FIVE BOWLS · NO FILLER · SAMPLE PRICING

Seattle rain and hot broth are a matched pair. Come damp, leave warm. First visit? Order the tonkotsu — it is the bowl the whole room is built around. Slurping is encouraged; it cools the noodle and aerates the broth, which is exactly the point. Call the counter at (555) 010-2030 — a human answers, usually between bowls.
Close enough to hear the noodles land. Close enough to ask what is in your bowl.
