Title "Fukuoka by plane in autumn 2021 Part 2, Is this taste worth this price!? Envy of Hakata locals" When you come to Fukuoka, the first stop should be Nakasu! In 2021, it was difficult to travel, but finally in autumn, I was able to go. Fukuoka is synonymous with Nakasu! After taking care of some business in Nakasu, I went here for a meal. I had been to Hakataya twice before and both times I thought, "It's not as good as the ramen in Nagahama district, but it's okay." So how was it this time? Let's go in. I arrived at the store on Thursday at 9:20 pm, with one customer already there, and during my 20-minute stay, 6 more customers arrived later. There was only one elderly staff member. What did I order? Hakata Ramen for 290 yen (medium firmness) and a boiled egg for 60 yen. First, the boiled egg arrived separately in a dish, followed by the Hakata Ramen in just 90 seconds! Here's my rating out of 10 points: Soup: 9 points This is delicious!! It's light yet full of rich umami flavor, not too salty, and surprisingly delicious. I was impressed thinking, "Was it this tasty before?" Unlike the creamy taste of "white and cloudy tonkotsu" you find in the Tokyo area, this one has a clear taste similar to a light broth, but with more flavor than it appears. Be careful with the amount of ramen sauce you pour in, as it can quickly become too salty. You can add vinegar and spiciness with pickled ginger, richness with garlic, and spiciness with black pepper. Noodles: 8 points The noodles were thin straight noodles typical of Hakata Ramen. The portion was about 120g. I debated whether to get an extra serving, but I had already eaten udon at "Makino Udon Hakata Bus Terminal" in the evening, so I decided not to. Toppings: 7 points The toppings included green onions and 2 slices of chashu pork. There were pickled ginger and white sesame on the table. The green onions were scallions, and the chashu was thin, about 2mm thick, and 5cm x 7cm in size. It had a roast pork-like taste for a moment, which was quite nice. Boiled egg for 60 yen: 8 points The simmered egg costs 120 yen, which is expensive, but you can get a boiled egg for half the price. When you order, it is served in a separate dish with the shell on. I peeled it and put it in the ramen right away. The egg was cold, but it tasted delicious when warmed in the soup. It was a win-win situation as the soup had cooled a bit and was perfect for those with sensitive tongues. When you dip the yolk in the soup, it absorbs the flavor and tastes delicious. Overall rating: 8 points As a Hakata tonkotsu ramen, it had a taste that made me think it was a "clear broth style," but it also had a slight cloudiness that reminded me of Hakata Ramen. From the appearance, I thought, "Was Hakataya's ramen like this? This soup is not something you see in the Kanto region." The taste also left that impression, but Hakataya's ramen is definitely more delicious. And all this for 290 yen is too cheap! However, some of the toppings seemed a bit expensive. It seems wise to choose toppings carefully. And the next day... I also went to Hakataya Nishijin store. (2021.11.11)

Recently, ramen has become so expensive that it's not as easy to say, "Let's just grab some ramen." It's not uncommon for ramen to cost over 1000 yen, and in some cases, a set meal with rice and miso soup can be more affordable. In this situation, this place offers ramen for only 290 yen. I visited to show my support. You purchase your meal from a ticket vending machine outside the shop, and then it's self-service for seating, water, and cleaning up. The table is equipped with sesame seeds, pepper, pickled ginger, garlic, and extra sauce. You can also add pickled vegetables for an additional cost. The noodles are straight and thin, just like in Hakata. I ordered mine firm, but extra firm might have been even better. This is a matter of preference. The soup is lightly flavored, so if you're expecting a rich, creamy tonkotsu broth, you might find it a bit lacking. However, this ramen is in a category of its own. I was told they are open 24 hours, which is impressive considering factors like labor costs. It shows that with effort, it can be done.

Overall (5-point scale, 5 items average) 3.4 → Morning ramen at 10 am. Dining alone. Choose the firmness. Taste/Quality 3 → A great value dish with chashu and green onions. Red pickled ginger and green onions are available on the table. I wanted a bit more punch in the soup, so I added extra sauce for the extra noodles. Service 4 → Open 24 hours Cleanliness 2 → Water droplets are dripping from the ceiling air conditioning vent... I think they will repair it soon... Atmosphere 3 Cost performance 5 → Surprisingly, tonkotsu ramen is only 290 yen (as of August 2023) Branches | Kamaage Udon Komugiya | Udon Kuroda Han | Hakata Ramen Hakata-ya | Hakata Ramen Zen | Soba noodles Gen

I stayed near Nakasu Kawabata for a homecoming trip and had been eyeing this place since the day before, thinking "I want to have morning ramen." I arrived at the restaurant after taking a morning bath around 7:30 AM. It's amazing that they are open 24 hours a day. Even at this time, there were surprisingly quite a few customers. The ramen was delicious! However, personally, I prefer a stronger pork bone flavor, so I found it a bit lacking to be honest. But considering you can eat a bowl for ¥290, I shouldn't be picky. It's good to have it after drinking alcohol or taking a bath.

