Ramen's the thing on a cool Southern California winter night, isn't it? It's hard to go wrong with the Black Tonkotsu Ramen, should you feel the need. Lovely pork broth, enhanced with black garlic oil. Thin, curly noodles done just so. Bamboo shoots, mushrooms, and a sprinkle of green onions. Interestingly enough, I don't typically eat green onions unless they're in ramen. The pork is flavorful and tender, though not melt in your mouth (although I have found that to be exceedingly rare). The egg is extra, but really... Who wants ramen without an egg. As you can see, I ate more than I should have. And I will return, perhaps to try a non-raman dish. Enjoy!
I've gone here probably 5 times the past year. They never have disappointed me and don't expect them to. Me and my friend two days ago got their spicy (mild) tonkotsu ramen. The ramen noodle itself felt a little bit more 'stringy' in texture but still delicious nevertheless. We got their gyoza and it was good but it does feel a little pricey for the amount we got. The customer service or the girls who attended us that day were so gorgeous and accommodating. That day they didn't have the volume on their TV like the last few times we went not that it's relevant to the food but usually me and my friends watch whatever is on when we are feeling a little tired. I love that they are generous with the seaweed in our ramen. The ladies handled it with care when they attended us and we're always enthusiastic. This ramen place is always my safe spot at The Source when I'm not splurging on sweets and albums lol. The atmosphere is always so "home-y" and has nice hues of orange and reds with delightful decor. If you don't like Ramen, then I highly recommend their deep fried food platter or their spicy tuna rolls. But Ramen is their speciality imo. In the picture I forgot to mix in the chili paste but my friend has hers mixed already for context. That's the gyoza we received.
Overall good experience here! The food was delicious & prices were reasonable, especially compared to other establishments within this mall. My only complaint about the food is that the edamame came drenched in salt—lightly salted is one thing, but bathed in salt is another I would definitely tell them to skip the salt next time since I like eating edamame to add a healthy touch to my meal, but all that salt basically defeats the point. I would also say to be aware that the appetizers and main dishes come out at the same time, at least in my experience. I was taken aback when we didn't even begin munching on our appetizers yet when they brought out our main dishes already. The portion sizes are pretty good and plates are shareable, though! The only other downside was that my friend and I wanted to eat outside and even though they had an outdoor dining area set up, they told us we couldn't for some reason :(
