I can't believe I paid $15 for this. That is more of a reflection on life in 2024 than my shake ramen. Honestly it kinda reminded me of those salads McDonald's used to have. Now the spicy chicken ramen wasn't bad, but it wasn't very spicy and it left me wanting more. It hits like a non alcoholic beer. The staff was nice and hey it's a food truck so for what it is it could be way way worse

Receipt proof

I was overcharged $2 for an egg which was not disclosed to me. No where on the menu was it mentioned that eggs are an extra charge and the only reason I saw this was because of the receipt I asked for. Once I saw the extra charge spoke to the cashier who seemed very hesitant to refund me and continuously asked me if I wanted to egg still after stating I wanted a refund. If an egg is $2 that's okay, what I didn't appreciate is being charged for something that I had no idea was an extra charge. My receipt does not specify this either. On top of that, the food wasn't great and this experience didn't make it better. Take your money elsewhere.

Until yesterday I wasn't familiar with the concept of shake ramen. It is literally what it says it is: ramen in a container that you shake. At first I was worried that the absence of broth would equate to bland flavor and I couldn't have been more wrong. My rainy day lunch was perfectly savory, tasty, filling, and just plain GOOD!! I got the one with pork belly, spinach, cabbage, corn and other yumminess! Every bite was delicious - I will definitely hunt down this food truck in the future!

The concept (shaking up ramen in a cup) sounds absolutely ridonculous...which means I absolutely have to try it at some point. To my surprise the ramen is actually decently good! I'd actually get a whole thing if I found these guys in my neighborhood. It's not going to compete with sit-down ramen shops on quality, but it's good enough and in a cutely portable package. Since we bumped into these guys at a food festival (626 Night Market), we were mostly interested in trying out a sample. Their mini is definitely a good snack (split between two) if you're hoping to avoid a full meal. Their picture is quite accurate to the amount of food to expect. Despite being mostly dry the amount of shoyu flavor they manage to get to cling across everything is surprisingly good. Toppings were pretty fresh, though the spicness seems to mostly be chili flakes (as opposed to paste). Regular garlic had a good dollap of garlic paste to get mixed up. The pork belly option had a reasonably moist and tender piece of chasiu. Noodle texture was good: pretty bouncy and decent chewiness. And of course the novelty of having to shake up your ramen (in a) cup. :)

Ordered from their stand at 626 Mini Night Market in Santa Monica. Was excited to try because I saw lots of posts on Instagram and I love ramen. My order was: Mini ($15) Shoyu ramen, level 2 spice, level 2 garlic, ground beef, bean sprouts, cabbage, & corn. They charge extra for extra sauce, an egg, or extra toppings - which I think is wild because it's already $15. It is NOT soup like normal ramen, it's just noodles (mostly dry) with a tiny bit of sauce. To my disappointment it was COLD. The flavors were good but it was no where near the quality of good ramen you can get in Sawtelle or even at Ramen Nagi in the Century City mall. Is it fun to shake? Yes, but be careful not to pop the lid off! Ultimately I was disappointed because I wanted warm ramen on a cold night but instead I got cold noodles for around $17 with tax.

I tried Shake Ramen @ the Bruery and was surprised how good it was!!! To me, food trucks are hit or miss, so I wasn't too sure how I would feel trying ramen from a food truck. It was very, very tasty!!! The guy working was very friendly. The food came out so fast! I ordered the miso ramen with pork belly, spicy garlic, and spicy level 2! Never had ramen like this before, it was so easy to eat out of a cup! Lol it's like cup of noodles but upgraded to delicious ramen! The flavor was good, texture of noodles was perfect, and pretty affordable for a food truck. I enjoyed my food very much & would order again.

My employers hired the truck for lunch. The staff was friendly and the cup really hit the spot in a cold control room. I loved how garlicy it was. Not sure if I'd go out of my way to order this if I was paying though. Maybe if it had broth too.

Signature Shoyu ⋅ 626 Night Market - Arcadia, California
Justin L.

