I arrived at the restaurant around 5 PM on Saturday. I waited for about 40 minutes. I ordered the chicken white broth ramen. In short, it was a stylish ramen. It was creamy but relatively light. It was delicious, but I still prefer ramen with a stronger flavor.

30 minutes before the opening time, there was no line at all, but by 10 minutes before, there were 5-6 groups already lined up. Managed to get in on the first round (^_^) Ordered the Chicken White Soup Soba Truffle Style *Salt (1480 yen tax included) and Chicken Char Siu Butter Rice (380 yen tax included). Just so you know, this restaurant operates on a pre-payment system. The deep flavor of the chicken white soup really hits the spot. Tried comparing the simple soup with the truffle-infused one, both delicious! The slightly firm noodles were to my liking. On the other hand, the chicken char siu butter rice left a bit of a mediocre impression. The flavor was a bit bland, almost getting bored towards the end. Ended up turning it into a rice soup by mixing in some ramen soup (probably won't do that again).

I ordered chicken broth ramen. The soup itself has a rich flavor but is not too heavy. The chicken flavor is really well simmered, and it definitely goes well with rice. The chashu is juicy and complements the soup. The toppings of vegetables and bamboo shoots bring out the hidden flavors of the soup. Adding ginger and fried garlic as condiments halfway through also adds to the enjoyment of changing the taste.

Hamamashi (seafood rice) for 250 yen and Clam and Oyster Soba for 1500 yen. The Hamamashi was not worth trying, as it lacked seafood and flavor, with the mitsuba (Japanese wild parsley) being a distraction. The Clam and Oyster Soba, on the other hand, was delicious with a flavorful soup containing clam and oyster, along with meat. The fried onions and yuzu provided a nice touch, although the clams were not very meaty and could be easier to eat if removed from their shells. The oysters were good, but the meat (chicken or pork) was average. The soup was tasty, reminiscent of Daishoken, but the price was a bit high for the amount of ingredients. The Tsuke Soba had a rich seafood broth with a hint of acidity, similar to Daishoken. The fact that the ingredients were not in the dipping sauce was a plus. The pumpkin, which is usually difficult to enjoy in ramen, was surprisingly good as a flavor enhancer. Overall, while I liked the soup, the price was a bit steep considering the ingredients used.

As a fan of shellfish, I couldn't resist coming here. They serve clams and oysters, which are simply delicious! There's no way it could taste bad! The slightly sweet broth is just right. Personally, I prefer a spicier broth, but this level of sweetness would be enjoyable for anyone. After finishing the noodles, dipping the rice in the broth is also delicious. Many shellfish ramen tend to be light and broth-like, but this one has a good amount of richness. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is stylish and welcoming, making it easy for even a woman dining alone to feel comfortable. I highly recommend this place to everyone!

I couldn't find any available ramen shops near the ramen shop on the second floor of Lucua, so I decided to try it out. I was quite satisfied with the stylish presentation. The noodles were firm and the soup was delicious above all else. The pork was also very tender. Although finishing the ramen broth completely may feel guilty, it is a refined kind of guilty, so I definitely want to go back.

Chicken white broth ramen ¥1200 + ¥100 (extra noodles). Visited on Saturday evening around 4:40 pm. Waited with 5 people ahead of me. Was seated in about 20 minutes, ordered and paid at the counter first, then sat down. Got my ramen in 3-4 minutes. It was lighter than I expected, more like a light chicken white broth. It was easy to eat, smooth and finished the extra noodles. Thank you for the meal!

There is always a line at Ginza Kagari LUCUA Osaka branch for their Chicken Paitan Soba priced at 1,200 yen. The toppings include red turnip, bamboo shoots, red bell pepper, and pumpkin (toppings may vary depending on the season). The restaurant is clean, and the taste is creamy and incredibly delicious.

Chicken broth shoyu ramen with Hokkaido pork seared chashu in a Japanese-style sauce rice bowl. The chicken broth shoyu has a darker color due to the soy sauce. It has a strong flavor, perfect for those who prefer rich and bold tastes. In comparison, the other option is milder and easier to eat. Both soups are delicious. The Hokkaido pork seared chashu in a Japanese-style sauce rice bowl may have a long name, but the quality of the pork and sauce is undeniable. It is a high-quality dish that justifies its price. Thank you for the meal.

