Incredible noodle, tasty radish, of course, the burst of juicy salmon roe, a touch of natural sweetness, just right, not salty.
I recommend you to try the Shrimp Tempura, it will give you a boldly taste of shrimp.
oishi !!
thanks master, your handmade noodle was awesome.
I will come back for the uni.

Top notch soba here. Got the sea eel tempura don with cold soba and I loved the juicy and tender sea eel. The soba was al dente and chewy, very fresh. The soba dipping sauce was also very tasty. We also got the soba noodle tempura and the roast duck yuzu as appetizers. I would recommend skipping those as they were not memorable and get right to chow ing down on some amazing soba noodles.

Was here for lunch during the week with a colleague. Ordered the lunch special. It came in a bento with tempura, pickled veggies, plus crab and roe over rice. A zara soba came shortly after and then we had ice cream for dessert. All for $ 25. Good deal! I’m not a tempura person but actually quite enjoyed the tempura which was lightly battered and had a nice taste when dipped with the sauce. You’ll be seeing more of me!!! :)

It’s good. Got the $ 20 lunch special with various tempura and cold soba. big portions, no complaints here. Might be slightly expensive but it’s comparable to other soba places in EV

Small, casual dining. Nice selection of soba noodles. Got there on Sat night around 730 — about 30 min wait but appears you can make a reservation

Despite some negative reviews around, I must say I really liked this place! And even more so when I found that they combined two of my favorite foods (soba and uni!!) in the same dish! Basically it was a portion of uni, salmon roe, seaweed and wasabi served on a bed of soba noodles, and the sauce came in a little pot on the side. I went here for lunch, and I thought the portion size was perfect. In my opinion, this is definitely one of the few spots around lower Manhattan that serves authentic Jap food at a reasonable price point. To be clear, I haven’t been to Sobaya (which a lot of people are comparing this place to), so I can’t say which one is better value for money etc. But service was wonderful here, and you got to see the soba noodles being made!

The food was very good. I loved their food. It was so clean and the soba was the best. Even better than soba toto and sobaya. This place was very cozy so that only 20ish ppl can fit in. But the food was so clean. It was amazingly boring but so addictive. I really recommend this place for you to try. Food comes out in 10 minutes and they made their own soba which is, i can proudly say, the best in new york city. Idk. I think you can find better place. But if your a japanese food holic, you should definately try this place. It is totally worth trying and you really have to if you define yourself as a japanese food holic. The interior? Meh. Its more like unfinished but who cares? Their food is so great. It was really impressive one of their chef made their own soba at the entrance. Just how he looks, i was pretty sure hes expert. After i tasted it, I guarantee you will love this place. Try their lunch. Why not.

Portion size is way too small and a little overpriced compared to Soba-Ya on 9^th St, which is slightly more conveniently-located. I got the salmon spring appetizer, which is basically salmon sashimi in a ponzu sauce — very nondescript. The cold ikura soba I got was also not that great — the noodles were unappetizingly pale and not as al dente as I would have liked. I still felt hungry after finishing my bowl and that dish cost $ 21. I believe the large portion at Soba Ya costs $ 21 — and you can go for a small or medium too.
Next time I’m having a soba craving, I’m going to Soba-Ya.

When I was looking up this place on Unilocal,I thought it was the same as Soba-Ya but turns out they are 2 different restaurants. This place is a lot smaller than Soba-Ya. I thought that they took reservations, so I made one. But when I showed up, they had no idea that I had made a reservation. Either way, I got a table without waiting.
This place isn’t huge, and if you sit near the door during winter, it would be a little cold every time someone opens and closes the door. You can sit at a table or at the counter.
Depending on whether you are in the room for rice or soba, they have both, and even combinations of both. For soba, you can have it hot or cold. I decided to go for the bento lunch special, so I could get both rice and soba. It also came with tempura and a scoop of ice cream. The soba was really good, it was cooked al dente. The tempura was extremely crispy. For my rice I had sea eel on top– you can also opt to get crab meat on top instead.
Overall, a great japanese place to eat soba.

ordered the Uni sashami and it was soo good– so creamy and fresh. a bit pricey but hey it’s Uni!
got the duck soba– I like the textures of the freshly handmade noodles and the broth but the duck was overcooked– it was very dry. I also had the tempura and it was crispy but not seasoned well.
the green tea ice cream was very good– not too sweet and had just enough matcha in it.

I had a craving for soba and this place delivered.
Although I was imagining soba in a hot broth, once I caught sight of the cold uni and ikura soba, I couldn’t resist. It was delicious– soba had the right amount of bite and flavor. The uni and ikura went well together atop of the noodles too.
We shared an anago tempura starter as well. The tempura outer part was done perfectly.

