The restaurant is nice and clean, and the service was good. I ordered the Quartz, which was a creamy ramen with chicken. I loved the broth and the thick noodles. So yummy! I didn't finish my bowl, but I was happy to have leftovers for later. We also ordered the chicken karaage appetizer, but it wasn't good. I wouldn't recommend ordering it. Note that this restaurant doesn't validate for parking! read more

The food was good on a cold and windy day, but the wait outside wasn't. I found the girls to be a little scattered in determining seating, because it was a busy day based on the Final Fantasy Exhibition going on at the Anaheim Convention Center. I must have waited for almost 45 minutes outside and was called via a phone call that a table for myself became available. There are two different types of soups available for vegans, and I opted for the creamy soup. The price plus tip was pretty reasonable, and I loved the noodles. The food overall was very good, but the process to get there was very time consuming and I felt I was treated like a number. The girls never smiled and seemed stressed. Maybe it was a bad day to eat there, but my choices were limited after dropping my son off to the Final Fantasy Exhibition across the street (it was lunchtime). I was reading up on the background of the restaurant and it is a franchise, with the owner who started the restaurant originating from Japan. I paid f$4 for parking downstairs, which I noticed had signs offering all day parking for Disneyland patrons. Overall, the food was good, but the waiting was not. read more

Very tasty, highly recommend! Sat immediately and food was served extremely fast, within minutes. Friendly staff! Only critique on the food would be add more noodles to the ramen because it's mostly broth, also the broccoli aren't cut. read more

We stopped in to this place for lunch and didn't know what to expect. The food and service were great! I had a tofu bowl and I love that they had an option for a small and large portion. We didn't want a huge dinner because we were meeting family later for dinner in nearby Downtown Disney. This bowl was fresh and the perfect size! read more

Came with my husband for a dinner while we were visiting Anaheim for his work conference. I was interested because they have vegan options including vegan ramen. I got the creamy "quartz" vegan ramen and ordered extra noodles (because I am a noodle fiend and was extra hungry after a very light lunch). Also got the mushroom vegetarian bao appetizer. Both were very good, and to be honest I probably would have been okay without the extra noodles (but I ate them all anyway, LOL). I would absolutely get the ramen again if I was ever in the area, but it was our last day there, so I didn't get a chance. My husband got some sushi since he'd had a bunch of snacks and stuff from his conference and wasn't as hungry, but he enjoyed the sushi as well. Interior is clean and looks relatively new, and the servers are polite but very minimal on interaction, which could be a plus for you. The decor is pretty standard for a Japanese restaurant, as far as I can tell. The restaurant was moderately full as well, not crowded but definitely not empty. Delicious, and I would certainly come back if I get the chance to do so. read more

Stumbled upon this place, sunday night around 7 pm. Waited about 10-15 minutes for a tabe which went by quick, put your name and nunber on the waitlist and they will call you back. Be patient with them, they don't have a lot of tables and we saw 2 servers but they do move quick, food came quickly too. Staff were polite and patient. Food was priced reasonably and good options as well. Would recommend trying them out, we'll be back. read more

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE RAMEN,,,, I tried the location that they have in Long Beach and it was fantastic so I decided to try this one in Anaheim. The vibe was very cool. It was in midday so I wasn't that busy. However, the service as always was excellent we were greeted when we walked in the door. We were able to choose our area of seating. I ordered my favorite " QUARTZ RAMEN" which is the perfect spicy but if you can't handle the heat‍‍, they got you. You could put it on the side and add it yourself to find that perfect fire blend just for you. I always add "EXTRA"ingredients "vegetables plus an egg (I always indulge in the vegetarian)it. ( vegetables were really fresh and crisp). If you do decide to add chicken, the chicken was phenomenally fresh as well. I recommend this location if you're near here, you can't go wrong. Ramen is good anytime of day or night.‍‍‍‍ read more

​I tried the truffle ramen here. I usually prefer my ramen on the creamier side, and this hit the spot. The restaurant itself is a bit small, but the service was decent and straightforward. Good option if you're in the area and craving a comforting bowl. read more

I ordered the spicy cucumber and the Garnet Miso ramen. The miso soup has a deep, creamy and savory flavor from the vegetable broth and sesame paste combo. It comes with grilled pork, seasoned veggies, green onions, fried onions, a seasoned egg and thick noodles. Perfect comfort food after a long day. Unfortunately, the spicy cucumber missed the mark for me, the spicy miso sauce they used wasn't my favorite. Note: they do no validate parking. read more

The location of this place is ideal especially when you're taking advantage of Downtown Disney for its many stores to just walk around and enjoy the time together.

