Tonkotsu. Compact and traditional, neighborhood counter style, in Central Area · 2,153 reviews on Google
It's a compact, no-frills space with few seats and heavy crowds during peak hours. It treats customers to free gyoza on their birthday, which draws recurring celebration visits.
The highlight
Thick, robust tonkotsu broth with an intensity option (the stronger 'black' version) and a loyal clientele that has been coming back for years.
