CALL

RAMEN TATSUNOYA

16 North Fair Oaks Avenue,
Pasadena, CA 91103 Directions

Since 1999

“Ramen Tatsunoya provides a wide range of ramen, gyoza, unique sushi rolls, and sake, served in a casual brick-walled eatery. The restaurant's specialty is pork-based tonkatsu ramen. The secret to their rich yet delicate tonkatsu broth is using only pork skull bone and water. The broth is simmered for over 15 hours at high temperatures to achieve maximum umami, providing a bold richness and mildness at the same time. Their noodles are handmade exclusively by a local artisanal noodle company, using Ramen Tatsuya's original recipe. Ramen Tatsunoya offers convenient dine-in, takeaway, and delivery services. They have high chairs for the customer's kids. They provide catering services for the customer's events and accept credit cards for payment.”
