Some of the best ramen i've had in downey! This place is usually always packed because of how amazing their food is! But the wait isn't terrible and once you're seated, the server gets to you quickly. The food comes to your table fast as well! It is always fresh and the portions are good for the price. I love the vibe of the place, it's so L.A. I don't know how else to describe it haha! read more

Ramen made just right. All the ingredients tasted fresh and delicious. When I think of good ramen this place is definitely top 3 in LA for me. Amazing staff, such friendly personal. Great service. The fried rice with tuna is a definite must order appetizer. read more

My boyfriend and I decided to try this spot after hearing great things about it. He really enjoyed his ramen (though I can't recall which one he ordered) and said the gyozas were also good. For me, the experience was more in-between, I didn't love it, but I didn't dislike it either. Since I don't eat meat, it can be tough to find a vegan ramen with rich flavor. That said, this spot offers one of the better vegan ramen options I've had when considering flavor, portion size, and price. We shared the seasoned egg, it was good, but nothing out of the ordinary. The highlight of the meal was definitely the creamy broccolini, which the waiter recommended, it was a 10/10 and absolutely amazing! I also tried the Impossible bun, which was good, but nothing particularly special. Overall, a solid spot, especially if you're looking for vegan ramen. For reference, we went on a Sunday evening, and the photo of my food was taken at 9:25 p.m. By that time, the staff was already cleaning up and putting chairs up to prepare for closing. While we were waiting for our food, other guests were being turned away. read more

Happy to finally have a ramen spot in Downey! We started with the fried gyoza and spicy tuna on crispy rice as appetizers. Both are pretty good! I ordered the Classic and my sister ordered the Blaze. We both were happy with our choices. Our server was very attentive and we had a great service experience. Silverlake Ramen is a great option when I don't want to drive far for ramen. I will be back! read more

Ordered through Postmates and they often don't send the best quality food but it was acceptable until today I was sent an spoiled egg, I paid extra to get another egg added to my ramen to only taste it and it was absolutely sour and disgusting. I have stomach ache as I'm writing this. Postmates didn't refund me and that's ok but I hope the store personnel reads this so they stop sending spoiled food to other customers. read more

First time at this location last night. The food was great! The service was good. The ambiance is modern. It can get loud depending on how many customers. I highly recommend the shoyu ramen with chicken. As for apps, I enjoyed the fried chicken karaage and fried pot stickers. We just walked in, no reservations but keep in my mind places like this do get busy so depending on the time you go you might wait a little. read more

Glad Downey finally got a ramen spot. I've had this ramen before.. and it was good. Wanted to try this location out since it's so close to my house. Ordered the classic ramen. Noodles were overdone and stuck together. Broth was good.My friend ordered the blaze ramen with chicken and a side of shrimp and they gave them two tiny shrimp. In my honest opinion, this place is overrated.. service was slow. I rather travel to nearby cities to get better ramen.. definitely won't be back. read more

Love coming to this location. Food is always hot and delicious. The staff are nice and quick with the service.

The service was very prompt and courteous with the food being a standout. I'm glad that a location next to us that provides the same feel as its original location in Silver Lake. The vibes were immaculate. read more

At first, I was so excited that this location in Downey (previously Sansai Japanese Grill) was taken over by Silverlake Ramen. And then we ate there. It's fine for pick-up. For the most part, the food is good. (Except for the spicy tuna rolls. Don't order them. They look old and taste worse. Not only did our table not finish our order of it, but we noticed the table next to us left there's as well.) We usually order the veggie ramen which is vegan. The service, however, is just basic. We've patronized this place at least 10 times- solely for the ramen and the fact that it is the closest place to our house that has vegan ramen. The servers/hosts barely greet you with anything other than a, "How many?" They never smile. They hand you your menus and ask you if you want something to drink. They rarely refill your water if at all. They do serve you your food (which is the bare minimum you can ask of them), and then they seem to forget about you, until you have to hail them over to pay the check. Then they sometimes will do that awkward thing where they stand over you while you decide how much to tip them. And this last time that we also happened to make an additional to-go order after we were finished with our dine-in meal, we asked 2 times to have chili paste added; and when we got home, there was no chili paste. They had forgotten. And regarding ambiance, I would say it was more welcoming when it was a Sansai. It's not the type of place that makes you want to hang out and order more food and drinks. You're in, and you're out. I would definitely not recommend it for a place to dine-in. And if you do get takeout, double-check your food before you leave. Very disappointing service. read more

