About this place
For a dependable lunch, start with the ramen and half-size fried rice set, listed at ¥900; ramen on its own is ¥600. Diners have remarked on the aroma of the soy-sauce broth, the thin, curly noodles and the chashu. Another visitor found the seasoning of the bowl, described as having an old-fashioned soy-sauce flavour, quite robust. The half-size fried rice is a handy addition when you want something alongside your ramen. Some diners have found it moist with well-defined seasoning, and one noted that it went particularly well with the lightly pickled vegetables.
Add gyoza to round out the meal. The menu lists 6 pieces for ¥500, described as handmade. One diner noticed the sweetness of the vegetables, though opinions on the texture and flavour of the cooked dumplings vary. They can accompany ramen or be ordered with beer. There is also a broad choice of noodles, including tantanmen, jajangmyeon, tanmen, gomoku soba and tsukemen. The menu suggests adding chilli oil and Sichuan pepper to the tantanmen to taste, making it a choice for those who want to adjust the heat themselves. One diner described its balance of acidity and spice, and noted minced meat with shiitake mushrooms and onion. Shanghai noodles, described as seafood salt-fried noodles, offer an alternative to a soupy noodle dish.
Beyond noodle and fried-rice sets, the lunch recommendations also include a ginger-pork set meal at ¥900. You can build your meal around ramen, half-size fried rice or gyoza.
