Customize your ramen , more garlic (it's free) or no egg , extra noodles , more spring onion . It's easy to get it perfect with their iPad ordering system . Sake selection at affordable prices .

Serious Eats

Modern, high-tech ramen shop in Little Osaka with iPad ordering for maximum customization. The Soul Ramen is a riff off of traditional tonkotsu .

Adam More

The ramen here is amazing. One of my favorite places in LA for ramen . Also it's pretty close to UCLA!

Deborah Abib

Tatsu is my favorite noodles place. The service is normally really fast, and the food is the delicious. I love the traditional and the red ramen . ❤️

Eater

This technologically savvy ramen joint makes diners order via an iPad strapped to the wall, making for a streamlined order for this 21st century comfort food . Read more

Joshua Villangca

One of the best ramen I've ever tasted! The iPad ordering system they have is the coolest! Also, I love how you can customize your own ramen . :) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ali Enright

Hippie ramen is a must for vegetarians ! Best veg ramen I've ever had

Kay

Best vegan / vegetarian broth in LA! Attached is a picture of the “vegan Hippie Ramen ”

Henry Thach

The red ramen is sweet and savory, one of my fav broths! You can't change up thin noodles for thick ones on the iPad but ask one of the cute male servers and they'll gladly oblige ;)

Meira Gottlieb

Quite a wait to get to the iPad to order, then an additional wait to sit. Decent ramen , but not worth all the waiting. I wouls do takeout , the ambiance wasn't amazing.

Rachel Mercer

Definitely try the no-broth ramen . It is amazing. iPad ordering stations ate nice - just make sure the waitstaff knows what table you took!

Ryan Williams

Come here for lunch m, dinner or take out . Any way you slice it, the Ramen is phenomenal. Bold Ramen is my personal favorite.

Arman Afghani

My favorite place to get ramen by far. Get the bold ramen , has a really great flavor!

Tiffany Prugpichailers

Press fresh garlic into your ramen . Makes it even MORE awesome. The red, bold, and soul ramens are all excellent.

Winnie Khoo

Fave: Naked Ramen , Bold Ramen ; Skip: soul ramen , pork bun (oily)

Koren Kordes

Not in the mood for eating out? Check out their online ordering. Works like a charm every time. Parking sucks for take out much of the time so we use the side street nearby and walk a short block.

Drew Shannon

As someone who prefers Shoyu ramen to richer tonkotsu ramen , I'm a big fan of the lighter soy-based "hippie" broth.

Ed H

Ramen noodle awesome. Can choose tofu and non gluten noodle for vegan diet.

Nico Donovan

Got the soul ramen . While I found the noodles too think the broth was very flavorful. The red rice was great as well

Anastasia Tumanova

Everything! The tonkatsu broth was delicious.

William Khoe

Love the Soul Ramen and Naked Ramen ! Open really late. Authentic ramen and great vibe.

Cody Krainock

The bold ramen and old school ramen are both delicious. However, the service can be slow - it took over 25 minutes to get my order one afternoon.

Jeremy Connors

Soul Ramen , "gluton free" w/ egg (gluton light is more like it...) YUM.

Kelly Bone

The vegan Naked Ramen is my favorite dish on Sawtell!

Martha Linden

The Red Ramen was delicious! Not too spicy . :)

Kelly Bone

Not quite "ramen " but the Naked Ramen is a delicious vegan option !

Jennifer

The naked ramen is great with tofu but the egg was kind of undercooked for me. Also, the breadcrumbs give the noodles a good crunch

Hana Afra

The Bold broth is delicious and the egg is boiled to perfection. Yum!

J G

Bold and black ramen are amazing!

Midtown Lunch LA

The tonkotsu is solid, but the naked ramen is the perfect summertime order.

Benn

The Ramen is very good. If you follow the crowds you will end up here.

Rita L

Ramen , good for a cold day

Allison Yu

Customized ramen bowls with iPad ordering! Love their noodles

Regina Octaviani

The naked ramen is definitely a must try!

Christina Chin

Order on screen then wait to be seated. Crowded place , ramen was decent

Dorian Roohi

So much amazing goodness! My go to ramen place !

Mahesh Paolini-Subramanya

They don't stint on the garlic here , and that's a good thing!

Frosty

Naked Noodles Vegan style, yes please!

Lynne ???? Qu

Long wait ! Figure out the actual wait time before put your order on the iPad, it was misleading. Some wait after sit down too. Not recommend for a quick meal late night .

Roger Ma

Soul ramen is where it's at!

Derek Povah

Bold is the one to get and dont forget to add more heat.

Betty

Open 'til 3am! Staff are awesome. Bold ramen is good. Ordering and tip are on the ipad.

Christie H

Love the iPad ordering system ! Well-designed and super efficient

Michael Kalec

Really liked this. Ramen was really good.

Gianni Shih

Trying to be all fancy and tech-savy with iPad ordering machines that don't even work. Good job.

McKenzie Tritt

Soul ramen ! Best ramen I've ever had.

Janet Anne Panen

Just upgraded their menu--they now have "soul ramen " and "black ramen ." SO MANY CHOICES!

Suzy Ryoo

Two ramen options only. Broth or no broth. Go with a friend to try both!

Nicholas Grayson

Good Ramen , great for late night dining .

Janet Anne Panen

You order off iPads! So cool. Free corn/garlic/seaweed add-ons.
