â€œStraight from Tokyo, Chabuya is the urban ramen bar that revolutionized a favorite Japanese pastime. Its menu was conceived under the meticulous eye of Master Chef Yasuji Morizumi, renowned for his peak season ingredients and an uncanny talent for arousing the senses. Taste Chabuya ramen and two things will strike you immediately. The first is an instant appreciation for the fresh, organic ingredients cooked to mouth-watering perfrection. The second is an overwhelming urge to take another bite.â€?

What’s up w/ the ramen joints on Sawtelle? You love salt–go party at Chabuya. It’s SALT CENTRAL. You love boiling salt? Go have a blast at this place. Geez…is it so hard to be mildly imaginative w/ the food and modestly trustful of the customer’s good taste? Why the INSANE RELIANCE ON SALT?

I went back to Chabuya a couple weeks ago. The first time I went was with EDBM shortly after it opened. I think that it has gotten better, the broth is a bit more mellow and there were some delicious carmelized bits on top (onion, garlic?). Also, we started with one of their salads which was really good, a nice mix of different lettuce with soy ginger dressing.

Its nice to have a place that serves good tonkotsu stlye ramen in LA. I used to like shinsengumi but the service was terrible 3 times in a row. Once, I ordered a kaedama (noodle refill) and got it 20 mins later. When I told the waiter that my soup was already ice cold and I didn’t want the kaedama anymore, he gave me a dirty look. I’ve yet to have bad service at chabuya and hopefully my stroke of luck with the place will continue since its close to where I live and i’m not too keen on miso and shoyu style ramen.
Though Chabuya isn’t as good as japans Ippudo or Aoba chains for tonkotsu imo, it certainly satisfies the urge for me while im on this side of the planet. :)

I tried out Chabuya a few weeks ago (April/May 2006) and I will have to recommend people to stay away from this restaurant as the other choices on Sawtelle are much MUCH better. Ordered the standard chashu ramen. I noticed that they start their soup from powdered chicken bouillon, a huge no-no for those who are lactose intolerant as those usually contain lactose as the main ingredient. As for taste, it was very thin and not flavorful as you would think with the amount of chicken bouillon they used. However the noodles were good, but the poor quality soup they rested in didn’t pull the rating of the ramen up. A good ramen restaurant in Los Angeles area is Orochon Ramen in Weller Court of Little Tokyo. The bell peppers in their soup is a little different, but the soup base is delicous (and doesn’t cause problems to those who are lactose intolerant). One drawback about Orochon Ramen is that chashu is not automatically included in their ramen, but probably because their chashu is one of the best I’ve ever had.
