Torikoku Chuka Suzuki
A tiny gem with only 10 seats in the basement, 4 minutes from Mitaka Station south exit. Operates as 'Suzuki' (chicken ramen) for lunch and 'Suzuoni' (stamina ramen) at night. The signature lunch dish 'Koku Shio' (rich salt ramen) features a deeply savory chicken-based salt broth.
Reviews consistently praise the 'hidden gem feel of this 10-seat basement counter' and 'broth that is light yet deeply flavored.' Considered by many as the best bowl in Mitaka. One-person operation that closes when sold out.
