I was hungry after being onsite for a client and passed by this food truck a month ago. I ordered the Chashu bowl and it totally hit the spot! The rice had soaked up some of the juices from the pork. It came with a soy egg, potato salad, carrot salad, tons of green onions and a mayo & chili packet. The portion was generous - enough for dinner and lunch. I'd come here again for it! read more

Tasty birria tacos! The meat is extremely tender and they do not skimp. Their ramen is pretty good and popular among the locals. The food truck is parked in front of the Toyota dealership on Western Avenue in Gardena. Give it a try if you're in the neighborhood. read more

My girlfriend and I were hungry after drinking all night at our friends surprise engagement rooftop party. She's always down for some late night tacos but I randomly came across this place since it was the closest to where we were. I was actually very surprised by this place since it had ramen AND tacos at the same time. I've never been to japan before but it definitely reminds me of those Yatai where they have seats around to eat at but this is a food truck instead. I ordered the #2 Tonkotsu with Black Sesame Oil. The soup was super fatty and it came with a lot of noodles. I loved all of the wood ear mushrooms it came with (I think?) THE MEAT WAS SO TENDER. They gave you 3 nice slices. I gave a piece to my gf and she was so amazed LOL. I WAS even thoroughly surprised. I wonder if they sous vide the meat. They also made their own chili sauce that had some chipotle in it which was fantastic. She had two al pastor tacos which were also SUPER GOOD. You know it's going to be a great taco when you get the sauce in a little tied up baggy and you have to bite the tip of it. All of it was $18 and we tipped some more on top. We waited a little while but only because it was super busy so it's understandable but the workers were all super nice and banged out all of the big orders pretty fast for only 2 people at 130am. Yelp says it closes at 2 but I did see them take an order after 2am. If I'm ever in the area again I would definitely come back. Although my gf still woke up with a hangover haha! read more

My wife and I enjoy ramen and have passed by this truck multiple times on our daily walk. Today we decided to give it a try, we both got the #3 (tonkatsu with black garlic). It was delicious and we will be back. Why was it good? First we got a good amount of pork, more than most other places. We also a whole soft boiled egg were most places give you a half. The broth was also very nice! read more

Ramen Ibarra - Tonkatsu with black garlic broth (so good) - Food Trucks Near Me - Gardena, California

This food truck is located and parked in front of the Toyota dealership off Western in Gardena. I always drive by this all the time and always wanted to try it. I was craving some ramen but didn't want to go to a ramen place so on my way home I drove by this truck and decided to try it finally. I got the #1 Tonkotsu shio rich pork broth which I believe was the basic one. Also looked like they raised up their prices a dollar on almost everything on the menu. Overall the ramen was good and definitely hit the spot for that late snack craving. I would get this again. read more

I'm very sad after visiting this place last time. I generally love this place and really debated writing this, but I have to be honest. I came here late on a Friday night to grab some food. My go to is usually the ramen as its a good deal and actually tastes pretty close to legit ramen. This time I wanted something different, so i went with a birrria burrito. The burrito is so cheap (I think less than $10), so I was excited to give it a try. I ordered at the truck, waited for around 10 minutes (while looking at all the Toyota cars since its next to a dealership), and got my order. I drove home and was ready to dig in. Took a few bites and it tasted great. Stuffed full of meat, rice, onions, and it comes with salsa. It was all good...until i looked a little closer and found...a piece of hair. I was so sad. It tasted good, it was reasonable, and then I had to throw it away. That being said, I'll continue to come back because I think the ramen is really worth it, but I think ill stay away from the burritos. read more

Ramen Ibarra - Piece of hair in my burrito :( - Food Trucks Near Me - Gardena, California

I really wanted to like this place but unfortunately the food here was lacking in flavor... I've had it a couple of times and it just felt like the ramen here was bland. And the times I've went here they had some items that were not available. Like not having rice available, when I was craving some curry. I like the concept of this place but it just wasn't it there. The staff seemed nice though, but I'm just not sure I'll be coming back. read more

I'm sad to write this. I have been wanting to check this place out for a LONG time, but every time I've tried, they're not there. Finally found them there tonight, and I'm soooo disappointed. Hubby got the number 3, and said it was "fine", and I was very excited to try the birria ramen. It doesn't taste BAD, it just doesn't taste at all! The only flavor is from the cilantro and onion added on top. The broth is bland, and the meat is bland. I added the hot sauce they gave me, and it added heat without adding flavor. I'm a birria fan. I love the consommé that usually comes with it. This was not it. My least favorite thing was that there was more fat and silverskin than meat. Seriously, it was SO FATTY!! Disappointed. read more

