I visited this restaurant for the first time because they had a 30% off sale for the Hanshin Tigers' victory. The seating was limited to 6 seats facing the wall. It was a calm atmosphere, but the service from the staff was lacking. I couldn't figure out how to read the menu and ended up ordering pork instead of Matsuzaka beef. I think I'm done with this place.

Ramen with Matsuzaka beef!? Very intriguing. Despite the somewhat high prices on the menu outside, I decided to give it a try. I entered the restaurant and saw that it was a two-story establishment, with the first floor having individual tatami rooms (with partitions) and the second floor having table seating for groups. I decided to order the Matsuzaka beef sirloin ramen (1 serving) for ¥2,680. The dish was served promptly without any special waiting time. When I saw the ramen, I was amazed. There was gold leaf on the meat and the bowl itself was golden! Somewhere in my mind, I thought it might just be all about the meat, but as I scooped up the soup, it was clear and had a good aroma. I took a sip and... Mmm, delicious!! The broth had a strong flavor of bonito flakes or fish stock. The meat was excellent (of course), the noodles were great, and the marinated egg had a rich flavor. The finishing touch was the truffle oil for flavor enhancement! Truffle oil in ramen, I was truly impressed. This restaurant is probably suitable for business entertainment as well. My eyes did not deceive me!!

I finally went to try Matsusaka beef ramen that I've been curious about for a while! I ordered the Matsusaka beef shoulder ramen. The meat was delicious. I'm not sure if I should eat it together with the ramen or separately, but when I paired it with the truffle salt, it was seriously delicious. The ramen itself was also tasty. However, the portion was larger than I expected, and I ended up feeling really full at the end. Thank you for the meal!

Akasaka Mitsuke was full of people, so I decided to try a new place. This restaurant only had 5 seats and the previous customers ordered the Matsuzaka pork and Matsuzaka beef back fat ramen, but it was sold out. I was recommended the Kaiseki-style three-way pork shabu-shabu ramen instead. The noodles were thick and chewy, with a good texture. The soup had a strong broth flavor. However, when I tried eating the meat and mushrooms shabu-shabu style with the ponzu and scallions provided, it felt incomplete. When I tried eating the noodles like tsukemen, it also felt incomplete. This was more like ramen-style or Japanese-style ramen. Unfortunately, this time I only filled my stomach and I won't be revisiting.

"Matsusaka Beef Ramen Matsutora" is a ramen shop with a unique concept of putting Matsusaka beef on top of ramen. I ordered the A5 Matsusaka Beef Sirloin Ramen with 2 slices for 3980 yen. The ramen came with two large slices of Matsusaka beef sirloin, topped with gold leaf. I chose medium thick noodles. The soup had a slightly sweet bonito broth flavor, which I felt was a bit light, so I added some salt that came with it. The truffle oil added a great flavor that matched well with the broth, beef, and noodles. The counter seating makes it easy for solo diners to enjoy. The restaurant is called "Matsusaka Beef Ramen Matsutora" and is located near Akasaka Mitsuke Station, just a 1-minute walk away. They are open from 11:30 to 23:30 on weekdays and closed on weekends and holidays. Reservation is possible, with seating for 6 people (6 counter seats and a tatami room on the 2nd floor for when it's crowded or for group reservations). The average budget is 2000-2999 yen for dinner and 1000-1999 yen for lunch. Other information includes private rooms available for 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10-20 people, as well as full rental for up to 20 people, all seats are non-smoking, no parking available (but there are several coin parking lots nearby). #MatsusakaBeefRamen #Matsutora #AkasakaGourmet #AkasakaRamen #Ramen #TokyoRamen #foodie #foodstagram #gourmetlover #foodporn #foodgram #foodblogger #foodphotography #foodtravel #deliciousness #foodreport #foodwriter #bclassgourmet #Tokyofood

Ramen ranging from 500 yen to 110,000 yen. This time, my wife chose the A5 Matsusaka beef ramen with one piece for 1,980 yen. I opted for the Matsusaka beef back fat ramen produced by Takada Kazushi for 1,480 yen. The meat is definitely delicious. The soup has a taste of commercial use, perhaps? It is a Japanese-style soup, but I felt it was slightly mismatched with the noodles. Ramen is something that everyone has their own opinions on, so it's difficult to evaluate the taste. A ramen with a Japanese inn atmosphere in Akasaka. The luxury feel and the buzz around it are understandable.

