About this spot
Masutani serves up hearty bowls of rich tonkotsu ramen that are the real deal, with tender chashu pork and a savory broth that lingers on the palate. The restaurant's no-frills atmosphere in Kawaramachi focuses entirely on delivering a comforting bowl to weary travelers after a day of exploring Kyoto's temples.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the tonkotsu ramen early as it sells out quickly during lunch hours.
- Expect a communal seating arrangement where you sit at long tables rather than private booths.
- Ask for extra garlic or chili oil if you want to cut through the richness of the pork broth.
