Mita Seimenjo

Karaage was really good! Tsukemen was good too, not my fav. Service, however, was shocking! We walked in 2 minutes before they opened at 11 to ask if they were open and the lady inside waved angrily at us to communicate to us that they weren’t ready, that’s fine, we expected for them to say so but no harm in asking as other businesses sometimes allow for you to go in before opening. We went outside to wait and at 11 am, she came outside to flip the sign to “Open” very aggressively, turned to glare at us also very aggressively, and proceeded to slam the door 😅 we thought this was very unnecessary and made us feel quite uncomfortable. We ordered and when she put our food down, she was still very hostile. Bearing in mind, the whole time, we were still polite and tried our best to be considerate as visitors to their country.

Found this gem around Shibuya and tried the tsukemen—instantly got why it’s hyped! The noodles were thick, chewy, and perfect for the rich, spicy broth. Went with 5 people, including 3 kids, and the owner (I think) made the 30-minute wait totally worth it. Good thing we had someone who spoke Nihongo, which made the whole experience smooth and amazing.

I visited on weekday, 12pm. This shop is so tiny and it was full when I got there. You’ll need to buy ticket from kiosk first, then wait to be seated. Once you have your seat, give the ticket to a server then they serve your tsukemen shortly. I ordered extra rich broth one, it was tick and rich, I ordered small size, I thought it was way too small but at the end, I was full. I have had their shrimp tsukemen before, I like this extra rich one better! Service was minimal and kind of blunt. Not friendly but very quick and efficient.

On a rainy day nothing beats Tsukemen dipping noodles and this is a great place for them. We ordered the spicy dipping sauce but to be honest it wasn’t that spicy. But the noodles were firm and the sauce still delicious. The dipping sauce was thick and full of flavour, which made each dip of noodles a joy. They also had an English menu and the staff spoke pretty good English so it was a nice easy meal. Definitely worth checking out if you fancy a good dipping noodle ramen.

Really rich tsukemen dip, with nice chewy noodles. Staff was friendly and English menu was available too. The karaage chicken was well done - crispy on the outside, moist and succulent on the inside. Definitely a must-order, either with a set or as a separate a la carte (in 5, 10 or 15).

If I’m craving for some tsukemen, Mita Seimenjo is my go-to. I’ve been to this branch two or three times because of its location. Service is fine, food is good. The space is quite narrow but normal for a place to grab quick bites. I went for the spicy broth this time and had medium cold noodles. I’m full.

I went there for the first time last night. I like the decoration, pretty comfortable. Foreigners friendly though English menu is not available. I tried dipping noddle with egg. Tasty and reasonable price for Shibuya area. Would go there again. For the noddle size, I chose normal one and I think it's good enough. For soup, I tried the spicy one. It's totally normal (not spicy at all) for a South East Asian guy. But I like it.

Amazing ramens. Very cosy ramen house. Thank you
