Staff was friendly and food was great!

Kyoto-style soy sauce tonkotsu ramen impression. The soup is a light tonkotsu, and the thinly sliced char siu goes well with it. I submerged the bean sprouts in the soup and ate them after they were well blended. Paitan (salt tonkotsu) has a taste where the saltiness slightly outweighs the richness of the tonkotsu. And, the unexpected side menu "aburi mayo char siu don" is exquisite. The aroma of char siu torched with a burner just before serving is irresistible. The mayonnaise and umami are well soaked into the rice below, and it was a very satisfying bowl.

◎175/2026 "Mr. Ramen" ▫️2-13-12 Imazato, Nagaokakyo-shi, Kyoto ▫️Parking available ▫️Ticket system, cash only "Mr. Ramen Regular" 930 yen ▫️Noodles hard [Soup] Akira-kei light soy sauce tonkotsu soup. Maybe because there are many toppings, it is lukewarm, which is fatal. [Noodles] Medium-thin straight noodles. I asked for it hard, but the hardness is normal. [Toppings] Char siu, green onions, bean sprouts are all plentiful. First visit here, less than 15 minutes walk from Hankyu Nagaokakyo Station. Popular shop with customers coming one after another immediately after opening. The default ramen served shortly after looks like Akira-kei. First of all, the soup... The pork flavor is good, light. But... maybe because there are many toppings, it is lukewarm... This is fatal for me, no matter how delicious the others are. The plentiful char siu is soft and delicious. I want hard noodles to be really hard. The atmosphere of the shop and customer service are wonderful! Thank you for the meal.

This is an old shop founded in 1980. I have seen the shop name on the internet before, but this is the first time I have actually visited the shop. The reason I haven't visited it before is because the location of the shop is a bit far from the station and on a road I don't usually pass by car. Parking across the road. Enter the shop and there is a ticket machine in the back right. The shop only has a counter but there are plenty of seats. "Mr. Ramen" Based on a refreshing tonkotsu that can be called the king of Kyoto ramen, soy sauce mixed a bit stronger. Maybe it could be called richness and sharpness, but if anything, it is a characteristic soy sauce taste that is deliberately made to stand out. The chewy medium-thin noodles are a perfect fit and it's good. For this one, hard is definitely the way to go. "Chikara Meshi (360 yen)" that I ordered as a side is white rice with back fat and sauce. It felt a bit boring if eaten as is, so I added soup & garlic. It became a nice dish that is addictive. The shop is bright and has a good atmosphere, and the customer service of the staff is also polite. I understand why this shop gets a lot of support from the locals.

Popular shop but access is inconvenient. Parking is large and easy to go by car. Personally, Kyoto ramen with restrained tonkotsu aroma. Since there are only 14 counter seats, outside waiting may occur depending on the time. The soup is probably tonkotsu and pork. The tonkotsu smell unique to cooking in the shop is little, but a solid pork soup. Kaeshi is soy sauce, miso, paitan. The noodles are probably low (no) hydration straight medium-thin. If it's your first time, the shop's sign "Mr. Ramen (Soy Sauce Tonkotsu)" is recommended. ◾️Mr. Ramen Small 800 yen ◾️Fried Chicken Set 650 yen Besides ramen, sides are also recommended! Fried chicken is bone-in chicken wings with soy sauce that is well soaked, making rice unstoppable. There is no strong impact or habit, but ramen that you suddenly want to eat when you almost forget about it. The popularity that lasts for nearly half a century is not an addiction, but a unique Mr. Ramen taste that will not make you bored.
