"As fall creeps in (it’s below 80 degrees outside), there’s a natural draw toward rich, steamy bowls of noodles and Daikokuya is there to fill the craving. The Daikokuya ramen is a creamy tonkotsu broth, with a pleasant saltiness and thick cuts of tender pork. What really sets this bowl apart are the springy noodles, which remain chewy even after sitting in the broth for some time. While the Little Tokyo location tends to attract crowds, the bowls at the Sawtelle outpost are just as good, with little to no wait most of the time. Make sure to order a Sapporo on draft in a generously sized metal mug. If not in the mood for ramen, tempura, karaage, and a chashu pork bowl with rice all present tempting options." - Eater Staff
