Tsukemen Enji Kichijoji Sohonten — Restaurant in Tokyo

soooo good! we were allowed to choose from three different noodles, and i got the soba. there is only one type of broth and you can choose to have it spicy. the dipping broth is very rich and tasty, and it isn't heavy. i got the spicy set with extra slices of meat and the egg, and i think it was worth the upgrade! the spice level is not mild like other places and it made me sweat as i kept eating 😆 they also have a pitcher with some broth/soup in it to dilute the dipping broth when youre out of noodles, and it makes it taste so good to drink on its own (very salty otherwise). they also have options for extra toppings on their ticket machine, but it's all in japanese so i suggest just translating it with your phone if you can't understand. they only have counter seats and doesn't seat a lot of people, so i think it's better to get there ahead of time to avoid the line. there were mostly locals asides us, so i think it's pretty popular! staff were also very friendly! would come...

Definitely a local's haunt, we decided to beat the crowd by waiting outside the store at 1045am on a Friday morning.

We were the first in line, which started forming very soon after. The shop has 3 main types of noodles, I went for the normal noodles and my family went for the buckwheat.

Overall, noodles were good and the dipping sauce was amazing. Very high standard of proficiency and consistency where the chefs prepare the noodles right in front of your very eyes.

Portion wise was okay, there is an option for add-on noodles.

Overall, paid about 1000 yen for a basic bowl of Tsukemen.

People eat and leave. So, if you're near the area and looking for a nice bowl of tsukemen - this is definitely a recommendation.

Only downside was the atmosphere, being at 12 seats; does not provide a very cozy environment with the interior. But if its for the tsukemen, this shouldn't...

I came here accidentally after being in the area for another experience and stumbled upon a queue for dipping ramen which I am obsessed so I walked into it

I was so surprised how thick with so much umami it had! I ordered the 1200 yen option and picked the popular noodle which was the thick and chewy one. I heard they also have a spicy version but I didn’t want to sweat in addition to hot soup on a summer day.

I would say this was so delicious!

I came at 10:55 right before opening at 11am and was able to be the first people to enter. There are about 13 seats.

You put money into the vending machine first then pick your options. I just did the special dipping ramen at 1200 yen then pick your noodles. I was a little confused at...
