Most people look for famous ramen spots in Japan…
but chains are worth trying too.
Local and famous ramen shops are amazing, of course.
But in Japan, ramen chains are seriously good too.
Here are 10 I’ve personally been to many times.
Ichiranー
Classic tonkotsu ramen.
Private booths so you can fully focus on your bowl.
Customizable and great for your first ramen in Japan.
I always end up getting an extra serving of noodles.
Ippudoー
A global brand, but still on another level in Japan.
Choosing between Shiromaru and Akamaru is part of the fun.
Their spicy bean sprouts are addictive.
Kairikiyaー
I’ve been going here a lot recently.
Soy sauce ramen with rich back fat. So good.
Rairaiteiー
I’m hooked lately.
Ramen + fried rice is a must.
Honestly, the fried rice alone is worth going for.
Kagetsu Arashiー
I used to go all the time as a student.
Great for people who like rich, heavy flavors.
Easy to find across Japan.
Kourakuenー
Simple but solid.
Shoyu ramen or miso negi ramen are my go-to.
Mita Seimenjoー
Tsukemen specialist.
Thick noodles with a rich dipping broth.
Same price no matter the portion size.
Ringer Hutー
Technically champon, not ramen.
But the vegetable volume is insane.
Surprisingly filling and weirdly addictive.
Gyoza no Ohshoー
Beer, ramen, and gyoza. Perfect combo.
Casual, but always hits.
Osaka Ohshoー
Different from Gyoza no Ohsho.
Famous for crispy gyoza.
Perfect with a cold beer.
In Japan, chains are worth trying too.
Which one would you try?
Any other recommendations?

@JapanTripFriend Ippudo in Japan is so fucking good.
My first meal in Japan was at the Ippudo Umeda in Osaka. I didn’t know it was a chain yet.
A hell of a welcome.

@AllenKessler @Bradpaps @Kyna_CooL Times are tough even for @AllenKessler but all these people talking about how cheap uber is are delusional it’s pretty expensive all the way to the m from the airport

I land at 830pm in Vegas.
Anyone want a free dinner at M resort tonight if you can pick me up at the airport?
Respond in comments if you are interested.
