[2025 Nago Restaurant] Travel Guide for Ramen Danbo Nago Branch (Updated Jul)

Nanjimura Ramen, which won the Kyushu Ramen Grand Prix in 2002, has become one of the most popular ramen spots for tourists visiting Okinawa. To avoid the long queues in Naha, I decided to visit the branch in Nago for dinner. As soon as the doors opened, I was able to get in with only a few minutes of waiting. The ordering process is quite typical of Kyushu-style ramen shops. First, you select your desired meal on a self-service vending machine, pay, and then wait for the staff to guide you to your seat. You'll be given a sheet where you can customize your ramen preferences, such as choosing thick or thin noodles, firm or soft texture, whether to add green onions, spice level, and the richness of the broth. The shop has limited seating, with only eight counter seats and four tables at the back, allowing the staff to precisely control the timing of cooking and serving the ramen. I ordered the signature egg tonkotsu ramen with medium spice and thin noodles. I genuinely believe that thin noodles better absorb the aroma of the tonkotsu broth. The soup is somewhat reminiscent of Ichiran Ramen but less salty and not overly greasy. By the time I finished my meal and stepped outside, a long queue had already formed. The shop is conveniently located near the beach, making it a memorable experience whether you come here to recharge after water activities or enjoy a sunset stroll by the sea after your meal. 📍Address: 〒905-0021 Okinawa Prefecture, Nago City, Higashie 5-10-36 🚗 Access: A 10-minute walk from Yofuke Station on the Nago bus line.

During the five-day and four-night self-driving tour in Okinawa, I couldn't help but visit Nuanmu. This time, I ate at Nuanmu Shiman. There are several parking spaces in front of the store. I arrived at the store after 12 o'clock, and there were not many tables of customers. No need to queue at all, which is the advantage of the non-tourist area. Orders are made from meal vending machines. After paying, you can fill in a customized order. With the current exchange rate of Taiwan dollars, it tastes even better😋 🕰️Business hours: 11:00-00:00 🏖️Atmosphere/facilities: parking space 📍Address: 〒901-0301 Awagen 1556-1 Shiman City, Okinawa Prefecture 💰Average consumption per person: ¥1,000-2,000 💞Recommendation reason: affordable price, delicious ramen

When it comes to Okinawa ramen, Danbo Ramen (暖暮ラーメン) is a must-visit local favorite. Originating from Kyushu, Danbo is renowned for its rich tonkotsu broth and smooth thin noodles, capturing the essence of Japanese ramen in every bite. The tonkotsu broth here is simmered for a long time, resulting in a thick, flavorful soup that is not overly greasy, with a natural sweetness and rich meaty aroma. Paired with springy thin noodles and seared chashu, the melt-in-your-mouth texture leaves a lasting impression. For those who enjoy bold flavors, adding the special spicy sauce is recommended, enhancing the layers of taste and providing a mildly spicy kick with every bite. The restaurant offers a self-service condiment bar, allowing diners to customize their ramen with garlic, sesame, or chili powder to suit their personal taste. The simple ordering machine system also ensures a quick and easy dining experience, letting you enjoy a steaming bowl of delicious ramen in no time. When in Okinawa, don't just stick to Okinawa soba; occasionally indulging in authentic Kyushu tonkotsu ramen to savor the rich Japanese flavors is one of the best culinary experiences during your trip.

When planning a trip to Japan, one of the must-try foods is ramen. Each region has its own unique flavors, and Japanese ramen is already famous worldwide. However, if you visit Okinawa, you absolutely cannot miss 'Danbo Ramen'. Danbo Ramen has several locations in Okinawa, so you can fit it into any itinerary. I visited the Nago branch. Danbo Ramen is especially known for its 'Paekka Ramen' and 'Spicy Ramen'. Paekka Ramen is one of Danbo Ramen's signature dishes. As the name suggests, this ramen is loaded with green onions and sesame seeds. The fragrant taste of green onions combined with the rich broth made from simmering pork bones for hours creates a deep flavor. The refreshing taste of green onions and the rich broth blend perfectly, making it irresistible once you try it. If you love green onions, this ramen is definitely the best choice. The nutty flavor of sesame seeds adds to the overall taste, making it truly exceptional! For those who love spicy food, I recommend the Spicy Ramen. Danbo Ramen's Spicy Ramen is not just about the heat; it captures your taste buds without overwhelming the basic flavor of the ramen. The spiciness is strong, but it has a deep umami flavor that makes it hard to stop eating once you start. I highly recommend both dishes! It's perfect for two people to order both and share👍🏻 If you must eat ramen in Japan, make sure to try Danbo Ramen in Okinawa〰️〰️🩷 📍5 Chome-10-36 Agarie, Nago, Okinawa 905-0021 Japan ⏰ 10:00-24:00
