●●Waiting Situation●● I arrived at 11:10 on a holiday! There are 3 people waiting outside. I was able to enter the store 20 minutes later! I waited inside for about 20 minutes. ●●Order●● I ordered the "Niku Shoyu" for 1100 yen + "Homemade Grilled Rice Cake" for 150 yen! Follow me on Instagram: @pukchan_ramen ●●Soup●● The soup at Men Tetsu is distinct with the umami flavors of chicken and kombu! It's light yet you can also taste a hint of sweetness from the soy sauce, which makes it incredibly delicious. It seems like the saltiness has decreased compared to when they first opened, making it closer in taste to other Men Tetsu locations. Personally, I prefer this version! ●●Noodles●● The noodles are flat, medium-thick noodles. The surface is smooth, yet they have a nice chewiness to them and are delicious! ●●Chashu●● Since I ordered the Niku Shoyu, the chashu is piled high! There are two thick slices, about 1 cm thick, and around 4 thinly sliced chashu pieces. The thick slices are perfectly grilled and flavorful! Great for those who want a hearty chashu experience! The thinly sliced ones are packed with umami flavor! ●●Homemade Rice Cake●● The grilled rice cake is fragrant and pairs well with the soy sauce broth! It has a crispy exterior while being chewy inside – simply amazing! ●●Overall Impression●● It's been a while since I had soy sauce ramen, and I'm delighted to see how much it has become my favorite! I'll definitely be increasing my visits here. Thank you for the meal!♪

The restaurant had only 7 seats at the counter and was almost full. I ordered soy sauce ramen for 900 yen and egg over rice for 300 yen. The soup had a good aroma, was light but rich in flavor, and was very delicious. The noodles were flat and had a good texture, also very tasty. The egg over rice came with soy sauce already poured over it, but there was too much soy sauce, making it too salty.

This is a ramen shop near Suita Station. There is Aonishi nearby. I arrived after 12 o'clock and was able to be seated immediately without waiting. Next to me, it seems that a group of foreigners is having a meal. I ordered soy sauce ramen and pork miso rice bowl this time. The restaurant operates on an order system. The background music in the restaurant is from FM radio, and listening to it, the dishes arrived! Wow... the noodles look amazing! The bowl is also elegant, giving a sense of sophistication. First, I tried the soup... it is mainly made from chicken bones with a hint of kelp, following the concept of highlighting the noodles. The soup is easy to drink, with a slightly stronger soy sauce flavor compared to the main store. The noodles are straight, medium-thick, and chewy, with excellent texture. The aroma of wheat is strong, and the flavor is refreshing. The chashu, reminiscent of the main store, is a large thinly sliced chashu with a meaty texture. Eating it dipped in the soup enhances its deliciousness. The crunchy texture of the green onions is also excellent! The pork miso rice bowl has a strong miso flavor with a kick of ginger and garlic, topped with crispy pork slices that go well with the rice... it's so delicious. It has a different charm compared to the green onion pork bowl or pork mayo bowl found in the main store. Next time, I want to try the original mackerel or Iberico pork... Bon appétit!

Arrived at the restaurant on Sunday afternoon and there were already 7 people waiting in line. Waited for about an hour. The counter only has 7 seats, so turnover is not very fast, especially on hot days. I ordered the dried mackerel salt ramen. The soup was rich and incredibly delicious. The flat noodles were smooth like pasta. Each topping had a deep flavor, and the seaweed absorbed the soup nicely, giving off a good aroma. The thinly sliced char siu was also smooth and tasty. This was my first time trying ramen with grilled mackerel, and the plump fish and the saltiness matched the soup perfectly! I was completely satisfied with this bowl filled with attention to detail. If there wasn't a line, I would definitely visit again when I'm in Suita.

I visited a popular ramen shop near JR Suita Station in search of delicious ramen. I arrived around noon on a weekday and there were only two people in line, so I was able to be seated right away at the 7-seat counter. Many reviews on Tabelog recommended the salt ramen, but since the manager used to work at Men Tetsu, I decided to try the soy sauce ramen. The soup had a refined dashi flavor, but personally, I found it a bit lacking in richness compared to what I usually enjoy. The noodles were smooth and had a nice firm texture, which was unique and delicious. The toppings included crunchy green onions, chashu, seaweed, and bamboo shoots, but they didn't stand out in terms of flavor. I also ordered an extra serving of noodles, which had a slightly different thickness and were equally tasty. The owner and his wife provided excellent service, creating a comfortable atmosphere in the shop. Customers of all ages and backgrounds were present, making it a charming ramen shop loved by the local community.