Did a phone order and was told food would be ready in 10 minutes. Got there and the food was ready and packed for pick up. Prices are good, portions are great, and food tasted good! They have a little small area to sit by the truck if interested. There's all this parking as well, which is nice. They have late hours which is great! Would recommend to check their Instagram to see if they'll be open the day of. read more

The only reason they're not getting a fifth is their inconsistent hours Their ramen broths are delightful and delicious. The noodles are made to travel, as they come very firm. (Add your broth to the noodles and put in the microwave *on low power* for 5 minutes. Perfect bowl of inexpensive tonkatsu ramen, everytime. Now I haven't seen them, at all. Where'd you go. I miss you so. read more

They keep their prices simple for ramen. $10 literally. Super flavorful for what I was expecting for the price. Definitely can't beat the price, quality, portion and fast customer service. They also have tacos! Haven't tried. Bring cash. @makeMePrettie approved. I'll definitely be adding their food truck to my conversations. read more

First and foremost, go to facebook.com/ramenibarraoriginal and add them as a friend. They got rid of all other accounts and made a new one on Feb 16, 2022 where all of their photos and updates will be posted there. It's the best way to know if they'll be open or not (daily stories are posted). Ramen Ibarra always satisfy my late night cravings. They're pretty affordable. Their ramens are the most expensive on the menu, but it's actually a lot of food. I personally like their Tonkotsu Ramen over Shin-Se-Gumi Hakata Ramens. Their broth is really good and their chashu is great! Speaking of chashu, whenever I'm not craving for ramen, I usually get their Chashu Bowl and a side of gyoza. Their chashu bowl has become my guilty pleasure. One thing to note, their gyoza actually come in 7pcs, not 6pcs as it says on the menu. When I want something COMPLETELY different, I go for their asada burrito. Their burritos are always filling with plenty of rice, beans, and meat - not to mention, it's affordable. Check out this small, family-run, food truck. You won't regret it! read more

Ramen food trucks are an underutilized concept, given ramen stalls were once quite popular in Japan. Ramen Ibarra's one of the few that I'm familiar with. Their late-night convenience, not the taste, is their main draw. First, be sure to check their Instagram (@tonkotsu_ramenibarra). They tend to be closed early in the week, more often than their Yelp hours suggest. Their flagship item is their tonkotsu broth, with a choice of a salt-based or soy sauce-based blend. The soup is quite muddled and bland. It's actually their chicken-based broths that are decent. They also serve a negi (green onions) birria rice bowl. It's a great idea, in my opinion, but the execution is quite poor. You expect the richness that you get from the consomme at a regular birria joint, but the birria bowl here is disappointingly dry and flavorless. Ramen Ibarra is open until 2am. But Shinsengumi-2-Go (10pm), Shinsengumi (11pm), and Ramen Tomizo (12am) are also open quite late, so it's hard to recommend them given the quality of the food. read more

Ramon was delicious and a great price! I would definitely be getting my next order or ramen from here I just wish they were there more often! read more

I'm so lucky when we used to live in Carson I can walk to their regular spot. Now they moved in Gardena which the same city I'm at I have to drive less than a mile, so cool! Let's start off with the cashier not sure if he is the owner but he was polite , good customer service! Food: I was surprised because for the price I am paying the rice bowl is filling! It has 2 small scoops of potato salad , carrots + half egg then the rice and meat of choice I also like the container they are using not the cheap ones guys! Also one thing I dont like is their inconsistent hours but still giving them 5 stars lol! Yes, will keep patronizing this food truck because they rock :) read more

Record to take home than you can heat up as my noodles were a little hard but maybe I should have told him to cook more. Flavor was very hood . I got the Tonkotsu with black garlic . I would go again. read more

I don't really know what to measure this against. This was my first time, my niece recommended because I wanted Ramen Noodles so I went here ordering over the phone the staff member help me make a choice, originally I wanted the vegetable Ramen but they had no vegetable so I took her options which she said was popular among customer....sorry I don't have the name of what I had but it was noodle with chicken I thought it was okay maybe if I had it there maybe instead of getting home and eating it would have been better. I had a side of some kinda of chicken pieces that looked fried now I will say that it was very tasty! Other than that I probably would not do take out and just try it right there because it was a full dinner rush that was eating there. The 4 stars is because of the take home method wasn't so great. read more

I love their miso ramen. I think its pretty decent. My only issue is whenever i got to the Honda spot i always don't see them. But on yelp it always say their there but their not :/ read more

