All 27 Restaurants Compared

Ichiran Ramen

Causeway Bay·$$

Tonkotsu with Garlic

Base ramen with the signature rich garlic oil swirled throughout the broth

Tip: If you plan to go back to work, maybe skip this. Garlic breath is real

Butao Ramen

Central·$$

Black King

Tonkotsu broth with black garlic oil, squid ink, minced pork, and deep umami notes

Tip: The squid ink adds visual drama but also a subtle briny undertone. Not for those who find squid off-putting

Tsukemen Gyorai

Wan Chai·$$

Cold Ramen (Hiyamen)

HKD65.00

Summer option with chilled noodles and a refreshing dipping broth, available year-round

Tip: Order with a side of ice water to regulate temperature as you eat

Kamitora Tonkotsu

Wan Chai·$$

Red Tora - Spicy

Tonkotsu base with added chili powder and red pepper oil, creating a mild-to-medium heat

Tip: The spice doesn't overpower the tonkotsu—it's balanced. If you can't handle heat at all, skip this

Kamitora Tonkotsu

Wan Chai·$$

God of Tora Tonkotsu

Original tonkotsu broth with pork belly, pork shoulder, marinated egg, and bamboo shoots

Tip: This is the gateway tonkotsu. The broth is milky and rich but not heavy. Drink every last drop

Kamitora Tonkotsu

Wan Chai·$$

Kamitora Special

Full-loaded tonkotsu with double pork belly, meatballs, black fungus, bamboo, seaweed, egg, and onion

Tip: Go here if you want to sample everything at once. This bowl is a compilation of all their proteins and sides

Ichiran Ramen

Causeway Bay·$$

Natural Tonkotsu Ramen

Single-style tonkotsu broth with pork belly chashu, soft-boiled egg, sesame seeds, and nori

Tip: The tonkotsu here is lighter than most Hong Kong versions—it's brewed for a shorter time. Cleaner, more delicate

Butao Ramen

Central·$$

Butao Tonkotsu

Signature creamy pork tonkotsu broth with tender pork belly chashu, soft-boiled egg, nori, and scallions

Tip: The noodles are wavy and slightly chewy. They're the right thickness to carry broth without falling apart

Tsukemen Gyorai

Wan Chai·$$

Mega Spicy Tsukemen

HKD75.00

For heat seekers—the signature broth turned fiery with chili oil and Sichuan peppercorns

Tip: Pair with rice or a soft drink; the broth is too intense to drink on its own

#10

Ichiran Ramen

Causeway Bay·$$

Tonkotsu with Black Garlic Oil

Base tonkotsu infused with aged black garlic oil, adding earthiness and complexity

Tip: Black garlic oil separates from the broth as it cools. Eat immediately while it's emulsified

#11

Butao Ramen

Central·$$

Green King - Basil & Parmesan

Tonkotsu broth with fresh basil, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, and Mediterranean-fusion toppings

Tip: Don't expect traditional ramen here. This is comfort food with Italian accent marks

#12

Butao Ramen

Central·$$

Red King - Spicy

Tonkotsu base with chili oil, miso, sesame oil, minced pork, and controlled heat

Tip: The sesame oil here is key—it adds a nutty backdrop that makes the heat feel less sharp

#13

Tsukemen Gyorai

Wan Chai·$$

Classic Tonkotsu Tsukemen

HKD68.00

Thin noodles with creamy pork bone dipping broth made from 50kg of pork and chicken bones simmered for a full day

Tip: Start here if it's your first tsukemen experience—the balanced, rich broth coats the noodles perfectly without overwhelming

#14

Ichiran Ramen

Causeway Bay·$$

Tonkotsu with Extra Chashu

Base ramen with generous double portion of pork belly chashu slices

Tip: Ask them to sear it slightly if you want more texture contrast instead of the default soft consistency

#15

Tsukemen Gyorai

Wan Chai·$$

Curry Tsukemen

HKD75.00

Spiced dipping broth with warm curry undertones, unique to the Hong Kong location

Tip: The curry rounds out the richness of the broth without aggressive spice

#16

Kamitora Tonkotsu

Wan Chai·$$

Black Tora - Seared Garlic Oil

Tonkotsu broth infused with black garlic oil, creating an umami-forward, darker tone without heat

Tip: The garlic oil coats the noodles in a way that standard tonkotsu doesn't. Slurp harder to get all the oil off the bowl surface

#17

Shui Kee Coffee

Sheung Wan·$

Instant Noodles with Egg (蛋麍)

HKD24.00

Quick comfort food: instant ramen noodles in broth with a fried egg on top.

Tip: Not gourmet, but hits the spot during off-hours. Great late afternoon snack if you missed breakfast.

#18

Tsukemen Gyorai

Wan Chai·$$

Seafood Tsukemen

HKD72.00

Dipping broth enhanced with fish essence from sardines, mackerel, anchovies, and bonito

Tip: Best for fans of umami depth who find standard tonkotsu one-dimensional

#19

Tak Yu Restaurant

Wan Chai·$

Demae Instant Noodles with Egg

HKD25.00

Classic Japanese Demae instant noodles served in broth with a runny egg yolk mixed in

Tip: This is cheap comfort food done right—perfect at 2am after drinks in Wan Chai

#20

Kamitora Tonkotsu

Wan Chai·$$

Upgraded Pork Belly Ramen

Premium tonkotsu with thick-cut Kurobuta pork belly, half-boiled egg, scallions, and fresh nori

Tip: The Kurobuta belly is noticeably more marbled and tender than the standard version. Worth the premium

#21

Butao Ramen

Central·$$

Ramen with Extra Toppings

Customizable base with choice of extra chashu, egg, nori, or vegetables at no additional charge

Tip: The extra egg is the best value add—the kitchen hand-boils them fresh daily

#2293% recommend

Tsuta

Causeway Bay·$$

Shoyu Ramen with Egg

HKD113.00

Tokyo-style soy-based ramen with silky noodles and a perfectly cooked ajitsuke tamago.

Menya Musashi

Tsim Sha Tsui·$$

Tonkotsu Ramen

HKD85.00

Rich pork bone broth with silky noodles and tender char siu.

Tsuta

Causeway Bay·$$

Duck Ramen

HKD125.00

Rich broth made from duck bones, topped with sliced duck breast char siu.

Menya Musashi

Tsim Sha Tsui·$$

Tonkotsu Ramen with Soft-Boiled Egg

HKD95.00

Tonkotsu with an additional perfectly cooked ajitsuke tamago.

Tsuta

Causeway Bay·$$

Shio Ramen

HKD113.00

Salt-based broth with a lighter, more delicate flavor profile than shoyu.

Tip: Order shio if you're eating ramen for the first time or want something lighter. It's the gateway to understanding why Tsuta matters.

Menya Musashi

Tsim Sha Tsui·$$

Tonkotsu Black Garlic Ramen

HKD92.00

Tonkotsu broth infused with black garlic oil for depth and aroma.

Tip: The mayu (black garlic oil) settles to the top. Mix it in at the beginning so it distributes evenly through the broth.
