Many expect ramen to feature a rich pork broth, but the Salmon Cilantro Mazemen offers a fresh seafood twist. Available only in April and May 2026 at our Sawtelle, CA; Westchase, TX; and San Jose, CA locations, this limited-time dish is captivating diners.


Mazemen, or soupless ramen, was our initial innovation at Tsujita Artisan Noodle. Surpassing sales expectations and receiving positive feedback, it motivated us to explore flavors beyond classic Tonkotsu ramen.


Our latest creation, the Salmon Cilantro Mazemen, combines fresh seafood with bold ingredients, featuring homemade cilantro sauce.

Tips for Enjoying Your Mazemen Experience


To get the most out of your Salmon Cilantro Mazemen, consider these tips:


  • Mix well: Since mazemen is soupless, mixing the noodles thoroughly with the sauce, oil and toppings ensures every bite is flavorful.


  • Try it with a squeeze of lime: Adding a little extra citrus can brighten the dish even more.


  • Add additional salmon or ikura (only at CA locations): Enhance your dish with extra salmon for a rich taste, or ikura for a distinct umami experience.


  • Pair with a light drink: A cold green tea or sparkling water complements the fresh seafood flavors without overpowering them.


What This Means for Ramen Lovers


The Salmon Cilantro Mazemen exemplifies a trend in US ramen culture, where diners seek variety and innovation with fresh, local ingredients and seafood flavors. This limited-time dish shows how ramen can evolve while respecting its roots.


If you’re looking to try something different from Tonkotsu ramen, the Salmon Cilantro Mazemen provides a fresh and unique flavor experience.
