The Holy Land of Ramen - Exploring the Charm of Ramen Jiya

One of the popular and famous shops in Osaka, Ramen Jiya, is known for its rich tsukemen. Here, we will introduce the charming features of this shop.

Addictive Rich Tsukemen

The tsukemen at Jiya is characterized by the luxurious broth made from pork bone and seafood, without using any chemical seasonings. The rich and concentrated flavor is exquisite. When mixed with the noodles, the natural umami spreads throughout the mouth.

Exquisite Ingredients

On top of the tsukemen, you'll find special grilled char siu, green onions, bamboo shoots, half-boiled eggs, and more. The grilled char siu has a crispy and fragrant texture, and the soup also contains juicy diced char siu. The flavor of the seasoned egg and nori is also superb.

Delicious Dashi Rice as the Finish

At Jiya, they serve "Dashi Rice" at the end, pouring the broth over the rice, creating a wonderful harmony of umeboshi sauce and dashi. Combined with the rich broth, you can enjoy an exceptional flavor.

The charm of Jiya lies in the superb flavor created by their dedicated cooking methods. The rich and flavorful taste produced by carefully selected ingredients and skilled techniques is an absolute gem that amazes ramen enthusiasts. It's a popular shop that's worth queuing for, and definitely worth a visit.

Got here around 8pm on a weekday, there were about 10 people ahead of me in line. There is a sign explaining that a staff member will greet you when it’s your turn to order from the machine, so that when you’re seated you they can take your ticket right away. I was second in line when I was asked to order. The machine refused to accept my 5000 yen bills but no problem, the staff was very understanding and exchanged my bill for five 1000 yen bills. I ordered the pork tsukemen. The broth was delicious with great mouthfeel, and the chunks of pork were also hot and tasty. It was just slightly salty for my taste, but still one of the better tsukemens I’ve had. At the end of the meal you can ask for dashi gohan to finish off the soup, and the mixed soup and rice combination was heavenly. Really efficient shop with incredibly friendly and helpful staff, would recommend.

I came here last year and it was the beat tsukemen I've had that I had to come back again. The tsukemen broth were amazingly flavourful, and you can tell how much effort they put into making this broth. The Char siu was so crispy, and the noodles were not soggy, just perfect. The downside is that the machine is a little broken and doesn't accept 5000 yen notes, but the servers would help you exchange them to 1000 yen notes. The place is also quite small and packed. Be sure to go early as there would be a line to queue. I went as a group of four and arrived just at opening time, and within 15 minutes, there was also a line outside. It is very foreigner friendly and quite a large portion. On top of that, when you finish eating the noodles, they can add rice to finish off the broth. We did not try that because we were so full from the food already.

Got the spicy chicken tsukemen set and pork tsukemen set. Both included 300g noodle and I was so stuffed. Broth was thick and flavorful, only downside is it was too salty, but I think the idea is to dip the noodles and not submerge noodles into the soup like I'm use to. Tried this new way of eating dashi Gohan where you add the leftover soup to a small amount of rice they offer and eat it like a risotto. The spicy chicken soup came with a coconut milk rice and the pork soup came with regular rice. This place had a lineup when we went at 8pm.

Fantastic ramen experience in Osaka. I would rate it as the best ramen in Osaka. For all the ramen, you can control how much soup you want to pour into your noodles, which would determine how salty you want your noodles to be. Highly recommend this stall to everyone! Try the special pork ramen noodles.
