Just a short drive from campus, Sawtelle Boulevard stands as a flavorful hub for all of your ramen desires. Although there are several popular and authentic Asian food restaurants on the block, Tatsu restaurant keeps customers coming back with its authentic ramen dishes and high quality ingredients. Originally born in Japan, founder Ryu Isobe created a restaurant that would bring the authenticity of Japanese ramen to Los Angeles.

Once you make it inside, Tatsu takes your order on wall-mounted iPads. From your choice of several types of warm and rich broths, Tatsu lets you customize your order so you can fill it with as much added vegetable, egg, or garlic love as your heart desires.

While their homemade variety of Homemade Tonkotsu broths would comfort just about anyone, their Naked Ramen will even please the vegans of the group.

The quality of the food is evident in every warm bite. Warm, spicy, and a soft bite of the ramen noodles themselves. So go ahead, order your own bowl and slurp it up.