"Hakataya" in Nakasu Kawabata, Fukuoka, is a popular restaurant known for its tonkotsu ramen priced at 290 yen, which is a bargain. The interior of the restaurant has been renovated, and they now have table seating as well. Since the udon shop I originally planned to visit was closed, I decided to try their morning ramen. I purchased the 290 yen ramen with firm noodles and a boiled egg for an additional 50 yen from the ticket machine. It was around 8:30 am on a weekday, and the restaurant was about half full. The light tonkotsu ramen was delicious. I think the efforts put into offering this quality at such a low price are remarkable."

After a little over a year, I went back to Hakata Ramen Kawabata. Even before entering the store, I noticed that something was different, and it turns out they had changed the layout and became a self-service restaurant. Also, I was planning to have the gyoza set meal but it was no longer available. However, the ramen was still priced at 290 yen. Even with an extra serving of noodles for 130 yen and a glass of draft beer, the total bill was less than a thousand yen. This affordability is impressive considering the high cost of living. The taste of the ramen remained unchanged and delicious.

Today, I visited a Hakata ramen restaurant. I decided to try it out since I was nearby. The interior has both counter seats and table seats, with not too many seats overall. It may get crowded depending on the time. It seems like they recently renovated, as the interior has a new feel to it. Customers ranged from individuals to groups. Due to the location, a variety of people were visiting. The system involves purchasing a food ticket first. You hand the ticket to the counter and wait for your order. Everything from receiving to cleaning up is self-service, which is quite unique. I ordered the "Hakata Ramen Barikata" with a seasoned egg, as it was recommended on the top left of the ticket machine. As for the taste, the soup is light but still flavorful. The seasoned egg had a good taste to it. Extra noodles are served separately. If you're used to Kanto-style tonkotsu ramen, you might find this one lighter, but Hakata and Nagahama-style tonkotsu ramen are known for their light and flavorful soup, so knowing that beforehand might help avoid any surprises. Overall, I enjoyed my meal. Thank you for the delicious food.

On the second day of my Fukuoka trip, I visited a ramen shop around 4:00 PM with leftover alcohol from the previous night. It was conveniently located near the station, so I could easily avoid the scorching summer sun by taking the underground passage and walking through the arcade shopping street. The place had a high cost-performance ratio, and I couldn't resist adding boiled eggs and wood ear mushrooms to my order. I chose extra firm noodles, which arrived quickly and were delicious. I finished my meal quickly but still felt a bit hungry, so I followed others' lead and bought a ticket for an extra serving of noodles. I adjusted the soup to my liking by adding more flavor and toppings like pickled ginger and garlic. I left the shop feeling satisfied but also tempted by other dangerous-looking eateries nearby.

I woke up at a capsule hotel in Nakasu and had some time before heading to the airport, so I decided to have an early lunch at "Hakataya". They serve a bowl of Hakata ramen for only 290 yen, which is probably the cheapest in the Nakasu area. I added spicy pickled mustard greens and kikurage mushrooms as toppings. The thin pork bone soup had a clear taste. Adding the spicy pickled mustard greens gave it a slightly stronger flavor. The crunchy texture of the kikurage mushrooms was enjoyable, and I also tried changing the taste by adding red pickled ginger and sesame seeds. It was a perfect bowl for breakfast the next morning after drinking.

This is a ramen chain in Fukuoka that offers ramen for 290 yen in the midst of high prices, which is amazing. I am grateful. The ramen is delicious with a light tonkotsu flavor. I visited the Hakata Kawabata branch after a long time and the store had been renovated, so the atmosphere had changed. I understand that labor costs are tough. I will definitely visit again when I come back to my hometown.

I visited Hakataya Kawabata store on August 13, 2023 (Sunday). Located in the middle of Nakasu Kawabata shopping street, this recently renovated restaurant offers a super affordable ramen for only 290 yen. They also have a ramen and rice set for under 500 yen. I decided to try their chicken tempura set for 580 yen. The portion was generous, with three pieces of chicken tempura and a good serving of rice. The soup had a rich pork bone flavor and the noodles were thin and straight. Overall, it was a satisfying and affordable meal. The restaurant is self-service, and they provide condiments like sesame, pickled ginger, and grated garlic. The soup tasted even better than before. I would recommend trying the extra firm noodles next time. It was a great meal at a great price. The store is located at 9-151 Kamikawabata-cho, Hakata-ku, Fukuoka City. They are open every day.

