What people say, in short
Fuunji is recommended across its Tokyo outlets, particularly Shinjuku. Many diners rank its tsukemen among their favourites, and several praise the rich dipping broth. Crowding is the practical drawback: visitors describe queues and one felt rushed after sitting down. Quality is disputed too. Two commenters report or relay a decline, while returning diners say they still enjoy it, including one whose third visit was as satisfying as earlier trips.
