01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Set within the 3th-floor food court of Tokyo Solamachi at Tokyo Skytree Town, RAMEN EXPRESS IPPUDO offers an easy stop for a quick, piping-hot bowl of ramen in the midst of sightseeing or shopping. Even in the lively food court atmosphere, ordering and pickup move swiftly, letting you enjoy authentic Hakata ramen without a long wait.
Smooth Umami with Shiromaru and Deep Spice with Akamaru
At the core of the menu are Ippudo's signature Shiromaru Tonkotsu and Akamaru Tonkotsu. Shiromaru delivers the mellow savor of simmered pork bones in a smooth, light-bodied broth that avoids heavy greasiness, pairing naturally with thin straight noodles. Akamaru incorporates a special fragrant oil and spicy miso into the soup, adding depth, warmth, and gentle heat as you eat. For those craving more greens, vegetable versions of both Shiromaru and Akamaru provide a substantial, topping-packed alternative.
Rounding Out the Meal with Gyoza and Rice Bowls
Alongside the noodles, petite Hakata-style bite-size gyoza offer an effortless side. Hungry diners can round out their meal with set options that bundle gyoza with seasoned chashu rice or spicy mentaiko pollack roe rice, or order Hakata's classic kaedama noodle refill. There is also a children's meal complete with mini ramen and snacks, making the spot comfortable whether visiting as a family or dining solo.
