We waited in the queue 40 minutes to sit down, once they let us in they explained the menu and only when we were ready to order they told us we could only pay with cash or pix. We tried to find another way, like a bank transfer, which they firstly agreed to and once again they told us it wasn’t possible. They made us leave at 21.15, knowing all other restaurants in the neighbourhood close at 21.
Delicious and very flavorful meals, price was way cheaper when comparing with the other local cuisines. Down side, very long waiting line (understandable due its popularity) and cash and pix only payments.
Authentic as you can get here. I grew up with Americanized Japanese food, and also lived in Japan for a period of time and this is some of the best ramen I've had outside of Japan.
The shoyu broth is light, with the perfect amount of umami and richness. The noodles are firm and perfectly elastic. The chashu is very fatty and soft. The egg is steeped in soy sauce for flavor (but was slightly overcooked imo). Prices are amazing (30 reais for a bowl of ramen).
The gyoza skin is so delicate and seems to be made in house. Perfect crisp on the bottom.
The wait was about 1.5 hours on a Sunday. It was worth it and I would do it again. They will definitely see me coming back.

If you want a good ramen at a good price this is the place. Usually you should wait several minutes until get a place.
Outstanding! Superbly well prepared lamen. Gyozas are delicious and a neat entrée. If you are into Coca Cola KS, do get one with lime and rocks.
A b s o l u t e l y fantastic food. Hands down amazing. You have to try this place out. That ramen and those gyozas?!?! 😍
Best lamen in São Paulo!! Must try it when visiting the Japanese district of Liberdade
Super delicious! The ramen range between 18-20Reals, so affordable for a large portion. Only downside is how busy it can get especially during lunch time. Be prepared to wait!
