Slurp & Sip

Staff was so warm!! I saw this place on tiktok and went with a friend. It’s an asian style convenience store. I did not know how to use the appliances but the staff was very patient and kind. They showed us how to do it. I got the hwajae and tteokbokki which were both really good. They have add ons for .50cts to $1 (cheese, sausage, radish, etc.). There is seating in the front which is in a shaded spot. This is the perfect place to drop by for a quick drink or snack during the heat, with friends, or coming from work. I will definitely be coming back!

My new favorite place! I love instant noodles, and this was exactly what I needed on this short visit in LA. Skip the fancy restaurants and hype food, come here! So many selections of noodles and drinks! You will not be disappointed!

Lots of ramen to choose. Pick what you like if its spicy or not and pick your toppings at the counter. They have a heating area where you boil your ramen. Downfall to this place is there is no restroom and they have limited seats and tables outside. Make sure you save your seats before you order.

-I have to say I personally loved this just due to the fact it’s just one of those ‘trendy’ things going around so I wanted to just try and get it out of my system. -It was fun I will admit and I enjoyed the selection of different foods they had and the friendly staff that were helpful throughout. -However similar to other reviews, it is hard to also justify this place when it is a big price you’re paying for convenience to eat here. I would still recommend this place if you’ve seen it online and have an urge to try it out and see what it’s like once.

Finally decided to try this place out and had a lovely experience. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Using the ramen machines might seems mundane to some folks, but I thought it was fun. I will say I wish they had raw eggs instead of hard boiled eggs and that indoor seating was available.

Want a fun way to elevate your instant noodles? Hop on that TikTok trend and find yourself at Slurp & Sip in LA’s Koreatown, which is an innovative convenience store with self-serve ramen. At this shop, you not only get to choose from an entire wall of different flavors of ramen (choose your 🔥 wisely) but you also are presented with toppings like different cheeses, dumplings, SPAM, corn, and other delights. I definitely took note for my imminent late night cravings in the kitchen🫣 They also have many options of delicious, refreshing smoothies, as well as drinks in pouches, to complement your meal🧃

Not only a great spot for our lunch date but also such a fun unique experience. We tried new flavors of ramen and were fascinated with their super cool noodle cooker. Be careful and read the directions so you dont burn the bowl. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Pretty authentic Korean atmosphere, though it is kind of overpriced for what it is.

We went after a show at the pantages. I was happy to find a ramen place that had both vegan / plant based options. We also ordered the garlic edamame which was super yummy. Services was great, restaurant wasn't busy. They have a parking lot connected where they park your car for you for $5.

My bf and I wanted something sweet after having lunch next door, so we quickly hopped over to check this spot out. Parking: Every man for themselves. Paid metered parking in front or paid parking garage in the back. Follow the signs to public parking. Complimentary 3 hour parking. $5 + service fees after 3 hours paid via online. Ambiance/Environment: This is the closest Korean convenient store I'll get to lol. It's small inside with no indoor seating and limited outdoor seating. They offer all the popular Korean snacks, drinks, and ramen. Service: Service can definitely improve. My main reason for the 1 star off. My bf ordered at the register, and the cashier either wasn't fully present or just did not pay attention whatsoever. My bf repeated himself 3x after the cashier asked him what size he wanted ... 3x. Throughput took about 7 min after ordering. Drink: We ordered the Coffee Protein Shake. It contains almond milk, protein, banana, coffee, cinnamon, non-fat yogurt, and peanut butter. The consistency wasn't too thick or chalky. The only thing we really tasted was the peanut butter. Every other ingredient was basically invisible. Pricing: It was $11.50 for a 20 oz protein shake. It didn't state how many grams were in the protein shake. Still more than the average price. Overall, the idea is cool if you're wondering what a Korean convenience store is like. Our experience could've been better.

Stopped by today to grab a drink and so glad I stumbled upon this location. First of all, I thought this was only an instant ramen spot, but found out they serve fresh juice and smoothies! Wasn't in the mood for food, but will definitely get some next time - side note they even have instant noodles for dogs! So cool! Anyways I was greeted by staff and owner upon walking in. They were super welcoming and warm. And definitely helped me choose my drink. Told them I was looking for healthy but delicious and they told me to go with dragons blood. Has pineapple, beets, carrots, ginger and more. I think I finished the whole juice in less than 5 minutes it was that good. Surprised me actually, how good it was. They have plenty of juices, smoothies, açaí to choose from and a whole wall of instant noodles. You can eat outside where there are open seats. And parking is available in the back of the building in the lot or meter parking in the front.

