I highly recommend this restaurant. The vibe is amazing, and the service is so nice and sweet. The lobster wrapped in seaweed is a standout dish. The cold soba is excellent; the sauce is sooo flavorful and pairs perfectly with the fresh, high-quality ingredients. Everything here tastes incredibly fresh and delicious. Definitely will come back again.

Comforting hot soba during a cold winter night. My broth was nice and smoky but not overpowering. The beef and tofu were tender and juicy. I also liked the steamed gyoza which was also juicy. My friend liked the braised unagi don.

Sugidama Soba & Izakaya welcomes you with a warm, inviting atmosphere—tasteful decor, friendly staff, and a genuine sense of hospitality. Though their specialty is clearly soba, I found the noodles didn’t quite live up to the hype. On the upside, the seared squid was outstanding—easily the highlight of the meal and one of my favorite dishes ever. The rest of the menu offered solid, if unremarkable, fare that paired nicely with the cozy surroundings. Service was polite but a bit uneven, which kept the experience from being flawless. All told, Sugidama Soba & Izakaya delivers a pleasant dining experience with standout seafood and a welcoming vibe. I’d happily return and would rate it 4 out of 5 stars.

The food here is delicious, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The small plates had that perfect balance of comfort and creativity. However, the service left much to be desired. Our check was dropped on the table before we even took a bite of our dessert, which made us feel like we were being rushed out. It took away from an otherwise great dining experience. I’d still come back for the food, but I hope the staff can offer a more relaxed and thoughtful approach to service next time.

Torch Toro roll is really good! Agedashi tofu is so flavorful. Most of the signature rolls are really great too! Service is amazing, servers are really attentive. Ambiance is calm and peaceful. We had 10 people- 8 adults and 2 small children. They were super accommodating. Will definitely come back to visit often!
