Good and service Are awesome. One of the best Ramen places in the valley and nicely priced! Highly recommend! read more

As always, about twice a week or three times a month I come to eat at the restaurant, Nippon ramen. It has not been one of my favorite places to come and enjoy Japanese food, especially the soups and pork squeezers. I have to say that this is the second time that I have come and they have served me a pork that has no consistency. They have lost their consistency. They have lost their flavor. Eight days ago I came here and ordered the same thing and they gave me a dry pork that was poorly served. I returned it and then they heated it up, something that should not be done because the chasú is at served at room temperature. Today I return again and ordered the same thing and it turns out that the pork has no flavor. It is the same. They did not always pay attention to the recommendation that the pork was not at its best, but they continued doing the same thing because it was very sad. read more

My favorite ramen spot in the valley! My go to is always the spicy miso extra spicy and extra ginger on the side. My family and I have been coming here for years. Service is always great. The ladies here are super attentive and there's hardly ever any long waits (unless of course they are super busy) because it's a relatively small area. My go to drink is their iced green tea. They automatically sweeten it so just an fyi. read more

Very traditional, very authentic food. Ambiance is plain yet comfortable. Service was okay, servers were behind a wall gossiping. Had to get up and call one of them to finally order. read more

I should have known to turn around when the place was empty and I wasn't greeted by the lovely older lady screaming CASH ONLY. I shoulda got up and left when I saw we accept all credit cards. I shoulda got up when I saw the prices. I've been visiting this place for over 20 years. It's always been cash only, affordable and quite yummy. I'm going to guess it was sold within the last few years. The food was pretty damn average for the price. I guess I need to head to the other place up reseda to nordhoff. Sorry to see it change hands and change the food. read more

I love this place! It's pretty far from me (I used to live in the area but moved) and I always come here when I am in the area. The food is soooo good and the staff are great! read more

My rating is more of a 4.5. Been in the valley for a few years and this is the first time I tried Ramen Nippon. While most other Ramen establishments serve pork based broth, this place opts for chicken base. Per their website, the flavors are more "classic" and you can definitely taste that when you sip the broth for the first time. I got their eponymously named Ramen Nippon which is a shoyu style ramen, and I was pleasantly surprised. It tasted very good and wasn't heavy. To be honest, I'm kind of disheartened that it took me this long to try this establishment out. The employees were also very nice and accommodating. I'm taking off half a star because I ordered a combo C which includes fried rice and a 4 piece gyoza. Both were decent but they cost an additional $8 along with the Ramen. They were by no means bad, but they weren't "exceptional." I would say if you're feeling hungry and price isn't an issue, definitely get a combo, but just know the sides are not mind blowing. Would I come back? Yes. They have a variety of dishes on the menu, and I would definitely come back to try something different. read more

This is our new favorite ramen spot in the valley! Their ramen is incredibly authentic and they have a great selection with different types of broth. Service has also always been great. read more

My friends, partner, and I have been regulars here for over 10 years. It's a small, simply decorated spot with light jazz playing over the speakers, and the food speaks for itself. We've tried almost everything on the menu, all of them delicious. The broth is made from scratch and the noodles are always perfectly cooked. My favorite during the winter is the spicy miso ramen with extra bok choy and my favorite during the summer is the hiyashi tantanmen with extra broth. The sui gyoza is a go-to for my partner as well as the jajamen and miso ramen. The wait staff were attentive to our table last night as usual and were very appreciative when we congratulated them on the new look to the menu. It's exciting to see this business survive the lockdown and grow. Hoping that they add hot tea to menu but more importantly that it gets the love it deserves! read more

They're the best!!!! My favorite go to ramen place for over 6 years now. Service, crew, quality and food taste, area and cleanliness are 5* for me. read more

My family and I have been looking for a ramen place. We stumbled upon this place and decided to give it a try! NO REGRETS! To begin, the ambiance is so calming, instrumental background music playing which was so soothing. But most of all, the service was top tier. We were welcomed very well and respectfully, in a Japanese traditional way! Our waitresses service and attitude was amazing. Now regarding the food, that was the BEST ramen we have ever had. The broth, portions, flavors, everything was so so good. We ordered the Shuyo Ramen, would totally recommend. We are very happy with the whole experience! We will definitely be going back to this place! read more

Very tasty ramen, large portions, friendly staff. I am definitely recommending this place. read more

We ordered Mabo, Shoyu, Miso and Spicy Miso Ramen with a side of Gyoza. The ramen was good. A really huge bowl for around $15. Mabo was good but not as spicy as I thought it'd be. Spicy miso was very spicy and had a lot of chili flakes and seeds. Shoyu was way too salty, needed vinegar or something to balance it out. The gyoza was pretty meh. Not enough crunch and it didn't have very much flavor by itself. It required soy sauce to go with it. Overall, good ramen with a good portion size. read more

Great place for a variety of ramens in the valley. The staff here is so kind and friendly. They are always smiling and make sure you get everything you need (drinks, napkins, food). Very traditional with their food. They offer 3 different broth options: Shoyu (Soy Sauce), Shio (Salt), and Miso. Their curry is aromatic and comes with a big chicken that can feed two people. read more

The tonkatsu ramen will make you come back for more, even if you don't live nearby which I don't. Enjoy

I love coming here, it makes me feel comfy. The place itself is small, and can get pretty busy. The food and service is great. Their fried rice is really good and so is their spicy chicken ramen. Will always come back! read more

