What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A celebrated handmade soba restaurant tucked in a quiet residential area of Kotesashi, Tokorozawa. Fresh soba flour is stone-ground in-house daily from temperature-controlled buckwheat husked the day before, using a blend of Hokkaido and Ibaraki varieties. The ni-hachi (80:20 buckwheat-to-flour) soba is praised for its 'overwhelmingly intense aroma unlike anything elsewhere.' Selected as a Tabelog Soba Top 100 Restaurant five times (2017, 2018, 2022, 2024, 2025). Only 20 seats — reservations highly recommended. 12 min walk from Shimoyamaguchi Station.

'A powerful handmade soba worthy of the Okina name.' 'An overwhelmingly intense aroma you can't find anywhere else.' 'Many regulars on their 2nd and 3rd visits.' 'The tempura is crispy and pairs perfectly with the soba.' 'The place is small, but I am always glad I came before they sell out.'
