Came back to Fūunji for the second time, and it was just as good as I remembered. There was a long wait again, but it’s completely worth it. This is one of those places that consistently delivers. The tsukemen broth is thick, rich, and deeply flavorful, with that signature seafood-chicken intensity that coats every strand of noodle. The noodles are perfectly chewy and hold up beautifully in the dipping soup. It’s efficient, no-frills, and focused purely on quality. Honestly, this feels like a must-visit whenever I’m in Tokyo.

This is by far the best ramen that I ever had. We order both the dipping Tsukemen and the deluxe ramen. The broth is thick and flavourful. Ingredients were generous as well. The noodles have some bite to it which is really good. Service was fast too. We didn’t have to wait long before getting to a seat. And they were already preparing my orders even before we had a seat. Really awesome planning.

Food was amazing, one of the best tsukemen I’ve ever had. The sauce was so thick, rich and full of flavour. The dining experience itself was very unique. You stand in a line outside the store, pay for the food at the kiosk and squeeze behind all the seated customers inside the store and wait for the next available seat. While eating, you have the pressure of the chefs staring at you and the customers standing behind you. But it’s amazing how they manage this system so efficiently and they remember the order of people entering the store so well. I got to the store at 11am when they open, by 11.20, some of the seats have turned over for the third time already.

Wait time can be long but is definitely worth it. The broth is very flavorful, and with the noodles, makes slurping so satisfying. The broth was the perfect amount of saltiness that required a sip of water after every few bites. Services is good and fast

We had high expectations for Fuunji Ramen given its popularity on Tabelog, but it didn’t fully hit the mark for us. The tsukemen dipping ramen is definitely unique, though the dipping sauce felt very salty and had a strong fishy flavor that wasn’t quite our style. Make sure to choose the standard size of noodles, as the big one is definitely too big. The place was completely full when we arrived, so we had to wait a bit for a seat. After we finished, a long line had formed outside, which shows how popular it is. Prices are on the cheaper side, which might explain why so many people love this spot.
