Mita Seimen's Commitment to Excellence

Mita Seimen takes immense pride in their craft. Known for their rich tonkotsu seafood broth, the restaurant has perfected a method of slow-cooking to draw out the maximum flavor from both pork bones and seafood. The key to their renowned noodles lies in the choice of high-quality wheat flour, ensuring they maintain an exceptional aroma and chewiness. Customers can choose from different portion sizes at the same price, guaranteeing a fulfilling meal.

Premium Thick Noodles

The prominent thick noodles at Mita Seimen are made from a blend of several premium flours. The ratio of water is meticulously adjusted depending on the day’s temperature and humidity levels, and the cooking time is tailored to the noodle’s condition — ensuring they achieve a perfect al dente texture. The final step involves a swift rinse in cold water, resulting in noodles that are both chewy and flavorful.

Flavorful Tsukemen Sauce

The restaurant's signature dipping sauce is a true testament to their craft, combining intense pork and seafood flavors with selected ingredients. Every step in the sauce-making process is performed with precision to provide customers with the best possible experience.
