    Philadelphia Roll Spicy Tuna Roll
    Leslie S.

    We had an excellent meal. 3 different sushi's.clean restaurant front door opens welcoming you. call button to get your server. We had Philadelphia roll spicy tuna and scallops roll. first time here but will be back

    Unassuming spot at an intersection we all zoom through more than we can count. I'd describe this as easy yet delicious. I went with the Shin ramen which is part pork and part chicken broth. Savory yumminess. The waitress was adorable with a beautiful smile making the place much warmer than I'd expect. Service was QUICK. I'm talking the order was at my table within 5 minutes. Holy moly. Efficiency. With that kind of speed, it'd be a great work lunch spot!

    Tempura

    We had dinner here the other evening. There isn't a lot of parking out front but they have another lot for more parking. The restaurant is quaint but charming. We started with an order of mixed tempura. It was a large portion and so crispy and delicious. A great way to start. We also got some miso soup. The regular miso soup had a lot of scallions in it, which I love. We also got a clam miso soup which had a lot of clams in the shell. For drinks, we ordered a few cocktails. The Japanese Highball and the Lychee Tini were both perfect. They were blended so well and just absolutely smooth. We decided on a sushi roll. We got the James Mulligan which I think light be named after my friends brother. The yellowtail and tuna were so fresh. The bento box was next. We got a half a California roll, tempura, rice, cucumber salad, chicken karaage and salad. The karaage was so good. The outside was crispy and the chicken on the inside was tender and so flavorful. The yuzu wasabi dressing we got for the salad needs to be sold. It was just addicting. Speaking of addicting, the ghost dip ramen is totally addicting. They toast mini marshmallows tableside and add it to the dashi. The caramelized sugar takes the dashi to a whole new level. I am still thinking about that dashi. Incredible service and amazing food will make this your Japanese restaurant of choice when in Hollywood!

    BEST quality sushi in the Hollywood area! So much selection on the menu and the fish quality is insane! I was a sushi chef of 4 years and I'm very picky with where I get sushi. When I found this place, I knew I was going to become a regular.

    Perfect combo!

    Shin Ramen is the BEST Ramen in Los Angeles. Better than anything in Little Tokyo or the Westside. Better than anywhere in NY! And the addition of fabulous sushi make it perfect. Tonkotsu Shoyu with whatever you add is great. Add Zebra garlic and it becomes excellent!

    So many great options

    Hey LA! Looking for a delicious, family-friendly spot in Hollywood? You have to try Hollywood Shin! We kicked off the night with fun drinks, then got to experience their magical ordering cube -- tap the cube from red to green when you're ready, and your server knows it's go-time (the kids thought that was the coolest part!). For dinner, we ordered a little bit of everything: fresh sushi, flavorful curry chicken, comforting ramen, hearty udon, and finished it all off with crispy fried green tea ice cream. Every bite was so good! We absolutely loved our visit and highly recommend bringing your family or meeting up with friends for a fun night out at Hollywood Shin.

    First timer and very impressed with fresh food quality & excellent service from Montana. Has warm low-key personality and very attentive. He's so cute, looks like my college boyfriend! Came for $25 dine LA meal Appetizer: popcorn shrimp w spicy mayo on side Entree: baked salmon caviar roll Both excellent, shrimp very crispy tempura fried and so fresh! Can tell was not frozen shrimp. Trust me, I'm CantonesE Chinese & know my seafood. Ate Caviar on top of roll separately to savor its flavor alone. Fun to eat each tiny round ball w my chopsticks! I will definitely come back during dine LA try diff dishes. And include Shin in my future restaurant rotation. Thanks Montana, so cool his name embroidered on his shirt. And this cool lighted cube for service & paying, never seen before. I wanted to keep tapping service to change light to green, just to see Montana again & again. Just kidding. I'm old enough to be his mom hahaha!

    Delivered chirashi bowl with the wasabi and ginger removed

    I just got delivery from this restaurant. I'm very often get the chirashi bowl when I'm having a tough week. I couldn't order from my usual place, which is next to me and I would ordinarily just pick it up. So I got delivery from this restaurant. The photo shows a very small amount of fish and a very haphazard arrangement. This was not my usual pick me up meal and was certainly not worth the expense.

    This review comes after me deleting a previous review of a bad experience I had with a worker here for overcharging me and trying to steal my change. The owner reached out to me afterwards and wanted to refund and offer a discounted meal/free meal on the house. I accepted and deleted the review thinking he'd make good on his end but after reaching out multiple times recently, I realize the owner is now deliberately ignoring me. Maybe because of how long it's been since the incident, maybe because I deleted the review, maybe because he was lying? Either way, after yet another bad experience I no longer want the free meal but I do still want my refund. So Jimmy when you read this just know I'm coming for just that and I will not be deleting this review.

    the food was really good ! not to spicy and the eggs were soo delicious!! the service was super nice and friendly. The area was nice and clean and very cool on how to request help or when ready to pay. Overall i will definitely go back for some ramen and for a good time.