As someone who's familiar with Korean convenience stores, this place was disappointing. My rating only reflects the drinks as I didn't try the food. I got the mango ade in the fruit cup and it was just decent. The total came out to $6 which was expensive for what I got since it was just a bagged drink in an ice cup with some fruit. I could get fresh boba with that money lol. The ice cup was also hard to drink from since it was super frozen and the ice was stuck together. I could barely put my straw in it. It felt like that ice cup has been sitting in the freezer for a long time. I would suggest lowering the prices and trying to make it similar to the ones in Korea. The ice cups in Korea are super easy to use and complement the drink.

Such a great experience! There is a wide variety of soups/stir-fry to choose from. Luckily all the questions we had were answered by all the instructions posted around the shop. But they were still friendly enough to answer any other questions that we had. Will definitely be coming back to try other soups!

Super convenient way to kill that ramen with all the toppings craving. The options of ramen/noodles are a lot, as well as drinks. The guy working here today was super helpful for first timers figuring out how to cook our noodles on their machines and so on. Seating outside was what you can typically expect for this part of LA. Shopping center has a good flow of locals walking their dogs or picking up a quick drink here or Starbucks next door...chill vibe. Super fun experience overall!

Slurp & Sip is a convenience styled ramen bar located in Koreatown. There's a small parking lot out front for the plaza and very limited seating outside only. They have a wide variety of microwaveable ramen and other items like drinks and snacks. There's staff to help you use the hot water machines. Food We each picked out our own ramen to make for about $5. You can also grab some toppings for additional $0.50-$1 per topping. Basically, you're paying around $5-$10 based on your choices. There's a few free toppings which were all out by the time we cooked ours. The staff explained how to use the machines but it was still pretty confusing and you have to watch your bowl as they could melt from the heat. It took about $5 minutes to cook. Honestly, coming here is mostly just for the experience and I'd only recommend if there's a specific brand of noodles you're looking for. Overall | 3.5 The ambiance + service: 4/5 The food: 3/5 The price: $$

Good experience Shady area.. lots of flies but apart from that good. It said the jjajang (black bean) ramen was less spice but it was about the same level as the quatro cheese very easy to order and lots of condiments

The hype brought us here. Our daughter saw this on TikTok and she loves ramen so we decided to give this a try. We went here last Thursday (May 23rd) around 3pm. The wall displayed a wide array of noodles -stew type or ramen type, with different levels of spiciness which was posted on the wall near the entrance door. For the toppings, there were some free ones beside the cooking station, however, the ones that you pay for like kimchi, radish, egg, and the like beside the cashier you have to pay for. After getting the noodles and condiments, you pay at the cashier and cook your personalized ramen (which makes it special). You press 1 for the water to come out at the cooking station and check the timer if you're done. All in all, it was a good experience. However, street parking is challenging and there is no dining inside only a few tables and chairs outdoor.

Really cool concept if you're looking for how a convenient store in Korea or Japan would look like! Loving the ice cups and the peach tea was actually really good, those pouches never have enough juice I feel but it's still good! The ramen wall was cool, there's definitely ramen that I've never seen in California in here. I appreciate the variety and cooking with the water machines was a fun experience. Easy instructions and free toppings of onion, green onion, jalapeños, lime and lime. Other toppings vary in price and are a little pricy for simple things like a slice of cheese. There's a freezer of cool items to purchase on the side like buldak fried rice; I wish I left stomach to try the Hwachae! Overall I think it's a fun experience, but definitely something you might be able to replicate at home. If it's convenient, it's a fun stop! But given parking difficulty and portions, I probably won't be stopping by too often unless I'm in the area. Shoutout to the employees, polite and helpful. Thank you for a cool experience!

Great experience but I just think it's overpriced. Even the location. If you're local just try it once or so but I don't think it's worth it coming from far away.

