Noodle Sama

Japanese restaurant

👍👍 The noodle dish Sama Tofu was delicious and full of flavour. My three companions all enjoyed their dishes as well, although the donburi seemed to be a bit too small to be filling. Service was excellent. We got a selection of salads as appetizer and some melon for dessert, both complementary.
