As you enter the restaurant, you will see old-fashioned counter seats and table seats, and the sight of the owner managing everything alone. The menu prices are reasonable, with ramen at 400 yen and tanmen at 500 yen. However, the atmosphere of the restaurant itself is even more attractive.
While waiting for your meal, you will see an abacus placed or the scene of taking out bottled beer by yourself. It's a space where the strong presence of the Showa era remains as if you've slipped back in time.
The seasoning of the dishes also has a strong and authentic flavor. The soup that comes with the fried rice and gyoza also has a nostalgic taste.