Service is nice. Obviously the food is what you make it, at the end of the day. It is just Ramen noodles that you could buy at the grocery store. The biggest bummer for me was the fact that they stopped serving smoothies at 7:30 PM and there's no indication that they do that so of course I showed up around 8 PM and they said no more smoothies although the place closes at 9 PM.

We love this place! Went as a group during one Saturday and we had so much fun picking our ramens. So many varieties and flavors-- we finally settled on the soup and stir fry ramens. They both equally delicious and we truly loved the self serve concept. Not too many seating areas so just be prepared if you're coming during rush hours.

This place caught my eye. This is a pretty neat experience. There was quite a bit of items to choose from. Food was excellent. The service was great. I was a first timer so im sure i was looking hella confused. Haha. I was kindly informed that I had to peal my hard boiled egg before cooking my soup. I will forever be grateful. The place was super bright, well thought out and clean. I got extra toppings for my soup to make it gourmet. I also got one of their fresh juices. I got the "pick me up." It was great. Ill be back for sure.

We arrived around 1230pm and the shop was empty. There is an entire wall of ramen from top to bottom with many brands to choose from whether you like it soup or dry and spicy or not. I think there are way more spicy noodles than non-spicy. You choose your ramen, toppings, and pay. Then head to the cooking station and cook your ramen. We were told to press 1 to cook our soup ramen. Water is then added and takes 4 minutes to cook it. The We got 3 ramen and 1 tteokbokki. I believe the gentleman who helped my husband with making the tteokbokki may be the owner or store manager, but he overcooked the tteokbokki. I was not aware until my son offered me the last 2 pieces, which tasted hard and chewey. My 8yo chose a non-spicy cheese ramen, and to my surprise, it was very good. My husband and I each chose a spicy noodle and added in extra add-ons for additional costs : dumplings, rice cakes, and a boiled egg w/ kimchi. Their kimchi is actually pretty good! By the ramen cooking station, there are complimentary toppings in small containers for you to add to your ramen. They are onions, green onions, serrano peppers, and lime. There is a fridge full of juice and coffee bags with ice cups available for you to enjoy. They also have a healthy drink menu of smoothies, shakes, and juices to order from. The price is decent and, on average, about $10-$12 per bowl with 2-3 add-on toppings. My 11yo wanted to experience this, and so we went! It was a good experience but not something we would do all the time. *Parking lot behind the building with an entrance for you to walk through from there to the front. $3 for every 15 mins. *Small shop w/ no indoor seatings. There are about 8 tables (for 2 customers each table) outside.

Loved this fun experience. So many ramen choices to choose from with different topping choices as well. The owners are very friendly and are there to help with any questions you have! I went around 12 on Saturday and it was not busy and I didn't have to wait in line. Inside is clean and very organized. The surrounding area has heavy traffic due to all the food options but luckily there is parking lot in the back. Check out my reel:morelifewithbri

The hype news brought me here. I love how the restaurant displays all their ramen on this giant wall. When I arrived, it was the busiest store in this area, and that says a lot about this business, which surrounds Halal Guys and Starbucks. The line for the order was unorganized. After you pay, you must stand in another line to use the machine for boiling water. Condiments such as eggs and kimchi are extra. We had to find an available table when our bowl was ready. We found a high-rise table and ate the noodles while standing. I saw other groups waiting for an open table while we were munching. This is a good experience to try Korean ramen, which you are unfamiliar with. I've attempted to close to 90% of their stock, so none of them were a big surprise when it came to taste. What I enjoyed most about this place is the price. Yes, you can probably buy one of these ramen for under $2 at a market and cook it at home. But, if you're looking for a cheap and fast meal, I think Slurp and Sip is your best bet in Koreatown.

We needed a place like Slurp & Sip in KTown! It's perfect for a quick and cheap meal. They have a bunch of types of noodles to pick from including some of the classics, favorites but even had a couple that were new~to~me. Prices aren't bad at $6-7 a pop then a bit extra for things like spam, cheese or an egg. Some freebie toppings are included like cilantro, lime, onions, green onions and jalapenos. The guy working is super nice, making sure everyone is taken care of and everything is working properly. He could tell it was our first time and gave us some tips! They have 6 stations for boiling your ramen and at lunch time, they can get packed. But the soup only needs a couple of minutes to boil so the crowd dissipates quickly. They need more tables once everything is ready though. We had to go a couple shops down outside and steal seats from Starbucks. I think this is a great addition to the 'hood for a quick meal. I saw plenty of friends meeting up but also solo diners, so everyone should feel welcome. Huge parking lot behind, just be sure to get validation otherwise it's $9. There is meter parking but it's KTown, it can be hard to find.

