Delicious ramen worth the wait!
My wife and and were visiting Tokyo for vacation and had lunch here, the food was delicious and the staff was very helpful. We didn’t speak Japanese, but the individual running the line explained that we would wait in line, then while in line wait for the person in front of us to go in and get their order tickets from a machine inside, they would come back out and get back into line, then we would go in, get our tickets, come back out and get In line! You then wait to get to the front of the line and they take your tickets, start to prepare your food, and then you go inside, sit down, then get served you’re delicious ramen

We came here because of a recommendation from a friend. The restaurant opens at 11, but the line begins forming before that. There is an English menu next to the ordering machine. You need to insert money first then press the options you want for your ramen. The service was very good even though they didn't speak English but they were very friendly!! Suggest getting the extra assorted meats. We made a mistake and ordered extra noodle, but the extra noodles were still very delicious with different seasoning.

Came here because of the massive rating. Arrived at 5:30pm and was 8th in line. Tried the special salt ramen 1600. All the toppings were on point. Really loved the tomato. The broth had a delicate umami flavor and not too salty. Service was michelin level as well. Overall will come again one day it is a great top class ramen experience.
