Arrived at 12:30 on a weekday. There were 2 people ahead of me. I ordered the Wonton Shoyu Ramen for 950 yen. The beautiful rare chashu and thin noodles looked delicious. When I tasted the soup, I could strongly feel the clear umami of bonito and dried fish, followed by the rich flavor of chicken broth with a strong taste of animal stock. The soy sauce seasoning and scallion oil matched the soup well and tasted delicious. The noodles were medium-thin with a low water content, giving a chewy texture and a nice wheat flavor when bitten into. I enjoyed the combination of the soup, scallion oil, and noodles, which suited my taste perfectly. The rare chashu was especially delicious, with a soft texture unique to rare chashu and a direct taste of the meat's umami. Although there are many delicious ramen shops in Hachioji, this one is my favorite. The price of 950 yen also offers great value. I look forward to trying the Chashu Shio Ramen next time. Thank you for the meal!

Recommended by someone from Hachioji. The taste and service were good. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful. The atmosphere is welcoming for women dining alone. I arrived around 1 PM on the weekend and was able to enter without waiting in line. Some people had to wait a bit, but the turnover rate seemed good so the wait wasn't too long. The Special Soy Sauce Ramen for 1000 yen was light yet flavorful with a rich broth. The noodles are straight and delicious when mixed with the soup. The toppings like chashu and seasoned egg were also tasty. I'm curious about the Salt Ramen, so I want to visit again.

The lingering summer heat made it tough to enjoy ramen in the hot interior of the restaurant in September. The toppings were carefully selected, with the chashu being particularly delicious with a light flavor. While the soy sauce ramen wasn't particularly memorable, it was tasty. However, it was hard to fully appreciate the flavors due to the heat. The customers inside seemed to be regulars, chatting happily with the staff. The staff themselves were sweating, so it was clear that everyone was feeling the heat.

It takes about 3-4 minutes on foot from Keio Hachioji Station. I visited around 14:00, after the lunch rush, and there were about 6 customers ahead of me. However, the turnover was fast, so I was able to enter the restaurant in about 20 minutes! There is no parking lot for cars, but many customers on bicycles or motorcycles were parked in front of the store. The interior of the store has only a counter with 12 seats. After buying a meal ticket, a cheerful staff member will guide you to an available seat. I ordered the classic special soy sauce ramen and menma. The rice bowl dishes looked delicious, but they were sold out on that day, so I gave up. I had imagined a clear soy sauce-based taste, but the soup had a strong umami from the oil. The wonton in the special ramen enhanced the Chinese flavor. It was very delicious.

I went to the restaurant around 1:30 on a weekday and ordered the special soy sauce ramen for 1000 yen. The restaurant was just starting to get busy with about 10 people waiting in line right after I entered. The interior was clean and the service was polite. The soup was very sweet with a layer of onion oil on top, giving off a strong aroma of oil but not overpowering the taste. The noodles were thin and straight, perfectly coated in oil. The menma (bamboo shoots) were thick and square, with a mellow yet rich flavor that complemented the soup well. The chashu (sliced pork) was tender and flavorful without any unpleasant smell. The egg was cooked through but still soft, with a slightly runny yolk. The wonton had a strong flavor of ginger and sauce, almost like miso, making a big impression. Overall, getting all this for just a thousand yen was a great deal!

When I was working in Hachioji, there was a shop that I used to visit regularly. They served a special soy sauce ramen with clear broth, beautiful noodles, and well-balanced toppings. Even on weekdays, there would be a line forming outside the shop. They don't have a parking lot, so customers would have to park at a nearby coin parking. I remembered how I used to go there once a week when they first opened. After trying a similar ramen in Utsunomiya, I suddenly had a strong craving for it again.

I visited this place in Hachioji while shopping, where I had been wanting to go for a long time. I arrived around 11:30 and thought I might have to wait in line, but there were only 5 customers ahead of me so I was seated immediately. However, more customers started coming in and by the time my ramen arrived, there were about 5 people waiting outside. I hesitated before ordering, but ended up getting the special soy sauce ramen with extra noodles. Later, I realized they had a "lunch rice" option with diced chashu and salt dressing for only 200 yen... I should have ordered that. The ramen arrived in less than 10 minutes and looked very appetizing. The soup had a clear oil layer on top, which kept it hot. The soy sauce flavor was sharp and delicious. The noodles were firm and had a smooth texture. The special ramen came with 2 slices of slow-cooked chashu, 3 wontons, 1 flavored egg, thick menma, and green onions. For 1000 yen, the generous toppings of chashu, wontons, and flavored egg made it a great deal. I finished every last bit.

