Ramen Imaruya
A ramen shop in Isesaki with a reputation for being 'Gunma's best.' The chef, trained at a Japanese cuisine restaurant, serves a signature salt ramen with condensed umami from salt, kelp, and mackerel broth. Many loyal fans drive from neighboring prefectures. Expect a queue. Official updates on Instagram and X confirm salt ramen at 730 yen is still available.
Reviews on X and Tabelog rave: 'This might be the best ramen in Gunma,' 'The salt ramen hits differently from the first sip,' 'It was totally worth the trip.' Ranked 18th in Isesaki on TripAdvisor.
