Taito City, Tokyo, Japan｜Ramen Tanaka soba Asakusa

Not a fancy place but it was super easy to order. There is a photo with numbers on the type of ramen so order the number you would like. I was able to use my Pasmo card to pay on the ticket machine. Food came out really quick and the pork was cooked perfectly! I typically don't like pork but the cut and seasoning were great! Water pitchers are on the table. Super cheap eat!

Tokyo has tons of ramen, rarely do you have great broth and an option to add spicy condiments. Portions are generous and services fast.

I really do not go out of my way to review things often but I had to for this! This is seriously my favorite ramen place ever. I’ve had lots of good ramen both in Japan and in the US, including many of the “famous” places, but I stopped in this place totally by accident on one of my visits to Tokyo and now I go out of my way to go every single time I’m there. The noodles are cooked perfectly, pork is delicious, and the spicy miso is the perfect level of spice to me - not too spicy but not too mild either. They’re also very kind and accommodating to non-Japanese speaking foreigners like me, and ordering on the machine outside is very easy! If you’re in Asakusa looking for a quick, affordable, and absolutely delicious meal this is it.
