Tips

Where to Sit:
Although it's lucky enough to get any seat, try to avoid the counter right next to the grill--the fumes can get gross and irritating.

The Extras:
On Sundays, the restaurant is open only until their soup is gone, so come early in the day.

The food was good in the past, but I won't be back until they get a better grade.

Daikokuya Restaurant Review:
Little Tokyo's popular Daikokuya occupies the former Ramen Jinya space on Sawtelle. Expect tonkotsu ramen, rice bowls and small Japanese plates. Also located at 327 E. First St., Los Angeles, 90012.

"Warm, bouncy noodles" and "rich", "flavorful broth" "make all the difference" for the "superior ramen" at this affordable chainlet of Japanese "greasy spoons"; there's "minimal service, little capacity and long lines", but "is it worth it? – absolutely."
