This has been my favourite meal of our trip so far. While I was eating, I was thinking of the next time we’ll come back during our 3 day stay. The mazemen ramen was incredible. The chilled tofu was fantastic. And the fried oysters were so delicious, I ordered another serving! The staff were incredible - kind, welcoming, and like other reviews say, always smiling! You can tell that they care for their guests, even in the helpful signs around the restaurants. When we left, we were given a bookmark and it was so special! We will definitely be back! Ok this is the new high bar in Japanese food. It blew my mind. It’s called Mazemen. Home made noodles in a light spicy sauce with green onion, pork belly 🐷 and a super soft poached egg. 🥚 You mix it all up and it turns into a Japanese Carbonara. Show stopper. Quality food, great service and lively room. If you have one meal to eat in Hiroshima eat it here. A small restaurant with a couple of tables which makes it a little bit cramped but the tables are pretty big. The service was courteous, friendly and patient. The food was served in under 10 minutes which was quite impressive for a full house. The restaurant also has a full menu in English which makes it a lot easier for people who can't read or speak Japanese. Even though their specialty is mazemen, they have a great selection of rice dishes and deep fried dishes as well which was great to try. Their mazemen were incredible. I really enjoyed the flavours and the elasticity of their noodles and they offer a lot of selections to accommodate the preferences of the customers. I also really enjoyed their various sauces that are served with their deep fried food. Everything is clearly labeled and every sauce had distinguished flavours that were quite delicious.

Must try! Great Cold Noodles and Chicken Nanban. The shop different from usual shop. Noodles texture is chewy but not hard. I believe that the owner and Chef must be travel frequent or having a great cooking and gastronomy knowledges.

Tucked away in Hiroshima, this small local spot serves up one of the tastiest vegetarian mazemen I’ve had in Japan. I ordered the warm version, which comes with a barely cooked egg that you mix into the sauce—super flavorful and comforting. Simple ingredients, but done so well. Everything came out to around 1000 yen per person, which felt very reasonable. The place has a cozy, local vibe with bar seating and friendly, attentive staff. They spoke English and made the ordering process really easy. No wait when we arrived, and it’s worth noting you can also pay by card. If you’re looking for a vegetarian-friendly noodle spot in Hiroshima that feels authentically local, don’t miss this on
