I think you are right. I went to their Japanese web page and it says, if I understand it correctly, that they started in Shinjuku in Tokyo. When I originally wrote it I remember reading pieces on e.g. Mercury News saying they started in Fukuoka. But I will stick with their own web page, unless there is some side story we don’t know about. The only presence nowadays they have in Fukuoka is at the Fukuoka airport.

We don’t need another in the Bay, but we kinda do in Palo Alto since I am not aware of any ramen places other than Dohatsuten. @bbulkow I finally went to Dohatsuten a few days ago, and I will get to a more detailed report later. But Nagi is noticeably better. Dohatsuten’s tonkotsu broth was a bit watery and the meat was a step down as well.
But yes, @twocents I think if we get more ramen variety other than tonkotsu, it’ll be better. Give us some dried seafood types like in their logo:
