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。
A Nerima institution that has earned a place on Tabelog's Top 100 Ramen list for seven consecutive years from 2019 to 2025, alongside five straight Michelin Bib Gourmand recognitions.
食べログ百名店に2019年から7年連続で選ばれ、ミシュランビブグルマンにも5年連続で輝いた江古田の名店。
The signature shio ramen — house-made noodles in a broth built on the umami of ground chicken and carefully selected oils — took a three-star rating at the JAPAN MENU AWARD 2021, and at around 1,000 yen it is routinely called Michelin quality at neighborhood prices.
鶏ひき肉の旨みとオイルを丁寧に重ねた自家製麺の塩らぁ麺はJAPAN MENU AWARD 2021で三つ星を獲得し、「この値段でミシュランレベル」と評されるほどの完成度を誇る。
With only a few dozen bowls served at each sitting, queues form before opening even on weekdays, drawing fans from across Tokyo who say Ekoda is worth the trip.
昼・夜ともに数十食限定のため平日でも開店前から行列ができ、遠方から「江古田まで来てでも食べる価値がある」と足を運ぶファンが後を絶たない。

What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A quietly celebrated salt ramen spot nestled in a residential area near Ekoda Station. 5-time Michelin Bib Gourmand and 6-time Tabelog Top 100 winner. Crystal-clear chicken broth ramen and a Sichuan-style soupless dan dan noodle are the twin signatures, with only 7 counter seats and limited daily servings.

Patrons frequently say 'unbelievable quality for the price' and 'the best salt ramen in Tokyo.' Multiple reviewers report willingly queuing 2 hours. Menu items have won JAPAN MENU AWARD 3-star recognition.
