What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A kamaage udon specialist inheriting techniques from the legendary Issho school of Osaka-Yao. The dashi uses three varieties of katsuobushi, Rishiri kelp, and Ibuki island iriko — extraordinary broth. Open just 2.5 hours until sold out. Selected for Tabelog Udon WEST 100 Best 2024 and 2020 consecutively. Tabelog 3.63, 344 reviews, saved by 12,592 people. Lines form before opening at this Naruto institution.

Praised as 'the No. 1 dashi you want to drown in' by a Tokushima food app. Many say 'almost sold out but barely got a seat' and 'absolutely worth lining up before opening.' Gurunavi 4.0 / TripAdvisor 4.0 (17 reviews). Consecutive 100 Best selections in 2024 and 2020, plus an exceptional 12,592 Tabelog saves prove genuine popularity.
