Yushoken Izakaya & Ramen - Irvine - Photo album
Gave it 4 stars since there is no ramen house in the immediate vicinity and having an option is good. However, the soup was not very deep in taste and the noodles didn't have the right texture. The visuals were good and the atmosphere was fine.
Pleasantly surprised with the ramen here. Their tonkotsu shoyu broth is very weak on account of having a LOT of shoyu in it(I mean, it's very clearly brown instead of the typical milky-white), so I would get the shio base instead. Noodles were alright, chashu was nice and tender, and the standard bo
Great ramen place. I wanted to come a while ago but it was always so busy during lunchtime. Ended up coming at around 230pm when it wasn't too bad. I ordered the shio tonkatsu ramen and it was quite delicious. It came with a bonus bowl of rice (not in the picture) that u can get for free from 11am t
Very delicious ramen at a good price compared to other ramen. Ramen noodles are made from scratch. Soup base is very authentic.
Fast seating, waiters were attentive and food was delicious! We ordered the Spicy Miso Ramen and the Miso Ramen.
Casual easy atmosphere. Great pork broth in tonkotsu ramen, side hot spice bomb was nice compliment to taste, nice texture in noodles. Curry chicken dish very tasty too and excellent texture on breading, great portion too. Great over the top friendly service!
I had the Spicy Miso Ramen and it was quite good. It was sincerely spicy, the broth was authentic, and the pork belly was flavorful. I would say it is well priced for being at UTC, a notoriously expensive place to eat. It may be challenging to select a bowl if you do not eat pork.
I am SO glad I decided to give this place a try because I absolutely loved it!
My friends and I are on a quest to find the BEST ramen shop in Orange County and Yushoken was next on our bucket list.

Came in here on a Friday night and there was a decent amount of people here, about 70% full.
While it seems like they're struggling a bit in terms of wait time to clear tables, their staff still have great smiles and are helpful as much as they can.
Pleasantly, the wait time did not happen for the
Yushoken Izakaya & Ramen dethroned Fukada 2 Go and Honda-ya Box to win my friends' CFG choice award. CFG means cheap, fast, and good taste. :-D

This is my favorite place in university center and some of the best local ramen. The wait can be a bit long a peak hours, and the returant atmosphere is nothing special, but the ramen broths and noodles are great!
A busy spot but service was fast and friendly. Awesome ramen. The broth really delivered on its promise. I recommend trying it out.
