Mendokoro Toritani

Opened in 2014, Mendokoro Toritani is an additive-free ramen shop specializing in chicken, a frequent honoree on the 'Ramen WEST Top 100' list. It offers two main styles: the light, clear-broth 'Tori Soba' (Chicken Soba) and the rich 'Jukusei Shoyu Tori Soba' (Aged Soy Sauce Chicken Soba), which is reminiscent of Tenkaippin's distinctive broth. Both achieve a deep umami flavor despite being free of artificial additives. The homemade flat noodles boast a rich wheat aroma, and the two types of chashu – sous-vide chicken breast and pork – are also highly praised. Limited-time menus are frequently announced on Instagram, with a rich variety including curry ramen, abura soba (oil soba), and seasonal chilled options. The shop features a lively atmosphere where the owner efficiently manages everything solo. Orders are taken verbally. For limited menus and temporary closures, please check the official Instagram.
