Orochon Ramen: Authentic Japanese Cuisine in Los Angeles

Amazing food as always they never disappoint , I been coming since I was living in the OC with family and now I get to bring my husband here.

I got the miso base ramen and it's delicious. The broth is definitely fatty if you're into that. The serving size is huge!! I can never finish my bowl lol. I really like the noodles with serve here, kinda thick. The edmame is so delicious here!! I've tried other ramen restaurants but they don't make it how they do here. The staff was really nice I always appreciate them checking up on us

I've been wanting to try this place since 2009. This place is legend to me. Before social media marketing, this place had huge hype in LA after the Man vs Food episode. All my high school friends at the time were talking about the Special 2 challenge. I finally got to satisfy my craving. Highly recommend everyone in LA to try this place at least once. Even though the show/episode is "old" now, I believe to this day, the Special #2 is an iconic menu item that you can only find here. Although I didn't try the special 2, I can imagine it to be very spicy. I was satisfied with the medium. I was a battling a sore throat, and the ramen broth did wonders!

I came here with friends in order to see them do the SP2 challenge. I got the impact spicy miso ramen with chasu and egg, but I do believe I could've gone one higher but that's just one. The ramen was very tasty and the soup was great! The challenger on my table on the other hand had a lot on their table, going through the noodles and toppings was very easy, but the most difficult part was the soup. In the end they weren't able to finish, but that's okay. The staff was really nice about it and they do validation for parking as well. I really liked that we could sit on the outside so we could let us take in the outdoor chill for the spicy ramen!
