.

Definitely important.

So I read about this San Gabriel Valley ramen shop that I haven't been to...it's called Ton-chan...seems to have garnered good reviews.

Hmm.

I venture less into SGV than I do the Westside, unfortunately. Sad

You still got some of the best places close by though Smile

I'm more curious about Nidaime Tsujita. Definitely going to hit that spot when it opens up on Sawtelle.

Last time I was there, it was almost too toasty on a cold day. Sweat

HAHA. Really? Goodness, they got work on that then. All I know is, no matter how cold it might be when you got that big steaming bowl of ramen in your face that's the only environmental control system your going to need.

Sure thing. Smile


Oh yeah that's a different Shinsengumi location that serves different food but the one I referred to on Western is pretty close to the location you mentioned on Artesia.

The one on Western is across the street from Gardena Toyota... Just north of 190th Street. Smile

Yeah bmwracer, pointed out the location I was referring to...but to answer your question they are both pretty close to each other...the one on Artesia doesn't serve yakitori as the main fare. So you want the one on Western.
