This place is a hidden gem! My friend was craving Japanese food, and I was craving skewers, so this was the perfect spot for our Friday afternoon brunch! There was no wait when we arrived, and our server, Ling, was absolutely wonderful! She was so friendly, attentive, and sweet throughout our entire meal. She recommended some of the restaurant's popular dishes, along with a few of her favorite skewers, which we really appreciated. She also checked in on us throughout our meal to make sure everything tasted good and that we had everything we needed. We ordered the tonkatsu ramen, and it was so good! The broth was just perfect--not too heavy or salty, but light, flavorful, and delicious. We also tried the grilled shrimp, chicken, and sakura pork belly skewers, and everything was really yummy! The pork belly skewer was definitely our favorite--it's a MUST-TRY! We'll definitely be coming back with our families because they love good ramen and skewers too! Thank you so much, Ling, for the amazing service and for making our experience so enjoyable. We'll definitely be back again! (: read more

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

A love letter to every restaurant that's actually open late and doesn't make you feel like a burden for showing up at 10:30pm. We see you. We appreciate you. Black garlic tonkotsu ramen is solid, not the best I've had but absolutely the best available when it's almost 11pm and my options are me, myself, and drive thru. The yakitori platter is great value, super reasonable prices, and the husband and I enjoyed every bite. Clean, plenty of tables, zero wait, good service, and most importantly, nobody rushed us out. Will be back the next time we're out way past our bedtime. 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'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

Really disappointing! Wanted to like it , saw all the good reviews , ordered yakitori wings and ate raw chicken ! To be fair , she graciously took the item off the check but I hope I don't get sick! And their restroom is clean . I'd stay clear from the yakitori especially the chicken wing when I showed her she mentioned they were frozen chicken wings prior to being cooked . The ramen was decent and safe choice but the meats on the ramen had odd textures . read more

Fujiya Ramen & Yakitori - Raw wings . Hope I don't get sick - Ramen Near Me - Arcadia, California

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

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.

Very delicious yakitori and one of the best beef shoyu ramen I've ever had. I prefer the ramen and yakitori here more than the food at the more popular, Kyuramen x tbaar down the street in Arcadia. Also a great advantage about this restaurant's location is that there's plenty of parking in the lot that it shares with other great stores such as Ben Gong tea shop and Tokyo Wako restaurant. read more

Fujiya Ramen & Yakitori - Squid tentacles, chicken cartilage, & pork belly/enoki mushroom yakitori - Ramen Near Me - Arcadia, California

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

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

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

We arrived today at 7:25pm and waited for half an.hour before we seated ourselves as there were empty tables.

It is our first time there. The service was so bad. We left without eating. read more

Not worth the money, food quality is bad. My genuine suggestion is not to try. It's not worth your time and money for this. You can spent the same money in any other yakotori shop for better quality food. read more

Fujiya Ramen & Yakitori - Pork belly with enoki mushroom - Ramen Near Me - Arcadia, California

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

Awesome food and great service! Tried this place kind of randomly and it has definitely become my favorite spot for ramen!

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

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

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

My boyfriend and I decided we needed ramen on one of the hottest days ever so we stopped here on a Saturday around 3:00. The waitress was extremely attentive and friendly, immediately explained the menu to us and told us about the specials. The atmosphere is really classy inside, they even have reusable chopsticks instead of the wood ones every other place has. Like I said, it was extremely hot outside and the inside was fresh enough but when you're eating hot ramen you definitely will still sweat. We both ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen with no spice and it was delicious. The broth was light but savory, the meat was cooked well. The noodles were soft and the portion was definitely enough to fill you up. She also brought us a chili oil for some spice. We didn't get any appetizers but the people around us all did and they all left their plates clean, so that should tell you they enjoyed it. Would definitely recommend and come here again read more

The food--noodles, meat, and fish--tasted ordinary. Although everything was cooked properly, the flavors were quite plain and nothing really stood out. The noodle soup was average and lacked a rich, flavorful broth. The beef and rice were just ordinary, with nothing special about their taste or texture. The fish was rather dry, making it less enjoyable to eat. Overall, the meal was filling, but it was not memorable or surprising in any way. read more
