Shin Sen Gumi
Time for ramen! Of all the places on Sawtelle, Shin Sen Gumi seems to be a pretty solid second best, if you can handle the noise during busy times. Otherwise-- just go at off hours.
Tsujita LA's main location is easily the best place, but they serve only limited amounts of ramen and their absolutely incredible tsukumen, plus the wait is crazy. Personally, while Daikokuya is good, I don't think they're any better than Shin Sen Gumi, nor are they worth the wait...
In any case, we nom nom on agedashi tofu, kara age (fried chicken), and of course, ramen. Some like spicy miso, kim chi, corn, a poached egg, more char shu... it's all delicious!