** Based in Hawthorne, but they do many events around LA, OC, and NorCal. My experience was at the 626 Night Market. On paper, the concept sounds pretty cool. Think Cup Noodles... but instead of styrofoam packing, replace it with one of those fat cups from Honey Boba (RIP). Upgrade the quality of the noodles, ditch the seasoning packet, and add real ingredients you'll find in a regular bowl of ramen. Then shake! But the execution wasn't the tastiest, it's like a brothless noodle salad that doesn't leave you satisfied. Very little noodles, too much spinach. Soft boiled egg was probably left in the pot a little too long. Pork belly flavor was disappointing. While I would've loved something more soupy rather than saucy, I do understand they're trying to do a modern twist on abura soba. And it was also a hot day out, so I was okay with it. The cup is very customizable, you can choose from a variety of options to match your taste preferences. They have two main sauces (shoyu or miso), and spicy garlic (adjustable depending on your tolerance). Main proteins include pork belly, ground beef, and tofu. To top it off, you can add bean sprouts, spinach, cabbage, corn, green onion, an egg, and extra noodles. They are very active on Instagram, I would follow @shakeramen to find out where they show up next! Also available on Uber Eats, Postmates, DoorDash, and Grubhub. Worth trying for the novelty, but wasn't enticing enough for another visit.

Working late sometimes requires a decent place that still opens and operate for folks who often…read morework late shifts or just staying later to beat the traffic going home. Sounds dreadful, but sometimes, that opens opportunity for exploring around the local eats. One of them is this local ramen shop, Blossom Ramen, that happens to be tucked inside the nice small El Segundo villages/shops in this quiet neighborhood. At night time, there are plenty of parking. This Ramen Shop closes pretty late (~11pm) while other local shops are already closed. Thus, parking is pretty open. I can't say the same during the morning or dayshift. At night time, you can see through the open window layout of the Ramen Shop and actually see if it is packed or not. Roughly 6 tables seating up to 2, as well as 7/8 tables seating up to 4. The register and reception area is right up front immediately when you walk through the glass door. The Menu is displayed up on the LCD screen as well as the laminated doubled-side sheets. Plenty of various types of Ramen to choose from. Order is taken and paid up front. Once ordered, along with your drinks, the waiter will bring the order to you directly so you can enjoy it. The interior decor of the Ramen Shop speaks volume to the "Blossom" that is in the name. The designer must really and truly like Cherry Blossom to decorate the interior as such. Wallpaper in cute anime/cartoonish form is seen throughout. I ordered the "Red Ramen" and when it came out, it was probably the most delicious and flavorful Ramen I've had. It wasn't a Tonkatsu nor Miso based soup, but more of a curry flavor based. The noodles was very delicate and very aldente! I had also ordered a pint of Sapporo to go with it and it tasted so amazing when parred together. I'm recommending this shop for late night eats or just whenever you feel like it or feel like eating Ramen. I'll have to try the other soup base the next time I'm around here.

Came on a Tuesday afternoon (I had no business trying to eat a whole bowl of ramen at that time but…read morethat's not the story) Ordered the spicy miso ramen, think the spice level could be more, wonder if they could offer a chili bomb or something other than the chili flakes on the table. I think I need to come back in the evening when I can finish the portions properly however I did feel sad not finishing it so I like to think I enjoyed what I had. It's an ordered then sit down establishment. Graphic and visual art work. My partner lives in the area so I look forward to coming back during fall and winter :)

My family and I love to frequent here because we know what to expect. I will say on my latest visit, the ambiance was not it. Why? Well, because while everything else was on par, the music selection was highly inappropriate for a restaurant. Tupac's unedited Hit 'em Up was playing loud as we sat and ate, i had my kids with me. Look, I'm by no means a snowflake and hyper-sensitive to profanity-laced music, but this was completely unexpected at a family-friendly restaurant. I still plan to eat here in the future, but I just wasn't feeling the vibes during the last visit.
