Kyoto, Japan｜祇園らーめん 京都本店

Been in Japan for 1 week and this was the best meal that we had so far. Tried the beef salt broth Ramen and tokunou miso Ramen. Added char siu pork to both. Ordering was with phone in store so it was stress free and easy. Portions were excellent for regular size. Beef broth had a fantastic grill/char flavor and miso was rich and filling. Will eat here again, a must stop location for visitors. If a review complains about not enough meat, that is a standard preparation in japan, so I recommend adding more meat as someone from USA. The location is small with 7/8 seats, so I do not recommend it for large groups.

Ramen was good. I would rather go for pork than beef. Pork was way better. Restaurant deserves higher rating

Really not understanding the low review on this place. My boyfriend and I walked in desperate for ramen on a Saturday night where there were lines everywhere. Checked reviews after and questioned our choice BUT so happy we stayed. The ramen portion is really big (regular - you can make it larger for an extra) and it was delicious. We took the miso ramen and the beef one, along with some gyozas. Only thing is the language barrier - we ordered some add one that we wouldn’t have needed to given they already came with the ramen. Really recommend this place though overall!
