小樽・蕎麦屋・籔半

During a free morning on a cruise ship docked in Otaru, we walked to the restaurant for a soba noodle experience. Other reviews said to arrive at opening if you did not have a reservation. We were a little early and were seated quickly after opening. We were the only non-Asians there and the rest...aurant filled quickly. Our entrees were shrimp tempura and duck soup with the delicious soba noodles. The service was excellent and accommodating for our limited Japanese. Our lunch was highly memorable. Wonderful hospitality here.

Ordered both cold and hot soba with tempura set. Preferred cold soba for the noodles taste and texture. Most customer are tourist, English menu available

What an awesome place to visit and have a meal. We sat on the traditional tatami mat. A little hard on the body if you’re older and not used to sitting on the floor. The food was delicious and some of the best tempura and soba we have ever had. There was a line at the door, but our guide was able ...to get us an early reservation.

When we arrived, there was a long queue and people has to sit outside the restaurant to wait for their turn. Do approach a staff to write down your name before you start to wait. This restaurant has English menu and easy to order. We order different cold soba noodle and both was great. We also tr...ied the Otaru beer and I like it's light taste too.

We had a really nice dinner in Yabuhan. This spot caught us by its nice furbishment and the super-friendly staff. Finally the food was super-good. I had one of the sobas, was really good. Prices were okay. Just to mention, we had to pay cash that day - just don‘t know if that was a failure that part...icular day or it is that way in general. However, if you have a chance to go there - do it!! You will certainly like it.
