Ichicoro Ane: Solid Ramen Spot Now Closed

Nostalgia seekers still chase the izakaya vibe that vanished from downtown St. Pete years ago.

July 25, 2026 About Ichicoro Ane

Solid ramen until the doors shut in 2022.

The Take

Tonkotsu ramen or grilled chashu were the clear orders at Ichicoro Ane. Slop Score 52.

The izakaya nailed traditional small plates and ramen bowls with a lively pub atmosphere before permanent closure.

Hit the based order if a revival ever happens. Skip anything deep-fried or heavy on unconfirmed sauces.

Slop Score 52.
