A Long-Loved Sapporo-Style Miso Ramen Shop in Okachimachi
Ezogiku has been serving Sapporo-style miso ramen since 1968 and has long been a familiar name around Okachimachi.
The shop has a distinctly old-school atmosphere, and its rich miso ramen has been enjoyed by generations of customers.
It once had locations outside Okachimachi as well, and even today, it remains the kind of place where you can see a wide range of customers, from younger ramen fans to long-time regulars.

▶ What I Tried
Miso Ramen | 味噌らーめん
The thick noodles work really well with the rich miso soup, soaking up plenty of flavor with every bite.
The stir-fried bean sprouts and minced meat add extra texture and depth, while the chashu is juicy and satisfying.
Even the menma is well seasoned and adds another layer of flavor.
Personally, this is the kind of miso ramen I could happily eat every day if there were a shop like this near me.
▶ Final Thoughts
Miso ramen is the main attraction at Ezogiku, but the menu also includes other dishes, and the handmade gyoza are especially popular.
If you want to experience an old-school Sapporo-style miso ramen shop in Tokyo, this is one of those places that feels rooted in the neighborhood rather than built around trends.
