Japanese Soba Noodles Tsuta (Tokyo/Yoyogi Uehara) 3-2-4 Nishihara, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo Located near Yoyogi Uehara Station East Exit on the Odakyu Line, this ramen shop was founded in Sugamo in 2012. It earned its first Michelin star in 2016, and relocated to Yoyogi Uehara in December 2019. After the sudden passing of owner chef Yuki Onishi in September 2022, the shop had to temporarily close, but it reopened in February 2023 with the staff continuing his legacy. On September 19, 2023, a special event was held, "Japanese Soba Noodles Tsuta x Chinese Soba Tomita x La-men Iidashoten ~For Friends~" to commemorate one year since Onishi's passing. The event featured a course menu of ramen, rice dishes, and dessert. The ramen soup was a triple soup combining the concentrated pork bone soup from Tomita, the pure clear soup from Iidashoten, and the flavorful condensed clam soup from Tsuta. The noodles were Tsuta's original blend made with high-quality flour, and the toppings included menma, flavored egg, chashu, green onions, and wontons. The wontons were particularly delicious, made with Tsuta's secret flavor. Overall, it was a delightful and emotional experience, enjoying the exquisite flavors and unique dishes.

Hello, it's me, Shogyo Mujou. This is my first visit here. I placed my order using a high-tech machine and entered the restaurant. The seats were welcomed by "Reserve tags" with the names of reserved guests written on them. This kind of small hospitality really touched me. There are more and more high-priced ramen shops with great reviews, but as customers, we need to get rid of our fixed ideas in order to experience them. The drink menu had a wide variety of options. I wonder what sake would go well with. Maybe it's targeted towards foreigners. It was a wonderful restaurant that provided polite service and delicious food. Thank you for the meal.
