01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Add gyoza to the chicken yuzu salt ramen for a meal that keeps the noodles centre stage while making room for a side. One diner who had previously avoided citrus-flavoured ramen ordered it and enjoyed it with the dumplings, making this a possible introduction to yuzu ramen. Another diner said they drank their way through the soup of the salt ramen, and the menu also includes a salt ramen with tomato.

For a more substantial bowl, one diner’s comments on the Kiwami Ramen, described as tonkotsu and seafood-based, stand out. They mentioned the thickness and satisfying bite of the chashu, while another diner enjoyed thick-cut, well-seasoned chashu alongside a chashu rice bowl. The menu also lists chashu ramen, set meals with a choice of noodles and a chashu rice bowl, so you can keep things to noodles or add rice.

Ramen and gyoza can also be enjoyed with beer. Side dishes include meat, vegetable and shrimp gyoza. Maren in Nishitanabe serves dinner and is open until the following day at 2:00 on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays through Sundays. Payment is cash only, so come prepared.
