What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A top-rated ramen shop relocated from Kawaguchi to Kita-Urawa in 2022. Selected as Tabelog Ramen EAST Top 100 for 2025. Known for its hand-kneaded house-made noodles and complex broth made from Hinai chicken, flying fish, and kombu. Only 8 counter seats, expect a wait.

Regulars rave: 'The soup is great but the house-made noodles are simply the best.' 'A one-of-a-kind bowl you can't find anywhere else.' Queues form even during the morning ramen service.
