Daikokuya

The ramen shop that helped define the modern ramen experience in Los Angeles, Daikokuya has been drawing long lines at its Little Tokyo original since 2002 and remains a pillar of the neighborhood. The signature Daikoku Ramen features a rich tonkotsu pork bone broth with thick noodles, chashu pork, a soft egg, and bamboo shoots, customizable with additions like nori and extra kotteri flavor concentrate. The cozy, wood-paneled dining room fills with both longtime regulars and first-timers every service. Order the Daikoku Ramen with extra chashu and the ajitama soft egg.
