From hot food to frozen waygu to noodles of all brands and snacks from Japan! They even have a hand roll restaurant inside! I will have to try one day! Today I came and picked up some snacks with my son on the way back to our stay. I got the samanco corn ice cream and my son got himself a frozen bowl of ramen for later and some chicken karage. He loved the karaage .. and has not tried the ramen yet. The corn fish shaped ice cream was unique. Tasted like frozen sweet cream corn lol .. I like it cuz I like corn anything lol but I'm sure some will find it weird tasting lol

We decided to go back, reluctantly, because my daughter needed more miso soup mix. It was after 8:00 PM and we were hoping to not see or encounter Irene. Thankfully, we didn't. When we went to pay for our items, Jimmy greeted us with a nice smile and was very friendly. He seemed genuinely happy to be there. Tokyo Central...you definitely need more employees like Jimmy working at your establishment. I guarantee more people will return and become repeat customers on a regular basis.

Sometimes they can have a long wait, but that proves that they are great at their craft. Not only do they serve ramen, but they also offer rice bowls if you aren't in the mood for something soupy. They are a small shop, but I am always impressed with how quick the food comes out no matter how busy or how slow the restaurant may be. This is a great place for the winter or if you are out late with friends and you want to eat some good food!

This is a staple for CSUF students as I've heard and when my friends went there, this place was…read morerecommended and hyped by them. Ages ago, during Titan-con, the anime/nerd convention run by the college, my friends and I decided to grab some ramen here. I could barely fit in the car since I couldn't take the Oda Nobunaga hat off of my head without taking off the wig, so that was a very hilarious memory. We came slightly before the weekend lunch rush so we didn't have to wait, but I can see this place getting super busy and fisted. There's bar counter seating (which we got) that surrounds the entire kitchen area and a decent amount of tables, but knowing people's love for ramen, and how a lot of the OC is a hellscape, it can get quite fisted. Service was friendly and welcoming, being in such a busy area and near a college, I'm sure staff have seen and experienced much more and polite people in cosplay weren't too much of a shock. I got their Aka Ramen which is made from kara (spicy) miso. Comes with 2 pieces of chashu and a seasoned soft boiled egg. I'm not a fan of beansprouts, so I made sure to donate this to a friend. Nice rich miso broth, and like many Japanese restaurant places (that don't have the ability to super build and customize), it has a slight heat, but not super spicy in the slightest. Noodles are thin style and had a nice texture to it that went well with the broth. Overall, not bad.

This is my go-to ramen/sushi spot. Usually when people want ramen, I prefer coming here because…read morethere are so many more delicious options. As someone who prefers sushi, this is my kinda joint spot. The dragon balls are worth getting everytime, as well as the salmon lovers roll. The salmon is fresh and high quality considering the price. The bill is never crazy which makes this a spot I'll keep coming back to. Servers are always super attentive and sweet. Clean establishment as well. It can get busy in here sometimes though, so get here early.

Restaurant is on the first floor towards the back and is super chic inside. Restaurant itself is not very big, so you may encounter a wait.. but it's worth it. Plus the staff is friendly - they tell you up front about the included 17% gratuity. Ramen is perfection. Egg noodles are the perfect texture and the tonkotsu broth is so good! I added a heap of garlic as that's my preference, but you can get garlic on the side. The chashu top is nice and juicy as well. All in all a solid spot.

The nigiri was also very good and probably the highlight of the meal overall. My son ordered the ramen and really enjoyed it. That said, the rest of the sushi rolls were just okay and didn't really stand out. They weren't bad, but nothing that would make us go out of our way to order them again. Unfortunately, the service was disappointing. When we were first seated, my husband asked if we could switch to another available table. It was a simple request, but the server seemed visibly unhappy about it. From that point on, we felt like we received a noticeably colder attitude for the rest of the meal, which took away from the overall experience. The food has its bright spots, especially the nigiri and Hokkaido Roll, but better hospitality would have made a big difference.
