    Come on man. That’s the McDonald’s of ramen 🤭😂

  2. One of the most mediocre ramen restaurants in Japan

    Friendly advice, don’t eat this mediocre ramen when you actually can get good stuff.

    Don’t believe the hype about Ichiran. Also, don’t tell me what to do.

    Friendly advice: if you talk make sure it’s about something you know nothing about.

    Hey Siri, what’s the opposite of “cooking” in modern parlance?

    There’s nothing wrong with eating Ichiran, and maybe it’s worth it once.

    But the best ramen in Japan is always from a local place. And usually a mom-and-pop type.

  8. It’s still pretty good even though it’s a chain. Wouldn’t go out of my way to eat it but for a first timer in Japan, it’s worth the try if you come across one. People just shitting on it bc Reddit loves to shit on anything that’s a chain restaurant and think they’re above it or some shit

    Fun fact, we have Ichiran in America.

    Definitely do go to this spot. At 3am, after getting obliterated at a karaoke bar and you need to sober.

    Go there, scarf this down in under 2 mins and go to bed.

    Good as gold the next day.

    I’d highly recommend Noseya Ramen right outside of Okubo station. Ate there all the time when still lives in Tokyo.
    Or Do Miso Hacchibori near Tokyo Station. Both are way better than Ichiran for cheaper.

    No don’t believe that. As far as ramen chains go Ichiran is just so-so. There are many other great places that are not chains to choose. Even if we limit ourselves to chains I’d opt for Ippudo or Tenka Ippin instead.

    Ichiran? My guy, I have like sixteen of these in New York City along with Ippudo. Like this is some basic first time in Japan stuff. Ichiran is a B+ at best in grand scheme of things.

    Oh no… It’s not bad, but not worth the hype or the lines.

  15. Why is this place so popular with people overseas? It’s a so-so chain whose only advantage is giving some privacy from the slurper next to you.

    So many comment saying how shit it is but hardly a single comment with a better recommendation?
