    I drove 20 mins to try this place and was turned away at 11:12. The listing says last seating at 11:30pm. They should update the hours to reflect that so that customers don't waste their time!

    They're open late! Thank goodness for late night joints. A long day at work equals trying to find dinner with a hope and a smile! We've ordered delivery in the past. This was our first dine-in experience. We weren't the only ones eating a late dinner! We ordered to share: Chicken nanban. They serve it with a tartar sauce of sorts. The flavor is ok but they are a bit heavy handed. Gyoza. Also ok. Also served with the tartar sauce. Also a bit heavy-handed. Next time I will request the Tatar sauce on the side. Spicy miso ramen. We enjoyed it. It was a rainy night and the broth was warm and flavorful. Enjoy!

    Spicy Miso Ramen
    Matt O.

    We came through on a Tuesday. It was very empty only a few people throughout. I got the spicy miso ramen level 1 (was just mild) the charsiu was very tender. The karaage with the curry sauce was awesome! I would love to try to make that myself one day. The special ramen which they serve only 5 per day was very veggie heavy. Personally I wouldn't have gotten it again. But it is very filling so to each their own. The restaurant was small maybe around 25-30 people seating. The service was very good. The waitress was attentive and checked in a lot. I do think we got overcharged since before a certain time it's a free side if you order 2 ramens. But I guess it'll just take a little more time to come back

    Japanese Curry Rice with Chicken

    I usually order their noodles, but this time I decided to try their Japanese curry. The flavor was good but there was hardly any chicken in it. It was no better than what I can get from a microwaveable instant curry packet at the supermarket. I've voiced my opinion with the server and I will try it again in the future to see if any improvements are made.

    This place is small You write your name on a list and as people leave they come out check the list and call for you to come in to eat. When we showed up it was full so we waited maybe 20minutes. Service once inside was fast they don't have too big of a menu. Ramen was delicious we added corn aand an egg to the spicy one. Shrimp tempura was perfect The shu mai was interesting, had maybe some rice inside and was sweet which was new to me. I normally love a shrimp shumai. karaage was good pieces were big and not fully coated in the crumbs. Also not picture fried rice it was good. Would definitely come back for the ramen

    This was my first time stopping by and luckily I got there early for dinner to try their limited Tomizo Ramen for $15! It's a garlic shoyu tonkotsu base topped with bean sprouts, cabbage, onions and LOTS of garlic which I loved! It's served with a thick flat noodle, and you can add more toppings like a ramen egg if you like. The broth was SO flavorful and it definitely hit the spot on a cold night. The combination of a shoyu and tonkotsu broth makes it umami rich and delicious. Every bite was packed with flavor and a strong taste of garlic which I loved. I wasn't the biggest fan of the noodles since it reminded more of a pasta noodle, but they were still thick and had a great texture. The other ramens on their menu either have a miso or shoyu base, so I'll check it out next time. Definitely recommend stopping by to try this ramen.

    The place was cute and clean. They have friendly & welcoming servers. The food are just okay but the egg was so perfectly good!

    I have eaten here several times and enjoy their ramen. The spicy miso and miso broth, which is their signature ramen broth, are good. Their tonkatsu soup is okay. In general, their soup is on the lighter side, but still has enough bold flavors to make the overall dish tasty.

    Food (5/5): Want ramen but don't live in Little Tokyo? Tomizo ramen is perfect for you. I have only had their Tomizo ramen which they only serve 5 bowls a day. It's super garlicky and a tad bitter from their cabbage. The soup is such a comforting and earthy flavor. The portion size is also gargantuan considering I'm a big eater. I love tsukemen and unfortunately my favorite place in Gardena closed and I'm super excited to try it! Service (5/5): Their food is quick and they are very attentive. I have only been when it hasn't been super busy. Ambiance (5/5): Great for a quick solo bite, to go with a friend, or casual date! Any party bigger than 4 will have issues fitting unless the 5th person is an infant. Price (5/5): Debit & credit card only, FYI! Reasonable prices for great ramen!

    Dipping Ramen (Tsukemen)
    Shauna S.

    Came here for a late Thursday dinner around 9pm and was a little surprised there was a 15-20 minute wait. The seating is pretty limited, so plan ahead if you're coming during peak times. As a tsukemen lover, I had to try their Dipping Ramen. It was solid, but my heart still belongs to other local ramen spots. The broth here was rich and the noodles were deliciously chewy, but it just didn't quite hit the craving for me. My boyfriend ordered the Tomizo Ramen, which is limited to 3 bowls a day. The menu notes it has "a lot of garlic," but that was an understatement. We're talkin' spoonfuls. It overwhelmed the entire dish and made it tough to enjoy. Those who are garlic-obsessed could possibly enjoy it, but it was too much for us. Have to give them bonus points for the Dodger-themed decor. It added a fun, laid-back vibe that made the space feel social and casual.

    First time trying Tomizo and glad we got there early to get a seat because it's not a big restaurant. We ordered their shrimp shumai, chicken karaage and two ramens. The ramens had a unique flavor. I think the broth had a fisher, more seafoody bonito flavor? It was good and their Noodles were really good. Everything was pretty decent.

