Great AYCE discount for seniors over 60, top option let us sample all items on their menu. Service was fast and friendly. Food tasted delicious as it comes off the hot grill at the table. Many other side dishto choose from, including desserts to finish the meal. Definitely will return again!

Our server Amir was wonderful, the food was amazing, and the restaurant itself looked super awesome. I especially loved the chicken tacos and the caesar salad. We were very impressed and will definitely be repeat customers. Thank you so much!

So great went for a birthday - awesome experience

If you're craving authentic Japanese food, Shin-Sen-Gumi Yakitori & Men-Ya in Alhambra is a must-visit! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with an authentic vibe that transports you straight to Japan. I started with their famous Japanese meat skewers—absolutely delicious! The yakitori was perfectly grilled, with just the right amount of char and tenderness. The flavors were spot-on, and each skewer was a delightful burst of savory goodness. Next, I had the ramen. The broth was rich and flavorful, with a great depth that comes from hours of careful preparation. The noodles were perfectly cooked, and the toppings (from soft-boiled eggs to tender slices of pork) really elevated the dish. It's easily one of the best ramen bowls I've had. To round out the meal, I enjoyed a glass of cold sake. It was smooth and refreshing, a perfect complement to the meal. Overall, everything was great. The service was friendly and attentive, and the food came out quickly without sacrificing quality. Whether you're a fan of yakitori or ramen, this place does it right. I’ll definitely be back for more!