It looks like a high-end restaurant, but once you go inside, there is a counter with about 5 seats similar to Ichiran Ramen. There are various autographs from celebrities displayed, and while admiring them, a splendid ramen like the one in the picture arrives. The thinly sliced shabu-shabu meat is irresistible. They tell you to cook it in your preferred way. The staff's service was also very good. It was lucky to go on a Friday! I wish they were open from 11:30 on other days too... but it's probably better to keep it as it is to avoid long lines. I will definitely go again!

I went to a place that was like a half-hearted sunken hearth-style counter for concentrated flavors. I ordered Matsusaka beef A5 sirloin ramen by writing it on a piece of paper and handing it over. You can customize the flavor intensity, noodle amount, type of onions, grated radish, nori, and more. The ramen arrived in a golden bowl with Matsusaka beef on top, sprinkled with gold powder and mushrooms. The soup was like a mushroom hot pot broth with a strong presence of Matsusaka beef. It was luxurious with truffle oil and salt on the side. I finished it all because it was so delicious. I might go try the ramen at a high-end restaurant next time.

Hello, I'm a Chinese bride. The stock market is in a recession (^人^;) Here is a great value lunch recommendation in Akasaka that won't lose to the stock market fluctuations. At Akasaka Mitsutora (revisited), they offer a special selection pork shabu-shabu set meal, which comes with pork shabu-shabu, cabbage, mushrooms, and cabbage salad. There are two types of meat. Check out the details in the zoomed-in photo. The condiments are shown here. You can adjust the taste to your liking. The price is 580 yen for 100g of meat, with a smug look (lol). By using a LINE friend coupon, you can access a secret menu item. I added thick noodles this time. Since they also serve ramen, when you're torn between ramen and pork shabu-shabu, you can add noodles for 150 yen. (I used a coupon this time) You can choose between thick and thin noodles. Finishing with ramen also leaves you fully satisfied. By the way, here is the ramen menu.

I visited the ramen restaurant "Matsutora" in the Minato Ward area, which was featured on the show "Gourmet Ramen Grand Prix". Among their ramen dishes ranging from 500 yen to 100,000 yen, the most popular one is the A5 Matsusaka beef ramen priced at 1,980 yen. Occasionally, they also offer a 10,000 yen "Lucky Gold Leaf Yamato Ramen", which is like the Romanée-Conti of standing bar taverns. I ordered both the 500 yen traditional dashi ramen and the 500 yen solo hot pot rice set from a high-class restaurant. For the ramen order form, I wrote down my preferences. The traditional dashi ramen with white leeks and bamboo shoots has a clear bonito broth that pairs well with the thin noodles. Following the instructions on how to enjoy delicious shabu-shabu, I added salt to the dashi hot pot, shabu-shabu pork belly, grated radish, and beaten egg, then enjoyed it with rice and condiments for a satisfying meal.

Ramen is usually priced at 500 yen for regular ramen, 700 yen for a traditional dashi ramen, 800 yen for tororo kombu ramen, 800 yen for a traditional ajitama ramen, 800 yen for a mountain of negi ramen, and 800 yen for Shinshu mushroom ramen. A5 Matsusaka beef ramen for 1,980 yen each, or 3,500 yen for 2. There is also a rare A5 Matsusaka beef ramen available for 11,000 yen. I was lucky enough to win a game of rock-paper-scissors with a business associate and was treated to 2 A5 Matsusaka beef ramen for 3,500 yen. After ordering ramen, you can choose options on a paper such as soup thickness, nori (seaweed) topping, green onions, noodle thickness, noodle quantity, grated daikon radish, and oil. The meat was surprisingly thick, so I had to move it to a separate plate while eating, but it was undeniably delicious! The ramen had a gentle flavor and was very tasty.

