Customers are constantly coming in, indicating a thriving restaurant. Just like other locations of Nichiyouya, this one is also conveniently located near the train station. The simple Chinese-style ramen here is consistently delicious and satisfying. The clear soy sauce broth with a thin layer of oil on top is refreshing. The classic gyoza is also delicious with just the right amount of garlic.

Late-night visit. Used as a place to finish drinking while ordering classic items. The cheap highball is a lifesaver. This place, well, it can't be helped given the location, but it lacks cleanliness. The smell inside the store is a bit unpleasant, haha. The service is fast and good! The taste is also good. Keep up the great work as an enthusiastic diner!

I felt like eating liver and went to this restaurant. The liver was thinly sliced and fried, so it had no unpleasant smell and was delicious. The gyoza and fried rice were also tasty and reliable. I ordered a half portion of fried rice, but it was more than a full bowl's worth, so it was very satisfying and filling.

I visited around 6:30 on a weekday and had the Black Vinegar Soy Sauce Cold Noodles for 600 yen. There were 8 customers before me and 1 after me. There was only one mother working in the hall. The customers before me were a group of people enjoying drinks, which made me a bit envious. There was a sign saying they were open 24 hours, but I don't think they are open on Monday mornings.

Miso Ramen ¥580. I was so indecisive about what to order, but ended up going to Hidakaya after a long time! I don't like their Chinese noodles, so I ordered the miso ramen. However, the ramen never came. The person who came in after me finished eating and left. It took 25 minutes from ordering to getting my food. What do you think? This is Hidakaya we're talking about, Hidakaya!

I visited for lunch as I passed by. I sat down and placed my order using a touch panel. There were many options to choose from... I ordered the Five-Ingredient Ankake Ramen and half-fried rice, and waited for a bit. The dishes arrived in about 6 minutes. A cheerful foreign female staff member brought them to me. Let's dig in! The Five-Ingredient Ankake Ramen had plenty of ingredients and was quite flavorful. The fried rice had a slightly crispy texture that wasn't really to my liking. Thank you for the meal.

I was looking for a place to have a drink after 10pm in Uguisudani, and ended up at this Hidakaya restaurant. It was packed with people who seemed to have the same idea. I had beer along with gyoza and yakisoba. The yakisoba was delicious with lots of ingredients and a generous portion. I topped it with hot mustard and plenty of vinegar. The crispy noodles softened slightly in the sauce, just the right texture. The gyoza was also refreshing with vinegar and pepper. It was so good that I ended up drinking three beers. There were also many foreign customers and the staff were foreigners too. The exotic atmosphere added to the overall experience.

Hidakaya, I go regularly ^_^ They have touch panel and serving robots now. Haha. I usually order the set because the beer is cheap and end up drinking more than planned. ^_^ I always add white negi to my tonkotsu ramen. I like the noodles firm and the broth rich. Thank you for always offering this at such a great price. It's my go-to for solo meals late at night. Thanks for the meal. I'll be back.

2022.01.02 (Sun) Cloudy First visit 9:36 Entered the store First customer 0, Later customer 1 9:42 Served Vegetable-packed Tanmen (with a coupon for free extra noodles): 520 yen I had some business at Ueno station and decided to visit this restaurant for breakfast and have some Tanmen. I entered the store and took a seat at an available table. I ordered the "Vegetable-packed Tanmen" using the touch panel menu. I had received a coupon for free extra noodles at a different store recently, so I decided to get the extra noodles. The restaurant was run by two men in the kitchen and one woman serving. On the table, there were soy sauce, vinegar, chili oil, and pepper available. It took about 5 minutes for the food to be served. The noodles were curly flat noodles. They were cooked slightly firm and had a good texture. Since I ordered extra noodles, there was a generous amount of noodles. Ingredients: pork, napa cabbage, cabbage, bean sprouts, carrots, leeks The pork and vegetables were lightly stir-fried at high heat before being simmered in the soup. The pork was small pieces of shoulder loin. The meat was firm and slightly tough. The portion was a bit small. The vegetables had a strong stir-fry flavor and were cooked for a short time, resulting in a crunchy texture. The portion was quite generous. (It was noticeably larger than the restaurant I visited the day before.) The soup was a cloudy salty broth. It was served piping hot. The soup was made in a central kitchen and had a stable, reliable flavor. It had a slightly higher amount of oil, giving it a rich taste. There was also a hint of a savory aroma from high-temperature cooking. The saltiness was just right. I added some pepper from the table halfway through. The spiciness of the pepper helped to enhance the overall flavor. I enjoyed the noodles and ingredients completely. I left about half of the soup and paid before leaving. Overall, the noodles were cooked slightly firm, which I enjoyed. The vegetables were crunchy and plentiful, which was nice. The soup had a nice savory aroma. With the extra noodles, I was full and satisfied. The service was average. The cleanliness of the restaurant was decent. Thank you for the meal.

