WHY IT'S A MESHI MAP PICK
Locals keep coming back. That is the real proof.
地元の人が、通い続ける。それが何よりの証明。
In the cutthroat ramen scene around Umeda's Kappa Yokocho, ZEN LABORATORY has carved out its own niche with an inventive pairing: rich all-chicken broth alongside a dipping broth built from bonito and kombu water.
全鶏スープと鰹昆布水つけ麺という独自の路線で、大阪・梅田かっぱ横丁エリアの激戦区に確かな地位を築いた一軒。
Named to Tabelog's Top 100 Ramen list for 2025, it draws devoted regulars who line up before the doors open — morning and night — yet somehow keeps bowls priced between 1,000 and 1,200 yen.
食べログラーメン百名店2025に選ばれ、昼も夜も開店前から並ぶ常連が絶えない人気ぶりでありながら、1杯1,000〜1,200円という価格設定に「この量と質でこの価格は破格」という声が後を絶たない。
The sleek, design-forward interior pulls in everyone from hardcore ramen hunters to curious first-timers.
スタイリッシュな空間づくりも相まって、ラーメンマニアから初心者まで幅広い層を虜にしている。