3 soups 60$, , not much meat, not much of anything , i thought it had ti be a mistaka so i politely asked where the chicken was in the ramen, she responded by saying thats their style, my go to for ramen is koppan ramen in encino read more

This was one of our last minute decisions to come as we were looking for a Ramen place. Service was decent and they were nice. Portion sizes are excellent and prices are comparable to other ramen places I believe. Only reason why it got a 4 and not a 5 because I've had some yummier ramens elsewhere (Little Tokyo), but this place is not bad at all. It is still tasty and I would come back here...as Little Tokyo is a bit further. Oh and their portion size of Green Tea ice cream is very generous! Parking lot is small though. read more

The food and service at Ramen Nippon never disappoint! We have had to cut out visits there to special occasions because the prices have really increased over the last few years. read more

One of the old school authentic ramen house that make their stock from scratch. Did you know most ramen houses use readymade packets loaded with msg? Ramen Nippon makes the ramen broth (stick) cooking all the fresh ingredients for hours. They make gyoza dumplings daily from the scratch. I love this place! It's so worth the trip all the way to Reseda. read more

Been going here since they opened. Ordered for take out today, haven't been here in a few years. Tried the Jajamen with combo C. Love Combo C, small fried rice & gyoza. Gyoza was a 10. Jajamen was strongly flavored, half way through I got tired of that taste. I'll be going back to have other dishes. read more

I have been coming to this place for over 30 years! It's been a staple for my family lunches/dinners and I absolutely love this place! They have been around way before the ramen trend started to take off, they are truly the OG! Especially in the west valley. My favorite dishes there are the Tan Tan Men, Hiyashi Ramen with the sesame sauce, Unpairo (cucumber and steam pork), and their C combo which is a half order of fried rice and gyoza. Their flavors and quality have remained consistent and I love love that they provide traditional Japanese Ramen. While other Ramen restaurants only provide the oily Tonkotsu style, this place will give you an array of options. From Shoyu (soy sauce) Shio (salt) and Miso based soups, they are all fantastic! read more

Ramen Nippon - Tan Tan Men - Ramen Near Me - Reseda, California

What a classic! I have been coming to this place for almost 10 years. It may seem like a hole in the wall but the service and comforting food will make you feel right at home. THE FOOD: Is so tasty. This is my go-to ramen spot. I have tried the other things on the menu like the curry, fried rice and potstickers and those are good as well. THE SERVICE: Is wonderful. The waitresses are very friendly and so fast! DRINKS: My friends and I will always get Sapporo and hot sake. The hot sake is a good deal at $5 for a large. It comes with chilled mushrooms. THE ATMOSPHERE: Is pretty humble. It's a nice, chill place to get some ramen and enjoy the company of friends..or just relax with a nice hot bowl of ramen! OVERALL: I would keep coming back. The food and service are excellent. The prices are also very reasonable! This place is CASH ONLY. read more

Best Ramen restaurant in LA. Not sure why it didn't make top 100 ramen places in your rating. Second to none.

The best! Top of our comfort food list. We have been coming to Ramen Nippon since my husband and I were dating. Friday night pick-up after a class! The kids grew up on their food, they all have tried maaaaany other ramen restaurants all over the country, and this is BY FAR top of the list. I love the Hiyashi, chashu ramen, regular and spicy is a fave, wakame is the only one if you have a cold (take-out, please), and, me again - I love the curry! So. Don't pass this up! The staff are all so sweet and friendly. Thanks, all! read more

Pretty good ramen spot! I was randomly craving ramen and wanted to try somewhere new. Found Ramen Nippon on Yelp and placed an order for pickup. I was able to pick up my food fairly quickly. I ordered the healthy ramen, which had Chinese broccoli and chicken in it. It was good, just a touch too salty. read more

My regular go-to place. Nothing fancy or bougie, but extremely consistent, very clean and portions are generous. Service is fast.

Ahh.. this takes me back to the hometown of Japan. The flavors remind me of the just cooked ramen and the soup is just so pleasant. Some might consider it a bit too salty, but for me it's just the perfect amount! If you're nearby, make sure to stop by for a quick bite! read more

I love this place so much! Best service and great prices. Obviously a family business and the ramen is so fresh and delicious. It is a quiet hole in the wall with limited seating but it is so worth it even when there is a wait. read more

My family and I have been enjoying the food here fir over 20 years. We tried other Ramen but always came back here because they were the best. Unfortunately they have changed and not for tge better. Spicy miso Ramen was way too salty and lacked that distinct miso flavor. The noodles were also dry and gummy.I think there may be new owners. So sad they didn't keep the quality of the food the same. read more

Personally, my favorite ramen in the valley. The food is so good and the service has always been amazing. Everything I've had is tasty but I recommend the Ja Ja Men and Miso Ramen as my top favorites! If you're looking for delicious food and a lowkey "mom & pop" environment then you should definitely not miss out on this gem. read more

My local go to place for great Ramen. Been to other places and even spend one summer doing Ramen hunting with family from LA to SF and this place among the the best. Ramen is preferences so there is no Ramen that satisfied everyone so don't give up looking. I know I love Daikokuya and also hakata and not forget chibiscus and slurping Ramen and many other places. Each one is different a d each one has their own specialty. For Nippon try the gomoku Ramen. You won't find it anywhere else. And my dad love their gomoku yakisoba whuch is pan-fried noodle. Come by and give them a try. read more
