Kitakata Ramen Ban Nai brings over 60 years of ramen-making tradition to Costa Mesa, rooted in the Kitakata style that originated in Fukushima, Japan. The restaurant is known for its hand-crinkled noodles, light yet rich pork broth, and melt-in-your-mouth chashu pork. Guests rave about the silky noodle texture, deeply flavorful broth, and standout options like the spicy green chili ramen and miso ramen. The menu also features crispy fried chicken and steamed chashu buns, so there is plenty to explore beyond the bowls. The warm, welcoming atmosphere suits everyone from solo diners to groups, and the attentive service keeps regulars coming back.
Kitakata Ramen Ban Nai is located at 891 Baker St, Costa Mesa, CA 92626.
