Ramen is the core of the menu. Regulars keep naming the bonito (katsuo) ramen, a fish-based shoyu bowl, and the oroshi ponzu karaage, crisp chicken served with grated daikon and ponzu. The karaage arrives on a bed of salad leaves with a pale yellow sauce. One visitor recommends the wagyu gyoza as a side, and another mentions the tantanmen as the special. The broths are described as soy-based and seafood-forward.
