Not there anymore

by kuchikitaicho at Citysearch

I have lived near Yokohama all my life and it was by far my most favorite Ramen house here in America. hen one day when i was in Japan they literally disappeared and they are not there anymore. It was replaced by this really bad restaurant called asian-ya. If you want good ramen then the next closest place that is very good is Ramen-ya on Olympic 3 blocks west of sawtelle next to the frame store.

• Pros: Great food, good atmosphere
• Cons: Not there anymore

Not Just Delicous Ramen

Yokohama Ramen - Fantastic food at a marvelous price. My current favorite & recommendation is the Mabo Bowl (2 meals in one). This bowl has a spicy thick soup base with tofu, veggies and ground pork. The seating area is clean/bright to enjoy your meal with friendly server(s) coming to your table.

If you are in a fine dinning mood you can try the "otherside" of Yokohama. A great date place with a with warm earth tones and wood accents. The menu is an Asian fusion. I tried the apple chicken and my date had the miso chicken. We both were impressed with our meals. The both dishes were flavorful with the chicken being moist. Also, try the White Russians.

I can't wait to go back to the "Other Side" and try the other dishes on the menu. Give it a try as you will be pleasantly surprised.

• Pros: Food for all, New Dishes, Great portions

I've been there a bunch for times already and I love it! For the price you get HUGE bowls of ramen and soup. I'm pretty partial to the wonton soup and spicy miso ramen. They serve beer, wine and sake too. There is actually 2 sections to the restaurant. One side serves ramen and soup mainly and the other side is more of a lounge/bar area that serves more sake and finer meals. Portions are plenty and delicous. On the downside, parking can sometimes be a pain, due to the small lot. But there is plenty of street parking. Also the waitress staff is Japanese (though the do speak English), but special orders may be hard to translate. I definitely recommend this place.

• Pros: Price, Portions, Ambiance/Music
• Cons: Parking
