What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A beloved ramen shop originally founded in 1942, revived after the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. All soup and ingredients are sourced from Kesennuma, finished with saury oil for a true Sanriku taste. The owner of Tokyo's famous 'Chibakiya' — a Kesennuma native — returned home in 2015 to reopen it as a reconstruction project. Retty reviewers describe it as 'always lively with locals and regulars.'

Reviews highlight: 'broth with saury essence — true Kesennuma flavor,' 'perfect harmony between noodles and soup,' 'a symbol of reconstruction that locals keep coming back to,' 'go early — closes when soup runs out,' 'modest portion but great value.' Tabelog: 286 reviews, 3.48. No sakura suspicion.
