Tiny but high quality local institution of a ramen shop. Listed on the Michelin Bib Gourmand. The prices reflect that. Cash, cards, and QR code payment accepted. Expect a queue. Salt and soy sauce are their standards, along with slightly spicy dandan noodles. Limited sets change periodically. The noodles are quite chewy and the toppings are small in size but prepared with care. Unlike other ramen shops the soup is so good you might want to drink it all. I've been visiting since they opened in 2015 and although they only offer counter seating now the quality of the food has never varied.

Delicious chicken stock base soy sauce ramen. Had the special soy sauce version with three kinds of pork and boiled egg (1,050JPY) plus the pork with spring onion rice (350JPY). The ramen is very good and one of those oriented towards Michelin Star -ish clean and balanced taste. Has had several Michelin Star / Bib Gourmand places before so it was not surprisingly good. But overall the shop is very open with their ingredients and sources. Seems to work extra hard to provide good produce and make the good farmers be known, cooking the food organically and adding no additives, as well as being friendly to children/family, which is precious in Tokyo. Rice with pork is fair too and good match to finish up the rest of ramen soup. Portion is not large but perfect if you want to try both the noodle and the rice and if you don't mind the price.

Light but intensely flavorful ramen that will taste great on both hot and cold days! The clear broth is amazing, and great care is taken when adding each topping (including a little dumpling!). The flower petal-theme is cute ☆, the staff is friendly and the wait was not too long ~ definite recommendation if you find yourself in the area. The only reason why I rated this 4/5 is that I personally prefer a different style of chashu. However, I wonder if a thicker and meatier type would have suited this broth... perhaps chicken or tofu would have been best for me ^-^.

This was a really, really delicious, authentic ramen shop. Sure, you might have to wait in line and there aren't many seats, but that's what makes it so appealing. You stand there, looking forward to really good ramen. You're actually sitting at a counter. You watch the chef prepare the food, and other people are sitting next to you enjoying their food. You savor your time, and I really, really enjoyed it, and when I got my ramen, I was incredibly happy because it looked and tasted really good. This is a shop I highly recommend. It's truly a gem; you can't go wrong with this shop; you can even drive a few kilometers; it's worth it.

A pretty decent Ramen place next to Ochanomizu Univ. It serves Shio(塩; salt) based and Shoyu(醤油; soy sauce) based ramen dishes.
