    Founded 2008 (Tabelog snippet). Hotpepper page is stale (updated 2020; it lists 11:30–24:00). Short-day conflict between the X bio (Tue 11:30–17:00) and Tabelog/Instagram (Sun/holidays 11:30–17:00); not resolved. Prices from Ramen Databank (浜そば 650円/大盛 750円/W盛 850円); still under ¥1,000. Cash-only from Hotpepper (2020).
