What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Founded in 1954, sometimes called Oita's oldest ramen shop—and its Hita yakisoba is equally legendary. Handmade noodles fried in soybean oil until crispy: a formula unchanged for 70+ years. Many regulars say 'I've been coming since middle school' or 'since I was a child.' Lines of 20+ minutes on Sunday lunchtimes. Tabelog 3.42/131 reviews, 2,522 saves. A Hita yakisoba institution so respected it has a noren-wake shop in Tokyo's Harajuku.

Repeat visitors rave: 'The crispy noodles and crunchy bean sprouts are perfect together,' 'The crispiness is unmatched,' 'I grew up eating here—it's nostalgic every time,' and 'Once you start sipping the chicken-soy broth, you can't stop.' 131 Tabelog reviews ranks among the top Hita yakisoba shops. TripAdvisor 4.5/12 reviews, 11th in Hita.
