Sukiya’s Tonjiru Miso Ramen Returns on September 29
Sukiya Co., Ltd. (President: Naoki Sasagawa; headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo) runs the Sukiya gyudon (beef bowl) chain. The company will bring back its Tonjiru Miso Ramen starting at 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, September 29, 2026. The dish was first sold from June to July 2026 and proved popular. It now returns for a limited time. Its tagline is simply ‘Goes great with gyudon.’ True to those words, this satisfying bowl is designed to be enjoyed with a beef bowl. This time, the noodles have also been improved since the previous run.
What Is Tonjiru Miso Ramen? A Bowl Born from a Sukiya Classic
Tonjiru Miso Ramen is unique to Sukiya. It combines Sukiya’s standard menu item tonjiru (Japanese pork and miso soup) with noodles and a special sauce. Its biggest appeal is that it turns the familiar tonjiru into ramen. You get the best of both tonjiru and ramen in a single bowl.
A Special Sauce Blending Two Misos, Garlic and Ginger
The key to the flavor is the special sauce. It blends two types of miso with garlic, ginger and other ingredients, bringing out an appetizing aroma and rich umami. The bowl starts with tonjiru as its base. The sauce then adds extra aroma and savoriness, making it satisfying as a bowl of ramen.
Improved Noodles That Hold the Soup Better
The highlight of this comeback is the improved noodles. They have been reworked since the previous sale and now cling to the soup more easily. According to Sukiya, the result lets you savor the bowl’s deep flavor even more. Even if you tried it in June or July, it is worth checking how well the new noodles and soup come together.
A Reasonable Size That Pairs Easily with Gyudon
Tonjiru Miso Ramen comes in a modest size. It is not meant as a stand-alone meal. Instead, it is designed to make a satisfying meal when eaten together with a gyudon. That makes it an easy choice when you want both a beef bowl and ramen.
Two Variations Launching at the Same Time
Beef Tonjiru Miso Ramen (¥500)
This hearty bowl adds beef simmered in Sukiya’s secret sauce. You can enjoy Sukiya’s beef and Tonjiru Miso Ramen at once, so it is a good pick if you want more volume. It costs ¥140 more than the standard Tonjiru Miso Ramen.
Spicy Green Onion Tonjiru Miso Ramen (¥460)
This version is topped with plenty of green onion. The green onion adds a pleasant heat and a crisp texture that accent the miso-based soup. It costs ¥100 more than the standard bowl.
Value Sets and Soup Swaps
Sukiya also offers two sets that let you enjoy the ramen at a good price with your favorite main dish: the Tonjiru Miso Ramen Oshinko (pickles) Set and the Tonjiru Miso Ramen Tamago (egg) Set. When paired with a regular-size gyudon, both sets cost ¥880.
You can also swap the soup in your preferred set meal for Tonjiru Miso Ramen at any time of day. Because you only need to switch the soup in your usual set, it is easy to try at breakfast, lunch or dinner.
