Fujiya Ramen & Yakitori - Ramen Near Me - Arcadia, California

Went out to eat here with a friend, the food was delicious! And at a reasonable price! Another perk is that they're open until midnight which made it a good spot for late dinner. Portions are pretty good, and Lynn our host was very helpful and attentive to our experience/questions. It was a delight to have Lynn as our host, we had excellent recommendations as well for food! Definitely try the skewers, my friend and I got the quail egg wrapped in pork belly, and crab meat mushroom skewers Food ordered : beef bowl, pork katsu curry, miso soup (2 servings), squid plate, skewers; quail egg wrapped in pork belly, and crab meat stuffed mushrooms read more

I was craving for Ramen and found Fujiya Ramen & Yakitori on Yelp. What had originally caught my attention was that I am a huge fan of Uncle Roger on YouTube, and Fujiya reminded me of his favorite saying of "fuiyoh!!!". LOVE Nigel Ng! I got to Fuhiya at around 5:00pm on a Saturday night and there was only 1 table of 2 dining. As the night went by, there were gradually more customers and it became pretty packed by the time we left at around 7:00pm. They had two front of house staff and one of them was very hospitable and took her time to introduce us to their menu and made recommendations on their most popular items (Chicken & Pork Belly skewers) and drinks (Yuzu sake). All 3 turned out to be my favorite items of the night! I actually ended up only ordering Yakitori but made a promise to myself to return soon to try their ramen. There were both pros and cons about Fujiya: - Pro - Pork Belly & Chicken Yakitori was on point. I tried both the original (with house sauce) and Salted and BOTH were very delicious! The price averaged to about $9/2 (higher for seafood). - Pro - Super friendly staff! The lady who served us was so nice! She was either the owner or the manager because she was very sociable and recognized all the returning customers. Such a cute lady! - Con- I was not a huge fan of the shrimp, scallop, or mushrooms only because to its presentation. It just wasn't aesthetically appealing to me. Nowadays, we tend to search for places to eat where the food is as tasty as it looks, because our Cameras always eats first. We had a nice dining experience at Fujiya Ramen & Yakitori and I do highly recommend for everyone to support our local businesses. read more

I accidentally stumbled upon this place while craving Japanese food, and I'm so glad I did! Surprisingly, this restaurant has been open for two years and is practically next to my house, yet I had no idea there was such a wonderful ramen and Japanese grill skewers spot nearby. The owner is a passionate, friendly, and energetic Taiwanese lady who immediately made us feel welcome. Even though we had just met, our conversation flowed so naturally that it felt like we had known each other for years. Her warmth and enthusiasm really added to the entire dining experience. Most importantly, the food was amazing. We tried the ramen, the yakitori platter, and the special Taiwanese pork bun, and every dish was delicious and full of flavor. You can tell that a lot of care and attention goes into the food. The restaurant itself is also very neat, clean, and comfortable. Great food, wonderful hospitality, and a welcoming atmosphere, what more could you ask for? I'm so happy I discovered this hidden gem, and I'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended! read more

I'm mixed about this place. Parts of me wants to love it but other parts of me finds things here and there odd. Interior has a Japanese restaurant style going on, though something felt a little off. The waitress was nice and attentive but also felt a little pushy or assertive. Mixed because I like getting recommendations but I also don't want to feel pressured into getting the recommendations. The ramen was kinda sweet? I don't think I've had any ramen before where I would consider sweet one of the flavor profiles. Generally I would use brothy, rich, umami, creamy, salty, oily, or smooth to describe ramen soup, never sweet. Outside of that, it's just average ish level ramen, no complaints but nothing to go crazy about Soba had a decent broth, something familiar and in the realm of what I'd expect. Noodles were a bit rough and grainy but I think that's just the type of soba noodles. I don't know enough about soba to accurately critique it but it wasn't bad. The karaage or fried chicken and the recommended chicken skewer were alright. Price wise, things are in the average realm of what you would direct from a ramen joint. This place also closes later than a lot of other ramen places. They also offer mints when giving you the check which is a nice small touch that I don't see many restaurants going anymore. If the ramen broth as more standard, I think I would be open to being a repeating customer since most places close early but I think with the other options near me, I would not make this a top pick unless it was late read more

