What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Founded in 1945, this institution has served Banshu ramen in Ono City — birthplace of the style — for over 80 years. A truly irreplaceable presence, long beloved by locals. The noodles, sauce, and chashu are all made in-house; the thin wavy noodles and lightly sweet soy broth are a perfect match. Yahoo Maps 3.67 (160 reviews), Tabelog 240 reviews. Weekend waits of 30+ minutes are the norm. Multiple reviews confirm it as 'the most popular ramen shop in this area.'

"Incredibly popular in this area — huge lines on weekends." "The sweet Banshu ramen flavor is addictive. Been coming back for 10+ years." "Every element — noodles, chashu, broth — is house-made. An honest, sincere bowl." "The set with onigiri is also great. Outstanding value."
