Motomachi Shokudo

While there’s plenty of ramen options in the neighbourhood, for me Motomachi stands out as a favourite. The ramen is excellent here - good options, quality ingredients, and decent portions. Intimate space, friendly staff, quick service, good ambiance. Seating is kind of uncomfortable so I wouldn’t come here for a lengthy meal, but great for a quick bite solo or with a couple of friends - tables are small.

We came here as the lineup outside Kintaro Ramen was a bit long for our liking and our kids were super hungry. Plenty of seating available here so were worried about how good it would be. There was no need to worry. We found the quality of the Ramen broth to be excellent (rich and plenty of depth in the flavor with the right amount of umami) and the noodles in particular to be even slightly superior to the ones at Kintaro. The Gyozas (both spicy and regular) were very tasty and perfectly cooked with just a slight char and crispness to them. The flavor of the filling in the Gyozas were also slightly better than Kintaro, in my oppinion. Surprisingly! They ended up running out of soup while we were there and we only had the choice of the Tonkotsu broth. Which as I wrote, was excellent. This is a testament I suppose to the quality of their Ramen. Though I love the Garlic and Spicy Ramen at Kintaro and the overall quality of their food, I would not hesitate to return to Motomachi Shokudo for sure. We had an excellent experience here.
