What a special spot with great food, kind service and cool vibes. If you like your chewy noodles and rich but clean flavored broth, this is a spot for you. The noodles almost have a mochi-like chew, as some have mentioned a thick hand-pulled noodle texture. It’s fantastic.

I had the special shoyu broth which came with an egg, bamboo shoots, and chasu. I added another egg, nori, and more chasu. It was a lot of food. The standard order would do the regular person just fine. Added a beer for that cherry on top.

You place your order through the classic vending machine up front. Put in your cash first and select what you’d like and hand it to the chefs. If there is a red lit kanji character underneath the button for your desired item, it means they’re out.

Finally, we came here around new years and it was tricky getting a spot. They stay open until they sell out and it seems they’ve been selling out lately so be patient with that. They have a lunch service then close until their dinner service. We got in for the lunch service.

Definitely worth a visit!

Incredible ramen. I had the salt broth which was really straightforward and light, giving the centre stage away to the handmade bouncy noodles, big generous shrimp wanton and flavourful chashu. Every bite on the noodles is a joy. It was ¥1300 well spent. The owner was very kind and spoke to me and offered lollipops too.

A ramen shop run by nice guys who are particular about the taste of their ramen, but also have great customer service.  After the customers have finished eating, the staff asks them what they think and sends them off with thoughtful words.  As the staff work, they talk to each other and discuss the amount of dried sardines to use in the soup.Watching them make me feel like a fan.  Ramen is characterized by homemade thick noodles.  It is thicker than "udon" and close to "hotou".  As soon as U take a bite of the mochi noodles, U'll fall in love with their chewy texture, which goes well with the soup made with dried sardines.

Visited on a hot Wednesday at dead on 12 O'clock. Not busy, plenty of seats.
I've walked by many times at the weekend and there's always a long queue.
Great ramen. Got the salt broth @ 1,100 yen. First button on the menu. Great soup, unusual beat up thick ramen noodles, soft boiled egg, buttery melting charshu. Great bowl, perfect for this hot day.

Very unique thick noodle!

This place has some very unique, thick chewy noodles. The texture is very similar to mochi. The broth is a seafood base with a light fishy taste, but still has a tasty and complex flavor. The shrimp wonton has a ton of ginger in it which is a refreshing addition.
