About a 7-minute walk from Owada Station on the Tobu Noda Line, Hotaru occupies a standalone building with a spacious parking lot and has been known for its lines since 2004. Its signature ramen features an elegant flavor combining seafood flakes such as saury and mackerel with chicken broth, accented by the fragrance of yuzu and hearty chashu pork. The menu also offers fun choices such as rich seafood tsukemen with springy, extra-thick noodles, and spicy ocean miso soba layered with the savory depths of shrimp and crab. Finishing your meal by mixing miso-flavored Hotaru rice with a soft-boiled egg and chashu pork is another popular tradition. The interior has a relaxing atmosphere with jazz playing in the background, offering 12 counter seats, spacious table seats, and child booster seats, making it easy for families to stop by. A numbered ticket system allowing guests to wait in their cars and efficient guidance help ease the stress of crowded times.