The food was not great at this location. The chicken ramen was way too salty and wasn't enjoyable. The spicy tuna bowl was not that great either! The taste of the tuna seemed off and just tasted the spice and not enough flavor, it made me feel queasy when eating this dish which I never felt that way when I eat tuna and I love tuna. Also with the side of kale salad was too overpowering on the bowl. The California roll was good though. Overall this location needs to improve! And the service was great btw. read more

Amazing food amazing service. My go to for when I want ramen. Have brought my friends and they love it too

This was the first time we tried Silverlake Ramen and I must say it was delicious!! I had the kaarage chicken curry bowl, and the others in my party ordered the classic tonkatsu ramen, garlic truffle ramen and the chicken kaarage bowl. All were delicious!!! The place was clean and the servers were very attentive to us! read more

I placed an online order and payed $2.20 to add mushrooms to the ramen. The order was to go, I grabbed my food and went on my way. I noticed they didn't add the mushrooms that I payed for in the order so I called to request a refund. They laughed at my request and put me on hold. No apology no attempt to correct the mistake. Then someone else got on the line took my information down and said that the manager would call me back to issue my refund. I never got a call back, and my bank statement was still charged for service/food I never received. I will not be coming back, the ramen here is not even great I was just sick and needed some broth and they made me feel awful for expecting a $2.20 refund that is my money and idc if it's .25 c if I didn't get it in my order I want my $ back. I'd avoid this entire chain if you can, customer service is awful, food isn't worth it, and they obviously don't value you as a customer. I know it might be a drive but Hiro nori is my usual ramen spot and this experience solidified that I would drive the extra miles and inconvenience myself to get great food and customer service that doesn't make you feel like a nuisance for asking them to correct their mistakes. 0 stars read more

Silverlake Ramen - Make sure your order is correct before leaving or they won't refund or apologize for the inconvenience (just don't buy here actually) - Ramen Near Me - Downey, California

It's pretty average ramen not bad but definitely not the best for the area it's pretty good if your around not really worth the drive. I would say it's just average the noodles are of as good but the broth is a bit better read more

I love silverlake and i was soooo happy downey finally got one!! It was very clean and nice inside and we got welcomed and seated right away. I got my usual pork bowl (generous portion for a regular) and the spicy tuna crispy rice. My mom got the pork bun and she RAVED over it. The sauce was like a savory plum type, hard to describe but unique and delicious. Our food came out fast but no one came back to check on us and offer refills. I flagged someone down for a box and the check which we got quickly. Theyre still new so i understand!! I look forward to coming back - good amount of parking. Love this place! read more

I met family here for lunch. We had the edamame and the classic Tonkotsu Ramen. The food was solid; they tend to use thinner noodles so FYI for those who care about those details. The restaurant offers more food options like rice base dishes but we didn't have a chance to try them. They have a parking lot that they share with a few other restaurants and there was ample parking on a Sunday at 12pm. I will say that though there were only a few of us in the restaurant a more than enough staff, they really only came by to take our order, deliver food, and give the check, so take that for what it is. Overall, I wouldn't mind returning for the food. read more

Had a chance to try out Silverlake Ramen at their Downey location after a grueling soccer tournament for my daughter. Her go to carb of choice is always ramen after a couple of tough games. Silverlake Ramen's ambience was quite nice for a weekend evening, as well as their fast service. The quality of the broth was very savory and it hit the spot! Will definitely come again whenever we're in the area. read more

Silverlake Ramen - A well-deserved Spicy Tonkotsu for my CB! - Ramen Near Me - Downey, California

I tried Silverlake for the first time at the Downey location. I ordered the fried gyozas, crispy chicken, spicy tuna bowl, shoyu ramen, and spicy shoyu ramen. Unfortunately, the food wasn't what I was expecting -- it lacked flavor overall. The staff was attentive, but no one smiled, including the person standing at the door who I believe was the manager. The atmosphere felt rushed rather than welcoming. I will not rerun . If you're looking for flavorful ramen and a better ambiance, I'd recommend checking out Rakkan Ramen instead. read more

