The soba noodles are dripping with authenticity. This is one of my favorite dinner spots in the city. During my last visit we started with Uni Tororo (Fresh Sea Urchin & Grated Mountain Yam) and a tempura medley. For the main course I enjoyed my Chirashi hot soba (Baby Sardine Tempura, Japanese Omelette, Shiitake Mushroom, Fried Bean Curd & Fish Cake). Soba-ya offers both hot and cold soba noodle options. The decor transports patrons back to Japan.
Loved all of their soba options. I recommend getting any of the "fattier" types with pork since they are heavier in broth and much more filling. The noodles are soft and perfectly prepared. One of my favorite places in the East Village in general.
This soba joint is my all time favorite place in E.village. Good selections of sake, and variety of food menu beside the noodles. So many soba place have opened in these days but can't beat their hand cut soba!
