Himeji Mentetsu – A Must-Visit Ramen Destination in Himeji
Himeji Mentetsu is a well-established ramen restaurant celebrating its 11th year of operation.
We are proudly featured for 10 consecutive years on the opening page of Mapple Hyogo,
and also selected for the opening feature of Meets Regional “Men Life 2026.”
We have ranked No.1 on Tabelog in Himeji, and have been introduced many times in magazines and media as one of the city’s most popular ramen restaurants.
Our signature dish, “Tsukemen Himeji,” is a local specialty inspired by Himeji Castle.
The presentation itself is a highlight:
nori seaweed represents the castle tower,
noodles form the castle walls,
and our homemade roast pork symbolizes the stone walls.
It is a dish you can enjoy with both your eyes and your taste buds.
Our menu offers a wide variety of handmade dishes, including
tsukemen, ramen, maze noodles, tororo ramen, vegan noodles, rice bowls, and side dishes.
All items are carefully prepared in-house, including our popular homemade roast pork and Japanese fried chicken (karaage).
We also offer a rich selection of vegan options, with soy sauce, salt, miso, and curry flavors,
as well as gluten-free noodles, so guests with dietary preferences can enjoy Japanese ramen with peace of mind.
At Himeji Mentetsu, our philosophy is simple:
gratitude first, customers first—in taste, service, and cleanliness.
Our friendly staff welcomes every guest with energy and smiles every day.
English-speaking staff are always available, so international visitors can dine comfortably.
Located near Himeji Castle, we are widely known as one of the top recommended dining spots for sightseeing visitors.
Please stop by and experience authentic Japanese ramen crafted with passion and care.
