    Best for

    The founding shop of the Setagaya-ya group, whose bold soup uses three kinds of niboshi with a soy tare of three-year-aged Shimousa shoyu, shiitake, kombu and bonito. House-made noodles use a 100% Japanese wheat blend and the pork chashu is seared over charcoal here; at lunch the same room becomes the group's shio-ramen shop Hirugao.
