Recommended bowl: Charcoal-filtered water

Covered in vines and foliage, this place looks more like an abandoned building than a ramen shop. Customers take off their shoes upon entering and make way to one of the 50 seats inside the premises. The 'mokkai suba', aka Okinawan-style soba, contains housemade noodles prepared with charcoal-filtered water, rather than the usual kansui (lye water) that most ramen shops use. Rather than the traditional Okinawa-style sparerib, the bowl is topped with pork shoulder instead. Considered by some to be the best shop in Okinawa.
