Editorial Review for Mr. Ramen – by Nicolas Rabinovitch
In Short
Walking down East 2nd in the heart of Little Tokyo, the smell of curry emanates from this unsuspecting hole-in-the-wall. Once inside, the casual setting, brick walls and traditional Sumo pictures put patrons at ease, transporting them to a friendly curry house that could easily be in the middle of Osaka. Dedicated ramen enthusiasts and local Japanese residents come to enjoy the signature dish, ranging from the most popular curry ramen to the traditional cashew pork ramen and less traditional fried chicken ramen. Other fare includes pork gyoza dumplings, curry rice and chicken teriyaki.
Hits: The ramen portions are very large, and the setting is cozy and comfortable.
Misses: Parking is difficult, and there is often only a single waitress for the lunch rush.

I have been going to Mr. Ramen for a good long while now. The menu has no frills, but they deliver excellent quality. Large servings are enough for fill you up for dinner and breakfast the next day. The service is alright and the reggae music gives this little hole in the wall a very warm and friendly atmosphere. So if you're short on cash, but if you want a meal that'll fill you up without making you feel like you're gonna have a coronary right afterwards, head over to Mr. Ramen! PS: If you're a tofu lover whose looking for a little more spice, ask for the Mabo Ramen extra spicy. That'll warm you up on a cold night.
Pros: Great food for cheap
Cons: no parking