Recently opened. We frequented the one in Cerritos and it was a a nice surprise to find this location by work. Food: Great comfort food for me after a stressful and not so pleasant morning. Ambience: Place was clean and easily found unlike some of their other locations. Service: Staff were attentive and pleasant when place wasn't full yet. Took awhile for us to get their attention to get the bill when they faced a lot of patrons. We kept asking for the bill over and over. Other than that, it was a great lunch. Will definitely come back to this location. read more

This was our first time here and honestly, I don't think the food was good enough to come back. The service was terrible. First off, didn't know you could choose your spice levels, that would've been good to know. My gf would've gotten her soup spicer if she had know. And we asked for waters TWICE and got nothing. Our serve looked bothered off the bat and my gf told me I was in my head. But when we asked for a side of spice...she looked at me like I should've know it was on the next table? Weird. Best thing out of this experience was the Star Wars coke can I got with my meal. Was really excited to try and now that I have, I'm disappointed. read more

Super fast today. Order came out immediately. My boy had chicken and I spicy soy. I finished it even if was hot.

Great experience! The service was great and the environment was very pleasant ! Will be coming back again for sure

Im giving this location 4 stars but not for its ramen. I truly enjoy their pork belly bowl , that's what I like and crave . The ramen is good but I've had better . read more

Love the ramen classic soup. Service is good. Ambiance is little bit tight but manageable.

OK so this is my third time coming here and I'm a little surprised that the servers (who are mostly young females ) have absolutely no personality and are not effective communicators, maybe I could chuck this down to the fact that they're 18 - 21 (or something similar) but not once did I get checked up on to ask how my meal was, or if I needed anything, there was also a hair that was on my table and I asked for it to be cleaned up and the server did clean it up but I had to ask for it and she didn't acknowledge or apologize for the fact there was a disgusting hair on my table while I was dining. I literally felt like I was talking to a wall when I asked for something they would bring it out but they would not acknowledge the fact that I asked for it nor did they say anything, i.e. I asked for hot sauce, she brought it to the table, no words spoken. I asked for a Coca-Cola to be brought my table, no words exchanged, I asked for the check - it was brought to my table no words exchanged, I still tipped over 20% even though the service was horrible, I asked for a receipt , again no words were exchanged - no 'thank you' or 'please come back' again. You go here for the food, the service is honestly somewhat miserable, or maybe I just come from a generation where people do exchange pleasantries, whatever it is times are definitely changing. Management definitely needs to have a conversation with their wait staff. read more

Great service, love their ramen! Checked out their Burbank location and now getting to find one closer to where I live is a great find!

The food is spectacular and the service better than other places. The ambience is small but probably in the future they organize more space outside the restaurant read more

Got the Shoyu on Fire, Crispy Rice tuna, and Fried Gyoza. All were delicious. I like to order it to go.. The broth comes on the side so you can put it all together when you get home. The Shoyu on fire was FIRE . I ordered extra hot with extra egg. Serving size was large, always eat over two days. The fried gyoza is sooo good. Even picky eaters would enjoy that. The crispy rice tuna wasn't really my thing but still was addictive. Nice ambiance, modern look, modern music, you can order from self service but I like to pay with cash with the waitresses. The waitresses are all wonderful, you can tell they are just genuinely nice girls. read more

Yesterday 3/14/26 I order the spicy chicken with rice, corn, and Unfortunately, a few hours later I woke up extremely sick with nausea and vomiting. I'm not certain what caused it, but it happened shortly after eating this meal. I wanted to share this feedback so the restaurant can check their food safety and preparation. read more

Very good ramen. Fast and convenient, good menu. The boiled egg that comes in the ramen is not up to par, it's half an egg, and it's too boiled for my liking, I wish they would put a whole soft boiled egg, that would make it 5 stars read more

Silverlake Ramen did not disappoint! The Blaze Ramen was delicious and flavorful, their spicy garlic edamame is by far one of the best I've had and their karaage chicken is a must. If you're around town, don't hesitate to stop. The gentlemen that served us was really polite and helped us make our selection as it was our first time here. The location itself, is nice and provides plenty of parking. The place makes you feel welcomed and has a good vibe to it. read more