Just discovered a hidden gem izakaya in Arcadia! Their ramen and Japanese yakitori are both excellent. Except for Sundays (when they close at 10 PM), they're open until midnight, making it a great new late-night dining spot for Arcadia locals. At first, I thought this was mainly a ramen restaurant based on the name, but I was pleasantly surprised by their yakitori. The $25.30 assorted skewer platter is a great deal, featuring 8 skewers including chicken wings, pork belly, sausages, and more. I especially loved their house-made sauce--it has a unique flavor that I haven't tasted anywhere else. We also ordered grilled eel, crab mushroom, and grilled squid, and every dish left us wanting more. A special shoutout to the soft-shell crab bao. It's such an unexpected combination, but it worked incredibly well and tasted even better than I imagined. As for the ramen, the noodles had a great texture and the portions were generous. The restaurant has a cozy Japanese-style atmosphere that reminds me of a traditional late-night Japanese diner. Whether you're stopping by for lunch, grabbing dinner after work, or enjoying a few drinks with friends, it's a wonderful place to visit. Highly recommended if you're looking for authentic Japanese comfort food in Arcadia! read more

It's really unfortunate, but I regret coming here. Was really excited about their yakitori as there seems to be some raving reviews. However, I got their platter and it came out warm/cold. It was obviously they grilled it previously and then just heat it up a little before serving. I expect my food to taste fresh, or at-least come out hot. I should have noticed when the platter came out some quickly. It did have a nice taste overall otherwise, and still ate it. I am regretful though. Otherwise, their main ramen tasted very good. The chasu meat was very good and the Ramen came out hot. The oyster that was off the menu was amazing. Place is really cute and very Japanese. Honestly, I won't be coming back. I can't help, but feel like I was fed leftover skewers. The host was so nice, but unfortunately something was wrong with the cook. I should have not eaten the platter and hope I don't get sick. Update: I am pretty sure this gave me stomach issues, but instead of the skewers, maybe the oyster. read more

I don't know if my experience is the standard experience, because the night I went was late and there was a gigantic party of people who were super drunk, and the chefs I believe were a part of it, as I saw two guys go back into the kitchen briefly once we ordered. I mean, there were like numerous empty pitchers, giant bottles of sake, and even bottles of beer on top of that. These people deserve to have fun, but it was noisy as heck that night, and I'm not sure the chefs were on their usual game, so I can only review what we experienced. They are a small join in Arcadia in a strip mall with tons of parking. Service was sober and friendly enough. The food, unfortunately, was not very good. The pan fried gyoza were the best part of the meal. Really decent. The chicken yakitori was dark meat chicken, which I hate. It was super rubbery and chewy. I really don't understand why anyone in their right mind prefers dark meat to white meat chicken, unless you love the feeling of chewing on a wad of rubber bands. The regular tonkatsu ramen was bland and oily. Not good. The volcano ramen, despite being a dark red, was surprisingly not spicy at all. Still, it was better than the tonkatsu. The big problem was whoever chopped up the cubes of chashu must've surely been drunk, because almost all of it was just cubes of fat with no meat on it. A sad experience, as I'd like to find more decent ramen places close to home, but they keep disappointing. So far it's either Sato in Old Town Pasadena or Slurpin' Ramen in either Koreatown or City of Industry. I won't be back. Can't recommend. However, to be fair, they are open late when most places are closed AND quite a few people came in to pick up take out. I'm not sure if that's because of the late hours and this is all they could find, like us, or if the quality is better when the workers aren't drunk off their gourds (allegedly; I think). read more

Great service and delicious ramen. The yakitori sampler set was a deal For $25. There was a variety of skewers that everyone was pleased with. We arrived at 5 and when we left at 6:30 it was busy. Come here if you want a hearty meal with ramen and some skewers to too it off. read more

Location is in the corner of a plaza. I came for lunch at 1ish and it was empty. Two other parties came later. I came here specifically for the yakitori cause that's what I've been craving but they had ramen (including a lobster ramen that looked interesting) and Japanese curry (which our family is still looking for a comparable replacement for curry house). All skewer plates came with two skewers which i didn't know so I was pleasantly surprised at which makes the cost relatively par for skewers. They were $6-7 a plate. It still added up so I wish the had a skewer combo that you could chose cause the only skewer combo plate had skewers I didn't want. They also were out of beef, except the $30 waygu, so that was disappointing. Here are the skewers I got ranked in order of deliciousness: - Chicken cartilage. My go to skewer item. I know most people like my husband dislikes this and it's more of a leftover item that's been marketed as more than it should be but I love it. - Pork with Enoki Mushrooms. Slice of pork belly wrapped around enoki mushrooms. I think it would have been better if it was beef but it still had the same effect and was good. - Chicken. Standard chicken. Not overcooked but there was a couple of pieces where I wondered if it was under and just prayed I don't get sick. - Squid Legs. I love squid legs and these were good. Smoky but just didn't taste as fresh and clean as I hoped for. - Japanese Sausage. These came out late. I had to remind them but when I did it came out fast. I felt a little cheated cause it was cut in half and they skewered. A better presentation would just be to get smaller sausages so it doesn't looked like I was cheated half a portion. It was also super salty. Definitely needed a dipping sauce to counter that or something. It had a nice bite to it though but it was the only thing I really regretted ordering. All the skewers had the same sauce. Kinda salty but not too salty. They all also came with a slice of lime which was definitely needed to lift the dish. The decor looks clean and modern. It was clean but didn't feel like the ac was blasting despite it being a heat wave. It didn't feel uncomfortable but I wish it was a little cooler. Service was friendly and fast. I had to wave them down for a water refill the first time but she came back the second time on her own. There's only one bathroom. It was clean but I I always take note when it's only one bathroom for an entire restaurant. Long story short, I'd come again to try the ramen and curry and get some more chicken cartilage skewers. read more

