Urinbo — Restaurant in Tokyo

Found this place as it is close to our hotel. Got the standard bowl for 650¥ and added extra noodles for 150¥ and an egg for ¥100. The noodles were chewy and nicely cooked. The broth has a rich pork flavour that wasn't too fatty. The char siu was okay, nothing bad to say about it. When I was almost done my noodles, the cook brought me my extra noodles in a strainer and added it to the soup. This is a small, no frills noodle shop. I only knew a few simple words in Japanese so they knew I was a foreigner, even though I am Asian, but the service was prompt and polite (so I am not sure what a previous poster was talking about when they said they were mistreated because they were foreigners).

The char shu pork is rolled properly. Unlike a popular red one franchise down the road(near the station) that charges almost double the amount here and the char shu there had turned into a piece of processed...

If I have a choice, I'd rather go elsewhere. This is a ramen noodle place. They specialize in the tonkotsu variety. The milky colored soup is really good, but not any better than other tonkotsu shops. It's tough to find bad tonkotsu. They're all pretty good. Place looked like it's big with the tourist crowd although tough to see why. They have multi language menu. Is that why? Price is on the steep side as that is the norm around this touristy area. Staff is friendly enough but service is slow and inefficient. Cash only. So in summary, ok food, pricey, and poor service. I wouldn't go so far as to call it a tourist trap, but not the...
