The last time I was here was over ten years ago. I don't even think vertical photos were a thing lol and ramen in OC was very, very different then. Ramen Zetton back in the day had some good promise. I was back in town in between living in Tokyo and NYC and just happened to check out the neighborhood newcomer.
More than ten years later, I decided to give Zetton another try. Under new ownership since May (yes I asked because I remember seeing it for sale last summer), Zetton has somehow remained in the same space as ten years ago as if it had ultra-teleportation abilities.
Then menu is simple and different from what I remember, but regardless of new ownership, I'm sure a lot had evolved over the past decade of ramen pandemonium.
I decided to order the Zetton Shoyu Ramen (mostly because I wasn't in the mood for the corn in the deluxe).
Noodles are from Yamachan. I know this because the Wismettac driver made a delivery while I was slurping. Haha.
Overall, I didn't hate it. It conjured memories of the shoyu at Ebisu Ramen in Fountain Valley, but mostly it reminded me of a simple, old-school, American shoyu ramen. I don't know if I'll ever go back but that MSG might make me crave it again.
