This was our first time coming to slurp and Ramen and we have to say that it is truly a magnificent and impressive experience. Peter was our server and he was very prompt to greet us and usher us to our table and was extremely friendly, personable and professional. The appetizers were delicious. We had the dumplings and the bulgogi eggrolls, YUM!!! We look forward to coming back. Oh and the broth is EPIC!!!

First time here with friends, and I’m so glad they offer a vegetarian ramen option for plant-based folks like me! The broth was rich and flavorful—slightly on the saltier side, but I enjoyed every last noodle. The generous amount of fresh veggies made it extra satisfying. Great job, and keep up the awesome work! Cheers 🥂

Walked in today expecting the same great experience I’ve had in the past, only to find that they’ve replaced servers with iPads for ordering directly from the table. While I understand the move from a business standpoint – it probably saves on labor costs – it definitely takes away from the personal, human touch that used to make the place feel so welcoming. On top of that, something about the ramen felt off this time. The broth didn’t have the same rich, dense texture it normally does; it tasted thinner, almost watered down. I usually add corn on the side, but even that didn’t taste or feel the same as it used to — less fresh, less flavorful. Maybe it was just an off day, but between the automated ordering system and the noticeable drop in food quality, it feels like this place might be starting to cut some corners. And with the iPads handling most of the service, it’s hard to justify leaving much of a tip when the hostess is just dropping off the food. Still hoping this was a one-time slip, because I’ve always enjoyed this spot before today.

Large portions and tasty spot hidden on Bristol St If you bring friends it is definitely worth getting the pitcher alongside their chashu ramen bowl, enjoy!

Just tried Slurpin’ Ramen Bar in Costa Mesa and I’m still dreaming about that garlic edamame. No joke — spicy, garlicky, perfectly blistered. I would eat a bucket of it. Actually, I might have. Gyoza were crispy golden pockets of joy, and the ramen broth? Creamy, flavorful, and made me question every cup noodle I’ve ever had. Bonus: the service was fast, the vibe was chill, and I left full but already thinking about my next visit. Anyone else obsessed with garlic edamame like I am? Drop your favorite ramen side dishes — I’m on a mission.

We didn't get to take a picture of the food because everything was delicious!! They can bring out a spice bottle so you can tailor your broth to your spice tolerance. The "slurpin' ramen" was delicious! The rice bowls sre also very tasty. I added the edamame sauce to it and it made it even more delicious! The spicy garlic appetizer is MUST HAVE! The sauce used is sooo good, I'm drooling thinking about it again 🤤 Tristan, one of the owners, made our experience really great. The vibes were great, he chatted with us and told us about the dishes. Really great atmosphere and service! Thank you Tristan!!!!
