Kaidashi Ramen Kurofune SECOND
Opened in 2017 as a second location of Ofunato's flagship ramen brand Kurofune, within the Cassen Ofunato Food Village complex. The broth combines premium Sanriku shellfish (scallop, hard clam, abalone) with local free-range chicken. Uses house-made flat straight noodles from Iwate-grown wheat. Queues form from the moment doors open. Tabelog 3.50/177 reviews (latest July 2025), 2,672 saves; TripAdvisor 4.3; Certified Recommended Restaurant by Iwate Food Club.
