What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Ore-Ryu Shio Ramen is a highly acclaimed ramen spot in Tokyo, praised for its incredibly flavorful broths, generous portions, and excellent value. While service and atmosphere might be typical of a busy ramen joint, the quality of the food, especially the signature bowls and the legendary '10,000 yen' ramen, makes it a top-tier dining experience for many.
"Great ramen around the busy shopping area! We ordered their signature ramen and it's highly recommend to order the ramen that's 10,000 yen only, super huge portions and worth it!
Flavours wise - definitely on the heavier side as we ordered both pork bone broth with spicy. What I like the is the garlic infused in chili oil that gives the extra rich flavour!!!
Waiting time is about 40 mins at 2:30PM so do expect to wait, credit card (Wise card works) is available as alternative payment option on vending machine!"

"I’m giving them a 5 even though I didn’t particularly like the service and the atmosphere was typical ramen joint.
But honestly, top 1 or 2 ramen of my life. The 名物男盛り was a standout. Large portion. Delicious flavor. They let you pick broth spice level and noodle texture. I chose creamy spicy broth and normally I could hardly taste the heat but this broth packed a decent amount of it. The noodles were on the thin side (most ramen are), not really to my liking but it still had texture and bite, I chose the least done noodles.
The chashu was cooked to perfection and the soft boiled egg perfectly done. You get a whole egg too! The karaage was generous and tasty though I had some hard edges that were just fried batter.
Service staff seems to get flustered when there are too many things on their plate and that attitude rubs off on customers but whatever. My beer was served to me ten minutes after I sat down and the condiments (which I didn’t bother with) were delivered mid meal.
It’s an extraordinary bowl of ramen for a fantastic price despite the service."

"🍜 Ningyōchō Ramen Inase is one of my favourite ramen spots in Tokyo. Tucked away in the charming Ningyōchō neighbourhood, this cozy little shop serves hearty clam ramen that’s both comforting and full of flavour. It’s open late and loved by locals — a perfect stop after an evening stroll.
The staff are warm and welcoming, even if English is limited, and they make the experience feel genuinely local. Prices are super affordable, and you can even take home their beautifully printed anime-style menu as a free souvenir. A true taste of authentic Tokyo hospitality and flavour!"
