Sichuan Cuisine Ryunoko is an authentic Sichuan restaurant founded in 1977, located on the basement floor of a building in Jingumae near Harajuku Station, just a step away from the lively hustle of Takeshita Street. The signature dish is mapo tofu, characterized by layering sensations of numbing sansho peppercorn, chili heat, and deep umami, which draws a loyal following of guests eager to enjoy it over rice. Each dish prepared with homemade doubanjiang and chili oil boasts defined flavors, including mellow dandan noodles accented with white sesame and soy milk, tender bang bang chicken coated in a pleasantly spicy sauce, and refreshing unpaku pork served with a sweet-spicy sauce and cucumber. Many items can be ordered in a half portion, making it a joy to sample multiple dishes even in small groups. The compact interior offers 29 seats combining table seats and sofa seating for a relaxed atmosphere, with a private room available for groups starting from 2 guests. The entire premises are non-smoking, offering a lunch menu renowned for its excellent balance of portion and price, while evenings are well-suited for calm dining and dates.
