What User doesn't like about Hokkaido Ramen Santouka:

Nothing like amazing santouka experience I had for years in MA. Disappointed.The noodles are st... View all feedback. What User likes about Hokkaido Ramen Santouka:
It's very good. Deep taste, broth comes from piping hot; very creamy texture. Thickness, heavy bowls that also keep the heat. The spicy fog broth was better than the special pig, but both were excellent. As always, ready to wait. We came at 5:00 when it was pretty slow and it was still about 20 minutes waiting.
