A rare revival: a single Tokyo outpost opened in 2021 to resurrect the legendary ramen shop first established in Hakata in 1941.
Rated 3.80 on Tabelog across 2,023 reviews and named to the Tabelog Ramen Hyakumeiten in both 2023 and 2024, the recipe inherited from Hakata has found an unwavering following in Tokyo.
The crystalline soup — built from clams and whole chicken — faithfully recreates the shio ramen of the original Sanmaro, while an original kombu-water tsukemen adds its own chapter to the lineage; at 1,700 yen for the tokusei shio soba, the price is frankly astonishing given the depth of that broth, and lines form for both lunch and dinner on weekdays, with the kitchen often closing early once the day's stock runs out.

What kind of place?
Fake reviews removedThe only Tokyo restaurant reviving the legendary 1941 Hakata shop 'Sanmaro'. Crystal-clear salt soup combining whole chicken with clams and seafood. Tabelog 3.80.
The legendary Hakata ramen shop revived in Tokyo. The crystal-clear shio broth is exquisite, with Tabelog 3.80. Closed on weekends, weekday-only operation makes it hard to visit. Lines reportedly grow longer with each visit.
