Order the Tsukemen (Dipping-Style Pork Tonkatsu Ramen) with an Extra Egg & Extra Char-Siu. The Big Bowl is quite filling so maybe order the regular size. Add some Onikasu Chilli & 3 Spoons of Garlic👍

This all-ramen restaurant from the popular izakaya just across the street serves a completely different bowl here, using thick noodles and a dense, porky broth that's chock full of garlic. Read more

When ordering the Tsukemen, try to Eat Fast- for the Floating Pork Fat tends to Coagulate as the soup loses it's heat. A Quick-Fix is to Add some Fresh, Hot Broth to it! The Fat made me Almost Puke!😲

Simply put, this is the most intense ramen LA has ever seen. The tsukemen is a great choice for starters while the regular ramen bowl packs are garlicky punch. Read more

Do as the Tips say here as well as the playfully suggested amounts to add that are posted on the wall & Add 3 Spoonfulls of the Garlic provided on the table top!👍

Get the Tsukemen (then again, you really only have two types of ramen to choose from.) Take a 3 hour nap afterwards.

This restaurant is across the street from its sister. It's signature bowl uses thick noodles and a broth that's full of garlic and pork back fat. Annex serves in a crowded room until 12 a.m. Read more

1. Put name on list, outside. 2. Have a seat next to heatlamp (night) outside. 3. Server brings menu outside to you, so that you may place order. 4. Server calls your name & seats you inside. 5. Enjoy

I’d been noticing a lot of places serving mazemen recently, so decided to try the Annex Dry Style here. Highly recommend!

LONG WAIT. But the Tsukeman ramen is absolutely worth it! Tasty broth and pork!
Jeffrey JamesMay 23, 2017
The pork ramen is fantastic! The noodles are thick & springy. Definitely not like your standard ramen shop. The broth is good too! Add loads of garlic!
Larisa GrollemondDecember 3, 2017
Pork ramen is the best, hands-down. Get green onion on the side and add extra garlic. Cash-only and be prepared to wait at peak times.

Make sure you're at the ANNEX (the one with the vine wall). There's only a few seats, so get your name down early. Plenty of shops to visit around though!
Ryan LeggettJune 4, 2017
Seriously good ramen. Order the dipping noodles and stand outside in anticipation of the goodness to come.
Kenny KhuuSeptember 10, 2018
Extremely rich/fatty/tasty tonkotsu ramen that may be too much for many. Thick udon like noodles were chewy. Chashu was thick and somewhat tender. Egg was nicely soft boiled with light flavor. 4/5
LAistMay 12, 2015
Annex's soft-boiled egg features a runny yolk that is delectable. The broth may be overly rich for ramen traditionalists, but the tsukemen is tough to find in Los Angeles.
Joseph CNovember 17, 2014
Order an Extra Egg! It's well worth it, look @ that glossy shine!!! WOOOOO!!!😅

The ramen here is amazing. You must use the garlic and onikasu (red pepper).

Japanese Style Bidet for a Sure Clean! 👍😂🌊 The Best Part, is the Seat Warming Option! Nice & Toasty!♨😂😂😂😂😂

Large Tsukemen Pork Ramen Bowl with Extra Char-Siu, pre-dipping sauce, spices & add-ons 🍲☺
Gayle AlexanderMay 6, 2018
The tsukemen is better than the normal ramen. Cash only so bring around $20 if you don’t want a drink. No alcohol. The staff are kind of rude made my Nephew sit on his own..
Ryan TaboraMarch 15, 2015
The tonkatsu ramen noodles are thick here. They also give you garlic to put in the soup. Slightly different from across the street!
Joseph CNovember 17, 2014
Matcha Green Tea is Always a Great End to a Good Meal!🍵👍😊💚✌
Jenn ChenFebruary 6, 2019
AMAZING TSUKEMEN with perfectly springy noodles. Don’t bother with the ikura don since it’s mostly rice.
Danielle NeufeldSeptember 1, 2014
The richest ramen broth I've ever tasted! Salty & delicious, we liked the regular one. Egg is also great.

Large Tsukemen Pork Tonkatsu Bowl: pre-noodles, spices & side dish add-ons! 🍜☺

They now (finally) take cards & allow to-go orders.
Benito QuevedoJuly 19, 2017
Seriously excellent ramen. Order the regular size unless you are really hungry.
Anna TranMay 24, 2015
Tsukemen and ramen broth are the same. Both good!
Allen KimMarch 27, 2015
So much food. Avoid adding extra pork. You will be full even with the regular size.
Paul MasataniApril 5, 2016
noodles are bomb the wait and inaccurate approximate wait time are not. I do not know why people think this is better than Daikokuya other than noodles.
Christopher GarciaSeptember 27, 2014
Awesome tonkotsu ramen, get the thick noodles.
Brandon M.August 6, 2014
The Tsukemen here is the best in LA. It will ruin all other ramen for you.
Stephanie SzetoDecember 27, 2017
Get the tsukemen and expect a 1hr+ wait.
feliciaAugust 30, 2014
big servings. dipping ramen is yummy but so fatty.
Sophyan JulioJanuary 16, 2015
A lot of pork fat if you are in that kind of thing
Don OkudaJanuary 24, 2015
Get here before 6pm to avoid the wait.

The bomb.com... heavy ramen not for noobies.

Chewy and thick noodles
ShawSeptember 25, 2014
What's worse, their ramen or their service? Both are equally bad. Baka! 🙅👉🙊🍜👎

Ramen is good! Large serving!
Neal U.February 15, 2016
unhealthy? Yes. Amazing damn delicious? Hells yes.

Order ramen, bring cash. [mic drop]
Winnie KhooDecember 7, 2014
Caution: average 1.5 hr wait; both ramen has rich, fatty broth. Tasty, but too much for me
Michael KalecOctober 24, 2017
Simple dishes. Really good.
Jose OrtegaJuly 28, 2016
Best ramen in LA!
Brian SAugust 25, 2014
Ramen... Of course.

Tsukemen is good
Ken NewburgJune 9, 2017
Oder the Noodles you can't go wrong here !
Darren KJuly 2, 2017
Not a lot of seating. The ramen is really fatty. Unnecessarily fatty. Wouldn't call this Japanese if they don't do this in Japan.
