Menya Ageha Ramen is perfectly located just a short walk from Osaka castle! Which makes it a great place to check out, especially in the colder month of the Year.
It’s a small enough shop seating just about 13 people and it looks like a traditional ramen shop, nothing fancy, but the staff is so nice, it felt like we were locals.
Get your ticket at the machine. First, insert the cash then pick your Ramen. And we warn you, it’s a bit temperamental if your money comes back out a few times, it’s not you! Just keep trying.
And as already mentioned, the staff or what we think are the owner are super friendly although they don’t speak much English. The menu too is Japanese only, but every item has a clear picture on the machine, so you cannot go wrong.
We ordered the Tsukemen for 980¥ and the Nr2 Bestseller for 800¥, why not the Nr1? It was another Tsukemen so we wanted to change it up a bit. You can tell them small, middle or large for the noodles at no extra cost. And as always, the small was pretty big. So think wise. Especially as this is not your light broth, it’s a creamy thick sauce. Hearty and full of flavor. If you get through the whole bowl, fair play!
It is real soul food, so if you go see Osaka Castle, come and check it out. As Menya Ageha Ramen is definitely within the top ramen we ate this year!
