Kai Ramen Arcadia

This place was amazing. I got the spicy tuna rice and the pork bun.both were good! I ended with the spicy tankatsu ramen and they was amazing.love the broth

The taste of their ramen is average and the ingredients are not fresh. I ate a piece of ramen today. The black fungus was bad and the taste was very bitter. The service attitude of the waiter in the store was not bad (I have kept the invoice and receipt)

The upside: the food is good and tasty.

The downside: the service is as poor as it gets. One of the two main dishes was served with the appetizer. The other main dish got there about ten minutes after the first. That means that the first main dish is cold before you even get to it. And I think it’s not too much to ask to serve both main dishes at the same time.
To cap it off, the second main dish sat ready on the counter for about five minutes because the only waiter was so busy just cashing off other people and seating more that she didn’t even seem to notice it.
Another minor remark: you have really beautiful bowls but serve (at least) your lemonade in plastic cups… maybe something to think about.

This place is nice for a quick bite to eat, but honestly the price didnt match the quality of Ramen I'd expect. Maybe it was just the spicy chicken ramen I got but it tasted very bland. Even a couple teaspoons of salt would have made it taste far better.

Came in at 10 and was turned away because the kitchen was closed. Change your hours of operation then? Says you’re open till 10: 30- waste of time driving here and the last time I got to-go the serving was so small. 1 ladle of broth, eh. Not worth the $18 they charge lol

Just recently I visited this place and it was good! I tried dipping ramen for the first time here and it was really good! Will definitely be back! The staff was also very nice and helpful with everything!

Broth for the White ramen is really good and garlicky. Pork was tender and had just the perfect amount of fat. Fried rice was flavorful and had a lot of meat. Gyoza was freshly made and cooked perfectly. Classic Mazesoba Ramen (No Soup) was also very flavorful and meaty with noodles that were firm and tender at the same time.

Service was fast and efficient, no waiting on a Tuesday early dinner night. Ample parking and the whole place was clean. Excited to go back and try the other food items!

The ramen was delicious and the soup was delicious but there was a bit of a language barrier with service. It was a quiet and calm atmosphere

Terrrible service. Waited more than an 1 hr to be seated, other guests arrived after us and were seated first. At least 4-5 parties were seated in spaces that could have been available (we were able to see the waitlist at the door).
Coincidentally, the tables that later became available for my party were also the same ethnicity as my party and the tables were all the way the back.

We came here on a weekend with a friend. I was so surprised at how good is their ramen! Their broth tastes so rich and flavorful. Chashu pork is super tender and tasty! Freshly made noodles are tender and soft.

We got Kai white, Kai black ramen, and Mazesoba ramen (no soup), for the side we got age dashi tofu and takoyaki, we also got lychee green tea and Thai tea. The food comes out fresh and hot perfect for the weather. Quite busy during the weekend, our server is very friendly and gave us excellent recommendations. The store is very clean. With a nice tradition mixed with holiday decorations. Solid 5 stars, need to come back for another bowl of ramen.

Went in today, was told there are no physical menus.waiter was rude so we left. Went to ramen yakinoya a block away. Much better food and service.

Tried the classic tonkatsu and the white ramen. White is better in my opinion. The chashu bowl is pretty tasty but has some pieces of meat that was pure far. A bit disappointed you only get half an egg and only two pieces of meat in the ramen. Other places give you a whole egg and more meet for a $16 bowl of ramen. I prefer Tatsu ramen over this place though still a good option for the area.

Ordered the Kai White ramen, the broth was rich, flavorful and satisfying. It came with chashu, a soft boiled egg, wood ear mushrooms & green onions. There's a ramen combo w/ a pork chashu bowl, I also ordered some agedashi tofu. Excellent comfort food!

Honestly this is a great spot to get some ramen. The service is so kind as well. Food is delicious and parking is easy to find.

High expectations that never even had the chance to be met! First time visiting this location. I dont often feel the pressures of racial profiling, being a Hispanic in southern California, but i felt the pressure today. We were seated outside while the restaurant was empty. We picked this place from Google, while visiting the area. Long story short, we waited 20 minutes and received no service. So our party of eight decided to get up and level. I do not recommend this restaurant.

No wait at 7p Labor Day!? Thought I shouldn't set foot inside. It wasn't too bad. Menu from QR code, Not exactly my forte. Prices are fair. Competitions around here are pretty tough. Ordered yellow kai, softshell crab, combo chaisui rice, spicy chicken ramen. It was a hot day so may be that effected how I felt about the noodles. It wasn't as hot (temp.wise) as I would expect. The orders were not oily. It was pretty tasty. The fried softshell was very good. Once again it wasn't streaming hot, but it was crunchy. The yellow kai could use a bit more soup and I should have ordered extra noodles. The combo was a very good value. The spicy chicken order was just spicy. Couldn't find other taste in that one. Probably will order that mild next time.

Terrible terrible terrible. Absolutely disgusting ramen place. Best location is in Sherman oaks, not Arcadia. Do not come here.

Although im not too much of a ramen person, their ramen are pretty good.the broth is rich and creamy.the pork is very flavorful, almost got like a nutty taste to it.their dry ramen is okay for me, i really like their curry. (i got the cutlet curry) their chasu bowl is also just alright with me.but i realllllly like their gyoza and takoyaki, great for starting ur stomach up and sharing during a meal.however i reallllllllllly recommend getting the cutlet bun, that has got to be my favorite.the sauce is really good paired with the bun and cutlet.ur hands will get messy though.service is great and food comes at a reasonable time when busy and fast when not.

My daughter and I were in town and went to Google to find a place to have some ramen. Kai Ramen Arcadia was more than we expected. The sweetest lady waited on us and she was just an absolute dream. We have had a lot of ramen and this place was by far the best. The katsu curry with rice was so amazing, I wanted to lick the bowl. My daughter ordered the Kai White ramen and I had the Tonkotsu Classic ramen. We could not decide which was better. The pork was perfect, the egg was so creamy and delicious. We will definitely be back!

One server handling the entire place. Server obviously was overworked.

Not really a knock on him, but management should try to get more help?

Food was average for the selection available in the neighboring area. This was our first time and most likely our last time visiting.
