    Ramen was really good. Favorite in Sawtelle so far. I got takeout. They’re also open late which is something I find really nice. Good spicy tuna and quick wait time!

    Daikokuya is the REAL deal. 🔥🍜 Thank you to Mel Tommy ktoro From the second we walked in, the staff greeted us like we were family. Top-tier customer service — attentive, fast, and they got our order right the first time. No long wait, no confusion… just straight excellence. And the FOOD? Absolutely out of this world. The flavors hit so hard it felt like we were sitting in Japan. Rich broth, perfectly cooked noodles, everything balanced to perfection. Straight killer taste. My wife and I are not new to ramen — we’ve been all over SoCal trying spot after spot every weekend in LA. Places are usually a one-and-done… or they earn regular status. Daikokuya just became HOME for ramen. 🏆 Easy 10 stars. If you’re reading this and love real ramen — stop thinking and go. You’ll thank me later.

    We happened to go to this one because it's on the way home but it was by the Best Ramen I had in LA. Even better than their original restaurant in Little Tokyo.