    Dropped in cuz of the rain and convenience. So wish I'd taken the time to drive to a known quantity ramen place. Good service is only thing keeping me from a one star rating. But awful noodles (can't call them "ramen"), the pork belly was the fattiest I've ever been served, the corn tasted freeze burned and the sushi was truck stop grade at best. Total disappointment when I wasn't even expecting much to begin with. So easy to SOoooooo much better I LA.

    Came here with my friends for a pre going out dinner! I'm telling youuuu YES GIRL! In the middle of everything that's popping. Good parking options and the food baby. They have it all . I had the gyoza veggies (FIRE) the crispy spicy tuna. (FIRE) miso soup (FIRE) just sayin. We had a lot. It was delicious. Thank you shiiiin yall so kind !! We love the Japanese vibe too , period!!

    Food 100/10 Service 100/10 Ambiance 100/10 I have been coming here for years already to the point where I feel like this is home to me already. This is one of the very few places that the food has been so consistently delicious the service has been consistently perfect and the ambiance has been consistently the it place to come have dinner and enjoy every second of it. The owner of this place Tim is a remarkable human being and he definitely knows and has been knowing what to do with this place because from day 1 that I stepped foot here it immediately became one of my favorites until this very day. I swear by shin whoever knows me knows shin is my go to no matter who what where when or how SHIN is it.

Overall the ramen isn't bad, chashu is nice and fatty and tender. Ramen is rich and filling. It's nice that it already comes with an egg too and you don't have to add another one. Lots of other side dishes and combos too if someone in your party doesn't want ramen. However, with the increases in prices, the fact that there's many other options in LT, and the fact that there are other Daikokuya locations, it's an alright LT option.

The chicken was beautifully cooked and very juicy, probably my favourite part of the dish. I'm not sure why they decided to soak all the fried onion pieces in the broth because it was just soggy.

So you can only get tofu or no protein. Even if you select no protein, it comes out to be the same price. Other than the gluten free ramen, we ordered a karage bowl, dry spicy ramen, and spicy tuna roll. The karage bowl had chicken that was NOT fried. I'm not sure how it's cooked but the chicken came out slimy. I was very disappointed as I was looking forward to crunchy karage. The dry ramen had noodles that were way overcooked. The flavoring was okay. Nothing to be impressed about. The spicy tuna roll was probably the best thing there. They had pickled yellow radish that we thought was interesting.

This is actually the second ramen spot I've tried in Little Tokyo, and I'll admit -- I'm starting to feel a little underwhelmed by the neighborhood's ramen scene so far. For a pocket of the city with so much culinary history packed into a few blocks, I expected to be a bit more wowed by now. Two tries in, and I'm still searching for that bowl that stops me in my tracks. What did stand out, though, was the service. The staff at Maruya were genuinely warm and helpful -- attentive without hovering, quick to check in, the kind of hospitality that makes you want to root for the place even when the food doesn't quite deliver. It's the kind of detail that softens an otherwise middling meal. So, Little Tokyo ramen crawl: two down, verdict still out. The people have been great. The noodles? I'm still waiting to be impressed. On to the next bowl.

    There is no better place to get dipping ramen than Tsujita!…read more The one in sawtelle always packed with a wait- this one you could walk right in! Don't bother getting anything else except the chashu tsukemen for food. It's THAT good!!! Also if you want to treat yourself- get the $6 apple juice that's won several awards. Lowkey expensive but you get why when you taste it. Best apple juice I've ever had- and I grew up in the northeast.

    I thought Tsujita Artisan Noodle was really good, though I still don't feel like I've found my…read moreperfect ramen spot yet. I ordered the spicy tonkotsu and loved the flavor, especially the chashu. I'm usually a pork belly person, but the chashu was so flavorful that I genuinely think I'll start choosing it instead from now on. Everything came out piping hot, which normally sounds like a compliment, but it was almost too hot to comfortably eat. Weirdly, we actually enjoyed the leftovers even more reheated at home. I do wish I'd tried the thicker noodles, but paying an extra $3 just to switch noodle styles felt a little ridiculous. We also tried the gyoza, which were good, but I wish they had come with a more traditional soy-based dipping sauce instead of already being dressed in chili oil. I'd definitely come back, especially to try the dipping ramen. I'd never had tsukemen before, and it sounded so good that I was already regretting not ordering it by the end of the meal.
