Is there an Ippudo in Shinjuku, Minato-ku, Tsukiji, or anywhere close to the JR Yamanote line?
Also, can anyone recommend a Ryokan near Shinjuku Station or in Nishi-Shinjuku? I heard of Tama, but as they have cats on premises and we have allergies, I was wondering if anyone has any other hot tips on Ryokans.

There is an Ippudo in Ebisu (on the JR Yamanote Line), as well as one in Roppongi (on the Hibeya Subway line). Not sure about ryokans near Shinjuku as that area is famous for luxury hotels, especially the Park Hyatt, any of which are certainly worth the splurge.
