Mitsuimen Mitsui 麺 みつヰ

A seven-seat counter between Tawaramachi and Asakusa serving chicken-and-seafood shoyu ramen with mellow, hand-kneaded noodles.

About

Mitsui is a tiny counter a few minutes from Tawaramachi and the Tsukuba Express Asakusa station that shot onto Tabelogs Ramen 100 list. The shoyu soup blends chicken and seafood into something round and mellow, and the hand-kneaded medium-thick noodles are the star, with a crunch of lotus root among the toppings. Its house-sauce katsudon has its own fans. With only seven seats the shop uses a ticket system to assign waiting spots, and it takes cashless prepayment. Sundays are lunch only.

Highlights

• Chicken-and-seafood shoyu soup
• Hand-kneaded, medium-thick noodles
• Lotus-root accent among the toppings
• Popular house-sauce katsudon on the side
• Ten minutes from Senso-ji, away from the crowds

Tips

• Take a waiting ticket on arrival rather than standing in a loose line.
• Cashless payment is accepted.
• Weekday 11:00 or 17:30 openings are easiest.
• Phones are hard to answer during service; check SNS for closures.