I was craving for a good bowl of noodle soup after a long weekend at the Disney to recharge my energy and found RAKKAN Ramen nearby my hotel. Located on the top floor of Garden Walk plaza, this restaurant's vibe and layout is simple and minimalist. Service was quick and friendly, the server took good care of our table, she gave us time to decide on our ramen, make sure is there any topping that we would like to add on or remove, check-in to make sure we happy with the food, and refill our water on a timely manner. They simplified their menu so it doesn't have pictures of each dishes on it, just a lot of words and description, as a visual learner I'm a little bit sad but gladly I have Yelp to check out the image lol. We ordered Amber (Shoyu) with thin noodles & Pearl (Salt) with thick noodle. The broth was really really good, each of them have different taste but they all being crafted very carefully and very flavorful. Just like how they advertised on their menu: very "UMAMI" Ramen. I prefer my noodle to be thicker than what Rakkan served but it has the chewy and springy texture that I enjoyed. The toppings: Chashu, Bamboo Shoots, Seaweed, and Ajitama were all good, my favorite is the Ajitama - the yolk was amazing and boiled to perfection, Chashu on the other hand could be a little bit more char. Overall, it was a very solid bowl of noodles and it satisfied my noodle soups craving right on the spot. Truly hope that they will open one in NorCal in the future so I can visit more often and try one of their creamy ramen broth & the karaage. read more

Thanks to its location at Garden Walk, My wife and I stopped at Rakkan Ramen a few weeks back before a show at the House of Blues. I think this place is relatively new and was definitely super clean when we arrived. The staff was very attentive and got us waters, menus, and took our orders as soon as we were ready. The menu had a nice mixture of ramen and sushi and offered a combo that I took advantage of. I ended up ordering the "Ruby" which was packed with shrimp, chicken, and an egg as well as the upgrade for a little bit of sushi on the side, which was the spicy shrimp. The food came out pretty quickly and the ramen was piping hot. I ate the sushi first and have no complaints, it was solid sushi and I enjoyed it. The ramen gets a thumbs up from me as well. The broth had good flavour, the shrimp and chicken were both solid, and even though it wasn't necessarily a dish I'm going to think about again, it left me with no complaints. Overall, Rakkan Ramen was a solid dinner spot and somewhere I wouldn't be opposed to dining at again. It's nice to know there's a solid Ramen spot if I ever crave it on future visits to the House of Blues. read more

Rakkan Ramen of Anaheim GardenWalk located on the 3rd floor (top floor). It seems that they've been here for almost about a year now? But my girlfriend and I use to frequent the one at the Tustin District and one day they weren't there! So it's nice that they opened up a little closer to us! We've been to this location twice now and it provides a pretty casual comfy vibe and upon those times of our visit, not too long of a wait. We were there a little after 6pm on Friday/weekend night but I think customers start to come in around 7pm. Decent amount of seating and customers are fairly quick on eating depending on the party size and not to mention the food wait is not too long. Speaking of, let's talk about ramen! FOOD Spicy Cucumber Honestly can't go wrong with this one. Not crazy-spicy but has a kick and definitely great to pair with your ramen to help reset the taste palate! Chicken Karaage Juicy and delicious! Serving size for the Karaage are fairly large too so nice to have if you're feeling hungry! Goes well sprinkling the lemon wedge! Ruby ramen (Garlic Shrimp Miso) Broth is truly amazing on this one, although this wasn't my order haha this one's my girlfriend's! She absolutely loves this one as she's been ordering it ever since we discovered Rakkan in Tustin! Garnet Ramen (Miso base) Extra Spicy Honestly my go-to and favorite ramen! I've tried it with and without spice but I've always preferred spicy ramen so I highly recommend doing Extra Spicy! The chashu has a smoky taste to it which is delicious and serving size is perfect. I feel th is is a crowd-favorite and one you can't go wrong with! Spicy curry ramen with fresh garlic (LIMITED) This is a limited ramen so I had to give it a try. I'm pretty picky with curry ramen and here's what I have to say about Rakkan's Spicy Curry Ramen. It's good, has the right balance of protein to vegetable ratio but I think there's something missing from the broth itself. I think it could be the garlic chips that may be throwing off my taste buds but other than that, I think it was great! I'll try it again and give an updated feedback but if you're a fan of curry ramen, you should definitely try it out! OVERALL There's been a surge of ramen joints popping up around Orange County and I'd have to say that Rakkan is on my thumbs up list! Every visit is pretty consistent despite the locations and that's important to have. Customer service seems to be on point, servers tend to check up on the customers frequently to ensure everything is fine or if they had any questions. Although there was one point from our last visit (12.27.25) it did take our server some time to bring out the added sides for one of our ramens, usually they would bring the sides along with the entrees so maybe they just forgot? But as mentioned before, the atmosphere is comfy casual and spot-on with cleanliness! Thanks for the delicious dinner Rakkan Ramen! We'll be visiting again real soon! read more

