Fake reviews removed

Opened in June 2023 at Tenjinmachi after 'Mendokoro Shinohara,' a popular restaurant in Tokyo's Ikebukuro, relocated to Kanazawa. Earned Tabelog 3.63/194+ reviews and ranked #1 in Ishikawa Prefecture for soy-sauce ramen by Ramen Database (October 2024). The clear soy-sauce broth draws complex umami from pork, chicken, bonito, kelp, niboshi, and dried shiitake, topped with 5 kinds of meat in the signature special ramen. Friday evenings operate as a separate clam-broth specialty shop.

Notable reviews: 'A top-tier Tokyo shop finally came to Kanazawa,' 'The quality of meat on the special soy ramen is extraordinary,' 'How can a clear broth have this much umami?', 'The Friday clam broth is rare since it's only once a week,' 'Worth queuing for.' Tabelog 194+ reviews, Ramen DB #1 for Ishikawa soy-sauce ramen.
