A ramen and gyoza shop on Route 120 near Numata IC. The signature 'Tomato Ramen' is a one-of-a-kind bowl where asari clams, shrimp and other seafood umami blend beautifully with tomato acidity. Tabelog 3.47/287, TripAdvisor 4.3 (Numata #1). Popular pit stop for drivers heading to Oze and Tanigawadake. Lines of 7-8 groups form at evening opening.
Reviews say 'The tomato acidity and seafood umami meld beautifully', 'There's always a line out front', 'I always stop by every time I visit Numata'. TripAdvisor #1 in Numata. Gyoza with plenty of garlic also highly praised.
