It's one of the best ramen in Bogotá, very traditional and very tasty. The prices are ridiculously low so far (20k for the ramen and 5k for 3 gyōzas), and the quality and size are very good. A must-try experience, definitely a textbook Menya.nThe only downside is that being such a small place, you'll definitely have to wait in line for an hour, but it's necessary given the type of restaurant.

It's the best ramen in Bogotá (and the cheapest). It's not at all pretentious, the flavor is spectacular, and the ingredients and quantity are 20/10. The place is small, so you have to get there early because there are lines, but it's completely worth it.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to try the supposedly best ramen in Bogotá. I always arrive early, but there's a long line, and it doesn't move because the space is so small. Ajisen Ramen is better, though it's also crowded, but it moves quickly and is very, very delicious.
