Ramen restaurant • Japan, 〒103-0013 Tokyo, Chuo City, Nihonbashiningyōchō, 3-chōme−3−13 CICビル
Ningyocho, a nostalgic area of Tokyo, is a place where office buildings and old-fashioned streets coexist. In this area, tucked away quietly, is Ramen Toyoki, a shop highly acclaimed among ramen enthusiasts. Located in a back alley just a 3-minute walk from Ningyocho Station, this popular shop attracts a large number of fans day and night, forming long queues.
The menu at Toyoki is simple yet diverse. The signature dish is the pork bone soy sauce ramen, but there are various options such as miso, salt, and tantanmen. Particularly well-regarded is the soupless tantanmen, praised by repeat customers for its perfectly balanced, not-too-spicy taste.
The interior consists only of counter seats, creating an intimate and cozy atmosphere that exudes a sense of presence. The talented chefs work diligently at the kitchen counter, and interactions with customers are kept to a minimum. This allows for a luxurious, undisturbed ramen-eating experience.
Open until the early hours, it's also a great choice for the conclusion of gatherings or late-night snacks. Ramen Toyoki perfectly embodies the simple charm of the neighborhood and the dedication to flavors, making it a true symbol of Tokyo's culinary scene.