The fashionable ramen looks beautiful, but I felt the taste was too strong. We shared the Chicken White Broth Truffle Soy and Clam and Oyster Soba between two people, and personally, I preferred the Clam and Oyster Soba. Next time, I want to try the dipping noodles.

In the basement of Lucua in Umeda, there is a ramen shop with a long line that serves chicken white broth ramen. The price is a bit high, over 1,000 yen. The chicken white broth ramen is visually appealing with decorative vegetables, and the soup is on the thinner side, more on the light side. I personally preferred adding pepper to enhance the flavor. What I liked more than the ramen was the butter rice bowl. The combination of chicken breast, butter, and sauce was delicious.

JR Osaka Station direct access, visited LUCUA underground 2nd floor: 1 person in line at 16:30 on a weekday, 5-minute wait. Genre: Ramen, Tsukemen. More than half of the customers are tourists from overseas. The calm, Japanese-style restaurant with a traditional atmosphere is appealing to inbound tourists. It operates on a pre-order system before seating, so it's best to decide on your order while waiting. - Special Tsukemen Soba 1,200 yen The special includes both chicken and pork char siu, topped with a seasoned egg. It also comes with vegetables like bamboo shoots, pumpkin, and bell peppers. The rich dipping sauce leaves a lingering deliciousness. It was very tasty. - Draft Beer 600 yen Overall, I hope the staff pay more attention to customers. The service was good, but it could be improved when the staff are not directly interacting with customers. However, I am satisfied with the experience and would like to visit again. Thank you for the meal.

Chicken broth salt ramen for 1200 yen, chicken chashu butter rice for 380 yen. How should I evaluate it? I like the soup and noodles, which are the core of ramen. However, the toppings are all dragging it down. I wonder if it would appeal to women. I asked around. By chance or not, about half of the customers in the restaurant were women. That seems like a lot for a ramen shop. It was a Friday night before 9 o'clock, with a wait of 5 people. I was able to get in after about 10 minutes. When I passed by a few times before, the line was longer, so I decided to wait this time. I must have had good timing because there were over 10 people waiting when I left. The ramen looks beautiful. It's more like Italian than ramen. But what I want to ask is, do they really think turnips, paprika, and even pumpkin go well with ramen? Maybe if they were more cooked they would go well, but fresh vegetables have a crispy texture. It feels out of place. Turnips have been good in ramen I've had before, but pumpkin is just too much. The chashu is like salad chicken that a fitness enthusiast would enjoy. It lacks richness and fat. If it was more tender, it might have been different. And the soup. Delicious! Surprisingly light. It's lighter than it looks. It feels like it's been diluted with something. It's just right and delicious. It was a bit salty, so I would like to dilute it with just the saltiness. The garlic chips and ginger for flavor change are also good. The garlic chips surprisingly go well. The noodles are normal and delicious. There was a box of Mikawa-ya noodles on the counter. Thanks to the Sazae-san effect, Mikawa-ya. Just the name sounds delicious. Chashu rice. Plenty of chashu. However, like the ramen chashu, it's bland. The amount of butter provided is not enough. Would you like rice with your ramen? I was asked and ordered it, but it wasn't necessary. Just the ramen is fine. Hmm. It's hard to judge. If the ramen was just 800 yen, it would be okay. But for 1200 yen... not so much. Yeah. I was debating whether to spend over 1000 yen on Takedoi's tsukemen, and then I went somewhere else and spent this much. I need to think more carefully. Well, thank you for the meal.

Located in Umeda's Balcika. Balcika always has a lot of shops and it's easy to get lost, but whenever I pass by here, I always end up stopping by. The atmosphere of the restaurant is like a Japanese cuisine place. You pay at the register before being seated. They had a new dish called Chicken White Soy Sauce. Priced the same as the Chicken White Soup at 1200 yen. This one is really irresistible for Chicken White Soup lovers! The first mouthful is incredibly delicious...!!! The soup has a sweetness to it. The vegetables on top are refreshing. The chicken chashu is tender and juicy! You can choose your condiments from the ones listed on the table. The brown rice vinegar is too overpowering, it takes away from the soup... I think simple black pepper is the best! The freshly grated ginger that comes with it is also delicious. When the line extended to the escalator, we waited about an hour, but when it was just along the wall, it was only about 20-30 minutes, so I find it very convenient compared to searching for various places to eat!

