Description: Menbakaichidai has been a staple in the community for 30 years - burning through the competition with its famous "Fire Ramen." I innocently assumed that the ramen earned its name for being spicy, as are most "fire" dishes in the culinary world. It wasn't until I was inches away from a four-foot flame, that I finally realized this restaurant had taken things to the next level. From yahoo travel post

The ramen is good but very touristy as it is pricier than most ramen places but hey, you come here for the "experience". It's a fun place and they always take a video of you with your own camera.

Lovely place. The queue was not ling,however, gets busier. Git a seat under 30 mins. They ask your mother tongue, and prepare safty instructions for you before serving ramen,which is very considerate. Chef,with the boss name badge, is s
Absolutely amazing, and manages to talk to everyone, very cheerful and friendly. Ramen serving is hot, and interesting. However, noodles in it did not impress me much. Gyoza was nice and rice too. Chef can give you some sightseeing advise along with his own Hidden gems of kyoto guide, which I found interesting and will use next time I'm in Kyoto. You can also buy chef's no ramen no life t-shirt as well. Overall very nice experience and people. Food was ok. P.s. they also record video of you when they serve ramen on your phone which I found very nice of them.

Fantastic experience, short wait but when we got in it was brilliant. Ramen was fantastic and beers were extremely cold.

This is a must for anyone who wants good ramen and a one of a kind experience. The staff are super friendly and welcoming. The food was some of the best i’ve ever had. They take photos and videos for you. It was more expensive than the other meals we’ve ate on the trip but worth it for the experience and the amount/quality of the food. 100% recommend everyone to check it out.
