Shellfish-Broth Ramen Until 12:30 a.m. at Kuso Oyaji Saigo no Hitofuri Tenma
If you are looking for a final bowl after a night of drinking in Tenma, Kuso Oyaji Saigo no Hitofuri Tenma is one option worth considering. Its house-made noodles are served in ramen built around broth extracted from clams, littleneck clams, freshwater clams, and scallops. The shop is about 68 meters from Ogimachi Station and stays open every day from 11:00 a.m. until 12:30 a.m.
Inside Tenjinbashisuji Shopping Street, Just Steps from Ogimachi Station
Kuso Oyaji Saigo no Hitofuri Tenma is conveniently located for a stop after dining or bar-hopping in Tenma.
The address is 4-6-23 Tenjinbashi. It is about 68 meters from Ogimachi Station on the Osaka Metro Sakaisuji Line and roughly a two-minute walk from JR Temma Station. The shop sits beneath the Tenjinbashisuji Shopping Street arcade, making the route from either station easy to follow.
There are 17 seats inside: 13 at the counter and four at tables. The counter makes it comfortable to visit alone, while the tables work well for pairs. The shop has been serving the Tenma shopping street since opening in August 2021.
The location works equally well for a post-drinks bowl or a meal while exploring the arcade. Ogimachi Station is also close by when it is time to head home.
A Clean, Satisfying Bowl That Lets the Shellfish Shine
This is a clean-tasting ramen that remains easy to enjoy even as the final meal after drinks.
The soup draws on several kinds of shellfish, including littleneck clams, hamaguri clams, freshwater clams, and scallops. The result offers a rich shellfish aroma and savory depth distinct from pork-bone, chicken, or dried-sardine broths.
Shellfish-broth ramen has attracted a growing number of specialist shops in recent years. Unlike animal-based stock, its flavor and aroma unfold gently. The soup here felt clean on the palate and remained light enough to enjoy to the last sip.
The house-made noodles are thin and straight, pairing naturally with the shellfish broth. Each bite carries the soup's aroma and savory flavor. The chashu does not overpower the bowl, instead settling neatly into the overall balance. A soft shellfish finish lingers after the meal.
Because the shop stays open late, it is an easy place to stop for a final bowl after drinks.
Hamaguri, Littleneck Clams, Freshwater Clams, and Scallops: Four Shellfish, Four Expressions
The character of the ramen changes depending on whether you choose littleneck clams, hamaguri clams, or scallops.
The menu includes littleneck-clam ramen, hamaguri-clam ramen, and scallop ramen, as well as brothless choices such as scallop-butter mazesoba. Each has its own appeal, so even choosing the first bowl is part of the fun.
On this visit, I ordered the hamaguri ramen. As the bowl arrived, a gentle shellfish aroma rose from the clear soup. It carried more savory depth than its appearance suggested, with restrained saltiness. The hamaguri flavor spread gradually across the palate and kept the chopsticks moving.
Littleneck clams, hamaguri, freshwater clams, and scallops each give the bowl a different impression. I chose hamaguri this time, but the range makes you want to return for another flavor.
Open Straight Through from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 a.m.
Kuso Oyaji Saigo no Hitofuri Tenma works for many occasions, from lunch to a late-night bowl after drinks.
Hours are 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 a.m., with last orders at midnight. The shop is about a two-minute walk from JR Temma Station and has no regular closing day.
Tenma is a neighborhood where restaurants stay lively late into the night. With its station-side location and late hours, this is a convenient option when ramen sounds good after drinking. Continuous service also makes it useful after the main lunch rush or before the usual dinner hour.
The dining room has 17 seats, so there may be a wait at peak lunch and dinner times. Visit slightly outside those windows if you would rather avoid the busiest periods.
Ramen starts below ¥1,000. The approachable pricing is another reason the shop is easy to use from midday until late at night.
Payment and Reservations: What to Know Before You Visit
Before visiting, it helps to know the shop's payment and reservation policies.
Payment is cash only; credit cards, electronic money, and QR-code payments are not accepted. Reservations are also unavailable, so you may need to wait at the shop when it is busy. With only 17 seats, arriving outside peak lunch and dinner times can reduce the wait.
All seats are non-smoking, and there is no dedicated parking. However, the shop is about 68 meters from Osaka Metro Ogimachi Station and a two-minute walk from JR Temma Station, making it easy to reach by train. If you visit late, remember to check the last-train schedule.
There is no regular closing day, but temporary closures and limited-time menu announcements are posted on the official X and Instagram accounts (@kusooyaji_temma).
The shop belongs to the restaurant group behind brands such as Jinrui Mina Menrui. Because the group operates several shops and brands, checking the name and address before setting out will help you find the right location.
