Leave it to Nate to do all the research for me on Nantsuttei. AND, leave it to me to say that you really need to visit one of their many locations in Tokyo at least once! Nantsuttei's ramen is unmistakenly impressive. It must be the kuro mayu. All kidding aside, this creamy bowl of tonkotsu ramen is da sh**! Furuya Ichirô is definitely doing something right.
From Shinagawa Station take the main exit towards Takanawadai and head south in the direction of the tracks. Nantsuttei will be located on your left in the ramen park called Shinatatsu and it'll be the first ramen-ya you see. Order from the ticket machine and wait to be seated. Open everyday from 11am to 10pm.

Recently in Tokyo. Asked bell captain where to eat Ramen. He directed us to Shinagawa Station. About a five minute walk from the hotel. Luckily walked into the first shop we saw which was Nantsuttei. Couldnt make heads or tails of the coupon machine (limited japanese). One of the waiters saw our dilemna and came to our rescue. With his help ordered two bowls of their house ramen which came with a slice of pork, seaweed, bean sprouts, green onions. Also ordered side of sliced pork and gyoza. Enjoyed the ramen immensely. In Hawaii grew up on saimin, which is basically the same thing, same type of noodle, and soup base. This one was a great bowl of flavor.
