Fake reviews removed

A tiny 6-counter-seat gem tucked in a residential area, a 3-minute walk from Hanshin Himejima Station. Opened March 2021. The owner, with a background in meat wholesale, mastered ramen through self-study. The signature 'Tori Shio' features clear chicken oil broth with whole grain noodles. Full house and 15-minute waits on weekday evenings — one of Nishi-Yodogawa's most popular spots. Grand Prix in the Salt (Iriko-Shio) category of 'Kyuukyoku no Ramen 2026 Kansai Edition'. Yahoo Maps 4.08, 302 Tabelog reviews.

Ramen database reviews: 'I wait like a tiger but love this place', 'the popularity never stops'. Blog: 'The Tori Shio here is insanely delicious!!!' A blogger confirmed full house with 15-minute wait on a weekday evening. Grand Prix in the 2026 Kansai Ramen Guide salt category confirms quality.
