Suba VS

Enoki tempura soba

Slurping buckwheat noodles while standing is called tachigui soba.  Suba Soba from Kyoto has opened its first branch in Tokyo, called Suba VS, serving up the same signature hot bowls of noodles.

About a dozen of menu options ranging from a simple enoki mushroom tempura fried into a thin fan bringing out its meaty notes to beef with an onsen tamago. Seasonal offerings in spring included hamaguri clams and sakura shrimp tempura. 

Menu

The barebones shop – exposed walls, basic wooden panels, and a rough floor – walk carefully. Popular with locals. It’s a quick meal, perfect for a quick pick-me-up.

The toppings are creative and out of the norm of traditional soba-ya restaurants. Think karasumi bottarga roe, gyoza 🥟 potstickers, or offal with yellow garlic chives.

Wines by the glass on the 2nd floor.

Glass 🍷 wines only ¥500 ($3.50).☺️
