Kiwamaruaji is a ramen restaurant in Heungdeok-gu, Cheongju, widely regarded as one of the top ramen destinations in the Chungbuk and southern Gyeonggi region. The flagship Tokumi Ramen combines a thick, full-bodied tonkotsu broth with firm noodles, tender chashu pork, and a signature soft-boiled ajitamago. Goku Ramen allows diners to select their preferred spice level for a bolder, more stimulating bowl, while Tsukemen offers a dipping-style format for a different textural experience. Complimentary rice is available, and finishing the broth as a rice porridge is a recommended way to close the meal. Service is swift, making it well-suited for lunchtime visits. Parking is accessible in the building garage, and the restaurant maintains a loyal following with wait times common even on weekdays.
