●The popular menu item ``Clam'' is a clear soup made with shellfish and chicken stock.It not only looks elegant, but also tastes amazing because it brings out the flavor of the ingredients used! Ura Isshoan, which offers a limited menu at irregular intervals, is also a must-see, and is worth waiting in line to eat. (20s/male/office worker)
●This is the ramen shop that I come back to the most. First of all, the clerk's greeting, "Thank you for your hard work today," is very soothing. I think, ``Ah, I'm glad I did my best today.'' The good thing about Isshoan is that the noodles and soup are delicious, of course, but the highlight is the limited event "Ura Isshoan" that can only be eaten at that time. I can't help but check social media frequently in search of swamp events that will keep me going again and again. It is especially essential during the season of rich oysters. Going out to eat oyster ramen has become a winter tradition. There's oyster paste on top so you can change the taste, and the gimmick is really fun. (30s/female/office worker)

A masterpiece with a rich harmony of chicken and shellfish! (50s/male/office worker)