Came here for the Japanese yakitori and ordered a yakitori combo. Everything was delicious, but the grilled chicken wings were definitely my favorite!

Fujiya Ramen & Yakitori - Mix Yakitori Platter(8) Grilled Squid Grilled Oyster - Ramen Near Me - Arcadia, California

We've always passed this place and wanted to try it. My son ordered the tonkatsu ramen(didn't take a pic) and I got the volcano ramen. Food review for the volcano ramen in the picture. I asked my son how his ramen was and he compared it to another ramen place across the street. He said the broth was not as rich. Service was great. Very attentive and as soon as you came in, we got seated. Granted it was 545pm, place didn't have the dinner rush. Place was wide open and decor was right on for the restaurant. read more

Fujiya Ramen & Yakitori - 1.Fujiya Chashu Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Arcadia, California

Came here for dinner with friends and family after checking out christmas lights in the neighborhood of duarte and pasadena. It was my first time here with our family. I had the volcano Ramen. The volcano Ramen had a nice spice to it not too spicy. It was quite good. The Chu shoe was cut up into smaller pieces than your typical whole slice chasu. quite nice allowed to balance the noodles with the meat. Soup had a nice balance. It tasted and paired well with the noodles and chasu. We also ordered their pork bun which i enjoyed think Chinese pork wrap. Very good in my opinion. Would definitely come back when in the area and would try their other ramen the next time. Highly recommend checking it out at least once to see if you like what they offer. Service was good the waitress was attentive and checked in on us to make sure things were tasting well and to our liking. Very pleased with service. read more

Was excited to try this place because of the yelp reviews, but we were just overall disappointed today. We went today around 12:30pm on a Saturday and was seated quickly. There was only one server bussing all the tables, taking orders, and bringing out the food. I dont know if they were short staffed today or if this is their usual service. We tried to be understanding as possible, but we could also tell other tables were also getting annoyed with what was happening too. It took forever to flag her down to collect our marked order that is on a piece of paper. Then 15 minutes go by, only the ramen comes out. Then, another 15 minutes go by and my friend is done eating their ramen and then I get my unagi bowl. However, it is missing the miso soup that it is supposed to come with. I ask the server about it and she says it will come out soon. Another 15 minutes go by, still no miso soup and the curry dish comes out. We didn't get any napkins or spoons or even water refils because trying to flag her down to come back was nearly impossible. We just tried to eat our food as soon as possible because we were just so over it. Once we asked for the bill, she asked if I still wanted my miso soup even though clearly we were all done eating. She finally brought it out with the bill and you can tell the miso soup has just been sitting there. I didn't even have a spoon to sip it with and didn't finish it. Overall, we are not coming back. Food was meh and the service was just so disappointing. read more

This yakitori spot has a warm, intimate atmosphere and feels very well put together. The charcoal-grilled skewers were cooked with care -- clean flavors, nicely balanced seasoning, and great texture.

We've passed by Fujiya Ramen many times and finally decided to give it a try. It's a Chinese-owned ramen spot with a great selection of appetizers and skewers in addition to their ramen. We shared okra, scallop skewers, chicken wings, and chicken skewers. Both the tonkatsu and cha shu ramen came in generous portions, the broth was rich, and the noodles had that perfect bouncy, chewy texture I like. The cha shu was tender and flavorful, and we finished every bite. My husband added extra toppings like bamboo shoots, egg, and fish cake to his ramen, which made it even more hearty. It was a bit pricey around $100 dinner for two, all the small plates do add up quickly. Overall, it was a satisfying meal, and I'll definitely keep Fujiya in mind next time I'm craving ramen. read more

Came here on Mother's day to in anticipation for a good yakitori meal and we were underwhelmed. Noticed that this place is Chinese owned, I began to expect a Chinese skewer like yakitori. There was nothing that stood out to us and my wife thought the chicken heart pieces tasted old. The ramen was also mediocre at best. It didn't help that the AC was not on so it was a bit stuffy/warm in there. At least the draft beer was refreshing. I would recommend finding elsewhere for your yakitori craving. read more

