What makes it special
Known for intensely concentrated crab broth—the kind that makes you slurp twice. Lunch is genuinely quiet compared to dinner crowds, which makes it a rare opportunity to get the same bowl without waiting. The aetama (mixed noodles) is practically mandatory. Cash only.
How to visit
3 minutes walk from Kamata Station. Lunch 11:30am–2:30pm, dinner 5:30pm–10pm; closed Sundays. Cash payment only. No reservations needed, but dinner can draw lines. Arrive early lunch for zero wait.
FAQ
What's the difference between regular ramen and the aetama?
Aetama is a bowl of noodles tossed in the concentrated broth at the bottom—a textural break and flavor intensifier. Order both if you want the full experience.
Is this place the same as the old Ningyocho location?
The Kamata location has a working-class neighborhood feel; lunch is less crowded compared to dinner.
Can I pay by card?
No, cash only.