On a Sunday afternoon when I was feeling a bit hungry, I strolled around the Kawabata shopping street and stumbled upon Hakara. Since I still had some time before my appointment, I decided to visit the shop. Hakara has a unique system where you purchase a food ticket outside the shop. This time, I bought the Hakata Ramen with firm noodles (¥290) and added some wood ear mushrooms (¥50). I noticed that the price for an extra serving of noodles had gone up from ¥100 to ¥130, which was a bit surprising. However, considering that a bowl of ramen costs only ¥290, it's still a great deal. The shop has tables and a long counter, and you serve yourself by picking up your ramen. It only took about 3 minutes after ordering for my name to be called. I added some sesame seeds and red ginger to my ramen and enjoyed my meal. Since this area attracts a lot of tourists, it can be a bit stressful for locals, so it's something to keep in mind when visiting. This time, there was a bit of a delay in the service due to communication between foreign customers and staff. Thank you for the meal.

I heard about a 290 yen ramen and wondered what it would be like, but it turned out to be a delicious Hakata ramen with thin noodles. It was topped with plenty of sesame seeds. I was impressed that they have kept the price at 290 yen for so long during this time of year.

If you're looking for a satisfying bowl of ramen after drinking, Hakata-ya is the place to go! I was planning to go to the original Nagahama-ya across the street, but it had a long line, so I decided to try Hakata-ya for the first time. Despite the hot summer night, I was completely satisfied with my choice. In these times, you might think 290 yen is too cheap, but the ramen was surprisingly delicious! It was a bit salty, but that made it the perfect way to end a night of drinking. If you're staying around Canal City and Nakasu Kawabata, it's worth stopping by Hakata-ya!

First visit. Came after a drinking party. The turnover rate is very high, so we were able to be seated right away. The ramen with chashu was only 290 yen. I was surprised by the quality at this price. It exceeded my expectations by far, so I would like to visit again. Thank you for the meal.

The cost performance of Barikata 290 is excellent! It has a local feel that goes beyond its cost performance. Fukuoka is a tourist destination with many tourist-oriented restaurants, but it was great to try a local ramen that is not featured in tourist guides. This is the best place for a satisfying meal in Nakasu after a night of drinking. Thank you for the meal.

Location is Nakasu Kawabata in Fukuoka. A ramen shop that is open 24 hours, which you can see here and there in Fukuoka. It's valuable and nice to have a place where you can eat anytime, even in the morning or late at night. And the price is surprisingly cheap at 290 yen. The light tonkotsu soup is refreshing. It's a bit thin as it is, so you can adjust it with the ramen sauce on the table. Please order the noodles extra firm. Even with extra firm, they are slightly hard. Toppings are green onions and chashu. This amount is just right for this price. The portion is not too large or too small, making it a good choice for a final bowl of ramen. Thank you for the meal.

We were discussing what to have as a finishing touch after drinking in Nakasu, and we were taken to this place. It seems like a place that would be hard to find without being a local. Surprisingly, the ramen here is only 290 yen, which is a great deal. It feels like it's been a while since I've seen ramen in the 200 yen range. We bought meal tickets and handed them over at the counter, then picked up our ramen when it was ready. The interior of the shop is clean and tidy. The ramen has arrived. You can add red pickled ginger, sesame seeds, and grated garlic to your liking. The soup is a creamy tonkotsu broth. The taste of the ramen is like fast food, but it might taste quite delicious after drinking. It was a fun experience.

I was rejected by all the restaurants I wanted to go to... (I didn't know that many places in Hakata are closed on Sundays). I was drawn in by the shocking cheap price of 290 yen for a bowl of ramen and decided to enter. I bought a food ticket and added a seasoned egg and green onions as toppings. It's partially self-service, and if you order it extra firm, the ramen is served quite quickly. The ramen felt a little softer even when ordered extra firm, but it was still good. There were plenty of green onions and the seasoned egg was delicious too! The soup was not too rich, but it had a lot of flavor and was very tasty. I can't believe you can get a bowl of ramen for only 290 yen. There are also sesame seeds and other seasonings on the table, which is nice. I will definitely visit again when I go to Hakata next time. Thank you for the meal!

It's no secret that the 290 yen ramen is a popular choice. Recently, they have switched to a ticket system, giving it more of a chain restaurant feel. However, the taste remains delicious, and you can still feel the Fukuoka vibe. I always find myself torn between this place and MotoNaga across the street, but the ramen at Hakataya always wins out!笑
