Ramen Mecca Nestled in the Backstreets of Tokyo

At the end of a small alleyway, away from the hustle and bustle of Shibuya, there is a long-established ramen restaurant permeated with the rich aroma of tonkotsu soup. Koushou has received high praise from ardent ramen fans in Tokyo.

Deep and Rich Flavors of the Soup

Upon stepping into the restaurant, the first thing that tantalizes your senses is the savory fragrance of the concentrated umami in the tonkotsu broth. The carefully simmered tonkotsu shiragama soup has a strong presence and a rich flavor. Yet, it doesn't leave a heavy aftertaste; instead, it offers a delightful balance of richness and refreshing coolness.

Unlimited Noodle Refills - A Proud Specialty

One of the restaurant's proud specialties is the free and unlimited noodle refills, a service that excites any ramen enthusiast. Whether starting with a large serving or adding multiple refills of the regular size, diners can indulge according to their preferences. The straight, narrow noodles also provide a satisfying texture.

Warm Hospitality and Heartfelt Service

Not only the flavors, but also one of the reasons why this place is highly esteemed is the character of the owner. Reflecting the strong downtown atmosphere of this neighborhood in Tokyo, the kind and well-mannered service is exceptional, creating a welcoming atmosphere for both regulars and newcomers. Despite being a popular and crowded establishment, the leisurely and unrushed experience adds to its charm.

A renowned ramen restaurant nestled in the backstreets of Tokyo, where the flavorful tonkotsu soup, endless noodle refills, and heartfelt downtown atmosphere come together. A must-visit for any ramen enthusiast.