This place used to be a yakitori restaurant since I was a child, but it closed down at some point. It then became a curry restaurant, or sometimes it was just left vacant for a few years. However, when "彩哲 isato" opened, it became a thriving restaurant with a constant flow of customers. My wife noticed this and had been wanting to try it for a few years. However, both my wife and I... actually don't like waiting in line, so we had never tried it before. But this time, with my wife working until 1 pm and our son away for a school event, we decided to visit after 1 pm... And luckily, there were exactly 2 seats available, so we were seated right away. The aroma of the seafood-based soup was delightful! We decided to order the "Dried Mackerel Salt Ramen" for me and the "Soy Sauce Ramen" for my wife. The prices were actually 100 yen more expensive than what was listed on Tabelog. The Dried Mackerel Salt Ramen was a first for me... The soup, with its seafood-based salt flavor, was light yet had depth. The extra fat, maybe back fat, was plentiful and just to my liking. The flat noodles had a nice chew to them and were delicious! And the dried mackerel and dried mochi, also a first for me, were delightful. The dried mackerel easily fell apart and tasted great when chewed... It was prepared well with no bones at all. The dried mochi was not too hard or too soft, and it blended well with the soup's flavor. The thin slices of chashu were not too flavorful, allowing the soup to enhance their taste. The light and well-rounded seafood-based salt ramen was easy to eat, and I finished it with pleasure! Thank you for the meal. When I asked my wife about the Soy Sauce Ramen, she said the soup, based on chicken bones, was light and delicious. Her impressions of the flat noodles and chashu were similar to mine. However, she mentioned that there was a bit too much fat in it. Looking at the photo of the Soy Sauce Ramen, there seemed to be some color in the fat... Perhaps it was chicken fat. My wife usually likes back fat in ramen, but for some reason, she doesn't like chicken fat. Well, that's just personal preference, so it can't be helped. My wife herself said she wanted to go back again, so we will definitely revisit when we can get in without waiting. Today, we had a late lunch, so we didn't order the "kaedama," but I am personally very interested in the idea of "changing noodles"...

Today, I visited "Saitetsu" in Suita for my second stop. I couldn't decide between soy sauce and salt, but I went with the "dried mackerel salt" because it has grilled mochi in it. Let's dig in. First, the soup. It's made with mackerel broth, giving it a gentle flavor. The seasoning is salt. The noodles are smooth and chewy, flat straight thick noodles. Toppings include chashu, chopped green onions, menma, aosa seaweed, slices of mackerel, and grilled mochi. The chashu is thinly sliced and easy to eat. The menma is the traditional type. The grilled mochi is soft and well done. Thank you for the meal.

It's been a while since I visited this top-notch restaurant in Suita City. As soon as it opened, it was packed. It's really popular. I ordered the "Kare Saba Shio" with extra-large chashu topping. The perfectly seasoned salt broth, chewy homemade flat noodles, and the topping of grilled mochi and saba with yuzu-an were all incredibly delicious. The flavor is light yet deep. It's absolutely irresistible.

I arrived before the lunch rush and was lucky to be seated right away, as there were only a few seats available. I ordered the Karesaba Shio Ramen for 1000 yen, which I had never tried before. The noodles were perfectly cooked and served in a clear and beautiful broth that had a gentle Japanese flavor. The noodles were flat and glossy, with a unique chewy texture. The tasty mackerel had a sweet and slightly alcoholic flavor, reducing any fishy taste. As I continued eating, the distinctive aroma of mackerel became more prominent, giving a sense of New Year's festivities. This ramen might be considered bold for those seeking a more traditional flavor. I really like the noodles here. Thank you for the meal.

Visited on a holiday night. There were two customers before me. It's located just a short walk from JR Suita Station. I ordered the soy sauce ramen for 800 yen including tax. It arrived in a little over 5 minutes. When I tried the soup, it was a light and gentle flavor. The noodles were straight and flat, and very delicious. While many ramen places these days have bold flavors, this one had a taste that reminded me of old Tokyo-style ramen, which was also very tasty. They also have other menu items with more impactful names, so those might offer a different taste experience. I would like to try something else next time.

Stopped by after work on a weekday at Shoyu 850. There was already one salaryman at the counter. The service was pleasant in this counter-only establishment. The noodles had that familiar taste of the Tetsu-men group and were delicious. The clear soup was also tasty.

I arrived at the restaurant around 8 pm and was able to enter without waiting. As I looked at the menu, I could feel the manager's dedication to ramen through many notes. I ordered the simplest item on the menu. The soup was simple yet packed with flavor, the chashu was tender and the noodles, a result of the manager's dedication, were perfectly balanced. It was a delightful meal.

The restaurant has about 7 counter seats. The menu includes soy sauce and grilled mackerel salt ramen, toppings, and pork bowl. I ordered soy sauce ramen with grilled rice cake topping, and I thought the gentle flavor of the soy sauce and rare pork would appeal to women. I recommend trying the grilled rice cake topping.

