You can park in the back (map available in store) or out front if it’s late like I did. Arrived 30 min before closing so not many people. It looks like a regular Ramen shop (bar like seating) that’s been around awhile so don’t expect anything fancy/upscale. Since I LOVE spicy ramen I tried the spicy ramen at level 5 (Big Bang). Upon my first bite, it was so good I couldn’t put my spoon/chopsticks down. Plus I was starving so it hit all the right spots! Finished my meal and was about to go when I seen the sign for “honban”. It’s a specialty of the shop which mixes just a little of your soup base that’s then heated with two black stones to make a cheese risotto(they add rice cheese). Even if you do not finish your noodles the shop would like you to try their “honban”. Hoping to try level 6 (Black Hole) on a return; only 25 people have been able to finish this!

I've had the Tonkatsu Tsuke-men twice now and it was consistently delicious both times. Honban is a lovely little wrap-up for getting the most out of the broth, so it's worth the ¥100 if you're going to only go once. If you're around for a while, between extra noodles and Honban, the membership should pay for itself.

The Satan spice level is one of the spiciest dishes I have ever had, but it is still very flavorful and delicious. The owner is very nice as is his family. The Honban for spicy ramen is the reason I keep coming back.

The second one is beef dip, come with a plate of cooked beef, which is way better then sweet miso one, but nothing special, I will give it 4 out of five. They have this thing called Honban, after you finish the noodle, they will use your left over soup cook cereal, you can choose from Japanese style and Korean style. The beef dip Japanese style cereal is great. Their most popular one is spicy miso, too bad I didn’t get to try it. The shop is by the big road but the parking land is a bit complicated to find. Cozy small traditional Japanese style space. The owner is really friendly and enthusiastic.
