A ramen shop is a casual eatery specializing in Japanese noodle soup dishes. It typically offers a variety of ramen bowls, each featuring different broths, noodles, and toppings. Customers can choose from options like miso, shoyu, or tonkotsu ramen, and customize their orders with ingredients like sliced pork, seaweed, soft-boiled eggs, and scallions. Ramen shops often have a cozy and informal ambiance, with counter seating or small tables, allowing patrons to savor their steaming bowls of noodles and broth.
