Mensho Tokyo
Ramen. Modern, viral and busy, in CBD · 3,242 reviews on Google
The place has a strong social-media pull and warm service, with customers repeatedly naming their servers. On the other hand, the high prices — kaedama charged separately, dishes like the lobster ramen seen as small for the money — come up as a recurring caveat.
Original, creative ramen with unusual broths (toripaitan, lobster, matcha) that reinvent what you expect from a traditional bowl.

The broth is rich, deep and incredibly flavorful — you can taste the hours of slow-cooking in every spoonful.
-
The half-dozen types of chashu are amazing, the true heroes of the bowl.
-
The lobster ramen is perfection — rich, savory broth and tender lobster, a heavenly combination.
-
The noodles seem to be made in-house too, judging by the giant mill on display.

I'd never had a duck and matcha broth before coming here.

We ordered the corn wings twice.

Split the oyster ramen and the oysters were big and fresh, none of those tiny ones.

Saved space for the ichigo-misu. Good call.

Went with friends and everyone left talking about the garlic ramen.
Before you go
Some customers find the prices disproportionately high, especially on dishes like the lobster ramen and on the kaedama (extra noodles) charged separately.
