French-Trained Chef does Ramen

Ramen Inariya is located on Asakusa-dori, commonly known as Butsudan-dori. An avenue between Ueno Station and Tawaramachi Station, Asakusa-dori is lined with many shops selling household Buddhist altars (butsudan) and household Shinto altars (kamidana).

Take Exit 2 at Inaricho Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line, then walk along Asakusa-dori for about 3-minutes in the direction of Tawaramachi. Inaricho is one stop away from Ueno Station. The yellow signboard with the shop name written in red letters is the landmark. The restaurant is diagonally across the street from Shinasoba Yamato, another ramen restaurant.   (Note: Inariya serves meat wonton noodles, while Shinasoba Yamato serves both shrimp and meat wontons.)

Mr. Kenta Takahashi, the owner chef, opened Ramen Inariya in 2015 at the age of 27 after working for five years at a French restaurant in a hotel in Tokyo followed by manager of an izakaya. The limited-edition ramen, fused with western cooking ingredients and techniques, invites you to a new world of flavor. The restaurant mainly serves soy-based, salt-based, and spicy, mixed noodles.

The signature dish features wonton noodles with plump wontons. It is both appetizing and satisfying. The exquisite soup is flavored with light soy sauce that goes perfectly with the thin noodles. The noodles are topped with hearty meat-filled wontons, roast beef chashu, and kaiware daikon.

ワンタン麺が凄く美味しかった。スープは極上のコンソメスープの様で飲み干してしまいました。店主、店員さん、お店の雰囲気も良くて気持ち良く食事が出来ました。 Quote from Google Map Review
