About

MAIKAGURA is the kind of shop Tokyo ramen fans happily ride the Odakyu Line for: a bright, minimal counter in residential Setagaya serving refined, clear-soup ramen. The shoyu is deep and glossy, the shio lighter and more delicate, and both come with silky noodles and carefully cooked chashu; the special bowl adds more meat, wontons and an egg. It has been a fixture at or near the top of Tabelogs Tokyo ramen rankings, so expect a queue at weekends and a short evening service.

Highlights

Glossy, layered shoyu soup
Lighter, delicate shio alternative
Special bowl with extra chashu and wontons
One of Tabelogs highest-rated Tokyo ramen shops
Short, quieter evening service

Tips

Ticket machine inside; bring cash in small notes.
Weekend lunch queues form well before opening: arrive 20-30 minutes early.
Evening service is only about two hours, so do not arrive near closing.
Closed Mondays; when Monday is a holiday it closes the next weekday.
