Ichijoryu Ganko Ramen Yotsuya Arakicho is a compact ramen shop on the first floor of Maison de Yotsuya in Funamachi, Shinjuku. Set in the backstreets near Yotsuya-sanchome Station, this current branch carries on the distinctive Ganko ramen lineage associated with hidden entrances, a counter-focused setup, and a devoted local following.
The menu changes with the day and the ingredients available. Regular announcements feature clear shio and shoyu ramen, the concentrated bowl known as “100,” and special broths built around seafood, poultry, or other seasonal ingredients. Pork, noodles, nori, bamboo shoots, and the shop’s “devil meat” may appear depending on the bowl, so the official account is the best source for that day’s selection.
Service generally runs from morning into early afternoon, but the shop keeps irregular closing days and may finish early when soup sells out. Check the official X account before traveling, especially when a limited bowl is announced. The small counter and daily-changing menu make this a focused stop for ramen fans exploring Yotsuya and Arakicho.
