Tantanmen Yebisu Yamashina

Located along Sanjo-dori, approximately a 5-minute walk from JR, Keihan, and Subway Yamashina Station, this is a popular Tantanmen specialty restaurant in Yamashina. The shop name "胡" (read "Ebisu") is known for its signature mild Tantanmen, which prioritizes umami over spiciness, featuring thin straight noodles in a creamy, rich sesame-based soup. In addition to the classic "Tantanmen" and "Meat Tantanmen," the menu boasts a wide variety of options including Cheese Tantanmen, Mala Tantanmen, Curry Tantanmen, Soy Milk Carbonara Tantanmen, Chilled Tantanmen, and Soupless Tantanmen. When ordering, customers can specify their preferences for noodle firmness (hard, regular, soft), soup flavor (rich, regular, light), and spiciness level (none, mild, regular, hot, and extra hot for an additional charge). If no preference is stated, all items will be served "regular." Those who are not fond of spicy food should inform the staff of their preference for "mild spiciness" or "no spiciness" when ordering. Set menus also offer a satisfying selection of sides such as Karaage (fried chicken), rice, and Aburi Chashu-don (seared pork rice bowl). The restaurant operates in two shifts for lunch and dinner on weekdays, and is open all day on weekends and holidays. Cashless payments (cards, QR codes) are also accepted.
