Introducing Menya Naruto
Originally known for its rich and flavorful miso ramen, Menya NARUTO has made a name for itself by importing authentic miso straight from Japan. While miso remains a signature offering, this ramen shop also serves Jiro-style ramen, niboshi (dried sardine) ramen, and even a refreshing yuzu ramen—available exclusively at their Sukhumvit 26 location.
Inside the Restaurant
Conveniently Located in Central Bangkok
Menya NARUTO operates two branches in Bangkok: one about a 10-minute walk from Thong Lo and another just steps from Phrom Phong BTS Station, making it easily accessible whether you’re commuting or exploring the area.
The shop, which opened in 2022, still feels new and well-maintained. It spans three floors:
- First floor: three 4-seat tables and one 2-seat table
- Second floor: eight counter seats
- Third floor: restrooms
Today’s Order
Niboshi Ramen – A Delicate Yet Flavorful Bowl
Unlike some niboshi broths that carry a strong fishy aroma, this one is surprisingly mild and well-balanced, making it easy to enjoy even for first-timers. The highlight, however, is the firm, curly noodles that offer a satisfying bite and pair perfectly with the broth.
I ordered the Medium size (260 THB)—Large is available at 320 THB. While the medium bowl was delicious, it might not be quite enough if you’re a hungry male diner ordering just ramen.
The toppings include:
- Sliced green onions
- Menma (bamboo shoots)
- Half a soft-boiled egg
- A sheet of seaweed
- Two slices of chashu (braised pork)
- A touch of yuzu for a citrusy twist
The yuzu adds a refreshing note that elevates both the aroma and flavor. Initially, I found the soup a bit light, but after adding fresh garlic, the depth of flavor really came through—it was fantastic.
Don’t Miss the Takana Rice
The takana rice (60 THB) is a must-try. The slight spiciness of the pickled mustard greens pairs wonderfully with plain white rice and complements the ramen beautifully. For comparison, plain white rice is 40 THB, so the takana version offers much better value.
