Tokyo Aburagumi Sohonten Ginza

Their Abura Soba is a must-try. It's served with a special sauce that you can customize to your preferred spicy level. The poached egg is the perfect touch-it adds a rich creaminess that balances the heat if you go for the spicy version. About Seating: The shop is tiny (only about 6 seats), so a wait is likely. The Process: Join the line outside and wait for the staff to call you in. You'll place your order and pay first, then wait to be seated. For 1,320 JPY, you can enjoy their signature dish.

One of the best Abura Soba in Tokyo with great value and one price for all size Soba : Regular 160g, Large 240g, W 320g. We had a late lunch there on our last day in Tokyo, December 19, 2025. There was a line with around 20 min waiting time to purchase meal ticket from the vending machine. After that we had to wait a couple minutes to get the seat. The restaurant has 8 counter seats only. You can put your bag under your seat or on the rack behind you. I ordered Spicy Miso Abura Soba Special Topping B Regular Size 160g. Mixed it with chili oil and vinegar on the counter to enhance the delicious flavor. There is also black pepper, spicy seasoning and chopped onions.

Must try! It was late when we settled in for our first night in Japan and this was pretty much the only restaurant open at that time, and we hit a jackpot! My mom and I love their noodles and went back the next night! It was easy to order since you can change the language to English on the ordering machine. There’s usually a line to get in but moves quickly. Price is very reasonable and cheaper than the restaurants around it (coke was 200 yen and regular size noodles was like 9xx yen). Place is small just like most other restaurants but it’s clean and staffs are super friendly. Will definitely go back for it again on my next visit!

This is the best Ramen I ever had in Tokyo!!! Among all the famous ramen restaurants, this one truly lives up to its reputation. The taste is amazing and the vibe is also great. They also had two flavours to choose, and both are delicious. Despite the wait time, we’ve had one of the best time eating ramen. 10/10.

Waited about an hour in line, but definitely worth it. The flavors were incredible, noodles had the perfect texture, and the whole experience felt authentic and special. Would 100% do it again

I stayed nearby and saw that there’s always a queue. I decided to try it today and had to experience a short wait of 10 minutes. All noodles regardless of the size, was of the same price, which was baffling yet surprising. Ordered the extra large sizes of both the spicy and normal soba, and found the spicy one a bit too spicy . Noodles were springy, perfectly done yet flavourful. Added in a lot of vinegar, chili oil and onions to enhance the flavour, which was good. I now fully understand why there’s always a queue, but find that there is nothing else attractive apart from the springy noodles. Might come here again if I stay nearby.

Amazing Ramen- being vegetarian we get excluded from many ramen joints- but this place has amazing vegetarian ramen. has a queue usually but moves fast. English menu. Highly recommend

It’s my must do while in Tokyo, never get tired of it except the portion is way too much sometimes for me. The noodle is qq and chewy, the spicy if you get it has me sweating always. The ingredients are always fresh. Only downside is the wait most of the time.
