What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Opened in March 2021 but already the top ramen shop in Soja with overwhelming local support. Chef trained at prestigious Okayama ramen shops. Chicken-based broth paired with 4 types of homemade noodles. Lines form before opening even on weekdays. Only 10 counter seats. Over 80 limited menu items by 2nd anniversary.

Many say 'the warm atmosphere between regulars and the owner is great' and 'a shop I want to visit regularly.' #1 ramen in Soja on Tabelog (3.54/150 reviews). Homemade noodles highly praised. Full within 5 minutes of opening.
