This place is fantastic. I am a mum with 2 small children (3 and 5 years) and arrived about 6pm. My kids were a little.... Tired. However I was welcomed with such friendly service, despite my son spilling a jug of water and toppling his rice... They had children's bowls and cutlery, and I felt well looked after despite me being quite stressed!
Food was delicious - my children had rice and incredibly fresh karaage and gyoza, and I enjoyed a (much-needed) nama beeru and the delicious standard ramen. I also ordered a takeaway standard ramen for my husband who was working, which was hot and fresh when I got it home. Absolutely faultless.
To add to this, I had left my cash at home.... I said I would leave my phone but the staff were adamant it wasn't necessary and kindly sent me on my way trusting my promise to return and pay (which I of course did!) Altogether it was about 2400yen.
This is EXACTLY the type of place which makes me return to Japan so often and I thank them wholeheartedly for not just a delicious meal, but such wonderful, kind service. Arigatou...

Be prepared to wait a bit if you come at lunchtime as there...

All I can say is that the hot bowl of ramen was so comforting during the winter cold. Although it's not the best ramen that we've had, at its price point, it's definitely worth every yen we paid and a bit...