A solid ramen option at GardenWalk and a great break from park food. We came here for a weekend lunch between Disneyland days, and this quiet clean spot did not disappoint. It's a typical-sized ramen shop ran by younger waitresses and kitchen of 3, but their soup bases have some genuinely unique flavors that set them apart. Food came out at a nice pace, with each bowl arriving fresh from the kitchen as it was ready. Pricing feels fair for the area, especially considering the quality and creativity of the dishes. What we tried: * Hotate Hand Roll - Simple, clean, and straightforward. Fresh and exactly what you expect from a classic hand roll. * Small Salmon Poke Bowl - Tossed in a miso dressing with avocado, seaweed, and pickled ginger, making for a fresh, well-balanced bowl. I just wish they offered a mix of different fish instead of only salmon. * Creamy Truffle Ramen - A rich broth with truffle oil, seasoned egg, king oyster mushrooms, broccolini, and corn. I honestly hadn't imagined a meatless ramen could be this satisfying. The flavors were well balanced, and the noodles were cooked just right. * Kids Amber (Soy Sauce) Ramen - The broth leaned on the heavier, more intense side with a sweet finish. The noodles were a bit different, likely to keep them from soaking up too much of that strong broth. * Kids Garnet (Miso) Ramen - Another great choice, with a distinct fermented soybean flavor that really stood out. Overall, this is a spot I'd definitely come back to when I'm craving ramen in the area, especially between park days. read more

Stopped by here the night before a few days in the parks. I loved how quaint, minimalistic, and reminiscent of Japan the space was. Service was quick and efficient. Our waitress was very attentive and made sure we were good at all times. The ramen here is pretty good! I've had better, but I would definitely stop by here if I was in the area and craving ramen. The spicy cucumber was good. It was my first time having this dish, so I can't compare it to other establishments. The sushi flight was solid as well--the fish tasted fresh! I wish there was a bit more variety in the fish, but it's also not a big deal since this isn't a sushi spot. Not pictured is the small Karaage Bowl and small Avocado Tofu Bowl. Both were (yes, small) a good size portion if you're peckish but not too hungry. The distance to nearby hotels is not a bad walk (or short car ride, if you're not into walking) and I imagine many people going to/from Disneyland take a gander at this place. If you are one of those people, stop in! read more

This is located in Anaheim GardenWalk on the 2nd floor. I've never been here so it's a nice place to walk through for lunch or dinner. It's a vegetable based broth which I've never had. They have a few other scattered locations and one in Japan. We tried the Garnet and spicy garnet. I got regular spice in mine. This one's has a miso flavor in it. Honestly surprised because it was really good. If you like just a little bit of spice get the regular. It's the perfect amount for me, I like spice to add a little flavor but I can't handle too much heat. For spicy lovers try the extra spice and add more chili oil. You can also switch if you want pork or chicken. The chashu was ok but I enjoyed how creamy and flavorful the bowl was. I ordered a salmon hand roll because I was really hungry and it said limited special on the menu. Don't waste your money on it. It's a good size but the salmon they used was very pale in color and not fresh. Service was fine, although a little slow. They call you when your table is ready so we walked around while waiting. Overall great option especially for a mixed group with vegetarians. There's something for everybody and still tastes amazing read more

So much food in the large poke bowl. I arrived hungry and definitely left no longer hungry. The service was standard. The vibes were casual. The flavor was solid but not the best poke I have ever had. Wish there were more variety in the toppings. I asked for spice which they brought to the table. read more

