Shin-Sen-Gumi Hakata Ramen - Gardena

The 15 Hottest New Restaurants in Los Angeles, July 2024

"Tucked deep into the South Bay lies this hidden gem inspired by Tokyo’s various yokocho, or small neighborhood alleyways stuffed with restaurants, bars, and more. Once found, the Torrance Yokocho serves a huge menu of Japanese street food, like yakitori, chicken ramen, and tempura, alongside other izakaya classics like sushi, karaage, and even oden on weekends. Find a semi-covered booth table, order up a round of draft Asahi, and enjoy an evening like one would in Shibuya or Shinjuku. — Matthew Kang, lead editor" - Eater Staff