Today, I went to Akasaka with my child to try the ramen at Matsutora, a shabu-shabu restaurant that recently started serving ramen. The menu had a surprising 500 yen "Ryotei Dashi Ramen" and an unbelievable 110,000 yen "Kaiun Hisshou Kinpaku Sanno Ramen." I opted for the A5 Matsusaka Beef Sirloin Ramen (2,500 yen) instead. The ramen arrived with a large piece of Matsusaka beef and even gold leaf on top, making for an impressive presentation. You can choose the thickness of the noodles, so I went with thin noodles. Despite the luxurious appearance, the overall taste of the ramen was gentle, more like a shabu-shabu broth with plenty of mushrooms and green onions. The soup had a sweet and mild flavor, lacking the usual strong broth taste found in most ramen. It also came with nori, truffle oil, and truffle salt for flavor enhancement. The Matsusaka beef was incredibly delicious. Overall, it's a unique ramen experience that would be perfect as a finishing dish after a meal in Akasaka.

Recently, my favorite restaurant is Matsutora Lunch. It is located in the same building as Fukutora, which serves Matsusaka beef, and has excellent access from the station. This time, they opened a private room for us, so we could enjoy a leisurely lunch. Last time, I had the Daigishi beef that was on top of the ramen as shabu-shabu, and it was delicious with the broth soup and truffle salt, so this time I went with the shabu-shabu main dish. The truffle salt goes well with beef, so I had the A5 Matsusaka beef shoulder loin shabu-shabu set meal. It included A5 Matsusaka beef shoulder loin 100g, Matsutora special pork belly 50g / shoulder loin 50g, assorted vegetables, assorted Shinshu mushrooms, a set of porridge like in a traditional Japanese restaurant, cabbage, rice, pickles, and unlimited broth refills! There was also a raw egg for the porridge. The dipping sauces were ponzu and sesame. You could also enjoy it with various types of broth salt or truffle salt. Each person had their own pot for shabu-shabu, which was reassuring. The delicious broth made the rice go down easily. I liked the combination of sesame sauce for the vegetables, truffle salt for the Matsusaka beef, and ponzu for the pork belly. It was so delicious that I ended up getting a rice refill. They would add more broth when it ran low. The lunch options at this place range from 500 yen to 11,000 yen. If it's under 1,000 yen, you can enjoy the broth with dishes like mushroom and leek ramen on days you want to savor the broth, or pork shabu-shabu set meal on days you crave meat. The shabu-shabu set meal allows you to choose the amount of meat, starting from 100g, and the 500 yen porridge lunch comes with 50g of pork belly, making it a great option for someone like me who doesn't usually eat a lot of meat. The restaurant is also clean and has a luxurious atmosphere, so I plan to visit often in the future.

Store Name: Matsuzaka Gyukotsu Ramen Location: Akasaka Mitsuke Cuisine: Ramen, Shabu Shabu The other day, when I went to Buta Tora for pork shabu shabu, I heard from the staff that there is a 10,000 yen ramen available. Intrigued by this catch, my friend and I ended up making a reservation (lol). Anyway, we were really looking forward to the 10,000 yen ramen and when it arrived, it was amazing! The legendary Matsuzaka beef was placed on top of the ramen, and it was so delicious that it melted in my mouth. Even without teeth, you could eat it (lol). The Matsuzaka beef, raised by Mr. Oishi, is a rare and valuable meat. The rich and sweet flavor of the beef fat seeped into the soup, creating an incredibly flavorful and delicious broth. It was a different image from the typical ramen shop soup, with a refined and lightly seasoned soup that perfectly complemented the Matsuzaka beef. You could choose from two types of noodles, and I chose the thin noodles. If they were cooked a little more al dente, it would have been perfect.

