Killer Noodle
Specializes in tan tan ramen with customizable spice levels.
Notable Picks
8.2
A Sawtelle spinoff focused on tan tan ramen that leans spicy, nutty, and sesame-forward. The menu is tight and heat-levels are serious, but the broth stays balanced and creamy under the chili punch. Ideal when you want ramen that’s more Sichuan-adjacent than tonkotsu-traditional.