Hachioji, a place I rarely visit, about a 10-minute walk from the station through an underground passage, and even right after opening there's already a line here! Why have ramen on a hot day? Because they have a special cold ramen that you can only get now. First, the beautiful presentation: neatly arranged noodles, pink-colored chashu, purple onions, finely sliced shiso leaves, and seaweed - all rare for ramen! The soup is a clear and delicious light salt broth with a strong chicken base and hints of bonito flakes and kelp. The noodles are firm with a refreshing chewiness, accompanied by crunchy green onions and the fragrant taste of shiso leaves. The chashu is tender and moist from low-temperature cooking. On a hot day, the cold ramen is twice as delicious... I wish it was closer so I could come back often. Thank you for the treat!

I arrived at the store before 11 am and there were already 3 people lined up. I ordered the special soy sauce ramen for 1000 yen. It had a refined and light taste, with each ingredient prepared carefully. The chashu was rare and tender, delicious! The thick menma was delicious! The wonton was delicious! The seasoned egg was delicious! The interior of the restaurant was clean and elegant. The broth had no unpleasant smell, it was clear and delicious! The way the noodles were folded was done with care! Thank you for the delicious meal!

I received a special soy sauce ramen!!! The beauty of the noodles shows the attention to detail in every aspect. The soup, based on chicken, is sure to be finished completely! The noodles are straight and just the right length, with a delicious wheat flavor. The chashu is cooked at low temperature, with a perfect amount of saltiness. The bamboo shoots are diced, providing a satisfying crunch and a slightly sweet seasoning. The wonton with meat goes perfectly with the soup. Lastly, the seasoned egg is firm on the outside and soft on the inside, with the perfect amount of saltiness! I will definitely visit again♪

I visited a ramen shop that is one of the top 100 ramen shops. It is located a short walk from hachioji station. There was a wait of about 10 people at 8 pm on a weekday. After waiting for about 20 minutes, I was able to enter the shop. The interior of the shop has a bright lighting and a clean atmosphere. The staff's polite customer service was impressive and made me feel comfortable. I ordered the special soy sauce ramen for 1,000 yen. First, I took a sip of the soup. The deep richness of the soy sauce permeates through. The aftertaste is not sharp, but rather fragrant and mellow. The soup was elegant and delicious. The special ramen includes 2 slices of chashu, 3 wontons, and 1 flavored egg. The chashu was moist and tender, with a sweet fatty flavor. The menma had a sweetness that increased as you chewed, adding depth to the flavorful soup. The wontons were juicy with a rich taste. The noodles were medium-thick straight noodles with a good texture and flavor. The generous toppings made the ramen satisfying. I thought it was a good value for 1,000 yen. The soup was so delicious that I drank it all! I am satisfied to have tried the ramen I was curious about.

"Kozuma" located at Hachioji Station. The owner is the son of the creator of "Hachioji Ramen" called "Chukasoba Goemon". He trained at "Shibazaki Tei" in Tsutsujigaoka, opened "Ishikawaya" in Kokuryo, and now runs this current shop. The special ramen is only 1,000 yen, which is a great deal in Tokyo! The noodles are beautifully arranged with brown soy sauce, showing the influence of his mentor, "Shibazaki Tei". The soup is a clear soy sauce broth that starts sweet and then develops a rich and bitter umami flavor. The noodles are medium thickness straight noodles that maintain a clear separation in the soup, providing a pleasant texture. The chashu is cooked rare at low temperatures, similar to roast beef in tenderness. This ramen is of very high quality and the cost performance is excellent! Thank you for the meal!

Next to a construction site, the shaking was quite strong, but thanks to the consideration of the staff, I felt safe. I had heard good things about this ramen place before, and it did not disappoint. The soup was refreshing, the noodles were just the right length, and the chashu was tender and flavorful. I finished every last bite. It was during lunchtime, so it was a bit rushed and I couldn't fully relax, which was a shame.

