A new oil ramen shop in Akasaka that has been open for about half a year but already has many repeat customers. They have a variety of seasonings and toppings for customization, making it fun and never boring. The staff is very friendly and attentive, making the dining experience pleasant. Highly recommended!元祖油堂 Akasaka Store 03-5544-8279 Tokyo, Minato-ku, Akasaka 3-13-6 #OriginalOilDo #Ramen #ramennoodles #dippingnoodles #akasaka #AkasakaGourmet #TokyoGourmet #noodles #noodleactivity #noodlevarieties #noodlestagram #noodlegrammer #dippingnoodlesdepartment #dippingnoodleslover #dippingnoodlesfan #wanttoconnectwithdippingnoodleslovers #wanttoconnectwithnoodlelovers #wanttoconnectwithramenlovers #wanttoconnectwithpeoplewholikegoodfood

The interior of the restaurant is very beautiful, with a row of condiments lined up on the table. The staff are very polite and provide detailed explanations, escorting each customer to their table. I ordered the special with all toppings, mixed it all up. The cheese was thick and did a great job. I added chili oil, garlic, onions, and seaweed as I ate. Finally, I poured in the finishing soup in front of me. It was incredibly delicious.

At Akasaka Street, I came back here looking for cold noodles. This time, I ordered the Oil Soba Omori with Parmesan Cheese topping for 1,130 yen. I poured myself some black oolong tea at the self-service counter and took a seat at the counter. Since the Omori noodles take some time to cook, I waited for a little over five minutes. The Oil Soba Omori with Parmesan Cheese topping arrived, and after mixing it well, I dug in. The flavors were a mix of strong saltiness and mild taste. I mixed it thoroughly again and finally got the right balance. The richness from the egg yolk and Parmesan cheese made it delicious. Adding sesame seeds and seaweed for flavor variation made it even better. Lastly, I added some vinegar for a refreshing finish. I finished every last bit and left with a polite "Thank you very much." This place is definitely worth visiting regularly.

I visited the restaurant at 12:40, it was just full and I had to wait 5 minutes to be seated. I ordered the spicy miso oil soba noodles with option B, and added extra rice. The payment system allowed for various types of payments. There were various condiments on the table such as sesame seeds, Cajun seasoning, curry powder, shichimi pepper, nori seaweed, black pepper, fish powder, kaeshi sauce, chili oil, vinegar, garlic, onion, pickled ginger, and finishing soup. The medium-thick noodles were delicious with a rich broth. There were plenty of options for flavor customization and I was very satisfied.

You can purchase food tickets at the ticket vending machine. Various cashless payments are accepted. Aprons are provided. Instead of regular water, you can help yourself to detox water or black oolong tea. There are plenty of spices for flavor variation. You can choose from 3 types of toppings. The noodle portion is the same price, even for extra large. The broth goes well with the smooth noodles. It's great that you can customize your meal to your liking.

I don't really like oil soba or mazesoba. I get tired of the monotonous taste. What's the point of having flavor-changing items if the taste gets boring? And since there's no soup, I feel like I'm missing out. Many customers seem to only care about the portion size, not the quality. But this place completely changed my perception. It's delicious, beautiful, and the service is great. I left fully satisfied with the finishing soup. I usually don't go to oil soba restaurants, but I will definitely come back here!

Before going to see a live performance, I stopped by this restaurant for a quick bite. I ordered the oil soba at the entrance ticket machine for 800 yen. You can choose the size up to 300g for the same price, so I chose the "special size". The topping corner in front of the counter is well stocked, so even with 300g of noodles, you won't get tired of it. Mix the noodles with the sauce at the bottom of the bowl and sprinkle various toppings on top like seasoning. The chopped onions are also good. For the finishing touch, you can order rice separately and mix it with the leftover sauce, or you can lightly dilute it with the soup on the counter and drink it all up. There are three types of drinks available for self-service, with black oolong tea being the most popular. The customer service was also impressive, and I left the restaurant thinking it was quite good. Thank you for the meal.