Amazing Ramen!!! Cool spot to go to still open late at night. It's a food ramen taco truck so it's good for On-the-go Quick service and extremely nice service. I always order the spicy miso ramen and i rate it 10/10! They make their own broth and I love how they add big portion green onions (: you can add cheese to your tacos too (: the birria tacos are bomb. Dip it in the spicy miso ramen and it's a delicious combination!!! read more

This place is great don't get me wrong ramen is so good and portions are huge and filling only problem is the schedule , there have been 3 separate occasions I've gone and they aren't there , I try calling ahead of time and they NEVER answer their phone , I even check their Instagram to see if there are any scheduling changes for that day and nothing was updated or posted for the 3 times I've gone , it's kinda disappointing to do the 20 min drive and they're not there , I know with Covid the schedule may have changed but they have not updated anything It would be great if they let their customers know when they're gonna be there read more

They will bring you to Japan on their ramen uh.... Porn fried rice? Good for 2 to 3 servings for 10$,, so afforbs must try 200% recommended, service finesse, ambiance convenient read more

Authentic LA food truck experience! Restaurant quality at affordable food truck price. Thanks for staying open late on XMAS eve.

Wow it was so good!!! Had the Tonknotsu with Black Sesame Oil and Chashu, $10! Side of Gyoza, $5. I waited like 5 ish minutes. And from a street truck! I work at night, I'm on my lunch break, took it to go. Ate it in my car 15 min later. Delicious!!! Forgot to take a picture it was so delicious. Shinsemgumi 2 Go closes at about 10, so my area options are fast food or a late sit down somewhere. Will definitely be coming back to try their other items. Red truck, they've got a table with some plastic seats in front if you wanna eat it there. This is my new spot and I don't really know of anywhere without traveling too far to get great ramen off of a truck. CASH ONLY read more

Ramen Ibarra is right in front of the Toyota dealership. A cute food truck dishing out Ramen and whoa, tacos. A chasiu tostada with egg may just be in my future foray. The cold noodle was pretty good. My nephew and his girlfriend, who were drunk as hell, had the hot ramen selections. We haven't tried the Mexican items but they are open late, past midnight. I'd be down to go again. read more

Unfortunately, I took these pictures after mixing. I called to place the order(they were friendly over the phone & in person). The food was done in under of 15 minutes and was excellent. We didnt stay to eat but they do have lots of cute stools to sit on. They also didnt forget to include napkins + utensils. read more

Saw this place while driving by a few times and finally decided to try it and it was bomb . I tied the number 4 and it had a good balance of flavor and spice. The only thing I did't like was this extra sauce they give you. It was super sour so I didn't use it. Also they were out of the curry , so next time I go I hope they have it so I can try it. I would recommend this place if you have late night cravings and want something different read more

Ramen broth is good but we ordered quesa tacos and got regular birria tacos and alot of these places give you the consommé for free with the purchase of the tacos but whatever tacos we're good but they fell apart so quick Might go back idk just being honest not trying to bad mouth this place . read more

Ok... you MUST try this place. The location was perfect for where I was staying close by and there was parking right on the street behind the truck. I called ahead and they answered and told me their hours. I went right over ... and only tried the chicken teriyaki but it was AWESOME. The portion was big, the rice was sticky and good. then they even included some perfectly cooked and seasoned carrots and onions AND this interesting (and very good!) potato salad mix thing... all I know is that this was not only great and fast, but what I got was only $6 in May, 2021!!!!! HELLA GREAT all around. GOOD TIMES, GOOD FIND :) read more

Big menu, the price you see is the price you pay!! Large flavorful portions. Open late! Ramen and Mexican food to satisfy your late night cravings! We got two ramens and one burrito for 26$!! The ramen was flavorful and full of noodles and toppings. When my gf and I sit down at a ramen place we can easily expect to pay close to double what we pay for here. All orders are to go as they are a food truck without seating available but thats alright considering the price! I will definitely come here again and again for my late night cravings! read more

I have always driven by this truck and have wanted to try it! Today was the day! Super bomb food and inexpensive! Spicy mis is the best!

Super small food truck that does a lot of different things. Tried a bunch. The gyoza was good and seemed larger than what you usually get. The $1.50 tacos were well worth the price. Really enjoyed the al pastor and would get it again. The black sesame ramen was nice and hot when we got home, which is always a worry. Let it sit a bit with the noodles to get them all at the right temperature. Definitely will be back. read more

I'm Japanese so I'm pretty picky and know a lot of good ramen spots already so I must admit I havent tried their ramen yet.

I'm going to try the teriyaki burrito next then maybe after that I will actually try their ramen lol. read more
