Ittenbari Ramen & Chahan Restaurant

Visited late in the night (2:00am) and I was surprised by how lively it was. We waited in the line outside for around 5 minutes and the server guided us into the restaurant. Although the restaurant was filled with locals they had an English menu and a staff who can speak english.

We ordered the akasaka mori miso ramen, medium fried rice and 6pcs fried gyoza. The portion size is definitely on the larger size than other Japanese local places. Even though it is a ramen place, I personally enjoyed their fried rice and dumplings more. Dumplings were super juicy and crispy on the top and the fried rice was full of flavor. The miso ramen, reminded a bit of korean bean paste soups, having a slight pepper and red pepper kick in the back. Noodles were fresh and cooked well and toppings were harmonious with the soup and noodles. In general it was bit salty but the atmosphere and general quality of food is very nice, I would definitely recommend this place to anyone staying near akasaka area.