It's so hot and humid around Akasaka that you feel like screaming "Sauna"! I instantly became a fan of this place upon my first visit. Upon revisiting, I was greeted with the same bright and non-manual-like customer service. I ordered the Abura Soba with Toppings A @ 910 yen, with a free upsize, and enjoyed a black oolong tea while waiting. In about 5 minutes, the Abura Soba with Toppings A arrived! It comes with egg yolk and Parmesan cheese, which gives it an Italian vibe. Unlike Toppings B from my previous visit, this one didn't have extra meat, so it was enjoyed with the cheese and sauce. I found it slightly salty, so I had a refill of black oolong tea. Surprisingly, the nori seaweed added a nice touch to the flavor. I easily finished the large portion and refreshed my throat with the self-service black oolong tea and detox water. With a cheerful "Thank you very much", I left feeling satisfied both in my stomach and in my mood. Next time, I might try Toppings B with extra mayo!

This is a popular "Abura Soba" (oil noodles) restaurant located in Akasaka San-chome. Customers can enjoy their own favorite "Abura Soba" by choosing toppings and condiments. It is well-loved by those working nearby, with lines forming inside during lunchtime. Opened in February 2023, this restaurant is operated by Gift Holdings Co., Ltd., which also manages Machida Shoten and Butayama, among others. They currently have 9 stores in the Kanto region. Located about 2 minutes from Akasaka Station Exit 2, along Akasaka Street next to Komoro Soba. I visited during lunchtime. The menu is as follows (prices include tax): Regular (150g), Large (225g), Extra Large (300g) at the same price. □ Abura Soba (780 yen) + Topping A (Parmesan cheese, egg yolk: 910 yen) + Topping B (extra meat, fried onions, egg yolk: 1,030 yen) + Topping C (extra meat, Parmesan cheese, fried onions, egg yolk: 1,130 yen) □ Spicy Miso Abura Soba (add 100 yen to the above Abura Soba prices) □ Various toppings (50 yen~) □ Extra rice (100 yen) The interior has a deep layout with an L-shaped counter seating for 14 people. Since it was full, I waited behind the seats following the staff's guidance. Approximately 12 minutes later, I was seated. The service was attentive and very pleasant. Self-service drinks include 3 types: Detox water, black oolong tea, and rooibos tea. I chose black oolong tea, which seemed to go well with the Abura Soba. The condiments available on the table were fish powder, black pepper, seaweed, shichimi chili pepper, curry powder, cajun, and sesame. Also, kaeshi, vinegar, chili oil, grated garlic, chopped green onions, and pickled ginger. The following was ordered and served after 3 minutes of seating: ● Abura Soba + Topping A (Parmesan cheese, egg yolk) (910 yen) Toppings included chopped chashu, green onions, menma, and Topping A (Parmesan cheese, egg yolk). The sauce was hidden underneath. Now, let's mix it well before tasting! The medium-thick curly noodles were a blend of Chinese noodle flour and pasta flour, specifically for Abura Soba. They mixed well with the sauce, and the chewy texture was to my liking. Next, I added chopped green onions and pickled ginger, then added vinegar and chili oil for a refreshing aftertaste. Finally, I sprinkled fish powder from the table to change the flavor and finished it all. The leftover sauce was used to make soup. Despite being called "oil noodles," it didn't feel greasy, and it turned out to be even tastier than expected. The portion (regular 150g) was just right. The total stay time was approximately 27 minutes, including a 12-minute wait and 15 minutes at the table. The turnover was fast, making it a place I'd like to include in my lunch rotation. I wonder what combination I'll try next time?

This is a time difference post. I visited alone around 1 pm on a weekday. I was able to enter without waiting, but it always seemed to be full enough that there was no line, with a younger clientele. I chose the recommended topping A in a large size. During the 5 to 10 minutes of waiting time, I visualize while looking at the flavor-changing items. There are several types of tea and cold drinks available, so you can choose according to your preference, which is nice. People who like to customize will love it.

