Chuka Soba Shu

Shu suits ramen fans who want the taste of Shukaen, which closed after its owner died, and the trade-off is a cramped room where every seat feels like a counter stool.
What to order
- Wantan-men with pork wontons
- Yakisoba, which a Retty reviewer says shares the ramen's stock
Shukaen helped define Onomichi ramen and closed for good after the owner's death. Retty reviewers say members of his family opened Shu near city hall to bring the bowl back, and Tabelog records the opening as 16 November 2020. The menu is short, written on wooden boards by the door and sold through a ticket machine inside. The light shoyu soup hides under a layer of back fat that keeps it scalding, so take the first sips slowly.
Worth knowing
- Seating is tight, so a big group does better splitting into twos and threes.
