We had a 14,900 won Fukuoka-style tonkotsu ramen set and a 15,900 won assorted katsu set at the counter seats.

It is so close to the station that it is wonderfully accessible, and the building's underground parking is free for two hours, so bringing a car was easy too. A huge red lantern and the phrase “Fukuoka within walking distance” welcomed us at the entrance, and I stepped inside feeling excited. ![Entrance with a red lantern and a Fukuoka sign](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-04-tev3n-900.webp) ![Entrance of Hongdae Gureume Incheon Nonhyeon Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-05-10e9k-900.webp) The standing sign in front lists the hours (11:30–21:30, last order at 21:00). There is no break time, so it is easy to drop by whenever you like. Each table has a tablet for ordering, so we could browse the menu at our leisure and order easily. There is also detailed information about an event offering salmon sushi or takoyaki when you write a receipt review, so it may be worth keeping in mind when you visit. ![Restaurant ordering and event information](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-06-8h50h-900.webp) ![Restaurant ordering and event information](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-07-1oypv-900.webp) ![Restaurant ordering and event information](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-08-1jev2-900.webp) ## A warm interior with counter and table seating Inside, soft lighting and wood furnishings come together for a warm, tranquil atmosphere. Japanese-style posters on the walls and cute figurines were a delight to look at, while the seating was neatly arranged from counter seats ideal for dining alone to tables comfortable for couples and families. It was perfect for a date course!! ![Restaurant interior with Japanese-style decor and seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-09-1ihj1-900.webp) There was a wait when we visited, but counter seats were open, so we asked and were able to go straight in and eat!! I had read that this place often has a long wait, so it was our lucky day haha 🍀 ![Hongdae Gureume menu and information sheet](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-10-ye5gd-900.webp) ![Hongdae Gureume menu and information sheet](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-11-z4hbf-900.webp) ![Hongdae Gureume menu and information sheet](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-12-bhyyw-900.webp) Once seated, we looked through the menu and the information sheet provided. It kindly explains everything from Hongdae Gureume's brand story to handy tips for enjoying ramen, so it was fun reading while we waited for our food. They were also running a guaranteed-prize stick-draw event for purchases of ₩30,000 or more, adding a little extra fun. ![Table setting before ordering the ramen set](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-13-1slwm-900.webp) ## Fukuoka-style tonkotsu ramen set At last, our ramen set arrived! It costs ₩14,900 for the Fukuoka-style tonkotsu broth version, and as befits a set meal, one tray was generously filled with rich tonkotsu ramen, plump inari sushi (seasoned tofu pockets filled with rice), fresh salad, and crisp fried items. It passed the visual test from the start. ![Tonkotsu ramen and inari sushi set](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-14-2oi56-845.webp) ![A tray of the tonkotsu ramen set](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-15-1y1wq-770.webp) ![Fried items and sides in the ramen set](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-16-1o4hg-900.webp) The inari sushi included in the set had plenty of nutty toppings, adding texture and savory flavor. The refreshing salad and neatly served side dishes also cut through the richness of the ramen completely, making it a satisfying combination. ![Inari sushi and salad sides](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-17-1gtz6-900.webp) After a spoonful of the tonkotsu ramen broth, I picked up a freshly fried shrimp tempura! The batter was incredibly crisp, while the inside was full of springy shrimp—a textbook case of crispy outside, tender inside. The chicken karaage (Japanese fried chicken) that came with it was exceptionally nutty and delicious right to the end. ![Shrimp tempura and chicken karaage](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-18-175ip-900.webp) ## 350-hour-aged Korean pork Assorted Katsu A Set Next came the Assorted Katsu A Set (₩15,900), made with domestic Korean pork carefully aged for 350 hours. With hot rice, miso soup, dipping sauce, and wasabi all neatly arranged, it made for a perfect full meal. ![A full Assorted Katsu A Set meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet-19-jz3mo-900.webp) Beneath the crisp coating, the soft, moist meat was full of juices, and a nutty richness spread with every bite. ## Where it is - Hongdae Gureume Incheon Nonhyeon Branch (홍대구루메 인천논현점) (홍대구루메 인천논현점) - 202, 2nd floor, iFlex Building, 17 Nongojae-ro 123beon-gil, Namdong-gu, Incheon, South Korea (인천광역시 남동구 논고개로123번길 17 아이플렉스빌딩 2층 202호) - 인천광역시 남동구 논고개로123번길 17 아이플렉스빌딩 2층 202호 - 37.4018339, 126.7230094 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%ED%99%8D%EB%8C%80%EA%B5%AC%EB%A3%A8%EB%A9%94%20%EC%9D%B8%EC%B2%9C%EB%85%BC%ED%98%84%EC%A0%90/@37.4018339,126.7230094,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@bupyeong-table-lamp/incheon-nonhyeon-fukuoka-ramen-gourmet/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
