What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A 50-year-old institution tucked in the mountains of Motobu's Izumi area. Famous for springy, tender spare ribs in a light bonito and pork broth. Traditional folk-house interior with 36 seats. Menu: only Soki Soba or Sanmai-niku Soba. Can sell out as early as 2 PM. Quietest right at opening on weekdays.

Reviews say: 'The tender spare ribs are unforgettable,' '50-year history brings reassurance,' 'The bonito broth is so light you can drink it all,' 'Long queues but worth the wait,' 'Repeat visitor on weekdays.' TripAdvisor 4/5 (148 reviews).
