I had one of the best Vegan Raman in town. Is not easy to find good vegan Raman usually with no favor veggie broth and left over vegetables… this creamy vegan one has so much favor and you can see they cook the veggie so well. See the photo is already like a bow of art. People super nice here too and the chef is actually Japanese. Very happy

I grabbed the spicy miso ramen and gyoza.
I went with level 3 spice, and honestly, it had a nice kick! But if you’re a real spice-head, you could totally go for a higher level.
The ramen itself had a great, balanced flavor underneath the heat.
The gyoza was also perfectly crispy and super flavorful.
I came by myself, and the atmosphere was really comfortable for solo dining.
Definitely recommend.

As soon as we walked in, it felt like we were transported to Japan just like that. The atmosphere, the friendly staff that shouted “Irrashaimase”, the cleanliness of the bathroom with the typical high tech toilet, it felt nice. We ordered gyoza, gyudon with spicy miso mini ramen, and house ramen with extra spicy (4*). The broth was amazing, although the extra spicy that we ordered and anticipated did not deliver (it was not spicy at all to us.) But the ramen and gyudon itself were fabulous! Then we have yuzu cheesecake as dessert. All in all, it was a wonderful experience and we will be sure to come back next time we’re in the area.

I forgot to take a photo of the ramen before I ate it, but Hinodeya is my favorite ramen restaurant in SF. I felt so happy to see the branch in LA and immediately brought my favorite people. The Creamy vegan dish is super yummy. (Maybe a little too oily?) But the crunchy kale YES! So good. The servers were very kind and patient. Love the vibes and layout.

An authentic and high quality ramen shop. Their specialties are the dashi broth and the spicy miso, and both are amazing and flavorful. I generally prefer thicker, chewy ramen noodles, and this place satisfies that craving. They have good rice and ramen combos too

This place is a gem. I ordered the karaage and house ramen combo, and it was definitely worth it. The karaage was super good—crispy batter on the outside and juicy inside. The house ramen had a nice balance of umami, a little fishy depth, and a rich, beefy broth. I also got the spicy edamame, which was about a 7/10 on the spice scale for me and came in a generous portion.
Service was great too—they checked in on us about 2–3 times, we were seated right away, and the staff was really friendly. Overall, such a solid spot!

Had lunch here on New Year’s Day, including my two kids and my two parents (both 80+ years old). Three of us had severe GI symptoms within 24 hours. My dad had vomiting overnight last night and had to be taken to the ER and was diagnosed with food poisoning. My parents live in a different household, and this is the only meal we’ve had together in over a week.
We’ve been here several times before and have not had any issues. Food and service normally 4-5 stars.
Management should look into food preparation protocols.

It’s not the traditional pork bone broth, the soup base is lighter but still packs tons of flavor. Loved the fact that they include veggies for ur ramen. Also got the sweet spicy fried chicken and gyoza, both v delicious! Our server was friendly and helpful as well. A comforting meal for a rainy day in LA.

You know what Man, Server K at Hinodeya is on another level. The way K takes care of customers honestly feels like fine dining—but we’re eating ramen, which makes it even better. He was super nice, always checking in at the right time, and just made the whole vibe feel special without being too much. service was smooth and thoughtful, and K really gave great attention to every detail, which made the meal even more enjoyable.
I also tried the Spicy Miso Ramen, and it was delicious—rich flavor with the perfect balance of spice. Highly recommend both the food and the excellent service. We’ll definitely be back!
