We stopped here for dinner before heading back to our hotel.
It's a small establishment with crammed seating. But it's conveniently located across from the main Kyoto station.
You hv to first buy your ticket off a machine and then they will try and get a seat for you. We waited for about 15mns before being waited.
Noodles were springy n had that al dente effect, quite nice. You will be even asked how you want your noodle to be done.
I had the one that had eggs and a bowl of their rice.
Taste wise, I feel its pretty nice but then again, I've taste other better ramen before. The broth was rich, chasu was thin and the veg were bland.
Price, at that location, I guess it was ok.... sightly on the high side considering the taste.
Service was alright like any other...

For Roughly 1000 Yen, you can get noodles, 3 slices of pork, a soft boiled egg, seaweed, and greens in a perfect creamy tonkatsu broth.
My mom and I visited Japan for 2 weeks and ate across 5 different cities. We both agreed this little hole in the wall in Kyoto had the best food and value of all the places we ate. We had to eat here 3 times. Plus, extra noodles is only 100 Yen!...
