# Indian tomato ramen set at a Seongsu basement ramen shop: Menya Pomo - By On-gyeol (https://superchart.com/en/@yellow-awning-meals/) - Written Sep 17, 2026 - Local places › Restaurants › Seongdong, Seoul - Sponsored: This post was written as a sponsored store visit. - English edition: https://superchart.com/en/@yellow-awning-meals/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/ - Also in: [한국어](https://superchart.com/ko/@yellow-awning-meals/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/index.md) ## In short Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch is a tomato ramen restaurant in a basement two minutes on foot from Seongsu Station Exit 4 in Seongdong, Seoul. On a weekday lunch with no waiting, the order was the Korean beef cutlet ramen SET at 22,000 won (Indian tomato ramen, spice level 1, no cilantro, basil risotto rice) plus a fresh salad at 3,500 won — and an extra beef cutlet arrived because the set already included one. Stirring curry, tomato and basil cheese rice together at the end tasted nothing like standard Japanese ramen, and it is worth a return visit. ## Good to know - **Location**: 37-17 Yeonmujang-gil, B1 Unit 101, Seongdong-gu, Seoul (2-minute walk from Seongsu Station Exit 4) - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–20:30, break 15:20–17:00, last order 20:00 - **Korean beef cutlet ramen SET**: 22,000 won (spice level 1 / no cilantro / basil risotto rice) - **Fresh salad**: 3,500 won - **Ramen types**: Beef bone broth, tom yum, Indian and dan dan tomato ramen - **Seating**: Tables for 2 to 4, plus a solo dining corner - **Good to know**: No parking, takeout available, reservations available, no corkage, no delivery information - **Table setup**: Garlic oil, red pepper, black pepper, Tabasco, hair ties, wooden chopsticks - **Receipt review gift**: Croquette, snowflake cheese or fried shrimp - **Price reference**: ₩22,000 ≈ $16 · ₩3,500 ≈ $2.5 (2026-09-18) *as written by the visitor on Sep 17, 2026* Today I visited Menya Pomo in Seongsu, a place famous for its tomato ramen :) ![Signature photo of tomato ramen at Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-01-1n1s8-1200.webp) ## Where is Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch, and what are the hours? Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch is at 37-17 Yeonmujang-gil, B1 Unit 101, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, a 2-minute walk from Seongsu Station Exit 4. It's open daily from 11:00 to 20:30, with break time from 15:20 to 17:00 and last order at 20:00. - Hours: Daily 11:00 – 20:30 - Break time: 15:20 – 17:00 / Last order 20:00 - No parking, takeout available, no delivery info, reservations available, no corkage ![Entrance of Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch near Seongsu Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-02-ki9ey-900.webp) ![Sign for Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch leading down to the basement on Yeonmujang-gil](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-03-1xr5d-900.webp) It's easy to get to since it's just a 2-minute walk from Seongsu Station Exit 4, and since it hasn't been open that long, it's clean and there wasn't much of a wait, so go check it out quickly~! (Might just be because it was a weekday though haha) ![Basement stairs and signage at Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-04-1tu7d-900.webp) First I looked over the menu and wow 😮 there were so many unique items~!! You can even have risotto after the ramen Since it's underground, it was easy to find once I spotted the sign. Just head on down the stairs. ## What are the solo dining seats like at Menya Pomo? The inside of Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch is clean and the space is well divided. There are tables for 2 to 4 people, and there's also a spot that's really good for solo dining~! (I was in the area running errands and had a hard time finding solo-friendly spots in Seongsu, but I discovered this place after searching around✨) I highly recommend it🫶🏻 ![Tables and solo dining seats inside Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-05-om9iw-900.webp) ![Interior of Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch with divided seating areas](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-06-1d5wr-900.webp) ## Four tomato ramen options at Menya Pomo Menya Pomo has 5 kinds of ramen: bone broth tomato ramen, tom yum tomato ramen, Indian tomato ramen, and dan dan tomato ramen. They're all tomato ramen but you can pick based on preference, and honestly I'd never tried the tom yum or dan dan versions so I was really torn🤔 ![Tomato ramen menu board at Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-07-yi2dl-900.webp) ![Menu listing bone broth, tom yum, Indian, and dan dan tomato ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-08-4skcd-900.webp) Each table has its own sauces (garlic oil, red pepper, pepper, Tabasco). There's even a detailed guide on how to enjoy the dish even more, so check that out. ⭐️Receipt review event⭐️ croquette, snowflake cheese, or fried shrimp ![Garlic oil, red pepper, and Tabasco sauces set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-09-48c3a-900.webp) Such a thoughtful owner 🤍 Every table had hair ties and disposable wooden chopsticks neatly arranged. A staff member even noticed my outfit and thoughtfully gave me an apron~! Menya Pomo says it's a place that offers tomato ramen, different from typical tonkotsu or shoyu ramen. They say it's a ramen restaurant that adds the deep richness of chicken-and-pork broth to the bright umami of tomato, bringing together chewy fresh noodles and hearty meat toppings in harmony. ![Introduction sign about Menya Pomo's tomato ramen](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-10-oupvt-900.webp) ![Set menu information board at Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-11-1n8dz-900.webp) ## What comes with the 22,000-won Korean beef cutlet ramen SET? I ordered the Korean Beef Cutlet Ramen SET for ₩22,000 (spice level 1 / no cilantro / basil risotto rice) and the Fresh Salad for ₩3,500. I chose the set menu since it lets you eat tomato ramen, Korean beef cutlet, and risotto rice all together💖 The set actually already comes with the Korean beef cutlet, but I didn't know that and added an extra order ㅠㅠ (so I ended up with two servings of Korean beef cutlet,,,ㅎ) ![Table setting with the Korean beef cutlet Indian tomato ramen set](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-12-k8ezz-900.webp) The Korean beef cutlet Indian tomato ramen SET — once I ordered, staff brought it right to my table. Such a hearty set menu🐰🎧 ![Indian tomato ramen piled high with toppings](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-13-xduyq-900.webp) The look of it doesn't feel like ramen at all~?! But it's piled high with toppings🍜 Fresh Salad ![Fresh salad from Menya Pomo](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-14-ns98w-900.webp) ![Fresh salad plate served with dressing](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-15-1vztl-900.webp) ![Fresh salad served alongside the set menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-16-1j8ss-900.webp) ### Finishing the broth with basil cheese rice risotto The basil cheese rice is rice mixed with fragrant basil and savory cheese. After enjoying the ramen, mixing this into the leftover tomato broth turns it into a rich tomato risotto with basil aroma still alive~! Menya Pomo's recommended best way to finish👍🏻 ![Basil cheese rice topped with basil and cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-17-9m8b1-900.webp) ![Cross-section of basil cheese rice with garlic chips](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-18-18xhh-900.webp) There were garlic chips and some kind of cheese mixed in the middle of the basil cheese rice. It seemed like it would taste amazing mixed into the tomato ramen!! ![Basil cheese rice mixed with ramen broth](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-19-tei70-900.webp) ![Two pieces of karaage included with the set](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-20-ojfti-900.webp) The set even comes with 2 pieces of karaage!! Crispy on the outside, juicy inside, so good~ ![Crispy fried karaage](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-21-1ltlt-900.webp) ## How does the Indian tomato ramen taste? The Indian tomato ramen has 13 different spices, giving it a deep, rich flavor like Indian curry meets tomato ramen. They didn't skimp on toppings either — egg, onion, meat, and green onion all generously added👍🏻✨ And on top of that, there's the Korean beef cutlet, crispy outside and tender and moist inside~!! Eating it together in between bites made it even tastier ![A bowl of Indian tomato ramen with Korean beef cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-22-dfxm9-900.webp) ![Springy noodles coated in Indian tomato sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-23-19r95-900.webp) ![Tomato risotto made by mixing in basil cheese rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad-24-b263v-900.webp) The noodles were nice and springy, and the thick, rich Indian tomato sauce seasoned them really well — the curry-plus-tomato combo is always delicious~~! At the end I mixed in the basil cheese rice, and as the cheese melted it became even thicker and more savory, with the fragrant basil adding a nice touch — the combination was better than I expected. It was fun to try a new take on ramen after only ever eating Japanese-style ramen, and I enjoyed it enough that I'd love to visit again🐰🫶🏻 ## Where it is - Menya Pomo Seongsu Branch (멘야포모 성수점) - 37-17 Yeonmujang-gil, B1 Unit 101, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 성동구 연무장길 37-17 지층 101호 - 37.5434189, 127.0536399 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%A9%98%EC%95%BC%ED%8F%AC%EB%AA%A8%20%EC%84%B1%EC%88%98%EC%A0%90/@37.5434189,127.0536399,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@yellow-awning-meals/seongsu-ramen-india-tomato-set-salad/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
