What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A tsukemen specialty shop that opened in January 2023, located 5 minutes walk from Shirasagi Station on the Nankai Koya Line in Sakai City's Naka Ward. Rich, concentrated soup made from chicken, pork bone, and seafood pairs with house-made flat wide noodles made with whole wheat flour. Free choice of noodle size (small/medium/large) plus included white rice makes it exceptional value. Google rating 4.4 & 229 reviews (ranked 5th in Nlab Research March 2025 'Sakai City Ramen' ranking). Lines form before opening. An FC store opened near Sakaihigashi Station in September 2025, but the main store maintains its originality.

Many customers say 'the broth is rich yet clean-finishing, I want to come every week' and 'the noodles have amazing texture.' The free included rice is praised as 'godly service.' 'This flavor in Sakai is unfair.' A rising star that has built a strong repeat customer base in just 2 years since opening.