Our experience took an unexpected turn over what seemed to be a misunderstanding. While discussing payment options with my friends, I said "아줌마 (ajumma)." I was not referring to the waitress. She apparently overheard the word, believed I was addressing her, and became very upset. She yelled at us, said the restaurant was closed, and repeatedly told us to leave. I understand that "ajumma" can be interpreted differently depending on the context. In Korean, it generally refers to a middle-aged woman and can be similar to "auntie." I had no intention of insulting or addressing the waitress. What disappointed me most was how quickly the situation escalated instead of giving us an opportunity to explain. A simple conversation could have cleared up the misunderstanding, but instead what had been a pleasant meal ended on a very uncomfortable note. read more

I randomly stumbled upon this spot on Yelp since I was craving skewers and saw that they had them. It was pretty empty on Wednesday for dinner. The interior was nice, and they had a solid menu. Here's what I tried: Mixed Skewers (8 pieces) - Although the menu says you can pick, this set was preselected. The selection was decent, but I wish you could actually choose which skewers to get. That said, the flavors were really good and I enjoyed the grilled taste. (4.5/5) Fujiya Chashu Ramen - We really enjoyed this one. The broth wasn't too thick, and they gave plenty of pork. The noodles were good too. (4.5/5) Beef Rice Bowl - A very simple dish, but definitely tasty. Nothing to complain about--it's just a solid beef bowl. (4/5) Overall, the food was delicious, the service was quick, and the restaurant itself was beautiful. I'd definitely come back since, in my opinion, this is one of the better ramen spots in Arcadia. Parking - Super easy. The lot is rarely full, and I think there's underground parking as well. read more

Fujiya Ramen & Yakitori - Ramen Near Me - Arcadia, California

My girlfriends and I were celebrating a birthday and an hour and a half into our meal, our server flipped out on us when she overheard, "ahjumma." For context- we're Korean and the server is Chinese. "Ahjumma" means older woman or auntie. We were talking amongst ourselves and jokingly referring to each other as "ahjumma" when our server accused us of using the term negatively to describe her. She berated us, took away our food and drinks and basically yelled at us like a psychopath. Check your language and translation facts before you treat paying customers like that. The server with the shoulder length highlighted hair is obviously very misguided into what the term actually translates to. If you want to get yelled at, eat here. read more

I was quite underwhelmed by Fujiyama Ramen. The service was a bit slow. We arrived around 8pm I assume after rush hour since it wasn't too busy. We finished filling out our order form but it still took a bit before they came by to grab it. For the food: Beef Shoyu Ramen - decent flavor but nothing outstanding. I'm glad that it wasn't overly salty though. The beef reminded me of the beef that they serve at Marugame Udon the same flavor and cook. Their noodles were cooked well and they provided enough garnish. Their egg was quite salty though. Tonkatsu Ramen - my wife ordered this and although it also tasted decent she said the chashu was underwhelming and the noodles were too soft even. Though we selected "hard" for both our soups. I tried her broth and it was unremarkable. It wasn't bad or salty but it lacked the depth of what I used to with a good tonkatsu Pork Belly with Asparagus - literally asparagus wrapped in bacon with some soy-mirin glaze. I was expecting the larger cuts of pork belly like how they serve them at authentic yakitori places. Again, flavor was decent but nothing spectacular Chicken Skewers - they were alright. There wasn't much flavor with them. The cut was alright they stayed juicy so they had that going for them. read more

My friend and I came on a Sunday during lunch and it was not busy.

Service was attentive and friendly. The restaurant is located in The Arcadia Landmark plaza with a large shared parking lot, so parking was easy. read more

Fujiya Ramen & Yakitori - Ramen Near Me - Arcadia, California

This was one of the most mediocre ramen experiences we've ever had. The manager/owner came across as unfriendly and somewhat rude. When she asked if it was our first time visiting, we said yes, and she introduced a few menu items. However, when we ended up ordering only three bowls of ramen because we felt that would be enough, she seemed noticeably unhappy with our order. After placing our order, we waited about 20 minutes for our food. While we were waiting, I jokingly told my friend, "This place better be good if we're waiting this long it better be worth it." The table next to us overheard and replied, "It's just alright." At the time we laughed and thought they were being tough critics, but after getting our food, we completely understood what they meant. When the ramen arrived, it looked very basic, like premade or store-bought noodles that could easily be replicated at home. The ramen included only half of an egg, and it wasn't even prepared like a traditional ramen egg. The portion size was also surprisingly small. I finished my bowl in about three minutes and felt like I spent more time waiting than actually eating. We were still hungry after finishing our meals and ended up going elsewhere for tacos afterward. For the price and wait time, we expected a much more satisfying meal. Unfortunately, between the service, attitude, food quality, and portion sizes, this was not a memorable dining experience for the right reasons. This was our first visit, and it will be our last. read more
