A spin-off from the Setagaya brand is also making its way to Osaka for the first time!
From Tokyo
Hirugao salted ramen
A dish that will turn the preconception that salt-based broth is plain on its head!
Originally opened as a lunch-time service at the Setagaya restaurant, the Hirugao brand has rapidly spread the Setagaya name across the country.
A luxurious but mellow shellfish-based soup with a distinctive seafood taste and seasoned with natural sea salt. This is combined with soft, springy fine noodles, rich with the aroma of the Hokkaido-grown Waka flour used in their production.
Once you try a mouthful of this flavor-packed soup any preconceptions you may have had that salt-based broth was plain will be shattered. Namba Ramen Ichiza is the only place in Japan where diners can experience the Setagaya and Hirugao ramen brands alongside one another!

After conquering Tokyo’s Kannana area, this restaurant has decided it’s about time it did the same in Kansai!
From Tokyo
Setagaya ramen
Intense seafood flavors are at the heart of the Setagaya taste!
What makes Tokyo’s famous Setagaya restaurants so special are their fusion of mellow, seafood-based and rich, animal-based broths. The broth also uses a special blend of soy sauce that incorporates three-year-aged Shimousa, while the restaurant uses original noodles made with the rare Kinuakari flour, grown in Aichi Prefecture, for an ideal texture both soft yet firm.
