Mymen Ramen: Reviews & Ratings

Just found our new favorite ramen spot! After driving past this restaurant almost every day, we decided to finally give it a try based on all the good reviews, and OMG we've been missing out! The flavor is as good as everyone is raving about! We both ordered the tonkatsu and LOVED it! I love to eat thick noodles, so I decided to pay the additional $1 for it and I'm so glad I did. The thick noodles are *almost* like udon but still has the firmness of ramen. It's like the best of both worlds. I also made my bowl at level 1 spice (+ $1) and it was just enough for me to feel a kick! My husband made his bowl at spice level 4 (+ $3), which is the second to highest spice level. His spice tolerance is very high as someone who's Thai/Laos, and he really enjoyed it! It wasn't just hot, but the flavor of the spice was prominent and tasted very good. We also really liked the chashu because it was sliced at the perfect thickness and it wasn't too salty. The server was a very sweet lady and the restaurant is not too big, not too small, with a decent amount of tables. Another plus is that they open late on most days, so you can get your late-night ramen cravings fixed. The only downside for us is that, since they charge extra for switching noodles and adding spice, the cost of the bowls ends up being a bit pricey compared to some other restaurants. But if you don't care for thick noodles, or eating spicy, then this shouldn't be a problem! Nonetheless, we're gonna be back many times. :)

My wife and I were recommended to this location by a close friend of ours. Now we are doing the same, recommending this location to others. The venue is small and the you will be looking at a wait time of 20+ minutes. However the taste of the food is well worth the wait. Overall this location has become one of my top 5 best ramen restaurants to dine in at.

Never ever in my life have i had my tongue touched so deeply. I never ever write reviews but i downloaded yelp just for this. This place is such a hidden gem i'm most definitely coming back. Me and my friends ordered pork ramen and some fried chicken and i didn't know what to expect. Even the chicken was just beyond amazing, When the ramen came the moment i laid the ramen in my mouth my taste buds just starting dancing it was such a splendid taste that i did not get tired of the broth was perfect the pork was perfect the egg was so soft flavored and amazing i've never ever wrote anything like this in my life.the ramen was perfect it made my tongue so happy the broth was amazing. Even the service was beyond great. The lady was so kind and got everything that i needed. My friend brought chili oil for some reason and forgot it as we were walking she came out running to return it to us. I have never wrote a review but just eating here made my night this is such an amazing experience it was so amazing. I never liked pork let alone ramen ramen i would always just eat a cup of noodle or buldak but this place opened my tongues heart. This place for sure needs more love.

My new favorite ramen spot! This is a small restaurant with eight 4 person tables. They don't have a huge selection of noodle dishes (4 to be exact), but they do them well and their appetizers/snacks are better than most that I've had elsewhere! Their lunch combos are a great way to try some of their appetizers. Here's what we got: Geso Karaage ($9) I've been looking for the perfect fried squid tentacles and this is it! Perfectly deep fried without being greasy or heavy and they were well seasoned. They came with a dipping sauce on the side to give a slight kick. Tonkotsu ($16 + $4 for Takoyaki in lunch combo) Perfect bowl of ramen where all the components shined. The yellow wavy noodles gripped onto the broth really well and the broth was rich in flavor without being too salty or heavy. It came with 3 thinly sliced chashu that was melt-in-the-mouth tender and had a nice char. The egg had a creamy yolk that burst with umami. It was so good I devoured this entire bowl! The 3 Takoyaki that came in the lunch combo was solid as well. Mazesoba ($16 + $4 for Karaage Fried Chicken in lunch combo) I've had mazemen at other restaurants and this mazesoba is very comparable to them. You can adjust the spicy level though it is additional cost. We didn't end up adding any spice, but I think it needed a slight kick. It was still delicious though! The lunch combo also came with 2 pieces of Karaage Fried Chicken which was so tender and crispy! Overall, this is a solid ramen spot with delicious food and friendly staff. I would 100% come back, especially for the Geso Karaage and Tonkotsu.

I love mazemen, but there are so few restaurants in Orange County that serve it so when I saw that Mymen sold mazemen, I ordered it to go. Overall, the mazemen was really, but a little plain. The shop itself is small, but very cozy and with nice decorations. I'll come back to try their ramen sometime!

I'm not sure why I never knew this restaurant existed even though I live so close to it??? Delicious mazesoba, filling portion, and excellent service--this will be one of my new go-to stop for a quick mazesoba craving fix. The ramens also look delicious! I usually see slices of chashu for mazesobas, but this restaurant serves them with minced meats, which I found to be equally delicious. It was nice to have meat in every bite. I was feeling ballsy and got a level 4 spice, and they gave me a whole grilled jalapeño--it was painful. I do not recommend it.

There are plenty of parking spaces, but can get filled quickly. I ordered the Mymen Mazesoba and it was a dry noodle (no broth). The noodles were really creamy, soft, and delicious. You add some vinegar and mix everything really well. They also provide a really small scoop of rice so you mix it with the sauce after you finish your noodle. If you have 5 or more party OR if you need to combine two tables, they automatically add 18% gratuity. Recommendation(s): - Mymen Mazesoba Service: 5/5 Tip(s): - Plenty of parking spaces but can get full - If party size is 5 or more OR if you need to combine tables, 18% gratuity is automatically added - Restrooms available - Hot sauce costs extra money

Came here on a Saturday night around 10m and was seated right away. I tried out this place when they were still in Santa Ana and it lived up to its hype. And still does. The tonkatsu ramen broth is so creamy and tasty. The chasu pork is so good and just the right amount of fatiness taste. The owners are so nice. Love the gundam on the wall.

Came here with some friends for dinner for the first time. I've heard great things about their dry noodles but I really wanted something with broth since it was so cold out. I ended up getting the Shrimp Wonton Shoyu one which came with a egg, nori, half an egg, and bamboo. I got it with some corn and it was perfect. I am also appreciative that my friend told me level 3 price is too spicy. I got level 2 and that shit was hot. Even for someone like me that likes spicy. The ramen was good and flavorful. I got their regular thin noodles and they were cooked perfectly and I enjoyed it. My friends got the popular Mymen Mazesoba dry noodles. It came with a bowl of rice. I did end up trying some and really liked it. I would get that next time. Besides our ramen bowls we got a lot of appetizers. We tried their tofu, takoyaki, brussel sprouts and Karaage fried chicken. The fried chicken was my favorite. But all of their appetizers are cool. Bowls are about $20 which is affordable. The service was excellent but it was a little slow since it was really busy that night. We met around 6pm and there wasn't a wait but there was a wait after us. The restaurant is small and casual. Parking is easy since it's a a strip mall with a parking lot out front. I would come back again.

Been here twice already and overall I find this to be an underrated, solid ramen place! The first time I was here I got the tonkotsu ramen and it hit the spot! The broth was rich, I opted for the thick noodles and that really made it a hearty meal. Good flavor! The latest time I went I tried the vegan ramen, and tasted some of the wonton shoyu. The vegan ramen was so good! The cauliflower had this nice roasted flavor to it and the broth was so rich, you wouldn't think vegan broth could be rich and flavorful but this is! The only other place I've had vegan ramen is hironori, and I think both nail their vegan ramen. So if you like that one, this one is on par and unique in its own way. I love swapping the noodles for the thick noodles, and adding garlic + spicy paste to the broth. I tried a little of the shoyu and that was delicious and classic also. Located in a slightly unassuming plaza, this is a reliable ramen place that isnt too busy. Next time, I will definitely try the mazesoba. Recommend if your craving ramen in the garden grove area!
