Sobaya - Menu

The restaurant experience was pretty good, I would give it 4 stars. However, I felt that the food was a bit too salty and arrived slightly cold, but that could have been due to the delivery time.

The cold soba was a delightful summer indulgence and the seared salmon belly, Aburi Sake Toro, was the standout dish of our meal. It melted in our mouths and left our taste buds wanting more! Overall, we rated the food a 4 out of 5.

It's a lovely japanese soba shop. We ordered the soba with tempura and duck soba. The tempura was surprisingly fresh and good. We are visiting from Toronto and we think that there's no such soba shop like that in Toronto! It's definitely a must-visit spot! View menu

This restaurant in the East Village is fantastic! The atmosphere is lovely and the food is excellent. The prices are very reasonable for the location. I highly recommend trying the kanban curry, it was delicious! Overall, I give this restaurant a 5/5 rating for the food.

The broth was delicious and I really enjoyed the noodles. However, I was not impressed with the hot shrimp tempura soba as I felt the tempura lacked flavor. Perhaps trying the cold version would be better. Dinner was on the pricier side, but I would consider returning for a cold soba lunch. The restaurant got quite noisy during dinner service, which made it difficult to have conversations.

If you've been following me for a while, you'll know that I'm a fiend for soba noodles. The lightness of each noodle and balance of flavors makes it one of my favorite dishes.Soba-ya definitely doesn't disappoint. This here is the Ikura Oroshi, cold soba topped with ikura, seaweed, grated radishes... it's pretty much the perfect bowl. Pour the dashi over the noodles and enjoy it with the wasabi.@phidingthefam View menu

Ordered both the soba and salmon sashimi. The soba noodles were cooked well and did not stick to each other as I ate. But, I was ignored by one of the servers, who seemed to avoid wanting to take my order when I raised my hand and also for when I wanted to ask for the check to pay, despite the fact that he was serving all the other customers sitting in the area I sat in. He made eye contact and simply looked away. Though, it may have been because it was busy when I came :

Happy to stop by here for lunch! As a frequent visitor to Japan, I really recommend their buckwheat noodles! Although some little thing about other dishes that could be improved but overall worth to visit..!Noodles were really really outstanding, chewy but not soggy! And a ince I ordered Ten Zaru, the set came with shrimps tempura. Each of them was huge, crispy, and juicy inside..! AMAZING!For appetizer, I got sliced duck. It was tasty although slightly expensive.Last, matcha crème brûlée as dessert. I was a little bit sad because the burnt sugar didn’t go over all surface (as you may see in the photo, it only covered the middle part. The main cream part was good, a nice twist using matcha t...

No other competing Asian cuisines on the menu. Co-owner and mini-mogul, Bon Yagi, prefers authenticity to flash in his restaurants. No QR-codes in this Michelin Bibi Gourmand restaurant.

The soup arrived, but not the egg omelette, before our Yasal udon so... View menu