There are various types of customers here. Due to the local area, we have a wide range of customers. In the past, many people used to spend time here until morning, but now it seems like they close at 3 o'clock. I wonder where those people who were asked to leave at 3 o'clock wander off to. Today, I felt like eating Tanmen, so I visited this place. Tanmen is not a menu you can find everywhere, so it's convenient to have it at Nichihiya. The soup is delicious enough, but I'm not a big fan of Nichihiya's noodles. They don't seem like typical Chinese noodles to me. However, I was satisfied as I could still taste the essence of Tanmen. Thank you for the meal.

I visited "Hidakaya Uguisudani Store" around 1 pm on a certain Saturday in April 2020. The restaurant is located about a 2-minute walk from Uguisudani Station. The spacious interior was about 30% full with customers. There was a noticeable problem with the smell in the restaurant, which I believe was coming from the neighboring store. The smell of pork bone broth lingered in the air, making me feel uncomfortable. I wonder if the air conditioning is not working properly. It was quite distracting. I sat at the counter alone and ordered the "Japanese-style dipping noodles" for ¥570, along with "thinly sliced green onions" for ¥120 and "half fried rice" for ¥270. The order arrived after about 7-8 minutes. I personally like the combination of Hidakaya's "Japanese-style dipping noodles" and "thinly sliced green onions". The Japanese-style dipping noodles were not particularly delicious, but there was something addictive about them. The fish powder sprinkled generously on the dipping sauce paired perfectly with Hidakaya's nicely curled noodles. I tend to build my meal around the thinly sliced green onions when I come to Hidakaya. Adding these green onions to the dipping sauce creates a wonderful B-grade taste. The unchanged taste was comforting. The "half fried rice" was just the right size with a nice fluffiness. It's important that it's not overly delicious. Although the prices have been increasing over the years, I still enjoy the classic combination at Hidakaya that makes me want to come back regularly. Hidakaya's dipping noodles are a seasonal limited menu item, but I hope they make it a permanent part of their menu.

I went to Hagi no Yu, a bathhouse where you can enjoy a morning bath and sauna on a Saturday morning. It was around 8 o'clock when I arrived. This place is open 24 hours, which is convenient. Despite the spacious interior, there were only two other customers. I imagine it must be tough for ramen shops to open in the morning. I felt a bit sorry for taking up a whole table by myself. I ordered the Gomoku Ankake Ramen (630 yen) and a Lemon Sour (290 yen), along with a coupon for a flavored egg (50 yen). The prices were reasonable, which was nice. The Lemon Sour arrived quickly, followed by the Ankake Ramen in about 5 minutes. The hot ankake soup caused the wide noodles to stick together a bit from the start. Maybe Tanmen would have been a better choice. The small pieces of cabbage and shrimp were smaller than those in cup noodles. The flavored egg was well-seasoned. Considering the price of 630 yen, I have no complaints. Ramen is a budget-friendly food, and the difference of 100 yen can make a big impact on the ingredients. The older gentleman drinking alcohol after his morning bath happily snacked on the cabbage. It was nice. The mornings of older gentlemen start early even on their days off. I think it must be tough, but I wish there were more morning ramen shops.

