Tadokoro Shoten — Restaurant in Chiba

Nestled in the heart of Chiba, Tadokoro Shoten offers an authentic ramen experience that warms the soul and satisfies every craving. This cozy ramen shop exudes charm, with a welcoming atmosphere and a sense of tradition that sets the stage for a memorable meal.

We began with the Gyoza and Steamed Rice Combo, which proved to be an excellent appetizer. The gyoza were perfectly pan-fried to achieve a crispy golden exterior while maintaining a juicy, flavorful filling. Paired with a bowl of fluffy steamed rice, it was the ideal way to whet our appetites.

For the main event, we indulged in their signature ramen offerings. The Spicy Miso Ramen was a flavor-packed delight. The rich, umami-filled broth carried a satisfying kick, perfectly balanced by tender noodles that soaked up the spicy miso goodness. The toppings, including perfectly cooked chashu, a soft-boiled egg, and a sprinkle of green onions, elevated the dish to pure perfection.

The Roasted Pork Ramen was equally spectacular, offering a slightly milder yet deeply satisfying flavor profile. The roasted pork was melt-in-your-mouth tender, with a smoky depth that complemented the creamy, savory broth. It was a comforting bowl of ramen that felt like a warm hug on a cool day.

The service at Tadokoro Shoten was friendly and efficient, with staff who clearly take pride in their craft. The care and precision that went into every dish were evident in every bite, making our dining experience...

I wrote my name in katakana and the staff never used it to call me , only pointed to me after reading it. They asked if I wanted an English menu. I replied in Japanese that English or Japanese would be okay. So they gave me the English menu. Only 40 percent of the Japanese was there. I complained and got the Japanese menu. Ordered gyoza- tasted like frozen food from our local super market.

Thumbs down...

Came here with some friends on my first night here and I thought the food was good. I had a lighter miso base ramen and had to ask them to remove any meat from the ramen. The soup was a little salty for me but had a lot of noddles. I also got a side of rice for the soup which was nice.

There was comfortable seating and the servers were nice to...