Oil soba for 770 yen and menma for 50 yen were ordered. It's nice that drinks like detox water are all-you-can-drink. The interior of the restaurant is clean and welcoming for women. There are many toppings available at the counter for flavor customization. The oil soba is relatively light and easy to eat. It's fun to use toppings to create your own preferred taste. The staff's customer service is excellent, and I would like to visit again.

Located near Akasaka Station, this restaurant seems to be part of a chain as I have seen it somewhere else before. Ramen restaurants often have mediocre customer service, but I was surprised by how good the service was at this place. The noodles in the oil soba were average, but I appreciated the variety of free condiments for flavor customization. This definitely adds to the overall experience. I would definitely want to come back to this restaurant.

I recently visited a restaurant that always has a line during lunchtime, which I had been curious about for a while. I decided to go during a quiet time in the evening of Golden Week. I ordered the spicy miso oil ramen, with a large portion. They offered a free upgrade to an extra-large portion, but since it was my first time, I went with the large size. When I sat down, I was amazed by the variety of condiments available - Cajun, curry powder, seaweed, sesame seeds, shichimi, fish powder, and more. It was overwhelming to choose which ones to use. They also had onions, garlic, pickled ginger, vinegar, and chili oil as standard toppings. What surprised me next was the self-service drink station. In addition to water, they had detox drinks, jasmine tea, and black oolong tea. I was spoiled for choice. The ramen arrived quickly, and it looked delicious with the shining yellow egg. I was already convinced it would be tasty. I mixed it all up and took a bite without adding anything. The cheese aroma was strong, and the spiciness was not overpowering. It had a Japanese-style carbonara vibe. The noodles were light even in the large portion, so it was easy to eat. I enjoyed adding onions, vinegar, chili oil, fish powder, and Cajun spice one by one. Cajun spice is a spicy seasoning like the one used in Cajun chicken. It's similar to the spice on the Arrosticini at Saizeriya. I finished it off with the soup quickly. With the variety of condiments, I could easily go for an extra-large portion next time. I will definitely be back.

First, a cute lady at the storefront greeted me with a cheerful "I can seat you right away!" Drink options included detox water, black oolong tea, and jasmine tea, all you can drink! I ordered the oil noodles and extra rice. The noodles were made with pasta flour, making them easy to eat! After taking a few bites, I added vinegar and chili oil. Delicious! Then I added pickled ginger, chopped onions, and chopped garlic! There were plenty of condiments to create your own flavor. To finish, I mixed the soup and extra rice together to eat it like ochazuke! The soup was so flavorful that it was delicious on its own. To top it off, the staff said, "Thank you! Good luck with your work in the afternoon!" The cost performance, taste, and customer service were all excellent.

I was planning to have a quick lunch at a soba restaurant without much thought, but ended up stopping in front of the sign for Yudou, the originator of the famous Handmade Oil Soba. I was escorted inside by a friendly staff member and ended up ordering the Oil Soba B set for 1,030 yen (with extra meat, fried onions, and egg yolk) in a large size. The noodles were the same price up to extra-large. Although water was self-service, there were options for drinks like Rooibos tea, black oolong tea, and black tea, so I chose black oolong tea. I found this service to be very appreciated. After about 10 minutes of waiting anxiously, my bowl arrived. However, the contents of the bowl seemed to be the Parmesan cheese-included C set that costs 1,130 yen. It was a mistake, but they offered it to me anyway, and I gladly accepted. I was advised to mix it well before eating, but I prefer to gradually mix the noodles from the bottom up, savoring the process. By eating this way, the sauce called "kaeshi" at this restaurant harmonized well with the noodles, giving me a great impression at the beginning. The noodles themselves were delicious. However, the fried onions started to overpower the dish. The excessive amount and strong flavor affected the overall taste by absorbing the sauce and oil. I tried adding more sauce and vinegar, but it was a big mistake. The artificial seasoning became too strong. Even though I was enjoying it a moment ago, it suddenly became difficult to eat. If I visit again, I will probably only add a raw egg as a topping. I wasn't a fan of the chashu either. Of course, I will never add extra sauce again. The staff even saw me off outside, showing their well-organized hospitality. The overall hospitality at this restaurant is quite high.

