The Biggest Los Angeles Restaurant Openings in February 2025 | Eater LA

"Opened on February 7 with one of the most talked-about dining-room designs—striking honeycomb table arrangements—this concept was founded in New York City in 2014 by Gary Lin and specializes in three of Japan’s most popular ramen styles: Kyushu-style shio broth, Tokyo-style shoyu broth, and Hokkaido-style miso. The menu also includes omurice and yakitori skewers." - Mona Holmes

Came here with a couple of friends for a quick bite. We arrived around 6 PM on a Friday and it was about a 20 minute wait for a table. The vibe is pretty relaxing, although the restaurant is very brightly lit. Service was cordial and efficient. We ordered the Ramen, popcorn chicken, and octopus. Everything tasted pretty nice. All in all, I recommend this spot for a casual dinner with friends, family, or a significant other.

Came here with my friend and we got 1 & #6 ramen which was a little powerful in favor but very good 10/10! We got the Thai Ice Milk Tea & Amazing Lemonade, tasted very refreshing! Finally got some dessert: matcha shaved ice! Having desserts after really cleanse the palate! Would definitely recommend coming here! Good food and good environment! ✨

Drinks were amazing especially the Amazing Lemonade. Noodles were not so bad. We like the selection of appetizers as well. We found the staff to be extremely friendly and service was great. Our server Willy was very attentive. The decor inside was very cute with tables inside little private booths and honeycomb shaped booths.

Food quality and taste, service, atmosphere, and price, all earned a star from me :) A detailed review: Food: Broth is flavorful. Spicy is actually decently spicy if you order the spiciest option unlike other ramen shops I’ve been to. Pork belly is melt-in-your-mouth. Lemonade is out of this world! Service: The guy working the front desk was really nice but I didn’t catch his name. Service is normally pretty quick but it was super busy when we went so it took a little while for servers to arrive at times. Atmosphere: LOVE. IT. We didn’t make reservations before hand but lucked out and got the hexagon table for walk-in! I loved how well lit it was and how it felt like you were in your own little ramen world. Price: Honestly it’s pretty good for ramen in the city. We ordered combos A2 and B2 which cost ~$26, $53 respectively but includes appetizers, drinks, main, and dessert. Considering how good everything tasted too, I think it’s worth it. Highly recommend visiting and make reservations if you can!!!

Service is great and seating is wonderfully placed in the restaurant. Food was a perfect balance, the ramen was also perfect. I would recommend for others to come and try this chain. Will be back!

Everything from the location, to the service, to the food was absolutely top tier. Came here just to try it and now I have a new favorite spot. Waited less than 20 minutes for a table and we were served very quick!

I tried pretty much every ramen spot in the city and was so happy to see a new Kyuramen in Chinatown! Always come here to get something tasty from dumplings to ice cream and now I can have a ramen! At first sight I fell in love with the design of the place and definitely want to bring my husband to sit at the booth space. NYC needs more places like this! It’s warm, well designated and the food is delicious! There are many options for how spicy you want your ramen to be or not spicy at all-which is great for me because I have a sensitive stomach. Not only ramen surprised me by bright and full taste ( I got the #1) but also the pork bun and the Thai aced tea! Let's talk about the bun- it’s big, the bun itself is fresh and NOT saggy, and the pork itself is probably one of the best I tried, it was soft, juicy, and flavorful, and I want more! The tea had a great balance of sweetness and rich flavor of the tea itself without any bitterness. Just finished my food and already want to come back for more!

Really good Takoyaki, Pork Bao Buns and Ramen!!!! We got the A2 combos! Great service and food!

Kyuramen (Chinatown) - 10/10 Had the chicken shoyu ramen and honeycomb platter -- both slapped. Broth was soulful, chicken was tender, and the vibes? Crazy Don't think, just go.

Food and service were amazing. The server recommended a few things and they were all delicious. We really liked our spicy tonkatsu ramen. We'll definitely be coming back.

Traces of the spiciness from the spicy Sapporo Miso ramen are still lingering on my tongue as I write this review. This bowl stands out more compared to the classic Tonkotsu Shoyu ramen, which was still quite enjoyable. With our Combo B option, we also got popcorn chicken that was light, crispy, and delicious. We also tried the Pork Tonkatsu Omurice Combo with curry sauce. The curry sauce was flavorful and the pork was crispy, which provided contrasting textures, especially with the runny egg omelette and rice. We secured a private booth for our family, which was nice and comfortable. The service was prompt and friendly. Overall, it was a nice spot for a family dinner.

