白浜食堂 — Restaurant in Shimoda

4.5/5 ⭐️

Small little ramen place with some delicious ramen and gyoza‘s!

It‘s a one man business so keep that in mind. Chef was friendly and respectful. Don‘t really understand some of the negative reviews. I don’t speak japanese at all, only spoke english but he was always friendly. He might be not the most talkative person. Don‘t expect to have some small-talk or conversation with him.

But if you show respect and manners, he will too.

Very small menu consisting of ~2 dishes. Ramen and gyozas. Very strong flavors and freshly prepared. Not for people who likes mild flavors.

Ambiente is a little rusty and old school, so keep that in mind.

Can‘t beat the prices! Super affordable and worth every yen!

Definitely...

I recommend this place over most other options by the beach.

The other reviewer was way too mean, the shop owner is definitely not the most jovial, but he is not rude or mean. The place itself is very clean and well made, open and spacious with an outside area as well, perfect for the beach to be sure.

The Ramen is very tasty with a thick broth, the gyoza is excellent, mentaitakana rice has nice flavor too! They have hiyashichuka for summer time (cold ramen) as well!

All in all its one of the better food spots you'll find near the beach here.

We had decent conversations and interactions with the owner and though he isn't upbeat and smiling, he chats and is...

All good with this place. People were slightly disappointed with the service because they hadn't understood that this place is run by one person, probably the owner. He is a man of few words, doesn't talk if he doesn't have to; he is chef, cleaning, taking orders, etc. I don't know if this is common, but usually you can see three people in a ramen joint, so it would be easier. He knows what he is doing; the ramen is good, gyoza is fantastic, and this is probably one, if not the only, place you can properly eat in this area if you don't want to eat supermarket food, especially since everything closes...
