Shin-sen-gumi Yakitori Men-ya

Food is okay Not what it was before! The passion is gone, the Japanese ambiance is dead! The service is just okay! Not sure I want to go back!

Today, Shin Sen Gumi Yakitori Men Ya Alhambra is 3rd anniversary. So I went it.I selected 3 Yakitori skewers. All Yakitori skewer 25%off !! The restaurant server was friendly. The restaurant is not too loud. It's just right! I'll definitely go again !!!

This is our first time trying this location and it was very pleasant. The server was very attentive to our needs and she was able to let us know what items were not available for the night. We got some pork skewers which were very flavorful and crispy, I got a sake and I usually like to drink it with edamame but unfortunately they didnt have the dish so I ended up getting some fried gyozas and they were fresh. My date got some curry which he enjoyed. We both got ramen and added additional toppings. The ramen always hits the spot, the broth is flavorful and the noodles were perfectly cooked. We want to come back for happy hour or lunch, they had some good specials.

I would recommend this ramen place if you're a ramen lover. I ordered their Hakata ramen, Satsuma ramen, takoyaki and mille crepe cake few days ago. It was a hot day that day and we held a party outdoor but then we had to move it to indoor. Hakata ramen (pork flavored ramen with chashu pork, green onion, pickled ginger sesame seeds) $12.50I like their ramen noodles soup base so much. The taste was on point and flavorful. Some ramen places like to add bamboo shoot but I hate that. It ruins the ramen soup flavor and I'm glad that they did not add bamboo shoot into it. Chashu pork was soft and delicious. Satsuma ramen (rich chicken, pork vegetable based broth, thick noodles, chashu pork, bean sprouts, green onions crispy fried onions) $12Their thick noodles were also delicious. I like Hakata ramen pork flavored soup base more than this one though. (my personal preference) I like that they put a lot of crispy fried onions on top of the ramen. Takoyaki $6 deep fried octopus pancake ball, okonomi sauce, mayo, topped with bonito flakes green laver (5 pcs) we ordered Takoyaki as appetizer and they were okay, we've had better Takoyaki at other places mille crepe cake $6.5 homemade style crepe cake with vanilla flavor. Highly recommended!!!! tasted heavenly! Service was good and the staff were friendly. Their price was very reasonable. Oh, I forgot to mention that they have Yakitori too. We will go back there soon.

Went and tried the sake tasting event they had. It was a fun experience. They had 5 different sakes tonight and it was all very smooth. My favorite one was the bubbly sake. The service was quick and friendly. The place is good for a big group to drink and eat some skewers.
