Ramen Senmon KOMURASAKI Tenmonkan
ラーメン専門 こむらさき 天文館店
A historic Kagoshima ramen shop founded in 1950, serving a single type of ramen featuring Kurobuta chashu topped with a mountain of shredded cabbage.
Founded in Showa 25 (1950), this historic shop has no relation to the ramen shop of the same name in Kumamoto. The menu is simple, offering only Kagoshima Kurobuta chashu ramen and its large-size version. The lye-free, extra-thin noodles are served in a mild broth topped with plenty of shredded cabbage and finely chopped chashu. A bowl costs around 1,200 JPY, and chashu rice is about 450 JPY (2025 prices). It closes once sold out. No parking is available, but coin parking is nearby. It is a 1-minute walk from Tenmonkan-dori Tram Stop. There is also a branch on the B1 floor of AMU Plaza at Kagoshima-Chuo Station.
Opening hours
Approx. 11:00–18:00, Thu until 16:00, closes when sold out; Closed on the third Thursday of every month and temporarily (hours may vary by source)
