We we're greeted at the door by multiple people and promptly seated. We each got an order of nigiri, my wife got the tuna and I decided to go with the king crab. They arrived quickly and were cleanly assembled and presented. We both agreed it was some of the best nigiri either of us have had.
We both ordered the ramen for our main dish. I wouldn't say it was the best ramen I've ever had, but it was still delicious and I would recommend on your first visit. The pork broth was very salty (as it should be) but not over powering. I did wish that I had some spicy chili flakes to add to it. Overall, we both really enjoyed our visit to Shinano. The wait staff was very friendly and the unlimited, free green tea was a nice touch.
