About this place
After a bowl of sea bream ramen in a salt-seasoned broth, there is still the question of how to round out the meal: sea bream rice or sea bream ochazuke? ISOLABO lets you pair noodles with a rice dish and choose how the meal unfolds.
The salt sea bream ramen set with mini sea bream ochazuke is a good fit if you want a small bowl of ochazuke after your ramen. One diner who ordered this combination said the salt-seasoned broth, made with sea bream stock, was light yet full of flavour, and that the ochazuke topped with slices of sea bream worked well alongside it. If you are deciding between salt and soy sauce, starting with the salt version is one option. Some diners have enjoyed it, while others found the soy sauce sea bream ramen clean-tasting, so there is room to compare the two according to your preference.
For a more substantial rice pairing, there is the IsoLABO set with sea bream rice. Sets are available with both the salt and soy sauce ramen, and the menu suggests pouring the remaining soup over the seasoned rice for an ochazuke-style finish. In the evening, the menu also includes dishes such as grilled sea bream miso rice balls and special chicken nanban, alongside sake and shochu. There are options for a meal centred on ramen and ochazuke at lunchtime, as well as for an evening of drinks and small plates.
The menu also lists chilled sea bream dipping noodles with sudachi as a seasonal, limited-quantity dish. It is available only for a limited time; if you see it, you could follow the menu’s suggestion to try the noodles with the salt seasoning first, then ask for soup to dilute the dipping broth at the end.
Dine-in service and counter seating make the restaurant an option for a solo lunch of sea bream ramen and a rice dish. The listed payment method is cash only.
