TOMA RAMEN
토마라멘 Tomaramen Toma is short for tomato — the shop serves ramen in a tomato-based broth.
Compiled from 27 blog posts read in fullSources →
A tomato-broth ramen shop in a lane off Wonhyo-ro 89-gil, a five-to-ten-minute walk from Namyeong Station. Tomato ramen is 11,000 won, the spicy version 12,000, and the real-cheese and basil versions 13,500; people add toppings such as grilled eggplant (2,000) and an onsen egg (1,000), then finish by stirring cheese risotto rice (1,500 won, free for a review) into the leftover broth. You order and pay on a tablet at your seat. We read 30 posts dated 21 September to 14 October 2026; 27 describe an actual visit, and one, about a hair salon, we set aside.

The values differ, but the periods they were written in do not overlap. This looks like a change over time rather than a disagreement, and the top row is the most recently reported. We did not confirm it with the restaurant.
What sets it apart
- Fourteen posts describe waiting: 5, 5–10, 15, 15, 20, 20, 27, 30, 30, 35–40 minutes and an hour. The longest was a weekend 12:30 arrival showing 42 parties ahead and a 180-minute estimate — they got in after about an hour. You join the list on a machine outside or through CatchTable remotely. Three posts walked straight in: once around 2 pm on a weekday, once late in the evening, once at a weekend lunch.
- The queue is outdoors. One post says there is no indoor waiting area and warns the midsummer sun would be hard going; several waited by taking photos at the mirror out front.
- Seating is built around a large shared bar. Twelve posts mention a four-top or window seats as well — one counted a 14-seat bar plus window and group tables, another one four-top and about 20 single seats. Three posts described it as all bar seating. Diners face each other across the bar; one found that awkward, another stopped noticing.
- Sixteen posts ordered and prepaid on a tablet at each seat. Twelve mention the review event that gets you the risotto rice; two arrived late in the evening and found it sold out.
3 more
- Nine posts found the spicy bowl genuinely hot, comparing it to a little hotter than Shin Ramyun or somewhere short of Buldak. One was still burning after scooping the paste out; another swapped bowls. The chilli paste arrives as a spoonful on top, so you can hold some back.
- Five posts found the bowl generous — plenty of meat by default, noodles left over. One big eater finished everything and still wanted more, advising extra noodles from the start.
- Two posts noticed a high chair by the coat rack; none of the posts visited with a child.

Where it is
We could not find this shop’s own listing on Naver Map, so the link searches for its Korean name around this spot instead.
From the station
14 posts say it is walkable from the station.
Getting inside
No post describes the floor from experience; only the address says ground floor, and one post notes it is a standalone tiled-roof building.
No post says from experience whether there is a step at the door or whether a wheelchair or stroller gets in; one post copied a listing that says wheelchair accessible. That means nobody checked, not that it is inaccessible.
No post mentions where the toilet is or whether it is split by gender.
No one mentioned: Second floor · In a basement · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Toilet inside · Accessible toilet · Separate restrooms. That is not the same as there being none — it means we could not confirm it. Worth calling ahead, and do tell us: we will put it here.

Posts that followed a TV spot
Of the 29 posts we gathered, 2 went up on a single day right after a TV spot and show no sign of a visit. They retell the broadcast, so we left them out of the counts.
We do not discard them. That a TV spot produced a burst of posts is itself something worth knowing about a place, and a star rating will not show it.

What we do not know
- Posts split 12 to 3 on whether there are any tables beyond the bar; with only one four-top reported, a group may have to wait for it.
- Posts disagree on whether the cheese bowl gets heavy: one said yes by halfway, two said no.
- Posts around September 2026 called the real-cheese bowl a new item, but someone had already eaten it by 21 September, so we do not know exactly when it arrived.
- All opening hours were copied from listings. The most common: weekdays 11:00–20:30 with a 14:30–17:00 break, weekends 11:30–21:00 with a 15:00–17:30 break, last order 30 minutes before closing. A few posts give other values, such as a 15:30 weekend break or Mon–Sat 11:00–20:00. Two say there is no regular closing day.
- Prices are as on the September–October 2026 menu; with two or three toppings a bowl reaches 14,500–19,500 won. Two posts thought it expensive for ramen.
- Many posts list the phone number 02-702-7952. Only one copied listing mentions reservations; what diners actually used was CatchTable's remote queue.
