The lunch time ramen is exquisite. As good as Tokyo noodle restaurants I've eaten in, Dinner, (no ramen served) is good, but there are many other Japanese restaurants which equal it and offer more choices.

Jonathan Gold Reviews Tsujita L.A.
Ramen and Tsukemen at the city's new noodle lover's paradise
Tsujita's noodles, you understand, come with rules. Ramen and tsukemen will not be packaged to go, no matter how tearfully you beg. (You are permitted but not encouraged to take home leftovers.) Only canned, cold tea is available at lunch, although black tea is served at dinner, and if you insist on drinking your tea hot, somebody will heat your aluminum can. If you try to taste the tsukemen dipping sauce alone, somebody probably will stop you before the spoon makes it up to your lips.
A few weeks ago, I sent a couple of visiting friends, who run one of the best three or four restaurants in the East Bay, to Tsujita, telling them that they might find the tsukemen life-changingly good. It must have been. The next day, they were contemplating a move to West L.A.
