Editorial Review

Named for one of the ultimate foodie movies, churns out possibly the best Japanese-style ramen outside of, well, Japan. Odd space with a half-moon shaped bar is perpetually crammed with locals and their kids. We get the shoyu chashu ramen — a hearty combination of miso and chicken broth, assembled in a humongous steaming bowl with savory slices of pork and green onions. Segoi-yo! Combined with a tall, frosty Sapporo and you’ve got the ichiban (#1) hangover cure.
