  I went for dinner this Tuesday 04/21, the food was perfect , prices amazing for the kind of restaurant and location , but the service was totally bad , the young asian lady who was our server , she never told us her name and say at less welcome , we got the food but she never came to our table to ask if we need something,when we finished , I had to wait to much time to request for dessert, at the end, I had to ask to other server for dessert, we got the bill from this server ,and finally our Asian server came to the table to pick up the bill , when we left she never say thank you or something!! I felt so bad for this server attitude, I will never return to this restaurant, I work in this industry and I know the costumers service , and this kind of service is not acceptable !!

  I recently visited Hinodeya Ramen & Bar in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles, and had a mixed experience. The “House Ramen” came with a broth that was extremely intense - so much so that it overpowered the rest of the ingredients and made it difficult to appreciate the balance of flavors. While some may enjoy a bold broth, this one felt a bit too dominant. On the other hand, the “Spicy Miso Butter Corn” ramen was moderately spicy and much more enjoyable overall. It had a better balance of flavors and was definitely a stronger choice compared to the classic option. One downside was the portion of meat in the ramen, which felt quite small.

  Sooo… as much as I wanted to leave a 5 star review I just can’t. I came here with my husband really craving a spicy miso ramen. So we ordered 2 of these. When the waiter came to drop our food off, they mentioned another name for the miso, we didn’t really catch it in the moment until we tried the broth and it was not spicy at all! I asked the waitress what the name of the ramen was and she said it was the spicy miso… so we just trusted her. I did take a picture of our food and then saw a picture on the menu of what the spicy miso actually looks like and it was not the same color at all which just confirmed to me she didn’t want to own up to it and just lied to our face which is crazy because we wouldn’t have gotten mad we were just confused why it wasn’t spicy at all. Mind you the miso is an 2$ extra than the one they brought us. 4$ which is not a lot of $ but it’s the principle of it. Additionally, the ramen to broth portion is off in my opinion, too much ramen and too little broth to enjoy (broth was amazing btw) to be fair. Lastly, they do not offer any validation for parking which is 15$. There should be some consideration for customers dining here. Just my reasons why I’m rating this place 3 stars total.

  Shrimp tempura and pork cutlet were mushy inside. Outside was kinda crispy, but not the usually airy crispy that you'd expect from a good Japanese restaurant. Ramen was OK, but the broth was very salty. I went there because of the high rating, but have to say the food was disappointing.
