This was 150% worth the hour and half wait time. We got to the place at 11am (30mins before opening time) and there were already 26 people in front of us. Take some entertainment with you because you will be waiting at the very least...1hr to get in. We ordered the Deluxe Tantanmen and it was divine. The broth is so full of flavour (slightly on the sour side) but absolutely delicious. The coriander on the side qas perfect (you have to order this separately). The serving size is quite decent so go with an appetite! Also, orders are placed through a vending machine and it only accepts 1,000 yen notes. Enjoy!More

This is certainly the best ramen I ate. We came at 18:00 when it opened , and had to wait for 2 hours in line!!! Small place. 10 people eat at a time. There's a machine in the entrance where you order ( they help...you...) and you can choose excellent toppings for your soup and tasty side dishes. I had the soya flavoured ramen, my friends had the spicy... and we all loved it!!!! Highly recommended!!!More

Wow, this place is amazing. I am always skeptical of Michelin Star restaurants (they are usually about fancy food, not tasty food!) but this place exceeded my expectations! We arrived at 10:15 for an 11:30 Opening. We were #4 and 5 in line (which means...we got the first seating as there are only 10 seats there). We received a menu (in Japanese and English) and prepped our order so when we went in, we were ready. You must pay cash. You but tickets at the machine, take the tickets, and then sit down. Everything we had was excellent! The service was awesome. I couldn’t have been happier with this meal and experience!More

We had to stand (sit on a metal fence) for an hour and ten minutes. It was really hot that day so we were given umbrellas by the staff during the wait. We were given a menu before entering, which was labelled in English and...had numbers next to each option. Using the machine to select the order was really easy and the staff helped. The food was quality, worth every penny, which wasn’t a lot. We had orders of lots of different ramen and toppings, and all agreed it was the best thing we’d eaten that week in Tokyo. Definitely go if you have the time, as we entered as a five, the staff waited until there were five seats free and let us all go in together. I think there were around 10 seats in total so maybe call ahead if you have a party bigger than that.More

First of all let me clarify one point. This got a Michelin guide, and not a Michelin star. Small difference but a difference nevertheless. Cons- Long long wait on the street. we waited for about 2 hours with no idea on how long the wait...time was. would have been nice for staff to inform us Pros- The best Ramen we had in tokyo. The wait i guess was worth it. The Hot Tantanmen ramen was the best of the lot.More

What a disappointment! How Nakiryu earned a Michelin Star is beyond me. Come if you enjoy a long wait for a bland bowl of raman with curt staff urging you to eat quickly so they can get the next customer in.

What can I say that others haven’t! It earned a Michelin Star for its Tantanmen ramen! It was heavenly orange light broth w tender pork cuttings and shrimp wonton and egg as topping and add the extra noodles! The short line was 1.5 hours long...getting there st 130 and inside by 3 pm. Definitely worth the wait!More
