Minamiōtsuka
Sōsakumen Kōbō Nakiryū in Otsuka is a renowned Michelin-awarded ramen shop celebrated for its remarkably affordable Sichuan-style tantanmen. Served with thin, chewy noodles in a creamy, nutty sesame broth laced with chili oil and Sichuan pepper, it is widely considered an S-tier Tokyo noodle spot. Creators also passionately highlight the spicy, garlicky shrimp and pork wontons and tender boiled sui gyoza as must-order accompaniments.
