I tried the spicy tsukemen last summer, and I remember really enjoying it. Well this time around I got the regular tsukemen and MAN!!! It was soooo good. Everything was perfect. The noodles were cooked to literal perfection, al dente and perfectly bouncy and chewy! The broth was RICH IN FLAVOR. Wow I wouldn't be surprised if they had bones cooking in the broth for 48 hours- it seems like there is some deep deep flavor in there!!! The marinated egg was delicious. The green onions were the perfect touch, as was the lime! Service was good, the waitress helping me was very nice. I went on a weekday at lunchtime and didn't have to wait at all before being seated.

The food was fantastic! I'd definitely go back. The service was great, and the ambiance was nice. The location area was a bit small, though. If you're having intimate conversations, be careful about tables that are too close together. But overall, it's definitely worth visiting for the food.

I visited Fujita LA's Downtown Arts District location yesterday and ordered the chashu ramen. I used to work at the Sawtelle location for almost six years. I grew up in Japan, so I'm extremely passionate about ramen, and I know my review might come off as pretty critical. The ramen's presentation was impressive--very clean and visually appealing. The egg came standard, which looked nice, but honestly, if the price is going to be over twenty dollars, I'd prefer a more affordable option without the egg or extras. When I arrived, there was only one other table occupied, yet it took fifteen minutes for my ramen to come out and eighteen minutes for a simple bowl of steamed rice. I'm not sure if the server or the kitchen forgot part of my order, but the wait felt unusually long for ramen. As for the ramen itself, I felt the quality had dropped compared to before. The broth didn't taste as rich or flavorful as I remembered, and the noodles didn't seem to pair well with the soup. I understand prices have gone up due to inflation, but for over twenty dollars, I think some adjustments might be needed. It's sad to say, but in LA, I feel like it's becoming harder to find Japanese chefs who really know authentic ramen flavors. Without that knowledge, I think it's tough to recreate something close to the real thing. In that sense, I feel like ramen shops are at a turning point right now. While I was tempted to give three stars, I'm giving four because I used to work here and I genuinely want this place to succeed. I hope to see improvements in the future!

Came here late Saturday night after a concert at the Hollywood Palladium absolutely feigning for a nice warm meal. Ordering was quick and our appetizer of edamame came out quick. Though I did enjoy the spice of the spicy garlic soybeans (I used to work in a restaurant that served this), I feel it was a bit overpowering being cooked into the soybeans themselves and would've been better off as a side chili as we weren't able to finish them because it was too uncomfortable. The vegan ramen my girlfriend ordered felt clean while retaining enough heartiness and depth for a meat lover like myself to still enjoy. The chashu ramen was equally impressive and hit all the right notes of flavor. Worth the price point for ramen

I went for the Hololive collab! Service was fine, not exceptional, not bad. Ambience is nice and pretty. Not too rowdy. As for the food, it's just okay. I got a spicy tuna bowl, that was VERY spicy so that's great, but not usually how I've been served it. The ramen is just as good as well. Overall, nothing exceptional but terrible parking. That's all!

Tsujita is spreading, no more excessively long waits in Sawtelle anymore. Usually. For some reason, you wait in line physically rather than write your name down on a list but once you're seated, it's the same concept as any other Tsujita. Get the tsukumen ramen if you've never had it before. It's a savory ramen that you dip into a heavy brothy sauce, goes well with limes too. If you want to be fancy and get chashu, then I hope you enjoy their hefty fat slices of chashu that's about as juicy as... well I dunno, it's good. That's all you need to know. Is it spectacular that you HAVE to eat it when in Little Tokyo/Arts District? Nah, I imagine there're other options out and about but definitely not a bad place to eat at before enjoying the breweries around after.

When I heard Tsujita serves Tsukemen, I definitely had to stop by! This location is pretty small with only a handful of tables but when we arrived for dinner during the week, we were able to be seated immediately. I started with the Spicy Tuna Bowl and this was hefty and full of tuna. It had a really good flavor and had spicy kick to it too! For my main I got the Large Chashu Tsukemen which was a huge portion. The chashu serving was very generous and each piece deliciously tender and soft with an a great flavor. I had never seen lime added with tsukemen and so our waiter instructed me to put some on the noodles prior to dipping. It makes for a interesting bite and ultimately I preferred the noodles without it. But the combination of the broth and noodles are the most important. I definitely enjoyed the broth and felt that it had a fairly strong flavor. But at the same time I've had tsukemen elsewhere where the broth is even richer/deeper and even more flavorful. That being said I think Tsujita is still well worth a stop since Tsukemen is harder to come by and I thoroughly enjoyed it!

I love Tsujita! I've been to the San Gabriel, Pasadena, and Sawtelle locations and this one did not disappoint. I love how consistent the flavor is at Tsujita is among all their locations. I always order the regular Tsukemen and to my surprise, it came with an egg! (Normally it would be extra at the other locations). The server was attentive and food came out pretty fast. I would say it is relatively small inside. Maybe around 10 tables? Luckily there wasn't a wait on Saturday at noon.
