"The first Rakkan Ramen opened in 2011 as a four-seat ramen bar in Tokyo and expanded to the U.S. in 2017 with a branch in Little Tokyo. The broth is packed with umami and is completely plant-based. With vegan and gluten-free options, the menu easily meets any dietary restrictions while still serving up a delicious bowl of ramen. The Garnet, the shop’s miso-based ramen, is rich and satisfying; for a nice kick, get it spicy." - Kimberly Madrid
