What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A soy sauce ramen specialty shop near Nagano City Hall, a 5-minute walk from Shiyakushomae Station on the Nagano Electric Railway. The signature golden clear soup blends three soy sauces (Aichi tamari, Hiroshima re-brewed, Nagano light) aged for two days, combined with chicken bones, collagen-rich chicken feet, dried sardines, and urume anchovies. Self-made whole wheat noodles with a silky texture. Google rating 4.3 with 272 reviews (per Netorabo), among the top-rated ramen in Nagano. Opened April 2019, 7 counter seats, but queues form before opening.

Reviews say 'This soy sauce soup is the best in Nagano', 'The soup is clear yet deeply flavored', 'Free extra noodles on the 10th of every month (pork bone day)', 'Small place but always a queue'. Google 4.3 with 272 reviews. Many personal blogs from local ramen fans, active SNS.
