地元の人が、通い続ける。それが何よりの証明。
The former Tabelog Top 100 (5 consecutive years 2019-2023) and RDB 97.174 iekei shop relocated to Hiratsuka.
Tabelog 3.56/305 reviews in its first year.

200-person queue at reopening confirmed across local media, Goguynet Hiratsuka, and Instagram (independently verified).
Credible reputation from training at Yoshimuraya and Odoya.
Multiple visitor blogs report 20+ person weekday queues.
Negative search found no serious issues with 'bad taste' or 'sakura.' Rumor of expulsion confirmed as unfounded.
Two-location operation with Yokohama 'Torakichi-ya Hikari' (taken over by apprentice) - below 4-location chain threshold.

What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A legendary iekei-style ramen shop (Yokohama tonkotsu soy) that won Tabelog Top 100 for 5 consecutive years (2019-2023) in Yokohama's Higashi-Hakurakuten, relaunched on March 23, 2025 just 2 minutes from Hiratsuka Station west exit. 200 people queued at the reopening. Known for its layered tonkotsu-soy broth, house-made noodles, and smoked chashu.

'The same taste from Higashi-Hakurakuten, now in Hiratsuka.' 'Even on weekdays, expect to queue.' 'Exceptional richness and sharpness even among iekei ramen.' Fans travel from afar after the relocation. 305 Tabelog reviews in the first year is an unusually fast pace.
