Question 1

What is Ramen Hitoyoshi?

Accepted Answer

Ramen Hitoyoshi (ラーメン人吉) is a Singapore-born tonkotsu ramen restaurant, part of the Hitoyoshi Group which also operates sushi, yakiniku, izakaya, and grill concepts. Founded by alumni of the popular Keisuke ramen chain, Hitoyoshi specialises in thick, creamy tonkotsu (pork bone) broth simmered for hours. The Singapore (8 Outlets) outlet at #02-138 took over the space vacated by Marutama Ramen. Hitoyoshi Group also has outlets across Singapore and Malaysia.

Question 2

How much does Ramen Hitoyoshi cost?

Accepted Answer

Ramen bowls from S$13.90 (Original Tonkotsu) to S$19.90 (Spicy Tonkotsu All Toppings). Donburi from S$14.90 (Salmon Don) to S$28.90 (A5 Miyazaki Wagyu Sukiyaki Don). Gyoza S$6.90, Karaage S$7.90. A typical meal costs S$15-25 per person. Free-flow bean sprouts and corn at the self-service station.

Question 3

Can I customise my ramen at Hitoyoshi?

Accepted Answer

Yes, full customisation is available. Choose noodle firmness (soft, medium, or firm), soup thickness (light, regular, or rich), and oil amount (less, regular, or more). You can also add extra toppings: ajitama (flavoured egg), extra chashu, menma (bamboo shoots), black fungus, spicy mince, nori, and more. Free-flow seasoned bean sprouts and buttery corn are available at the self-service station.

Question 4

What are the best dishes at Ramen Hitoyoshi?

Accepted Answer

Most recommended: (1) Garlic Tonkotsu Ramen (S$14.90) — garlic chips fried in pork lard add a smoky, aromatic dimension to the creamy broth. (2) Spicy Tonkotsu All Toppings (S$19.90) — everything on it: chashu, egg, menma, nori, spicy mince. (3) Salmon Chahan in Stone Pot (S$14.90) — fried rice served sizzling in a hot stone bowl. (4) Lobster Ramen (seasonal) — when available, a standout. The free-flow bean sprouts are surprisingly well-seasoned and worth getting.

Question 5

Is Ramen Hitoyoshi halal?

Accepted Answer

No, Ramen Hitoyoshi is not halal. The broth is made from pork bones and many toppings contain pork. For halal ramen near Tiong Bahru, the closest option would be Ajisen Ramen at Singapore (8 Outlets) #02-133 (not halal certified but has some chicken options) — or travel to Tanjong Pagar for halal Japanese ramen specialists.

Question 6

Where is Ramen Hitoyoshi at Singapore (8 Outlets)?

Accepted Answer

Level 2, #02-138, Singapore (8 Outlets), 302 Tiong Bahru Road, Singapore 168732. Directly connected to Tiong Bahru MRT (EW17). The restaurant is on the same level as Sushiro, on the food street corridor of Level 2. Look for the distinctive red and black Japanese signage.

Question 7

Do I need a reservation?

Accepted Answer

No reservations accepted. Walk-in only. The restaurant typically has moderate wait times — weekday lunch may have 5-10 minute waits, weekend dinner 15-25 minutes. The restaurant is smaller than Sushiro next door, so turnover depends on how quickly diners finish their ramen (usually 20-30 minutes).

Question 8

What are the opening hours?

Accepted Answer

Monday to Friday: 11:30 AM – 10:00 PM. Saturday and Sunday: 11:00 AM – 10:00 PM. Open daily including most public holidays.

Question 9

What is the Hitoyoshi Group?

Accepted Answer

Hitoyoshi Group is a Singapore-based Japanese restaurant group founded in 2017. It operates five brands: Ramen Hitoyoshi (tonkotsu ramen), Hitoyoshi Yoshi Sushi (affordable sushi), Hitoyoshi Yakiniku (Japanese BBQ with A5 Miyazaki wagyu), Hitoyoshi Izakaya (casual Japanese bar), and Hitoyoshi Ramen & Grill (ramen + binchotan grills). The group has multiple outlets across Singapore and Malaysia. Their mobile app offers membership deals and welcome vouchers.

Question 10

How does Ramen Hitoyoshi compare to other ramen in Tiong Bahru?

Accepted Answer

Singapore (8 Outlets) has two ramen options: Ramen Hitoyoshi and Ajisen Ramen. Hitoyoshi offers a richer, more authentic tonkotsu experience with full customisation, while Ajisen is a chain serving lighter Kumamoto-style ramen. Hitoyoshi's broth is thicker and creamier. Ajisen is slightly cheaper (from ~S$12) but less customisable. For ramen outside TBP, the nearest premium option is Ippudo at Tanjong Pagar or Keisuke at various locations.