Really cool interior design ramen spot, they have these elevated honeycomb booths for you to sit pretty cozy in. Came here during peak dinner time and the wait wasn't too bad, about 15 mins. Service is was really nice the waiter was super attentive and asked if we needed anything frequently as well. We got the Sapporo miso and tonkotsu ramens and they were both pretty flavorful. Soup was very rich and the noodles were nice and bouncy. Meat in both was tender and tore apart with almost no effort as well!

Chose this location for the honeycomb booths and it did not disappoint. Was one of the highlights of my family's NYC trip. Some of the best ramen I have had. The servers and staff were very attentive and even sat us in the booth we wanted on a Saturday with a reservation made hours before. I will definitely be back. I got the #1 Tokyo Tonkotsu Shouyu Ramen and it was pork broth with a half seasoned egg, and just the right amount of richness. The atmosphere was great too, nice and bright, clean and open.

My friends and I ordered #1 with black garlic. The ramen had a good texture, the broth is rich and tasty, the pork belly melts in the mouth. Service and ambiance were great as well. We were in the honeycomb, cute.

Interesting interior honeycomb seating and wide japanese selection. The ramen was super flavorful and this is the first time I liked the charshiu in ramen. The waiters are friendly and provided great service!

I had this place on my list for the longest time and I was so happy to be able to come here. The wait time was so short and we were able to get a seat in the cubes that meet the experience so much worth it. The food was amazing the chicken ramen was full of flavored, and the broth was amazing. I also tried the soju great for sharing and for a night out with friends. Staff was super friendly and make sure we had everything we needed. And cannot forget how cute the decor was.

The weather has been very cold recently, giving me the perfect excuse to grab ramen with a friend. We started with an order of gyoza (not pictured), which came in an order of 6. My friend ordered a chicken broth ramen, while I got the spicy tonkotsu. Both of us loved our dishes! Of course, we needed to end with something sweet.. the ube crepe cake was delicious and perfect to share.

Had this saved on my Google maps forever as a place to visit and decided to go in finally when I happened to be in Chinatown. Glad I did since the food and ambiance were great! Ramen was on point and omurice with curry was great! We didn't get a chance to sit in one of the beehive looking section but we did sit right in front of the cooking area. Service was super quick too! If you're in the area and looking for some great Japanese food then come by this joint! Wish I could post videos of the place!

price - $70 (including tax and tip) food - 3/5 ambiance - 4/5 service - 3/5 overall - 3.5/5 overall, the food was good. my favorite was the korean kimchi ramen! the kyushu spicy tonkotsu ramen was a bit spicy but tolerable. popcorn chicken was a bit too crispy but the inside was pretty good. pork bao bun was okay. their thai iced tea was sooo good though! definitely on the pricier side of ramen though!

Disappointed with the food quality. I ordered a chicken bao bun and chicken Ramon soup. The food had no flavor whatsoever and the chicken was awful. The service was fast and attentive via the call bell. That about it.

This ramen shop in china town has the tastiest broth I have had, and I have eaten at a lot of different ramen shops. The chicken is tender, the pork isn't salty or over seasoned, and the egg is so jammy in the middle it melts in your mouth. The waiters are kind and the wait was very short. The honeycomb seating was intimate and visually appealing. I will gladly take the trip to New York again for this meal.

We visited a wonderful place called Chinatown. But, then ate Japanese Curry. I was about to nickname it Asiantown when my friends informed we are actually in the Lower East Side, no where near Chinatown. I'm so confused. While I'm sure another day we'll taste some of the best Chinese food in America, this could be among the very best from the Japanese. The ambiance is bright and spirited. Very unique design. It's actually quite addicting. The service was great. No waiting and many check-up visits. The appetizers were out quickly and just the right amount of time later came the entrees. Glasses stayed full and everyone happy. It is for all intents and purposes a ramen house. Very few choices without noodles. You would think it was tough for us since our medical stand against ramen, but it wasn't! We filled up on delectables like Takoyaki Octopus Balls, Chili Garlic Edamame and Tako Wasabi (Octopus). Our friends feasted on some special offers-all Ramen and most everything pork. The Japanese Curry is pure fire. Pretty incredible. Another fabulous culinary experience we would love to repeat, if only we could. A clean, respectable eatery and delightful staff behind a memorable night. 10/24