A few minutes walk from Akasaka-Mitsuke Station! I heard rumors about a popular ramen made with the elusive Matsusaka beef called "Juminohou no Ooishi-gyu" priced at 11,000 yen, so I went with my gourmet friend to try it out. We took off our shoes and entered the restaurant. The seating was in a sunken kotatsu style with partitions for COVID-19 measures. The menu ranges from 500 yen to 110,000 yen! 110,000 yen! (I have a desire to try it once, but this time we ordered the 11,000 yen option). Juminohou no Ooishi-gyu Sirloin Ramen A5 rank top quality (BMS12) for 11,000 yen, customizable with flavor intensity, green onions, seaweed, maple radish, secret oil (white truffle oil), and thin noodles. We accidentally ended up choosing the same options as my friend. While enjoying a draft beer, we waited. Soon enough, our ramen arrived! They advised that if we prefer it rare, we should transfer it to a small dish. The golden soup, with gold leaf floating on top, had a very gentle dashi flavor. The meat melted in my mouth, giving a mysterious sensation of eating yet feeling like you haven't eaten at all. The table was equipped with white shrimp, red snapper dashi, nodoguro, and special salt for flavor variations. I would prefer the noodles to have a bit more chewiness. This menu is a must-try for meat and ramen lovers!

I've been exploring various places in Akasaka, and I found something amazing. A 110,000 yen ramen! But, I don't have the courage to order that. However, there is a 10,000 yen ramen! I impulsively ordered it. It's the "Unmei no Oinikata no Daigyu Ramen"! I wonder how to pronounce that. This ramen is made with the highest grade A5 rank "BMS12" Matsusaka beef, which is the top of Matsusaka beef that only about 10 cows are circulated in the market annually. It almost feels like a mythical beef being made into ramen, it's almost a waste! But, where else can you find such a luxurious ramen? Let's try it out! The serving time might be longer than usual ramen. While waiting excitedly, a golden shining bowl appeared. It's huge! The meat is huge too! How do I eat this?! Don't worry, they will explain it to you. You can take the meat separately and eat it with truffle salt, truffle oil, and table salt provided. The meat is quite rare, so there is a pot for one person to shabu-shabu it to your liking. The broth is a refined bonito broth, rich and subtly sweet. It's so delicious that I almost finished it before even eating the noodles. The meat is very thick and satisfying! It's well-marbled, but there is no unpleasant fat, in fact, the fat is delicious! The truffle salt was also delicious, but my recommendation is the white shrimp salt. It adds more umami flavor. The bowl is filled with plenty of mushrooms, which is unusual for ramen. But it goes well with the bonito broth and helps reduce the guilt (laughs). The soft-boiled egg is incredibly runny. I want to know the secret to making it like that. The soup is delicious! The meat is delicious! I finished it in one go. If you have room in your stomach, you can also have zosui! I was told that, but the meal was quite filling, so I couldn't reach the zosui (sweat). By the way, you can choose the type (thickness) and amount of noodles, as well as the type of condiments when ordering. I should have ordered less noodles and made zosui in hindsight (laughs). The seats are separated by partitions, so it's safe. It was quite crowded, and I had to wait for the seat to be prepared, but they were thorough with disinfection, so it's safe. Besides ramen, they also have shabu-shabu lunch, with one pot per person, which is reassuring. It takes courage to pay 10,000 yen for ramen, but the meat and broth are delicious, so when you have the chance, I highly recommend challenging it (laughs). If possible, I want someone to try the 110,000 yen one (laughs). Oh! Also, the drinks at lunch are cheap! Soft drinks start from 100 yen, which felt strange compared to the 10,000 yen ramen (laughs).

The other day, I was watching a show called "Bucket" and they introduced this restaurant. I happened to be nearby so I decided to go check it out. I tried the Matsusaka beef ramen. The meat was really delicious! It had that sweet, fatty taste you find in shabu-shabu or sukiyaki. The soup and noodles were like the finishing touch to a shabu-shabu meal. That's why I couldn't help but feel like I was having the last course. The flavor was just okay though. I wonder if it would have been different if they made it a bit richer. It was so good that it left me wanting more (laughs).