Food is what you expect -instant ramen that you can buy at the supermarket but you pay $10 for. Make sure you don't press the wrong button because if you do you will start a preset double volume of water and ruin your meal. Their only way to help with this was to say you will eat a very diluted instant ramen, or you must pay $10 to purchase another instant ramen. REALLY? Before we left, we purchased a $6 fruit drink (prefrozen) and upon pouring the fruit drink inside, the cup leaked from the bottom. Her fix was to pour all the contents into another cup (nonfrozen) and her attempt at this caused much of the frozen fruit to fall out onto the table. Service = negative 0 Cashier attitude = negative 0

A delightful and fun food experience for all ages - seemingly simple on the surface, I recommend anyone to try it at least ONCE. From a variety of different food and beverage options, paired with various toppings, its a surprisingly fun and interactive time staffed by patient and kindhearted folks, more than willing to show you how its done.

Congrats on your opening, 2 weeks now! Cool, just like being in Japan! Quality/Quantity - Six self-service ramen machines, so cool. Again, just like being in Japan. Decent selection, see pictures and menus. Some free ramen toppings. Some paid extras - Cheese, egg, etc. 99 cents for "performance up" toppings/additions, see picture. Also available - Smoothies, fresh juices, sodas, etc. Atmosphere - Small new shop. I feel they are still working out the business. Limited indoor/outdoor seating. Open 7 days a week from 8:30am or 9am to 5pm or 6:30pm; Yelp hours differ. Not sure if they replaced Junny's juice?Or this is in addition to the Junny's juice business? Service - Good, but this is self service ramen. Price - Ramen $5.99 to $6.99 each. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success, wishing you the best.

On a Sunday morning in January, my family and I came here trying to new place. It's located with Starbucks and halal guys plaza. They opened at 9am weekend. Inside is very small so only few people able to stand inside. One walk is the full of ramen packets $5.99. Then I paid the ramen with egg of extra cost. Next I went to ramen self serve machine. The owners are very nice and helpful when I needed help. The condiments are to one size. I just watched the ramen cook. It was very cool like if I was in Korea. Tip:It was hard to find street parking so we parked at hmart parking structure

My review is for the juice! I think because Slurp & Sip is overshadowed as an instant-noodle place that I feel like I need to really shine light on the fresh juices/smoothies/acai bowls available here! I can't say I'm a fan of the 'non-fat yogurt' that they have on the menu for some of these smoothies, however, I love to see these available in the neighborhood. I came in around 8a something and there was one other customer in there before me. They took a minute, but that's fine. I figured they are trying to find most efficient workflow, etc. But be warned that you should have a bit of patience if you come here :) I ordered the Dragon's Blood, which was great. Can't wait to come back to try other items on the menu. xo

Though this is a neat experience, you are really paying a lot more for just simple packet ramen. That said, it was very fun and i enjoyed my creation. The line was very busy so i recommend getting there earlier rather than their last 2hrs. They have an entire wall of instant ramen to choose from and toppings aside to add to it. I'd probably come again for fun, but wouldn't make it a regular stop for a meal.

The food was ok you can just buy it at a regular store so it was kinda overpriced here then regularly. Also the staff weren't as nice and welcoming. My sister and I couldn't finish our food because of how spicy it was and I asked if it was and they said no. I love spicy stuff which is fine but I couldn't eat it. Also a girls cup broke when she was making her ice cream+ juice pouch and they guy said he couldn't do anything when there was clearly a cup there in his face.

Such a cool spot right in the middle of Ktown. Reminds me of trips to Japan and Korea where you can cook up a pack of ramen right in a convenience store. There's a large assortment of noodle packs you can select from and some additional add ons you can get. You can have a piping hot bowl of ramen in 5 minutes which is so convenient if you're looking for a quick meal. They also serve açaí bowls and smoothies. We got one of the protein ones and it was delicious! Seats are pretty limited! Honestly, the price for a pack of ramen was a little high but I guess you're paying for the convenience of it! The service was good, too! We received help every step of the way in getting our ramen bowl just how we wanted it.

