Master Critic Review

Shin-Sen-Gumi Yakitori Izakaya 8.1
Sawtelle Japantown
A long-running Hakata-style ramen shop where you customize firmness, richness, and toppings before the first slurp. The tonkotsu broth is creamy without getting heavy, and the thin noodles hit that classic Fukuoka bite. It’s a reliable, no-fuss ramen night anchor for Sawtelle.
Must-Try Dishes: Hakata Tonkotsu Ramen, Spicy Miso Ramen, Gyoza
Scores:
Value: 8.4 Service: 8 Consistency: 8.7 Food Quality: 8.6 Atmosphere: 7.2 Cultural Relevance: 8.3
What makes it special: Hakata ramen customization down to noodle firmness and broth richness.
Who should go: Anyone who likes dialing in their bowl.
When to visit: Late evening for a steady, fast-moving line.
What to order: Hakata tonkotsu, add ajitama, gyoza.
Insider tip: Order extra kaedama (noodles) if you’re hungry.
