The 16 Best Restaurants On West LA's Sawtelle Boulevard - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"Sawtelle is home to plenty of pork-heavy ramen shops, but there aren’t any quite like Torisoba Sumiya, a chicken ramen specialist where the cooks flip birds over open flames. The charcoal-grilled chicken adds smoky depth to the house ramen, which comes with freshly made noodles and an extra-rich poultry broth speckled with charred bits. Spoon on some of their green yuzu sauce for a peppery bite, and if you're hungry, upgrade to the mini rice bowl combo for $5 more (we like the one with surprisingly light fried chicken tossed in sweet and sour sauce). The space is tight, but if you come solo, you can sit at the bar with a front-row view of the grilling action, gaze at the Japanese calligraphy on the walls, and slurp noodles in peace." - brant cox, sylvio martins, arden shore, cathy park