I previously have tried this place in a different location and I thought the broth was very salty. I decided to give it a try again at Anaheim and I'm glad I did because my mind was changed. The only downside to this location is parking is not validated so any time you spend over an hour will cost extra unlike the other places in the area. Spicy Quartz Ramen- 4.5/5: I really liked the taste of the broth. It truly is a creamy broth. The only thing I would have preferred is chashu pork rather than chicken. Chicken Karaage- 3/5: This one was okay. The batter was really thick. read more

Really wanted to like this place more, but it was so disappointing I had to give it this honest review. The soup base is decent and flavorful, but all of the other ingredients and components to the ramen taste like they've been made in advance and reheated for the dish. The egg was rubbery instead of soft, the pork chashu was dry and chewy, the noodles felt like they were made and remade, and the portion size was very small. The karrage was fine - pretty overpriced for only a few pieces with a salad on the side. The sushi/nigiri was absolutely atrocious. The pieces were 1.5" squares - how on earth is this one piece of nigiri? The rice wasn't sushi rice and definitely was not seasoned with vinegar and other components - it literally was the regular katsu-bowl-rice that they slapped a tiny piece of salmon on and dropped some scallions before serving. Prices are very high, but it's a hip/active area of Garden Grove. They do not validate parking here. Servers were nice, ambiance is fast/casual. Would not recommend until they fix a ton of things on this menu. read more

Every bite of food was eaten. The ramen with shrimp, chicken and a soft boiled egg has a tasty broth.

It's a bit chunky. The presentation is perfect. Ashley did a wonderful job answering all of my questions relating to my dietary needs. She's very knowledgeable. read more

Grilled pork bowl: Generous size, but surprised by how diced the pork was served. Flavors had a more dashi flavor. Pork gyoza: Very basic and tasted a bit like frozen fried dumplings. Creamy quartz ramen: On the spicy side, it has a nice umami flavor. The broccolini is an interesting choice to add to the ramen and felt out of place. I wished the chashu was a bit more tender. Aburi salmon: seared salmon. Flavors were nice, but it's a very thin piece. read more

My friend chose the restaurant and I was excited good reviews, food options my family would like. All win-win. It all was fine and then the food started to come. I ordered a small tofu avocado bowl. It was more like a kids meal. It was tiny and had way TOO much sea weed. The flavor overpowered everything else. And one my friend's ramen looked delicious, but the pork was overcooked, the eggs weren't good, and the spice level wasn't there. Also trying to get the servers attention I almost needed to stand up in my chair. And to add to the evening when we asked for parking validation she said they don't do that. I wouldn't have had to pay as much if there wasn't such a long wait to get a table and then constantly waiting on the server. Frustrated and hungry not a good combo. read more

Quartz ramen: The broth was milky and had a unique flavor that stood out from other ramen I've tried. The noodles were perfectly chewy, and the chicken meat was sweet, smooth, and very tasty. Service was excellent--the staff was friendly and the food came out quickly. The downside: parking was inconvenient. I had to park for over an hour, and the restaurant does not offer free parking or validation. Despite this, the food and service made the visit worthwhile, and I would recommend Rakkan Ramen to anyone looking for a flavorful and unique ramen experience. read more

No wait for 6:30pm on Sunday (Father's day). We chose this place because we arrived at the Japanese festival too late and all the food stalls closed. Felt too hot to order ramen so I got their poke bowl with salmon. Mildly spicy (I don't tolerate spicy well so it's fine for me). It's not the California poke I'm used to, mixing it felt like bringing disorder and chaos so I ate it like a beef bowl haha. Kids polished off the kid ramen bowl (they typically share at 4yrs and 7yrs) so I couldn't try any, but I found the broth light and delicious. Furikake fries were also pretty good. Would return! read more

Was here for a conference and stopped by for lunch. The Shoyu ramen was one of the best I've had.

Came on a Sunday morning right when they opened so we were the first and only customers at the time. We decided to try the garnet miso and quartz creamy ramen. For the quartz ramen, it came with broccolini, chicken, and egg. The broth was savory and creamy and the chicken was tender and not dry. For the garnet miso, it was rich and savory as well. It came with bean sprouts, pork chashu, and egg. The pork was soft and tender. Chill ambiance due to them playing slow R&B in the background. Friendly and quick service. Price was kinda steep for the portion but good meal. read more
