Located just a 3-minute walk from Ebisu Station, this stylish ramen shop specializes in tanrei-kei (light and refined) ramen, crafted with pure natural spring water from Mount Afuri in Kanagawa and a carefully simmered blend of chicken and seafood. AFURI has expanded from Tokyo to Kanagawa, Hokkaido, and even overseas in the U.S. and Hong Kong. The Ebisu branch is open until 5 a.m. and operates as a completely cashless restaurant.

    AFURI Ramen is perfect for people who don't like strong flavors!

    The most distinctive feature of this ramen is its yuzu broth. You can smell the subtle yuzu aroma as soon as it's served, and the first sip of the soup is incredibly refreshing.

    The broth is savory, slightly sweet, and smooth, without any of the greasiness of typical ramen. Paired with thin noodles and tender chicken chashu, every bite is comforting. Even after finishing the whole bowl, it doesn't feel heavy. It's perfect when you're tired from shopping and want a bowl of ramen.

    If you usually like light ramen, AFURI is definitely worth trying!

    AFURI is famous for its signature yuzu shio ramen. Unlike the usual rich tonkotsu ramen, the broth is simmered with chicken bones, seafood, and vegetables, then finished with fresh yuzu peel. It has a delicate citrus aroma and tastes light, subtly sweet, and never greasy.

    The noodles are springy and soak up the broth nicely, adding a hint of yuzu fragrance to every bite. The seared chashu is tender, while the sous vide chicken is juicy and flavorful. Toppings like bamboo shoots and a soft-boiled egg give the bowl even more depth.

    The interior is simple and comfortable, and the food comes out quickly. Whether you're trying it for the first time or you're a ramen fan, you'll appreciate how refined and different it is from traditional ramen. If you enjoy light yet distinctive Japanese ramen, AFURI is definitely worth a try. It's also a popular must-visit ramen shop for many travelers to Japan.

    If you always order tonkotsu ramen, it’s definitely worth switching things up!

    AFURI is best known for its yuzu shio ramen. The broth is light and refreshing, with the savory flavors of chicken and seafood plus a subtle hint of yuzu that makes a great first impression. I was worried it might taste bland, but not at all—it became more delicious with every sip, and I couldn’t resist finishing the entire bowl of broth. This is a great choice when you’re craving ramen but don’t want anything too rich or greasy.

    If you’re traveling to Tokyo and love ramen, you absolutely can’t miss the super popular AFURI Ramen.

    My top recommendation this time is their yuzu shio ramen. It’s light, refreshing, and full of depth. The hot broth has a rich chicken aroma with a gentle hint of yuzu, and it never feels greasy. The more you sip, the smoother it gets!

    The noodles have just the right texture, and the aroma of the seared chashu makes every bite unforgettable. It was so good that before heading home, I even went to a convenience store to buy AFURI instant ramen so I could bring a little taste of Tokyo back with me.

    If you like lighter-style ramen, AFURI’s yuzu shio ramen is definitely worth adding to your Tokyo must-eat list!
