Hakata Ramen and the Shin Sen Gumi, really got it right. They know that mixing segments of Japanese cuisines is not a good idea. They made a ramen shop, a robata yaki shop and segragated them. The noodles are not clouded by any other thoughts or ideas and the same goes for the Robata yaki. If you've ever been to Japan to a legit noodle house, you know that Hakata Ramen is as close as you will find in the states- ALL of them. Hakata Ramen tastes good, tastes the way it should and this contributes to the greatness of the place. When in Irvine or Gardena, you can't miss this place.
Pros: Noodles, Broth, Service
Cons: Can be Crowded
