What people say, in short
Most commenters recommend Bincho, and a few name the Tarzana shop. Two point to the clear tonkatsu ramen, one calling it a regular pick on chilly or wet days and another saying it comes close to what is served in Japan. A few place it among the best ramen in LA or the Valley, and one praises the potstickers. Caveats: one finds it fine but not as strong as the spots most often praised, and one says it may be a trek depending on where you stay.
