Kitakata Ramen Ban Nai Fountain Valley

Best overall Bannai location in my personal opinion. Best balance between Cha-shu and Ramen, Kara-age very crispy, rice just right. Will give 100%Parking: Very large lot, never had a problem in this location.

This is a great ramen spot. I randomly stopped here in between meetings and I'm so glad I discovered this place. So many great options to choose from. Top of my list

I really wanted ramen but all their ramen is pork and they don't have any chicken ramen and no chicken broth, I had the fried chicken appetizer very bland, and huge pieces of chicken You need a knife and a fork and the rice was half way full the bowl it wasn't even a full bowl of rice that I paid $3 for it was a half a bowl other than that may try it one more time This is the second time I've been there and then again may not. Kappo Honda has a soup with chicken broth and their deep fried chicken is much better more flavor,

The downside was the restaurant lowered its AC too much that made 1 of my charsiu buns become a little hardened. So, you have to eat the buns while it's still hot. Please open another branch in Gaithersburg, MD as it needs 1 of the authentic ramen spots like Kitakata Bannai.

Service is good. But several months ago they changed their recipes. The broth is not as defined or dense. and the broth has more salt.