Our favorite soba restaurant! It’s hard to get soba as good as SobaKoh even in Japan. SobaKoh is definitely the NY’s finest. Their appetizers are good too. If they have Kobujime (marinated with kombu) sashimi, you should try it!

My first time having soba noodles, which was a good experience. The noodles are handmade which was served in a bamboo rack and dipped in broth to your liking also served with various fish cakes and veggies in a bento box. The orders seems kinda of small but it is very filling and the flavors are great. Quite pricey in my opinion and has limited seating.
Service was wonderful.

Great food & service. I came here for the first time with a friend who loves Japanese food & is visiting from Los Angeles. We wanted something light, healthy & cold due to the sweltering heatwave NYC is currently experiencing. This place hit the spot. The food was delicious & the presentation was nice. If you like house-made soba, I definitely recommend this restaurant.

I walked passed and entered without knowing that it’s probably the best handmade soba place in the states. It’s small but the atmosphere is great. Food is really authentic, all soba noodles are handmade, so fresh and tasty. Plus the price is reasonable and affordable. Will def be back if I want Soba!

Sobakoh offers a welcome retreat from the hustle and bustle of the busier St. Marks. I’ve been here twice now, once for lunch and once for dinner and got the uni ikura soba both times.
The noodles are made fresh, and you can see the chef at work cutting the noodles through the window. They have a pretty extensive menu of both hot and cold soba, in addition to sushi, appetizers, rice bowls… etc. I’ve also tried the pressed sushi which was just ok, so I’d recommend sticking to the soba here.
I also wish the portions were a little bigger. I understand uni and ikura are expensive, and for $ 23 you probably won’t get too much, but they could at least be a bit more generous with the noodle portion.

Boo Boo took me here for Friday Frolic after work. We arrived here right after 5:30pm for dinner service.
We shared the duck breast and age tofu appetizers. I got the Hot soba with fried eel and Boo boo got the cold soba with shrimp tempura.
If we didn’t order the apps we would have still been starving. But our meal was not overly too expensive. And we knew we would be going to snowday shavery afterwards.
Seating is very limited so bring a snack and watch the guy make the soba and individually count each strand.

Sobakoh is a little restaurant quite out of the way. The inside looks dainty and tidy just like how I’d imagine a noodle shop in a Japanese town to look. There is a window which lets you see the chef makes buckwheat noodle behind the glass (just like Soba-Ya). You can trust that the soba is made-on-the-spot fresh.
Their soba recipes are quite the contrary from the famous Cocoron known for their flavorful soba recipes. Sobakoh uses less and simpler (1 – 4) toppings on its soba, which is alright because the soba is delicious and can hold on its own. Its soba is thinner and smoother in texture than most soba houses I’ve visited. Its grated yam as a topping was the freshest which really wowed me. I recommend its duck cold soba or Ikura cold soba (salmon roe and grated yam). However, good as it may be, Sobakoh’s soba is still no more superior than say, Soba Totto.
Sobakoh’s (cold) soba portion for $ 20 was embarrassingly small. There is an option to add extra soba to your bowl for $ 5. I could’ve eaten two bowls ($ 40 worth) of soba on one sitting. Their appetizers are also small portioned for their prices. It’s difficult to share them. We ordered the octopus with cucumber and seaweed in vinaigrette — refreshing and delicious.
I wondered why there was no wait for a table for 4 on Friday evening. I doubt many people would be willing to spend on overpriced soba when there are plenty of equal if not better options in town.

Yum. Yum. Yum.
There’s a bit of a wait since the restaurant is pretty small but it’s definitely well worth it. I think I was a bit reluctant to go to a place with the word «soba» in it because I’m not the biggest fan of soba noodles but this place had me change my mind. The soba broth was delicious and the noodles were cooked well.
Because I wasn’t sure if I would like the soba noodles or not, I got the entrée with half soba (hot) and half rice with tempera shrimp, vegetables and eel. I really enjoyed the rice dish and could eat all things in tempura batter. Next time I come, I want to try the bento box deal! For $ 25 (I believe), it comes with a variety of items and even dessert at the end. I recommend trying that if you aren’t quite sure what to get.
Overall, service was good. While it is a bit pricey, I recommend that you try this place if you’re looking for authentic Japanese food.

I came here with 3 other friends and was so excited to try this place for the first time. Based on the reviews we saw I thought this place would be amazing. I was so disappointed with our meal. Got the most basic kake soba and wasn’t impressed. The broth was way too sour. I’d recommend soba totto’s hot soba any day over what they serve here. It really isn’t that good. I won’t be coming back again for their soba, it’s just not worth it.
