Decent Ramen/great Service - Edit
Came in on a weekday with no wait. Asked about the most popular items and was walked through the menu.
Read moreI can’t express how wonderful the waitress was. The ramen was really balanced and flavorful with a little bite. My favorite part was the oyster mushrooms.
Pros: Vegan options, Friendly staff , Fast service

You get what they serve you:-) - Edit
Haha. We ordered three menu items and they screwed up two. They are super nice though. Glad this veg ramen place exists. They have low fat, gluten-free and soy-free options. Wish they’d stop offering egg (the only non-vegan item) due to the great cruelty of the egg industry. And you know people in town have vegan eggs for use in ramen dishes (see Shojin, Cross Roads and Ramen Hood). Cute little storefront - ambience is Fast food style w Asian food shows on tv. Fun!
Read morePros: Gluten-free options, Low fat/sugar options
Cons: Serves egg

Decent - Edit
Definitely nothing special unfortunately. Still haven’t had anything even close to Ramen Hood. The noodles were pretty salty. It was distracting at times. The potstickers were definitely the best item I had. It was worth a try, but I probably wouldn’t come back.
Read morePros: Mostly vegan, Great potstickers
Cons: Salty noodles, Serves eggs, Not that great

Great Ramen - Edit
Everyone in my party got a build your own ramen and everyone loved it! The classic broth is so tasty! If you are trying to reduce carbs they offer extra veggies instead of noodles (they also offer gluten free ramen noodles). Everything is vegan unless you add an egg to it. Would highly recommend!
Read morePros: Practically all vegan, Flexible menu, Reasonably priced

mushroom ramen rocks - Edit
I was so blown away by the mushroom ramen and the vegan dumplings at this place. I live about 45 minutes away but I am going to make the drive today again because I can’t stop thinking about how delicious the food is and how wonderful the staff is there.

Clean and healthy food - Edit
As a long time vegetarian I’ve never been drawn to Japanese inspired food. Today I decided to try Gokuku ramen shop. I love the curry ramen. So delicious! I wish I still lived nearby because I would make this a regular stop.

yum - Edit
I love coming to this place. They give generous portion sizes and the customer service is always great. My favorite is the mushroom ramen and I love that they're always very nice about me bringing my own handkerchiefs, utensils, and straws. This place is underrated in my opinion.

Ramen with Chinese taste - Edit
Saw this on happycow and had been wanting to give it a try. Was in the area this week and stopped by with friends. Here's my Gokoku Vegetarian Ramen Shop review. We got a few dishes to share: the Mayu spicy ramen, the curry ramen, and a bibimbap with sauce on the side. The Mayu one had good flavor. The curry ramen was too salty. The bibimbap is served with cold toppings but the sauce is warm and tasted okay though a bit bland. Overall, we all though the meal was okay. I would be curious to try the other dishes from the specials board next time. I would order the Mayu ramen again but not the other two.
Read morePros: comfortable little place
Cons: curry ramen too salty

tasty ramen - Edit
Just went for lunch today with a friend who has gone several times before. She loves them. We each ordered a ramen bowl. I got the mayu garlic jalapeno one. It was very tasty and filling. I liked all the fried garlic and charred peppers. Dirk has gotten the bibimbap bowl to go for me before and I enjoyed that as well. The server was very friendly and attentive and the decor is nice with plenty of single seating at the counter in addition to tables. When we ordered, we were asked if we wanted to add egg, which is the one negative for them. I wish they were all vegan, but I'll be back in any case to try the other dishes.

gets better with each bite - Edit
Cute little ramen place - parking lot on side and street metered parking. Big servings! I had the tantan ramen and at first I was thinking... this is a little bland - but about five bites in it had tons of flavor and was delicious. Love the veggies and toppings it comes with. My bowl was $12.99 I believe. Left FULL! Attentive service. Highly recommend :)

Delicious Ramen in the Valley - Edit
This is a cozy place along Lankershim that has really great vegetarian Japanese food. I want to say authentic besides of course no animal products besides an egg option.
Read moreThey have a variety of types of ramen. I choose the Tan Tan Men and I loved it. The broth was filled with flavor, good amount of noodles, and fresh vegetables. They have rice dishes and sides, but you have to try the ramen.
Check them out.
Pros: Great food, Attentive customer service, All vegetarian; close to all vegan

YESSSSSS!!! VEGAN DELICIOUSNESS!! - Edit
I can't begin to contain my excitement that this is in the valley! Down the street from Universal Studios. It's all vegan, but they do offer the option to add a hard boiled egg which is why the call themselves vegetarian. Other than that...ALL VEGAN! I got the mayu garlic jalapeño ramen (spicy!) and the boyfriend got the bibimbap (also a hint spicy). SO delicious. They just opened....let's support this amazing little restaurant! Being so close to home is dangerous...I will be frequenting them several times a week!!
Read morePros: Food is SO full of flavor and all vegan!!, Super friendly staff, Perfect portions...not too much, not too little
Cons: NONE
