Great ramen, great sides, really fun & friendly vibe, cheap as hell, amazing place. Everything we had tasted amazing and we left with a bunch of friends to go on to our next destination in the hood. You can stand and eat outside too, which is fun.

Absolutely delicious, and the owner is extremely kind. I felt so welcomed and was really grateful that he was willing to try to converse in Japanese with me even though he spoke English, because I have a long ways to go :p. Immaculate vibes. Love that the ramen uses natural ingredients, too. My trip to Onomichi was worth it just to have found this place.

I popped in and the chef/owner made me a meatless version of his ramen even though it wasn’t on the menu. Food is delicious. Little cozy place, and nobody smokes inside which is a big plus for me personally:)

It is popular for foreigners. That's it. If you want a real Onomichi ramen, this place wouldn't be for you. Though the taste is not very bad, the style is arranged in their own way with coriander (never supposed to be on japanese ramen). It is far away from the style of Onomichi ramen. It is defo more tourist oriented and easy place to have a 'local-like' atmosphere at the counter occupied mainly by foreigners or non-local tourists.