Original Oil Hall Akasaka Branch, it's a hangover meal. I noticed a new restaurant opening along the street near Akasaka Mitsuke, TBS. I was happy to see it was "Original Oil Hall," a place specializing in oil soba. I had always associated oil soba with the one near the station, so this was a pleasant surprise! I thought it would be crowded since it had just opened, so I arrived around 14:30 to avoid the rush. Even then, it was still quite busy. Original Oil Hall, the origin of oil soba, I presume. I don't think there's an original oil soba place, so this must be it. Highlighted Menu Items: - Spicy Miso Oil Soba 880 yen - Spicy Miso Oil Soba A Set 1010 yen - Spicy Miso Oil Soba B Set 1130 yen - Spicy Miso Oil Soba C Set 1230 yen You purchase your meal ticket from the digital ticket machine inside. They offer regular, large, and extra-large noodle sizes, all for the same price. I opted for the large size and was even suggested by the staff to go for the extra-large size, which was free. I must have looked like I could handle it. Well, it's only 300g, similar to Jiro-style portions, so it's doable! This time, I chose the Spicy Miso Oil Soba C Set. Spicy Miso Oil Soba C Set: While waiting for the oil soba, I checked out the toppings. The variety was impressive! Sesame seeds, Cajun seasoning, curry powder, shichimi, nori, black pepper, fish powder—all unlimited. There were also garlic, onions, and pickled ginger, all unlimited. Isn't garlic and onions usually an extra charge elsewhere? This is a game-changer! The bowl arrived with a generous amount of toppings, making the noodles invisible. This sight alone justifies the price of 1230 yen. I mixed it all up quickly while it was still warm to prevent it from getting too firm. The noodles were outstanding! They were chewy and had a unique texture due to a mix of Chinese and pasta flour. The flavor and texture were excellent. I added plenty of garlic and onions, then doused it with vinegar. The combination of flavors was mind-blowing. The onions and garlic provided freshness, while the cheese and chashu added richness, all tied together by the generous amount of vinegar. It was unbelievably delicious! What a satisfying meal! Topping-loaded oil soba is already a winner, but the noodles were also fantastic. The set price may seem a bit high, but considering the contents, it's actually a steal. This is what I've been waiting for. I finished by pouring the remaining soup from the counter into the bowl and enjoying every last bite with the toppings. I will definitely be returning here!

The regular, large, and extra-large portions all cost the same! The amount of noodles is about double, which is amazing. Lunchtime seems busy. The prices start at 710 yen for smaller portions, which is also nice. There are plenty of condiments available, so you can enjoy the meal until the end without getting tired of it. The original seasoning is a sweet sauce, so chili oil is a must.

I arrived at the restaurant at noon. There was a small line, but I was able to get inside in about 15 minutes. I ordered the cheese-topped oil noodles. It was my first time trying cheese in it, and it was very delicious and mild. Towards the end, I added vinegar and chili oil for a change in taste, but personally, I felt it didn't go well with the cheese, and it tasted better before adding them.

Ramen shop owners always seem to have a strong and stubborn aura, but this shop's customer service is different. The staff are very polite and even go as far as to say things like "Thank you for your hard work, have a safe trip home" when you leave. The food is also good, especially the oil noodles which you can customize with various toppings like vinegar, chili oil, onions, garlic, and curry powder. The portion sizes are generous, so be careful when ordering extra. I was pleasantly surprised by the service and food quality. I will definitely be coming back. Thank you for the meal!
