My recent visit to Ramen Zuru in Artesia was not as impressive as I had expected, despite the high ratings I had seen. The restaurant was clean and the service was good, but the overall dining experience fell short of my expectations. The small size of the restaurant created a crowded and cramped atmosphere, which may not be ideal for those looking for a more intimate setting. The ramen was decent, but it didn't quite meet the level of excellence I had anticipated. The broth lacked depth and complexity, and the noodles were average. The Chicken Karaage was disappointingly bland and lacked flavor. The Gyoza dumplings were cooked well but lacked standout flavor, and the takoyaki was just okay....
Tiny place with giant flavors. Long story short, go here because it is good all around. We had the veggie and green curry ramen with the chicken gyoza to start. The gyoza was okay. I had the green curry ramen. At first, I was a bit skeptical as I just tasted the heat after starting to mix the ingredients. Getting more into the bowl it turned into flavor party. The curry really started to come through, intertwined with the rich pork broth. The cuts of pork were thick, buttery, and delicious. I could not stop eating this amazing bowl. Best bowl of ramen I have had in the area in recent memory. Coming back soon.
So this place is easy to miss but you should make the effort to find it if you’re in the mood for Ramen. When we entered it wasn’t very packed like most places in Little Tokyo if you’re familiar with those crowds. Everyone greats you, hostess’ are friendly and you are initially served a pitcher of water. I got the Tonkotsu Ramen, which has the MOST TENDER PORK I’ve ever had in Ramen, so delicious on its own. Definitely a 10/10. We also had the Nachos and you definitely want to have them. I could of had those alone as they are very shareable sized nachos.
It's been a few years since our last visit and boy did I miss this ramen spot!!! We were warmly greeted by the servers. After a brief wait, my family and I ordered our respective dinners. My youngest and I ordered the Tonkotsu Ramen while my oldest son ordered the Chashu Rice Bowl. Can I tell you how delicious that pork belly (Chashu) was? How well cooked but soft it was *chef's kiss* The pickled egg was superb

Absolutely delightful! I adore the flavors and generous portions. The kids' ramen is sufficiently large for an adult. The total bill for 3 meals and 2 drinks came to $65 and was well worth it. Hoping to return again soon.
Best new ramen place ive been to in a while. Fresh ingredients and awesome selection. Exactly what you want in tonkotsu and sides. Will come back again and again. Really fast service too!
This is the best restaurant we have discovered in Southern California. The staff is friendly and the food is outstanding!