One of the popular ramen shops in Hachioji, ranked high in the ramen top 100 on Tabelog. Today, there was a line of 12 people waiting. The owner, who has trained at Shibazaki-tei, creates a visually appealing ramen with well-arranged noodles that stimulate the appetite. The soup has elements of both animal and seafood broth, resulting in a light and elegant clear soy sauce soup that you can easily drink up. The noodles are light, low-hydrated, medium-thin straight noodles with a smooth and slurpable texture, although the slightly crunchy texture from the low hydration may not perfectly match the light soup. The toppings, including chashu, seasoned egg, and wonton, are all delicious and of high quality. The fact that the special ramen with all toppings is priced at 1000 yen is also a popular secret due to its high cost performance.

Menemi Koutoma-san @ Hachioji City Myojin-cho Summer limited cold salt ramen set ¥1000 Menma ¥200 I visited to try the summer limited edition! Perfect for replenishing salt, the gentle taste of the salt soup is irresistible. The noodles with a springy texture are delicious and go down smoothly. The aroma of the seaweed is also wonderful. The crunchy menma is the best. I finished by pouring the remaining soup over rice for a salted rice dish. Thank you for the delicious experience of enjoying the summer limited edition.

Special Soy Sauce Ramen 1000 yen Mayo Char-don 350 yen This time, I visited the popular restaurant "Men War Takumi" run by the son of the famous shop "Chuka Soba Goemon" in Nishi-Hachioji! Recently, due to the soaring prices of ingredients, ramen shops have had to raise their prices, and in Tokyo, ramen shops typically charge between 800 and 1000 yen per bowl, with special toppings costing around 1500 yen. However, this shop offers a bowl of ramen for only 700 yen, and even with special toppings, it only costs 1000 yen. It's really a great deal. Now, let's talk about the ramen. First, the soup. The soup is made from a base of pork and chicken, combined with seafood such as shrimp and clams, and topped with aromatic oil. The harmonious blend of these ingredients creates a rich and delicious soup that makes you want to keep drinking it. Next, the noodles. The noodles are medium-thin straight noodles with a firm and chewy texture. They not only have a good bite but also a strong wheat aroma, making them very delicious and a perfect match for the soup. The green onion adds a nice touch as well. Moving on to the toppings. The bamboo shoots are thick and large, soaking up a sweet broth and offering a high-quality flavor. I always believe that a shop that pays attention to even the bamboo shoots is a good shop. The wonton is firm and flavorful, with a powerful broth that spreads its umami in all directions when you take a bite. The thinly sliced low-temperature cooked pork is tender and melts in your mouth, despite looking like the trendy low-temperature cooked pork. The seasoned egg is perfectly runny with a strong yolk flavor. Lastly, the Mayo Char-don is a rice bowl topped with the same pork as the ramen, covered in a generous amount of mayonnaise and sweet sauce. The acidity of the mayonnaise balances out the richness of the pork and sauce, making it devilishly delicious and easy to devour. I thought they might be cutting corners due to the low prices, but I was completely wrong. This shop specializes in soy sauce ramen and salt ramen, and I would love to try their salt ramen next, as I believe the seafood broth and salt seasoning would be a great combination.

I visited around 8:00 pm and thought it would be empty at night, but it was almost full. I was able to find a seat as people were leaving. I ordered the special salt ramen with rare chashu, menma, and seasoned egg. The soup had a hint of ginger and the thin noodles matched well with it. It was different from the usual salt ramen and very delicious. It was so good that I wanted to try their soy sauce ramen next time to compare the difference.

"Special Soy Sauce Ramen" for 1,000 yen. A popular restaurant that has been recognized as one of the top 100 on Tabelog and won the TRY Ramen of the Year award. There is always a line outside, but I was lucky enough to get in. The ingredients were all delicious, and I think it's a great value for the price.

【Ramen Wanderlust】Menemi Kozuma @ Hachioji Special Soy Sauce Ramen ¥1,000 I stopped by #MenemiKozuma in Hachioji while running errands in the area. They only serve lunch on weekends and holidays from 11am to 4pm, but surprisingly it was quite crowded even after 3pm. It was my first time there, so I ordered their signature dish, the Special Soy Sauce Ramen. The special version comes with 2 slices of chashu, 3 wontons, and 1 seasoned egg as additional toppings. The regular Soy Sauce Ramen without extra toppings is priced at a reasonable ¥700. The clear, brownish broth made from blending chicken and bonito stock with soy sauce was delicious. The thin slices of chashu, cooked at low temperatures, wrapped around the medium-thick straight noodles made every bite even more enjoyable. Unfortunately, they had run out of rice dishes by the time I arrived late, so I recommend going a bit earlier next time. ☝️