I tried the ramen at Oishi Ushi for the first time, known for its delicious broth. You can customize your order by choosing the firmness of the noodles, richness of the broth, and whether you want their secret sauce. I opted for medium thickness noodles. The ramen came topped with two large slices of rare Oishi beef, sprinkled with gold flakes, making a big impression. The restaurant has clean, individual seating areas, providing a comfortable dining experience. You can also enjoy a hot pot with the broth to cook your own meat at the table. They offer several types of salt for seasoning, with my favorite being the white truffle salt. The noodles were thicker and shorter than expected, with a texture similar to udon. The broth was not greasy, but had a gentle and flavorful taste. The ramen also came with mushrooms and a seasoned egg, making it a hearty dish. Adding their secret sauce in a separate dish enhanced the flavor with a nice truffle aroma. I enjoyed a luxurious lunch experience with both ramen and hot pot. The regular ramen is priced at under 1,000 yen, making it a great value for the quality of the broth. They also offer ramen topped with Matsusaka beef, among other tempting options. The lunch set with a hot pot starts at just 500 yen for 100g of meat, making it a great deal for those craving meat. I look forward to trying more of their menu items soon.

Recently opened in Akasaka✨ I visited with a friend. I had heard it was a ramen place, but... I was completely surprised at the entrance of the shop!! "Matsuzaka Beef Ramen" "Solo Shabu Shabu" Huh! (´°Д°｀) Ramen and shabu shabu? Yes, that's right! This place, Matsutora, is a shop where you can eat A5 Matsuzaka beef ramen! In summer, with no memories of summer due to poor health, I treated myself to the legendary Matsuzaka beef "Suminishikata's Ooishi Beef" named 'Suminishikata's Ooishi Beef Sirloin Ramen' (A5 rank highest grade) and it was amazing!! And... I met it❣️ Undoubtedly, a wonderful view! The meat, a beautiful red sirloin covered in gold powder, was so big that you couldn't even see the ramen! The large sirloin was delicious on its own, or you could shabu shabu it on the table set with a pot! The meat truly melted in your mouth... And beneath the meat was... the ramen! At first glance, it may seem inferior to the meat, but the transparent soup made from the finest dashi stock from a traditional Japanese restaurant had an elegant, deep, and gentle taste. You could choose between thin or medium-thick noodles, and I chose the chewy medium-thick noodles with plenty of mushrooms and it was delicious! To fully enjoy the delicious soup and noodles, there were still more tricks to come. With the ramen, there was a small dish for sharing, a secret truffle salt and truffle oil, and four types of dashi powder - onion, red snapper, nodoguro (blackthroat seaperch), and agedashi - on the table for flavor variations! Depending on the truffle, it leaned more towards Western cuisine, and with onion, it became richer, showing how the flavor could change so much depending on the dashi. The soup was so delicious that all the flavor variations were delicious! If I could, I thought about adding a porridge set with the meat umami in the soup, but... it was impossible... (T^T) There was so much satisfaction in eating, my stomach was full, my heart was full, and all I felt was happiness!!! The seats were separated by partitions for each person, which was nice, and when it comes to eating high-quality meat, the threshold of the shop may be high, but there are also items that are easy to challenge, such as a traditional Japanese restaurant dashi ramen for 500 yen and A5 Matsuzaka beef ramen for 1,980 yen, and you can start shabu shabu from 1,000 yen, so you can easily treat yourself to something special.

Good morning. I am a Chinese daughter-in-law. I finally went to the restaurant that I have been very curious about. It's called Matsutora, and they serve A5 Matsusaka beef ramen and solo shabu-shabu. The main dishes are Matsusaka beef ramen and shabu-shabu. The solo shabu-shabu is served in a private booth that feels like a high-class restaurant. Depending on the type and amount of meat, the special pork shabu-shabu set starts from 100g for 580 yen. The set includes cabbage and rice that you can refill. Under the meat, there are two types of mushrooms and Chinese cabbage. The dashi broth for the hot pot is delicious and you can enjoy it. You can also enjoy ochazuke and zosui as an option. The refill of dashi broth is great. The bill for two people was 1560 yen. There is also a more affordable menu option of zosui for 500 yen. They also offer high-end options. The ramen menu is also available. The cost performance is so good that I was shaking, so I will definitely visit again.