Eating Out Edition - Difference in Cost Performance: Feeling silly, I ordered a large serving of tonkotsu ramen at Hidakaya/Uguisudani. This is a story from a little while ago, but for lunch on 2/22 (Sat), I went to this restaurant. Hidakaya Uguisudani branch. I happened to stumble upon this place while walking before. I thought I'd have a quick ramen here this day. First, I checked the menu. The price difference between Chuka soba and other ramen is clear. In order to keep the price of Chuka soba the same for the past few years, it is clear that the prices of other menu items have been raised significantly. It seemed silly to order something other than Chuka soba, but I ordered a large serving of tonkotsu ramen (using a service ticket for 450 yen). After a while, the tonkotsu ramen arrived. The soup had a very tonkotsu-like color, with noodles, toppings of chashu, menma, nori, and chopped green onions in the usual Hidakaya style. I felt like I was being watched by the staff, so I sprinkled some pepper first and got ready. Sprinkling a lot is Miyaken's style. So, first the soup. Slurp, slurp, slurp. Mmm, delicious! Ramen is definitely better with tonkotsu than light soy sauce. Next, the noodles. Slurp, slurp, slurp. Mmm, delicious! Perfectly cooked. The chashu was well simmered and tender, with a strong flavor. This is tasty. The menma was quite ordinary. It's a ramen topping, so it's fine. The nori. It adds a nice touch. Chopped green onions. This is doing a great job. Added some shichimi. Tonkotsu ramen definitely needs shichimi. Slurping and slurping, I finished it all in one go. Phew, I ate it all. With this taste and volume at this price, the cost performance is satisfactory. Miyaken left the restaurant very satisfied. The end. As of this day, the number of meals eaten out (breakfast and lunch since January 2011, excluding the company cafeteria) is 1,217 meals, with an average price per meal including tax: 466 yen.

I visited this restaurant near Uguisudani Station for breakfast. It is a chain Chinese restaurant that operates 24 hours a day. I ordered a large portion of fried rice, along with bite-sized portions of fried chicken and dumplings. Surprisingly, the fried rice had a deliciously junky flavor that I enjoyed. The fried chicken had a crispy texture and was decent. The dumplings were neither good nor bad. In addition to regular-sized dishes, they also offer bite-sized appetizers, allowing you to try a variety of dishes in small portions, which I thought was nice.

I went there in mid-October last year after work for dinner. This time, I had Chinese noodles, fried chicken, and a healthy tea. The Chinese noodles were only 390 yen including tax, which is cheap. I remembered how delicious the Chinese noodles were when I had them at another restaurant before, so I decided to order them again after a long time. I kept the toppings simple with bamboo shoots, seaweed, pork slices, and green onions. Sometimes the taste can vary depending on the chain restaurant, and this time it was a bit disappointing compared to what I had before. The fried chicken, however, was delicious.

I went there in early October last year after work because I was hungry. It was very helpful that they are open 24 hours. I ordered tonkotsu ramen, 6 gyoza, fried chicken as a snack, and a healthy tea. I don't usually eat tonkotsu ramen, but the rich soup and thin noodles were delicious. The fried chicken was also tasty with the addictive mayonnaise. I like the gyoza at this restaurant, and at 210 yen for 6 pieces, I think it's cheap for this taste.

I was lured in by this poster advertising a limited-time offer of 290 yen for all-you-can-eat. I was sucked into the restaurant and ordered gyoza, gingko nuts, and fried sardines. Maybe because it wasn't too busy, but surprisingly the fried sardines were carefully fried and turned out plump and delicious. Thank you for the meal.

This is delicious in its own way. The charm of Hidakaya is that it fills you up. The safe, familiar taste makes you want to add some black pepper or pepper that you don't usually use. The onsen egg is served separately, so you can choose when to add it. Enjoy gradually from the beginning, and the egg comes in the latter half. You won't get tired of the changing flavors. Let's add some fun to the standard.

The brothless ramen tasted salty but lacked depth in flavor. It did fill me up though.

Lunchtime Motsu (offal) vegetable ramen surprisingly has chewy flat noodles that are delicious. Their specialty is Tanmen (vegetable ramen), where adding plenty of vinegar to the soup enhances the flavor of the noodles. It's delicious, so don't hesitate to try it at this chain restaurant.
