Tatsu Ramen

Okay, so first time great service. Second time we had an issue with our order. Let the Manager at the time know, Garrett. He and the GM Derrick took care of it ( directly ) and provided exceptionally excellent service. Hands down the best Managers I have ever seen in the food industry. And the staff was pleasant and accommodating. The atmosphere is cool, modern, open and bright; very cool building and their chairs are surprisingly comfortable for being hard wood lol. Their food, diabolically delicious. I mean yes, you had ramen before, you had them all. HOWEVER, the broth is flavorful not flat and watery, the toppings are just as tasty! We had a birria ramen and a classic ramen on this visit. Just, Amazing, I can keep on with this review but I fear its going to be one of those "tldr" reviews. Bottom line, Do Not Hesitate going to TATSU RAMEN especially the one close to DTLA on Hewitt. I recommend them 1000%. Well, okay 1 kinda "eeehhh" thing is, parking is limited. But Completely worth it in my opinion. #tatsuramenbestramen

Came here for lunch while we visited LA. This was our first time at this location but we have been to other Tatsu Ramen places in around LA. This one by far is the most open and spacious that we have been to. It was bright and inviting. Parking is a bit of a challenge - there are some metered parking nearby with some paid lots as well. When you come in you are greeted warmly right away and directed to one of the tablets to place your order. We ordered 2 Bold and 2 Old Skool Ramen's. The family likes all the customizations you are able to do like add various toppings (and their levels), type of noodles, and spice level. After we ordered and paid we were shown to a table that was already prepared for us. We thought that was a nice touch - they set a table with waters for everyone while we were ordering. Food came out hot and tasty. The quality at Tatsu Ramen is very consistent and this place was great. I think this is not only our new favourite ramen place but our favourite location as well! Restrooms were big and clean as well. Staff were friendly. Food was great. Place is spacious and bright. Will definitely come back.

I found this place by word of mouth. It’s amazing how there’s so many nice little spots in LA even if you live in the same area, you may not never know it’s there. This is one of those places for me. I’m very late to the party on this place! I had the slow cooked Bold Ramen. Absolutely delicious. The broth was 🔥the noodles were cooked perfectly. Get the egg in the soup 🍲 if you like eggs👌🏾 I also enjoyed the spicy extra chili oil and the cute cartoons on the bag! Everything was also labeled:-) Super good y’all! On the night I picked this up the place looked lively. Seems like it may be a great place to dine in too. We’ll see!

What an extraordinary place atmosphere this is crazy cool, amazing manager and staff, felt so welcomed appreciated delicious Ramen! A must have definitely!!!

Having been a Tatsu customer since it first opened its Melrose location, this spot Downtown brings me back to those early days when rich flavorful broth was still hard to come by in LA. If it was your first time eating there, you knew you'd be finishing the entire bowl. My go-to Red Ramen had some of the thickest and most perfectly seasoned broth I think I've eaten at Tatsu. My wife's Hippie Ramen was almost like a French onion soup in the best way, but not nearly as heavy. We also got a side of chicken rice - big eyes I know, but we had to finish it. I love that the size of this location is pretty well accommodating - it's definitely bigger than any other location and the kitchen layout seems much more suitable for busier rushes. Tatsu is still my favorite ramen outside of Japan, and this location in DTLA takes the top spot of Tatsu shops.

Back to my fav place and i just knew they opened in downtown LA. The manager Garret is so friendly and responsible. Loves the service and the food. My husband went to the other branch and did not love the food there but the one here, he loves. My fav is naked ramen. Will surely comeback and recommend everyone to try this item

Worker was really chill he had a sleeve tattoo. The atmosphere is amazing and large. A cool kitchen view which looks really clean aswell. Would dine here again

Ordered the bold ramen and it was soooo good! The broth was rich and flavorful and the egg was the perfectly cooked. Please open up in the OC!