I visited a popular ramen shop in Suita, Osaka for the first time! I visited on a Saturday at noon and there were 6 people waiting outside. The interior of the shop had only counter seats with a white-based theme. I ordered the soy sauce ramen, which had a refreshing Japanese-style soup with chewy flat noodles. It was delicious!

I visited before 7 pm on a weekday. There were a couple of other customers, but it wasn't empty. I had the meat soy sauce ramen. The serving size was generous, with a lot of meat covering the surface of the bowl. There were two types of meat, both delicious. The noodles were flat and had a unique texture. The service was polite and overall good, but the taste was within expectations. The meat was good quality but a bit on the expensive side. Thank you for the meal!

Lunch visit. 1 group waiting. You will be seated in about 10 minutes. Saba salt grilled mochi for 1000 yen. The grilled mochi is stretchy. The soup is a light salt flavor with well-seasoned salt-grilled mackerel. The chashu is tender and delicious. The noodles and soup didn't seem to match well, but maybe it's because the soup was personally too light for me. Thank you for the meal!

In Suita, there is a popular ramen shop that offers a limited menu item called "Buri Daikon Shio," which is a surprising combination of ramen and daikon radish with yellowtail. I visited the shop after being intrigued by the unique limited menu items several times before. Although there is often a line during lunchtime, it is easier to get in smoothly in the evening. Even at night, the limited menu items were still available. In addition to the regular menu, there are unique options like grilled mackerel with mochi topping called "Kare Saba Shio." The Buri Daikon ramen consists of a large piece of yellowtail, daikon radish, cabbage, and green onions on top of a salt-based soup. The appearance resembles oden, and the soup has a refreshing saltiness with flat noodles similar to fettuccine. The large piece of yellowtail adds a perfect touch to the dish without overpowering the soup, creating an indescribable deliciousness. The daikon radish soaked in the soup gives the feeling of eating oden. The combination of yellowtail daikon and salt ramen, which most people would never think to pair together, perfectly expresses the dish. The regular menu item, Kare Saba Shio, has a wonderful aroma of seaweed, with a refreshing salt soup complemented by the saltiness of the mackerel and the delicious grilled mochi soaked in the soup. The Iberico pork and green onion ramen, with plenty of Iberico pork and green onions in a rich soy sauce broth, is also recommended. The shop owner's talent in coming up with unique yet successful ideas is truly impressive. I am excited to see what kind of limited menu items they will offer next. This shop never fails to bring a sense of anticipation and excitement.

I used it for lunch on a regular day. The interior of the restaurant is relatively small and it is difficult to move around. I ordered the Iberico pork negi soba for ¥1200 from about 4 options this time. Result: Honestly, it was a bit disappointing. The flat noodles didn't go well with the soup, in my opinion. I haven't tried other ramen, so I can't say for sure, but I feel like noodles with a bit more wheat flavor would go better with the soup. The soup was, in a slightly negative way, like the broth of a soba restaurant's duck soba. I probably won't come back for this. The Iberico pork had a good flavor and was tender and delicious. It may be a matter of personal preference, but I probably won't come back. Thank you for the meal!

Visited the ramen restaurant "Saitetsu" near Osaka JR Suita Station. Arrived before the opening at 11:30 am on a weekday, with a wait of 2 people. After opening, the restaurant quickly filled up, with customers waiting. Ordered the soy sauce ramen. The noodles were smooth and chewy, with a good texture. The noodles were delicious. The chashu was large, with 3 slices providing a sufficient amount. However, the soup was a bit mild and lacked a strong flavor. I expected a bit more punch. The restaurant has been selected as one of the top 5000 on Tabelog, with a rating of 3.69, but I did not feel it lived up to the hype. I would like to try a different menu item next time. #Saitetsu #ramen #soysauceramen #ramenlovers #ramenclub #rameninstagram #ramenpatrol #ramenlover #ramenadventures #ramenstagram #ramendatabase #Osakaramen #Osakagourmet #Suita #Suitagourmet #Suitaramen #Tabelog

Iberico pork negi soba for 1,200 yen Steamed rice for 200 yen It was my first visit to this place. This is the fifth restaurant in the Men-Tetsu series, following Osaka, Toyonaka, Boya-Tetsu, and Men-Yaro. This place felt the most welcoming. The Iberico pork was crispy and delicious, with finely chopped green onions. It's worth trying the consecutive eating experience from Suita Station to Aonishi and then to Sai-Tetsu. Thank you for the delicious meal.

Today I had decided to definitely go to Saitetsu♪ I restrained myself for lunch in anticipation of indulging later (о´∀`о) I had the Niku Shoyu Ramen for 1150 yen, added an extra serving of noodles for 150 yen, and also tried the Buta Toro Don for 400 yen. The Niku Shoyu Ramen was absolutely delicious, with perfect texture and flavor! The soup was also amazing. The extra noodles were a different type but equally tasty. The Buta Toro Don was also very delicious (о´∀`о) My heart and stomach were both truly satisfied.