The chicken broth soup paired well with the noodles. It tasted rich but also somewhat light... The butter soy sauce chicken chashu bowl was delicious too. Drizzling a little bit of soup over the bowl made it even better. I visited around 7 pm on a weekday and only had to wait for about 15 minutes to get in, so I guess I was lucky.

It's been a while since I visited Kagari. Even on a weekday at 2pm, there were 10 people waiting ahead of me. Still, it's not too bad, I guess. I was seated inside after about 20 minutes. Today was hot and humid, so I ordered the cold boiled sardine soba for 1200 yen. They don't offer extra-large portions, so I also got the truffle soy sauce butter rice. The butter rice arrived in less than 10 minutes. Soon after, the cold boiled sardine soba was served. The quality of cold soba can vary, but how was this one? I took a sip of the soup and it was absolutely exquisite! The flavor and umami of the sardines were bursting, yet so refined! There was no roughness at all. The meat on top looked like a rose and was like a work of art. I usually don't finish my soup, but this time I drank it all in one go. This is definitely a place I will come back to. I was completely satisfied with this fantastic dish.

First, come to JR Kitashinchi Station and walk north to the TOP5000 store on the B2F of Lucua. There were 6 people lined up around 14:50. It's outside of lunchtime, but it's a commercial facility, so maybe it would have been better to come earlier. It took about 15 minutes to get inside the store. It seems you have to pay in advance. I paid 1200 yen with a card for the recommended chicken shio ramen. I was seated at the end of the counter and the food was served in about 3 minutes. The soup was creamy and had a gentle taste, but honestly, it was not very satisfying. It might be good for women or children, but it's not the type of ramen for men who eat a lot. The clientele also seemed to be like that. Objectively, it's in the category of delicious. The noodles were medium-thin straight noodles, easy to eat. Is this garlic chip? I tried adding it to improve the taste. The chashu was made of chicken meat, tender and tasty. There was ginger included, which I also added out of curiosity, but it didn't make much of a difference. The vegetables were not that great. Now, let's head to the main attraction, the ice cream and gelato shop aiming to be in the top 100.

Today's lunch was at Ginza Kagari LUCUA Osaka store, which I found on Tabelog and was curious about. I arrived at 10:40 am and was the 6th person in line after a group of 5 foreigners. By the time the store opened, there was a line of over 15 people behind me. I ordered the Chicken White Broth Soba with extra noodles and special toppings for 1600 yen, which felt a bit expensive. The food was served in about 10 minutes, and the special toppings were served separately, so I added them to my ramen. The soup had a concentrated sweetness of chicken, and the medium-thick straight noodles had a chewy texture, which was delicious. The chicken chashu was slightly dry, but it was okay. The pork chashu was rare and moist, which was tasty. The soft-boiled egg was cooked perfectly. Among the side vegetables, the bamboo shoots were delicious, but the others didn't quite match well. The condiments, like onions, were good, but I felt like the ginger was unnecessary. I finished all the soup. It was a satisfying meal.

I visited around noon on a weekday. There were about 15 people waiting. I was able to enter by 12:30. I ordered chicken white broth soba with truffle salt and Hamameshi. The soup was delicious! The richness of the chicken and the aroma of truffle hit you hard, with no unpleasant smell of chicken, it was an elegant and rich soup, it was amazing!

Order: Chicken white broth soba, seared chashu with Japanese sauce rice. This popular restaurant located in the underground of Lucua was quite crowded around 8 p.m. on a weekday. After wandering around and checking out other stores on the same floor, I returned to find that the line had decreased a bit, so I decided to wait in line. I entered the restaurant after about 20 minutes. The system was to pay first and then be seated. At this time, some items like tsuke soba and mixed rice were sold out. The chicken white broth soba was a trendy creamy broth with delicious toppings and thin noodles that were satisfying. The chashu rice with Japanese sauce was incredibly tasty, especially when mixed with the rice. This time, I actually preferred the rice bowl over the ramen. Overall, the food was delicious, but the prices were a bit high and the wait was a bit tough, so I'm not sure if I would come back again.
