Editorial Description for Orochon Ramen

Japanese soup spot in Little Tokyo's Weller Court is known for ramen specials of varying spice, fun atmosphere.

Insider Tips

Look Good

The ordering process is pretty straightforward: You start with a choice of miso, soy or salt soup, then indicate your preferred spice level (seven being mild, special No. 2 being the most intense), then decide on toppings from garlic and butter to pork and egg.

The Extras

Anyone who can finish a bowl of the special No. 2 will get his/her photo on a billboard in the restaurant and on the website.

Parking

Validated parking is available underground on levels B1 and B2.

User Reviews for Orochon Ramen

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

We used to love this place, but our last visit there was a very poor experience. The noodle in our soup was undercooked and was stuck together in a lump, and when we made the waiter take it back, they simply fished out the noodles, cooked it some more, and gave the same bowl back to us. The noodles were still stiff. And the Gyoza we usually order came out soggy, oily, and falling apart. I'm not sure what has happened at Orochon, but we won't be back anytime soon.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Decided to dine her because Daikokuya was packed and we were REALLY hungry! I have to say if it weren't for Daikokuya being so crowded I wouldn't have stumble upon this place which is just as good! I had the shio soup ramen SO GOOD! However, what I don't like about it is that the ramen doesn't really come with anything you have to add on stuff like chasu, egg, etc...The price just keeps adding up, but I guess it is OK if it taste good.

Pros: Broth

Cons: Add-ons
