The 18 Best Ramen Spots In Los Angeles

"A meal at Afuri Ramen feels undeniably refreshing, kind of like wiping your face with a fancy eucalyptus towel. The Arts District spot is a roomy industrial space that looks like a tech start-up cafeteria: lots of stainless steel and big windows that let natural light pour in. Afuri’s signature yuzu-infused shio ramen is wonderfully light and bright, with strong citrus flavors cutting through the salty chicken bone stock. The translucent broth glistens just the right way, the chashu pork is tender, and we love how springy the thin noodles are. Plus, we can slurp down the entire bowl and not feel like we’re carrying a bowling ball in our gut afterward. " - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren, garrett snyder
