What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

The first Kanto branch of 'Kenchan Ramen', a celebrated shop from Sakata, Yamagata, founded in 1978 and selected for the Ramen Top 100. Opened in March 2024, run by the second generation. Sold out on opening day, creating buzz among local food lovers. Tabelog 3.60/128, Yahoo 4.24.

Reviews say 'Light but deep chuka soba', 'The unique noodles are delicious', 'This quality in Koga is impressive'. The daily limit of 60 bowls often sells out early on weekdays.
