A Nishi Kawaguchi gem selected for Tabelog Ramen EAST 100 Famous Restaurants 9 consecutive years (2017–2025). The owner trained at the legendary 'Mendokoro Honda' before opening independently. Offers two styles: refined light-style and rich style. The soy sauce ramen is a masterpiece combining free-range chicken umami with seafood broth. Yahoo Maps 4.3/168 reviews.

Reviews say '9 consecutive Tabelog 100 is for real,' 'Honda-trained delicacy,' and 'soy sauce broth is godly.' Tabelog 3.76/1281 reviews. Yahoo Maps 4.3/168 reviews.
