One of the standout dishes at Kitada is their signature Kaidashi Ramen. This bowl of noodles features a perfectly cooked egg, tender slices of chashu pork, and a generous amount of fresh vegetables. The broth is the star of the show, with its complex flavors and velvety texture that coats each strand of noodle. It's a truly satisfying and comforting dish that will leave you craving for more.

What sets Kitada apart from other ramen shops is not only their dedication to using high-quality ingredients, but also their attention to detail in every aspect of the dining experience.

Awesome ramen shop opens in early morning.

We ordered the scallop based soup ramen. The broth was fresh and flavourful without being overly fishy. The ramen texture was also outstanding.

The clam rice was also a nice addition at only 250 yen.

Very good ramen experience

Well worth the wait! There was a queue even at 7am, but the warm soup on a rainy morning was perfect. I tried the salt based soup, and really enjoyed that I could taste the sweetness of the clams from the broth. The different types of chashu are very enjoyable, and the egg was also perfectly cooked. I would prefer my noodles to be less floury/more firm, but it's just a personal preference