Sat at the high seats where you can watch them make your ramen (not at a table) since they were pretty packed. We didn't mind because we just wanted to get away from the cold. We each ordered our own bowl of ramen and shared appetizers- fried dumplings and purple sweet potato fries. The presentation of the dumplings was great but don't let that fool you. The dumplings were just meh. The ramen was good. Definitely great on a cold day. Flavor wise... okay. Had better but also had worse. Spice was good level but prefer spicier. They have hot pepper powders you can add to your food but I didn't think they added the appropriate flavors to it. It's a cool option though. Now, let me tell you when I say the sweet potato fries were good... they were so so so good. We don't know what it is because we've had it before but that day, it was like what we imagine crack to be. We ordered them 2 more times in that hour. Came hot and crispy and we devoured it. We like normal fries and sweet potato fries, but these purple sweet potato fries... delicious! I hope we feel the same way when we come back again haha All in all, come for the food. Not so much the service. A bit slow and somewhat dismissive. Interior is modern and cool with the honeycomb seating. Give this place a try... for the purple sweet potato fries! (And a hot bowl of ramen when it's cold outside!)

I have been wanting to try this place for awhile! Came in on a Friday night, wait wasn't too long. You get seated much quicker if you opt for the regular dining table vs. honeycomb. Since it was my first time, we waited for the honeycomb. Service and food was outstanding. So many options to choose from. Everything was delicious. Finish your broth when you're done with the ramen and see what secret message awaits on the bottom of the bowl!

This place is pretty good, always solid ramen. They have a variety of different ramen flavors and add ons. The curry version is my favorite, but having half and half of the white and black garlic is also good. I will say I do not get this place too often because the flavor can be overwhelming. The honey comb appetizer was really mid, probably wouldn't order it again. Same thing with the popcorn chicken. There is a lot to choose from though, so maybe next time I'll order something different. Their drinks are usually solid. The inside and seating is very cute with these honey comb boxes that serve as seating. It was awkward because when people come in this is the first thing they look at, and you have to climb up these stairs to get there. Service was fast.

Checked in on the tablet as no one interacted with us when we walked in. Waited 10 minutes to be sat as the staff weren't paying attention. Originally I thought they weren't sitting the floor section of the restaurant, only the octagons and booths. I went to the host stand to find out what was going on, and to sit at bar if needed and they said they weren't sure we were still here, they didn't even send the text to say our table was ready. After we were sat on the floor tables, they finally started to fill up. Service got better once sat. You don't seem to have a dedicated server, everyone pitches in. Food was good. We both had ramen. The sliced pork was nice and flavourful. Tried a couple different apps as well.

Very welcoming environment as soon as I walked inside. The host immediately sat us down at our table, which is up a short stair set, that leads into a seating area that resemble a honeycomb. My son and I got the Sapporo ramen (extra spicy) and the lobster salad balls. I also ordered myself some hot sake. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was amazing and the sake was just as amazing. I'm enjoying the big apple so far.

Went on a Saturday afternoon and were seated on the top hive area. It was pretty fun to be up there but also a bit nerve wracking if you have some fear of heights. The popcorn chicken was crunchy; it definitely felt a bit dry but the seasoning available on the side of the table saved the day. We got the first (Tokyo tonkotsu shoyou) and second option (katsuoboshi pork ramen) for ramen in white garlic. I felt that the first option was a bit more flavorful than the second option. Overall, this place has nice/bright vibes, a cool hive concept, and great service.

The place is clean and the honeycomb seating arrangement offers a fun experience. The curry sauce paired with the Omurice was the highlight of the meal and I thought the jelly was very cute and I like how light and not overly sweet it was. Servers are attentive, but it was not as busy when I went.I would come again.

Enjoyed a dinner at Kyuramen. The service was pretty quick and the seating of this location is so cute and a great use of the space! The tonkotsu shoyu was good but I've personally had better ramen with really tasty chashu. The okonomiyaki was fantastic and hit all the right notes. Overall we enjoyed this spot but wouldn't come running to it again next time we are in town.

Amazing spot in the winter. The interior is picture worthy. The food served is picture worthy. The flavors are still on point. Service is pretty fast after you press the button. Right after some yummy ramen you can head next door for icecream.

