Welcome to Tenkaippin
Los Angeles

For more than 50 years, Tenkaippin has been one of Japan's most beloved ramen brands, famous for its legendary kotteri broth. Since opening our first restaurant in Kyoto in 1971, we have dedicated ourselves to serving a bowl unlike any other–rich, creamy, and packed with unforgettable flavor.

Now, that same iconic taste has arrived in the heart of Los Angeles.

Beyond the ramen, every detail of our restaurant has been thoughtfully designed to bring the spirit of Kyoto to life. The large ceiling installation is inspired by the Kamo River, one of Kyoto's most iconic landmarks, flowing gracefully through the city. Throughout the restaurant, you'll find an atmosphere reminiscent of Japan's traditional street food stalls, creating a warm and lively dining experience.

To further celebrate Japanese culture, we have incorporated Kyogawara (Kyoto roof tiles)–a traditional Kyoto craft–into our interior design. From the architecture to the ambiance, every element has been carefully selected to immerse our guests in the beauty and heritage of Japan while enjoying an authentic bowl of Tenkaippin ramen.
