About this spot
As the true head office of Soba Matsuba, this Nishiki Market staple serves steaming bowls of thick, chewy buckwheat noodles that locals swear by. The broth is rich and savory, perfectly balancing the earthy flavor of the soba without being overly salty. It is a no-frills experience where the focus remains entirely on the quality of the handmade noodles.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the 'tsuyu' (dipping sauce) separately if you prefer to adjust the saltiness to your own taste.
- Bring cash only, as this traditional spot in Nishiki Market does not accept credit cards.
- Sit at the counter to watch the chef prepare and serve your bowl of soba directly from the kitchen.
