A delicious meal at Mutekiya 無敵家 about 200m from Ikebukuro station. Highly recommended by a friend, and by looking at Google reviews, this place is very popular. The pork charshu is served in thicker slices and are so tender. Soup-wise, we prefer Ichiran. It just did not provide that kick we were hoping for. I added bonito powder and it improved the soup. Wanton is good too. Just be careful of the chilli on the top. We queued for abt 20min at 4pm. Overall, a satisfying meal :)

It's one of my favorite ramen shops in Tokyo right outside the Ikebukuro station. Stick with #1 and get the Mutekiya ramen special. Rich broth, super tender pieces of pork that fall apart to the touch and the perfect al dente noodles that draw rich broth into your taste buds during each slurp.

There is almost always a 20-30 min line when it's not during rush hour but definitely worth the wait. Cash only, and a little tight for any party more than two. Friendly staff and English menu for those that need it.

One of the most favorite ramen! It's totally my type!
The soup base is really great with smooth and silky. The noodle is well cooked with the chewy texture. I can finish all soup with still craving more of ramen here! The gyoza is pretty good when having together with spicy ramen. Great combination! The restaurant's location is in Ikebukuro and also convenient to go and continue shopping after a meal. I come to have ramen here for two days in a roll.
I think I'm pretty lucky for waitung only 10 mins outside. The customers are quite multi-nationality. It's really famous, but trust me, it's definitely worthy to wait. Really love it! Highly recommend!
