Shoyu. Small, authentic and busy, with jazz playing in the background, in Actipan · 312 reviews on Google

The space is small and often forms a line, especially on busy dates, but customers agree it's worth the wait. The house is also praised for its small plates (karaage, edamame, gyoza) and the green tea ice cream.

The highlight

Authentic ramen made by a Japanese chef, with broth praised as intense and noodles that are always cooked just right.

This ramen really is good — the broth is rich across the several options I've tried, and the toppings and meat are great too.
The chef is Japanese and the Japanese community frequents the place, a sign of authentic food; it's in my top 3 in the city.
I ordered the Shoyu Ramen — the broth has a ton of flavor, the noodles have great texture and the chashu is tender.
It genuinely tastes like what we ate in small Japanese towns — delicious, with the noodles cooked just right.
The Heads Tanmen came recommended and it exceeded my expectations — 5 stars.
The karaage is delicious, and the passion fruit soda pairs really well with the ramen.
The edamame is the best I've had, and the music accompanies without being intrusive.
If you want a broth a bit lighter than the classic tonkotsu, this is a great option — the chicken broth ramen is very good.
The owner Nau is super attentive, it's small but very cozy, the service is fast and the food is a 10/10.
There's always jazz playing, the service is warm, the gyoza are unmissable and the green tea ice cream is excellent.
