Shimuja is hands down the best ramen I ever had in my life. I have travelled to Japan and had ramen in different locations and Shimuja still ranks #1. This is the only Shimuja location in the United States the other two are in Japan. The food is very authentic and flavorful. Nice open area too.

First Watch is about 10 minutes away from our home. They have a year-round menu and a seasonal menu as well. They always have an amazing menu selection.