Walking into Kyramen in Chinatown, the first thing that struck me was the honeycomb interior--such a cool design! Some of the honeycombs even have seats inside, and there are cozy booths with short curtains for privacy, which really made me feel like I was in Japan except you get to keep your shoes on. We kicked things off with the omurice with curry sauce over rice, which I originally thought would be white rice, but to my surprise, it was fried rice! The fluffy omelet on over the rice and the added curry sauce on top was comforting, and the fried pork cutlet on the side added a nice crunch and good protein. Next up was the takoyaki, a nostalgic street food snack that took me right back to Tokyo. The crispy outside and gooey inside, topped with mayo bonito flakes. We also ordered the Yakitori Platter, an assortment of grilled meats and veggies on skewers. Not really my favorite but my parents liked it and the variety so you're not stuck with one kind of skewer. For ramen, I went with the spicy tonkotsu ramen, which had just the right portion of noodles-not too much, so there was still room for all the other food. My father got the Katsuobushi Pork ramen, and he couldn't stop raving about it! He said the broth was incredibly rich and flavorful, though the noodles reminded him of instant ramen (but in the best way possible). He declared it delicious. One of the fun surprises of the night was discovering the Slurp & Win promotion at the bottom of the ramen bowl. We ended up winning a free lemonade, it made our experience at Kyramen much more fun! For dessert, we had the cherry blossom jelly, a light and refreshing palate cleanser, followed by the matcha pudding, which was the perfect creamy and slightly bitter-sweet way to end the meal. Overall, Kyramen is a must-visit for anyone craving a cozy Japanese atmosphere and solid comfort food.

I walked in on a Monday evening as a party of 10. We were seated immediately in a gorgeous booth table that accommodated my whole party. The restaurant was quiet around 8pm. We ordered a variety of dishes including the popcorn chicken, pork bao buns, pork tonkotsu omurice, tonkotsu shoyu ramen, sapporo miso ramen, and more. Some dishes were more hits than others. I recommend the tonkotsu shout ramen and miso ramen. The omurice was delicious and pretty presentation as well. The popcorn chicken was slightly dry and the bao buns were ok. I enjoyed this place for a large group on short notice and their meal combo sets are of excellent value.

I came for dinner on a Monday night with friends and had no problem getting a table without a reservation. We were even able to snag one of the famous honeycomb booths! They're so cozy in there and shockingly soundproof; we loved the privacy. This is one of the few ramen places with a vegetarian option, which was great for my vegetarian friend. I had the black garlic tonkotsu and it was delicious, although I've definitely had more flavorful broths elsewhere. Service was so attentive and friendly.

I came here with my family on a Sunday afternoon. We ordered an appetizer and 4 entrees. The entrees came before the appetizer and not all at once. In fact each of the entrees came 5-10 mins apart making the food cold as it's customary to wait until everyone has their meal to eat at the same time. Very disappointing. Plus the food was not flavored well and very mediocre. Will not be back

amazing food ~The broth was rich, savory, and perfectly balanced--deeply umami with just the right amount of creaminess. The noodles had a fantastic chewy texture, cooked to perfection. Good services ~

Saw they had a few new menu items so came to try them out! Ordered the yakitori platter and the eel kamameshi. The baby scallop skewer was my favorite, the beef skirt was honestly really tough and hard to chew so i wouldnt order that again. The kamameshi was very flavorful, the eel was super soft. It came in a stone pot so the rice was hot the entire time. Theres a lot of seating and service is super quick which is great. The honeycomb seating is definitely a vibe, but i enjoyed sitting at the normal tables. Definitely a cute date spot and theres never a long wait.

Came here for lunch with a coworker. We got to sit in the honeycomb booths which were very cute and aesthetic. I thought my food (Sapporo miso ramen) was pretty decent. My coworker got the vegetarian ramen and she said it was "mid". Service was great, ambiance was nice, but I don't know. It was fine. And maybe sometimes it's okay if something is just fine.

I came here with a coworker a while back for dinner. As I walked in, I was so surprised to see how the restaurant was set up! There were tables on the wall that had honeycomb shape that were really cute, normal table seating in the center, bar seating, and private rooms. We got seated in one of the honeycomb seats which was cool and had a nice view of the restaurant but it wasn't the most comfortable. The food was pretty good as well. I got the Tokyo tonkotsu shoyu ramen and got takoyaki to share. It was tasty and filling!
