Kai Ramen Alhambra

Shared parking lot in a plaza, I can see this place getting packed but I came around 1:30pm on a Sunday and it was pretty open.There was only one other couple dining in and two other parties joined us after. The person who took our order seemed a little bored haha. Tables and seats/booths seemed clean.TIP: check in and get a free Thai tea with any entree (limit one per table and dine in only). I got the Kai yellow ramen and at first my bf wasn't sure how to feel about it cause it was topped with cheese but it was delicious! Beware, the cheese pulls can get a little messy hahah. I think it was supposed to be spicy but I think I'm used to more heat so it didn't taste very spicy to me. The brot...

First of all Google Maps takes you to the wrong plaza where the 168 Market is but it's actually The Valley Square Plaza next to it. Parking was decent there's a big lot in the back with plenty of spaces. We came here on a Sunday around 1pm and got seated right away but started filling up shortly. My bf and I both got a free Thai tea with check in which was nice. He ordered the Kai's white which was a garlic butter base and I got the black with was a black garlic oil with no scallions and added a side of corn. They both came with pork belly, half a soft boiled egg, kikurage mushrooms, scallions and crispy onions.We both thought portion size was just right. We finished and felt just full enoug...

Not a bad place to grab Ramen with average Tsukemen. Parking is fine, the plaza is pretty big with a Supermarket. I was able to park near the restaurant without too much trouble. Went on a Wednesday afternoon for a quick lunch. Place was pretty empty, with only one person serving. Ordered the Tsukemen and the portion felt well sized. Presentation was solid. Came with eggs and two thick pieces of pork. Both were super enjoyable. The broth was not bad either, with some bits of pork in it. I'd prefer the broth to be a bit thicker. However, the noodles were pretty hard to eat, they stuck together and it was hard to grab them to dip. The broth coated the soup fine once I got them to separate thou...

Kai Ramen (Alhambra, CA)Items:1. Kai White $15 4/5 Review: They offer free thai tea if you check in! The tea was very strong, and it was a bit sweet, but it's free! The Kai White ramen is pretty much your standard tonkotsu ramen. The best part was probably their super soft meat. There was only 2 pieces, but the pork melted in my mouth We went on a Wednesday night and there were not that many people. I think the meal for its price is very worth. You can get a solid bowl of ramen plus a free drink of thai tea for $15. ParkingFree. There is a parking lot in front of the store.

Walked in today, so perfect for a rainy day!! It was around 3pm and there were 2 other tables besides me. Tsukemen (dipping ramen) green tea was so tasty... especially the pork! Literally soo tender, I loved it. They're currently short-staffed, but Wendy (the only server there today) was great! Very sweet efficient. FYI, if you check in on yelp, there's a free thai tea.

Still the best ramen in the West SGV. tucked away in the back of a strip center off Valley. just west of New Avenuealways with the ramen, hard noodles. it comes w plenty of toppings. the mrs. always goes with the chicken Kaaraage. she loves it. low key, great food, more than decent service. write a review on Yelp, get a free drink or topping for your ramen.

Ordered the fried chicken ramen (volcano) amazing spicy broth that really had a kick to it. The fried chicken does get soggy in the broth but I was okay with it personally. Service only bad thing, took 30 40 minutes when there was only one other party in the restaurant

Great ramen I ever have. The service is fast and the parking is always available. They use the special thin ramen that can make my red Kai to be very special. I'll be back the next time.
