Description

The menu features distinct ramen variations alongside drinks like jelly-based sake. Options range from the medium-spice Point Blank to the Sichuan-style Captain Brooklyn III, which features vegan meat. For something heavier, the Iron Men offers a very rich, salty broth, while the Showa Classic is a less salty alternative. Every bowl comes with generous noodle portions, offering more than the typical ramen serving. Tables inside are set close together to maximize the small layout, though there is also bar seating and a heated patio.
