5-star
soba,
3-star
interior,
?-star
location
I
happen
to
like
driving
up
to
a
restaurant
(a
house)
in
the
middle
of
nowhere
wondering
if
I
have
the
right
location.
There's
a
little
excitement
in
not
knowing
whether
you
arrived
at
your
destination
or
someone's
residence.
I
came
here
based
on
an
article
I
read
that
raved
about
it.
The
interior
of
the
restaurant
is
definitely
someone's
house,
turned
restaurant.
There
are
four
irori
set
within
tree
trunks
to
eat
around
(which
means
there
is
enough
space
for
four
groups).
The
best
view
is
the
table
near
the
window,
and
its
highly
recommended
to
have
a
reservation.
I
luckily
showed
up
without
one
and
managed
to
squeeze
in
between
two
groups
who
did
the
grown
up
thing
and
planned
out
their
day
(made
reservations).
The
food
is
cooked
in
front
of
you,
and
while
the
specialty
is
soba
(actually
not
cooked
in
front
of
you),
the
sides
like
local
wishbone
chicken
and
river
fish
are
must-tries
(I'm
not
really
a
chicken
person
but
if
I
went
back
I
would
order
the
chicken
over
the
river
fish).
It
also
gives
you
something
to
do
while
your
soba
is
being
made.
And
the
soba
here
is
excellent.
I
love
soba
and
eat
at
a
lot
of
soba
restaurants.
I
try
to
only
give
high
ratings
on
my
Google
reviews
(or
abstain
from
reviewing),
yet
I
have
rated
two
soba
restaurants
less
than
5-stars.
This
restaurant
makes
great
soba.
One
thing
I
will
note
is
that
I
thought
the
side
dishes
were
priced
a
little
high
(at
around
900
yen
per
side).
This
is
not
a
place
where
you
will
be
full
when
you
leave
unless
you
are
willing
to
pay
around
3000
yen.
But
it's
quite
an
experience
to
sit
in
front
of
the
irori
in
an
old-ish
Japanese
house.
But
my
visit
was
all
about
the
soba,
and
it
delivered.
5-stars.
