Minca is a small, cozy restaurant that serves authentic ramen with a great atmosphere. The pork belly chashu is a favorite, as the broths are rich and flavorful with chewy noodles. The staff is friendly and welcoming, making customers feel like part of the family. Despite its popularity, the service remains prompt, and the chefs are experienced. The Minca shio (salt) ramen is a must-try, and the space, though tiny, offers a top-notch overall experience. Many regulars hope it stays under the radar to avoid long waiting lines, as it remains a hidden gem. The restaurant is known for its no-nonsense vibe, perfect for soul food ramen, and is appreciated for its consistency over the years. It is also praised for its tsukemen broth, which compares favorably to well-known spots, offering good quality at a lower price.