One of the best beet juices I've ever had. very clean and friendly staff. Parking in back.

My daughter brought us here (too). It was worth it! It was a super fun and delicious outing for all. Location: parking garage around the corner for pay. There is surrounding parking available meter ran. You go in and start with grabbing a beverage if you wish. We did. A ice cup with ice or ice & frozen fruit. You can pick from a coffee type of drink or a fruity kind (examples: grape, apple, peach tea, latte or coffee) Blue lemonade is gassssssssssss. Next you pick a ramen of your choice. They have different brands and different spice levels / flavors. There are posters with explanations on taste / spice level around the cafe. You also, if you want, add items. Items to add are eggs, spam, regular or spicy dumplings, corn, cheese, kimchi etc. There are free items available by the stations, white onion, green onion, jalapeños, lime.. When you pay they hand you a bowl that works with their machines to cook your ramen. They'll also give you a tray to take everything to your station. At your cooking station you'll want to read the how-to-cook-your-ramen instructions. Why? Well apparently if you don't stir often you can burn a hole in your bowl! Do you prefer cold noodles? They have instructions on how to as well. Pro tip: always add cheese and dumplings. The spicy ones are really good! I added photos of everything I just said & more. The 'more' is what I can only assume the SIP part of this cafe. They do sell smoothies, wellness shots & bowls. Forks, spoons and chopsticks are available. There are outside tables to sit and eat. Bus your own table! Take your trash / ramen bowl to the workers and they will dispose. SLURP SIP & ENJOY!

Perfect. Lunch break smoothie. Just a little expensive. Cool ramen bar concept for the noodle lovers

I love this place! Self serve ramen just like in Korea! Free toppings is a nice touch when getting your choice of ramen. Highly recommend!

I love new concepts. Sip and slurp part convince shop, part juice bar part restaurant. Walk in grab a bagged ramen of your choice with tons of options! Take the ramen to the register and pay for added toppings like kimchi, boiled egg, spam, cheese, potstickers and more, add your bagged ramen to a bowl and place in the machine which adds the right amount of water and starts to boil to the specific amount of time. After they have additional free toppings like onion, cilantro, lime, Chile's and sriracha mayo. The staff are they're to help along the way so that you are not lost. One of the best parts was the husband and wife who genuinely asked how everything was you can see the passion he has for this restaurant concept. Hand down will stop here at every opportunity to support good people!

What a fun, cost friendly experience to enjoy. The options are endless to pick from and the kind workers assist you to make sure you fully experience a DIY ramen. There are sides, condiments, drinks to add on. There is seating outside once your noodles are ready to eat. 3+ water boiling zone ; there weren't a lot of people so there was no waiting in line~ street parking in front or parking lot when u turn the corner.

Saw Slurp & Sip while walking by, first thing I see is the wall of RAMEN!!! Loved it! Nostalgic and Yummy at the same time! I got to pick my ramen of choice, put it in a bowl, place it in the water/ convection machine, cook it, add condiments , and EAT! Condiments right now are cilantro, jalapenos, onions, and lime. Would love to see more condiments like boiled egg, pickled radish, and green onion, to name a few Great concept! A must try!

What an experience! I am so impressed with the selection of noodles first of all. I've been dying to experience something like this after seeing all the tik toks of this place. I chose the carbonara noodles and added spam with an apple juice on the side. Truly impressed with how easy and quick everything was. The employees were super friendly and helpful teaching me how to do everything. I didn't feel rushed or like I was annoying. Can't wait to go back!

$35 for 2 ramen's and about 5 or 6 toppings + 2 drinks + 2 iced cups. Pretty pricey !! It was amazing though loved it but one time visit was enough for me. Staff were friendly and they have a unique section for drinks.

Pretty fun experience to go to a ramyeon bar. It ranges from $5.99 - $6.99. Grab a tray, pick a ramyeon, and go to the counter to pay. Cheese and egg is an add-on cost, but at the station they also have green onions, cilantro, lime, and onion free to add. Great for quick meals. They also have acai bowls, smoothies, and juices. The owner was super nice is helping us since it was our first time. ENJOY! PS: It'll mostly be street parking in Wilshire.

