What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A hidden gem in a residential neighborhood, maintained by a second-generation chef trained at the legendary Daikiken, the origin of Sakata ramen. Handmade noodles, thin wonton skin, and seafood-based broth. Lines form on weekends. A locals' treasure with secret menu orders.

Reviews say: 'Lines guaranteed on weekends,' 'The handmade noodles are chewy,' 'Authentic Daikiken-style taste,' 'People line up before opening despite being in a residential area.' Many regulars document visits on blogs and SNS.
