The soba served here is excellent! It is freshly milled, freshly handmade for the day. It is not overcooked, so it's not too soft and retains its chewy texture. I also like the soba sauce here. You are given a raw quail egg to mix into the soba sauce which makes the soba sauce a little thicker and more flavourful. I really enjoyed slurping up every last strand of soba dipped in the sauce.

I also like the soba sauce here. You are given a raw quail egg to mix into the soba sauce which makes the soba sauce a little thicker and more flavourful. I really enjoyed slurping up every last strand of soba dipped in the sauce. After your soba meal, you will be offered hot soba water. It is essentially water used to cook the soba in and we were told it retains a lot of nutrients and vitamins. You are suposed to mix it with the remaining soba sauce that is left for an after meal drink to aid digestion. I'm a little skeptical about the nutrients and aiding digestion part, but the special "soba tea" was a tad salty but not too bad at all!And if you order any two soba set or set meals, you will be entitled to get a mini dessert for an additional $4.
We had the Mini Anmitsu which was a delightful dessert served with fresh fruits, mochi and ice cream, bringing a satisfying end to our meal. The service here was also very good; we had a very enthusiastic waitress serving us and she explained the dishes patiently to us and also asked if we enjoyed the meal.It gets really crowded during lunch and dinner hours but if you are able to pop by at 3-5pm weekdays, there are special promotion sets available.
