The ramen here is your basic ramen. They have the miso ramen, salt ramen, or soy sauce ramen bowls. These are the common base flavors of all ramen shops. The extras that can be ordered for your soup bowl include boiled egg and strips of nori (dried seaweed). These ingredients really add to the flavor making for a nice lunch or dinner. Ramen shops are generally quite small and narrow. This goes for Bariki-ya Ramen as well, so if you have a large group, it can be a little difficult to fit everyone in. If you can, this is a nice little ramen store.

The noodles themselves, being one of the ingredients, are blended from strong wheat in Hokkaido. Blended brown and white miso used in their dishes are stored in wooden barrels of Shinshuyama Manmiso giving the miso a sharp taste. This single store can be found across from Nakajima Park.