My daughter brought me here because her and my younger daughter have tried it before and loved it. It was hard to pick which ramen I wanted! But the owner is such a nice gentleman who helped us pick out what we wanted. He walked us through the whole process. He treated everyone the same as they arrived. He ensured everyone had the ramen the way they liked it and helped us all use the machine to cook our ramen. Loved this experience. It was perfect and again, can't say enough about the owners and staff. Wonderful people. Will definitely be back next time I visit my daughter.

Ramen never tasted soooo gooood. I like my Ramen little hard.on the noodle and until I was finished.noodle stayed as it was just made. Highly recommend this place. You are in for a treat

There were so many different ramens to choose from so it was really exciting! Wide variety of toppings were available and overall had an amazing time. I felt like I was back in Korea.

Place is good if you are visiting and want the experience. However if I wasn't visiting I wouldn't come back. Two ramens and two waters cost me about 20 dollars and the older woman working there was quite rude.

My first time here to experience the self cooking ramen. First, you get to pick the ramen and they have big variety of ramen from other countries. Then you go the cashier to pick the toppings and pay for the order. The staff will give you a special container and you will need to line up to the cooking machine. While lining up, you will have to unpack the ramen and put it inside the container. They also provide free toppings or garnish near the cooking machine. When it's your turn, the staff will help you with the instructions on how to operate the machine. After 5 minutes cooking, you can enjoy the ramen outside the store. They have very limited dining area in front of the store. The other downside is that the staff using the same chop sticks to mix your ramen and others' ramen on the cooking machine which I think it's not hygiene. The staff should use a new chop sticks for every single ramen. Over all, it's a good experience but will not come back due to the lack of hygienic treatment.

Never had any problems with customer service, they asked if everything was okay at all times and the food was pretty good, with a big variety of flavors and toppings to choose from.

Came here today with my brother and my kids and it was such a fun experience! I didn't catch the name of the gentleman who helped us, but he made the experience so fun for my kids and was so incredibly helpful! There were so many ramen options and lots of toppings! I can't wait to go back! The vibe in this place was amazing! So much fun!

Overhyped, so expensive, kids that go in there in annoying don't go during week after school hours they're all getting of school and make noise and a mess. Customer service was alright the best thing there was there prepackaged drinks but even then the cups were too big and had too much ice in it. It is NOT like those videos on YouTube where it is like a nice convenience store. It's a cute idea for a date night. The store is small with maybe four small tables outside but it's really noisy because you're in KOREATOWN. Between me and my husband it was $30 for two ramen packages and two drinks. Plus the cup of ice was $1.75. The toppings were also expensive for what they were. Overall it was a mediocre ramen experience. If they didn't overcharge it wouldn't be that bad. But literally just go to Hmart down the street and get ramen. If you're an influencer this is the place for you.

So many options, and the noodles are perfect! It was a fun and easy experience. I picked a spicy chicken soup noodle with some toppings, and it was so Yummy . It was gone in minutes, I look forward to my next visit. So glad this place is open.

Came for an event. Staff was very helpful. It's a cool concept of ramen and there's plenty of toppings and stuff u can add. A lil pricey but overall still an enjoyable experience.

This place absolutely hit the spot. The employees were very friendly and helpful. They made the ordering process so easy. The ramen itself was delicious. We also ordered smoothies, which were very tasty! Such a cute spot to go to. I would recommend to everyone I know.

This place is absolutely amazing! I saw this place on TikTok, and was immediately enthralled by the options, cleanliness, as well as the owner's hospitality and kindness. Their ramen exudes a nostalgia that reminds me of the mornings I spent in Nihombashi, Tokyo. In fact, I would say that this is one of the few places that really capture the essence of that experience. Enough for me to write a Yelp review (which i rarely ever do). I also had their greens juice, which was also amazing. I def recommend having their ramen though. Its affordable and delicious, with a plethora of toppings to choose from. I saw that the also sold Acai bowls, but I'm gonna stick with their ramen.

They stop serving juices and smoothies at 7:30 i was there last night 8/23/24 at 7:45pm and the two women there already shut down the juice bar the night. I drove all that way just to get an attitude from those two workers. They need to update their hours. why are you open until 9 if you stop serving smoothies at 7:30
