Ramen Yamadaya launched in Torrance, California in July of 2010. Tonkotsu broth ramen noodles are our specialty. After more than 20 hours of cooking, the richly fragrant soup is finished with hog bone…
The Tonkotsu Kotteri has a rich broth and very flavorful. The Avocado Fries goes really well with the honey mustard sauce. Im overall satisfied with the food I ordered and will definitely order again.

I have been ordering this dish since before 2017 when they had a store in Culver City. I followed them after they closed after Covid to keep ordering from the Torrance location. Ive ordered from DoorDash with no problems in the past, though the pork belly gets thinner each time. Today was the thinnest Ive ever seen, with as you can see has almost zero fat. I was told they are under new management and give only a "half piece of Kikuni" so the fact that I paid almost $5 for the 2 extra slightly thin pieces of extra dry meat is sad. If you used to eat here you know what I mean and it's no longer worth the price or effort. It makes me sad because it was one of the best ramen places back in the day. But things change, and for the sake of nostalgia I'll blame it on the rising costs of food and the economy. But my spending money is valuable these days too. If they somehow make this a better experience I'll update the review. If not, keep on the lookout for a better ramen experience.

Took forever to make. The soup was cold. The soup was also so small in quantity. Definitely not what the description says and looks like. The noodles were under cooked. They will quote you a time and then take an additional 45 minutes. They missed one of my soups. Sushi was so so.

Al ramen are way too salty icluding the egg whites. We had to add hot water to our ramen in order to eat it.

Level 1 broth tastes like level 2/ 3 extremely spicy. I thought the chili oil would be on the side. The pork tastes cinnamony-just not good. Egg is over cooked, yolks are solid, not gooey. The gyoza and salad are the "best thing"