    This place doesn't disappoint Food it's good. The Ramen it's 10/10 love it! Tonight got the Oolong tea and The Spicy Miso Ramen. Service was fast and friendly. Ego was my server and he was so attentive. Definitely will be coming back! And the fact that they closed at 1am

    Miso Butter Corn Scallop Ramen
    Kimberly P.

    Came here late night on a Friday and it truly is a hole-in-the-wall gem! My sister and I signed up for the waitlist and waited approximately 20-30 minutes to be seated since it's very small inside with limited seating. However, once we got inside, the service was very quick. We got our ramen within 5-10 minutes and it was so delicious! I ordered the scallop miso butter ramen and wow. It was amazingly fragrant and creamy and salty in the best way possible. The corn adds a nice sweetness to balance out all the flavors. The ramen is perfectly chewy and the broth is like a warm hug on a late night. I loved that they gave me a good amount of scallops too and for the price, it was such a deal! Will definitely be returning to try their other ramens as well.

We also picked it because the vibe and the interior looked really cool. It's a little weird because I think it's almost like self seating? But you still get service. The people there are super nice! I asked for a recommendation and I know it's always a gamble since people have different preferences, which the guy did caveat, but I followed what he said he usually eats on his break and I'm so glad I did! I like that the menu tells you the soup, sauce, and toppings for each item. It's wonderfully detailed. Tonkotsu miso: 9.5/10. Absolutely delicious. I think my only small thing is that my friend got certain toppings in his tonkotsu shoyu that I would've also liked in mine, but that's all. The broth was rich without being too heavy, thanks to the miso. On the flip side, the tonkotsu didn't overpower the miso. It was a good blend of both broths. The noodles are a bit thicker here - maybe medium - and it worked really well! Good texture and good level of doneness UFO dumplings: 8/10. The UFO dumplings were curved which is cool and slightly different from the versions I usually see at a Chinese restaurant. It's cute. At first bite, I was genuinely pleasantly surprised with how much flavor the skirt had. Dumplings were super moist. Not the most flavorful dumpling I've ever had, but pretty high up there.

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.

    Full transparency, I came here with my wife because she had a Yelp elite event for this restaurant…read more The restaurant is pretty small, it doesn't sit too many. We sat at the bar where they serve you through a window which gave me Japan vibes. Place is very clean, extremely well designed and great vibes. The service was really nice, fast to serve you and food was served quickly. if you don't get seated right away you get a beeper so you can walk around the Enclave. Now about the food. This isn't your typical "ramen". I feel like this is very elevated take ok the traditional ramen, cleaner and healthier. I had the tonkatsu, my wife has the shoyu and we got the crispy tuna for free but bought the Karaage. The ramen broth is light, still flavorful but not as salty. The noodles was thick, almost like Chinese style noodles. They did mention there was a thinner one but forgot to offer it to us which is fine. Chashu was very good. The tuna crisp is great as well. The karaage was slightly salty. Overall very interesting ramen spot compared to the rest around Torrance.

    Its not easy giving all full 5 star review. I looove this spot. Not a conventional Izakaya, they…read moredont have many small side dishes, but thats not why I come here. I come here for the Yakitori. Errmugurrd hands down my fav dedicated yakitori place. The charcoal grilled sweetness smacks you in the face as soon as you walk in. If its your first time, its like sushi for chicken grilled skewers. The best parts are the unconventional chicken parts you dont usually eat. Chicken, heart, liver, gizzards, all of that so good. Dont forget the chicken meatballs, and some pork belly omgaawd. I prefer this place over newer trendier spots, ha smore character i guess. Service has always been good. Usually plenty of parking.

    The hearts are super tender! Order:…read moreHearts Liver Special shiro (special pork intestines, really good if you like intestines!)

    I want to add another review for their lunch hour and share some menu pictures…read more My mom got the teriyaki steak beef plate I got the Katsudon and both were hits as usual.. friendly staff as always and not too crazy busy

    Azuma's menu is incredibly extensive, offering just about every type of Japanese comfort food you…read morecan think of. From sashimi, yakitori, udon, donburi, and so much more. With so many options, it was honestly a little overwhelming to choose. I decided to keep things simple and ordered the sashimi and broiled mackerel fish set, which came with rice, miso soup, cabbage salad, and macaroni salad. My husband couldn't settle on just one dish, so he went all out with a chicken oyakodon, grilled salmon, steamed eggplant, and a stir-fried chicken and bean sprout dish. The restaurant itself is narrow and deep, which actually reminded me of some of the small alleyway restaurants we visited during our travels in Japan. It added to the cozy and authentic feel. The service was attentive, especially when we requested a few extra items. One thing that really stood out was their ponzu sauce. It seemed to include green onions and perhaps a touch of vinegar, and it was absolutely delicious. It paired perfectly with the sashimi, steamed eggplant, and even the chicken dishes. Next time, I'm definitely going to spend some time studying the menu beforehand. The portions were generous enough that we had leftovers for another meal, and we were lucky enough to find parking right in front of the restaurant.
