What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Opened October 2018. The owner trained at the popular 'Menya Eguchi' in Nara before opening independently in Hikone's Rendaijimachi. Serves meticulously crafted Chinese noodles and dipping noodles. Lines of 20-40 minute waits form from before noon as they close when soup runs out. Selected as Tabelog Ramen WEST Top 100 for 2025, 2024, and 2023 (3 consecutive years). 14 parking spaces.

High praise continues: 'Both chuka soba and tsukesoba are the real deal', 'The pig trotter topping pairs surprisingly well', 'Worth queuing before opening', 'This level in Shiga is exceptional'. Tabelog 3.70 (604 reviews), Yahoo Maps 4.27 (121 reviews), Ramen WEST Top 100 three consecutive years. No fake review suspicion (clear training history, documented queues, many specific reviews).
