Experience traditional tempura at this establishment founded in 1924, where skilled artisans fry premium seafood and seasonal vegetables before your eyes.

Udon Shin
Japanese restaurant

Savor handmade udon with an ideal chewy, bouncy bite, prepared fresh daily. Try the cold zaru udon with crispy tempura or the unique carbonara-style udon. After heavier ramen and tsukemen, a bowl of clean, chewy handmade udon offers a refreshing and grounding experience, highlighting Japanese culinary simplicity.

Experience rich tsukemen, where cold, chewy noodles are dipped into a concentrated, hot broth cooked for over fourteen hours.

Soushi Menya Musashi

Ramen Hayashida Shinjuku Shop
Ramen restaurant
4.3
Indulge in refined shoyu ramen with a clean, golden-clear broth built on high-quality duck bones and Daisen chickens.
