Today's dinner was at Isshin in Akasaka. I went with a friend, walking from Akasaka-Mitsuke station for about 5-6 minutes. It's a straight road from the station, so easy to find. I made a reservation just in case (it was quite crowded, so I recommend making a reservation). We were seated at a table and started with a small beer. It was delicious! The menu included grated yam with wasabi, sushi restaurant-style rolled omelette, three kinds of fried fish cakes, fresh fish tartare with myoga, spicy stir-fried green chili peppers and dried baby sardines, and fluffy deep-fried large conger eel. We also had sake such as Dewazakura, Matsumoto, and Shimotsuke. For dessert, we shared a large cold soba noodle set with dipping sauce, grated radish with chili, and specialty grated yam. The soba was amazing, especially when mixed with the toppings. Overall, the food was delicious, the atmosphere was clean and stylish but not too formal. I really enjoyed it and will definitely visit again!

The soba kaiseki was very delicious and reasonably priced. The selection of sake was also extensive, and we enjoyed some very tasty sake. Today, we had the course meal starting with a appetizer of three dishes: tasty chicken, sasami with salad, and green onion and meat salad. It was very delicious. Next, we had a sashimi assortment followed by grilled half of a salt-grilled blackthroat sea perch, simmered half of a blackthroat sea perch, and roasted duck. These were all very luxurious and delicious. We also had a seasonal tempura and buckwheat soba, which were very tasty. Lastly, we finished with a very delicious melon. Thank you for the feast.

After exiting the Akasaka Station gate of the Tokyo Metro Chiyoda Line, head towards Exit 2, and once you exit Exit 2, go right towards the Hie Shrine. When you reach the Seven-Eleven, you will find a shop on the left side. I had a sashimi platter which included flounder, grouper, amberjack, medium fatty tuna, red sea bream, striped jack, and sea bass. It was a delight to have sea bass sashimi after a long time. I love its transparent white flesh with a mild yet distinctive flavor. Interestingly, sea bass is in season during summer. Eating it in season was truly delightful. Sashimi somehow always goes well with sake. I also tried the Deep-Fried Jumbo Shrimp with Mango Mayonnaise. The crispy jumbo shrimp coated in mango mayonnaise was a treat for seafood and mayo lovers. It was my first time trying mango mayonnaise, and surprisingly, it paired well with the dish, providing a new and enjoyable taste experience. I had the Grilled Blackthroat Seaperch Assortment as well. I requested a combination of simmered head and grilled meat this time. It was satisfying to savor both the simmered and grilled blackthroat seaperch at the same time. Blackthroat seaperch is said to be most delicious from July to October, with September being the peak season after the spawning period. Once again, enjoying it in season was a delight. For the finish, I had the Tempura Soba Set. It was made from premium soba flour from Akita, resulting in a unique flavor and aroma that you can't experience with regular soba. The rough texture of the soba flour, the chewiness of the noodles, and the crispy tempura were all delightful. It's a must-try for soba lovers. The tempura included shiitake mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, and two prawns. Of course, ending the meal with soba broth was a perfect way to savor the lingering flavors. As for drinks, I had some sake. For the first glass, I tried the Gassanryu Gokugetsu from Yamagata. It was a refined junmai daiginjo sake with an elegant ginjo aroma, a pleasant mouthfeel, and a moderate sharpness. It's made from the sake rice Dewasansan, fermented with Yamagata yeast, and can be considered the "crystal of Yamagata." For the second glass, I enjoyed the Ura Gassanryu Kouka from Yamagata. It offered a subtle fragrance, a citrus-like aroma, and a refreshing taste. Surprisingly, it's a sake recommended even for beginners. Lastly, I had the Kaizan Ichidokusui Junmai Daiginjo from Mie. It was a refined sake with an elegant taste and a pleasant aftertaste. The Ichidokusui series from ZAKU PREMIUM aims to pursue a higher level of flavor, embodying the teaching that every existence, from mountains to rivers to plants, contains the life of Buddha, even in a single drop of water. This sake is a new challenge from "ZAKU" to achieve a more sophisticated taste. Soba lovers and sake enthusiasts alike will find this restaurant highly recommended.

I enjoyed it at the counter seats. The Isshin Highball was refreshing and very easy to drink. The menu I ordered was delicious. I especially liked the duck. It's a bit disappointing for me, who likes to drink during the day, that they only open at night. The restaurant was bustling with full tables. There were many female customers.

I finally visited this shop that I had been curious about for a while. The food was delicious and they served the course quickly, which was helpful since I was in a bit of a hurry. The service was also very much appreciated. There were some noisy customers nearby that day, which may have slightly affected the overall impression. I would like to go back again next time to reevaluate.

"Soba-mae" refers to the style of enjoying appetizers at a soba restaurant while waiting for the freshly made soba to be served, then quickly eating the soba and leaving in a stylish manner. It is a sophisticated style that was favored by the people of Edo. The restaurant "Sobawakouan Isshin" in Akasaka, Minato-ku, Tokyo, embodies this "soba-mae" style. The restaurant caters to business meetings where people can enjoy delicious food and drinks in a short amount of time. However, it is important to note that the soba at this restaurant is made using a machine, not hand-made, which may come as a shock to soba enthusiasts. Additionally, the restaurant offers a variety of luxurious dishes that go beyond the traditional soba-mae style, such as fresh sashimi, grilled miso, and fried dishes. The restaurant has a warm and clean atmosphere, and is popular among customers. It is recommended to make a reservation in advance, as the restaurant tends to get crowded. Overall, the restaurant provides a lively and enjoyable dining experience.

I wanted to eat soba in Akasaka after a long time, so I felt relieved that this shop served 100% soba. The soba had plenty of meat and green onions on top, and it was delicious with its smooth and firm noodles. Thank you for the meal.

After drinking, there's nothing better than finishing off with some Japanese soba noodles, right? In that case, it might be good to drink at a soba noodle restaurant. Just a 2-minute walk from Akasaka Station, this new restaurant is known for serving 100% soba noodles and a selection of sake that pairs perfectly with Japanese cuisine. The half-size serving of noodles starts at 350 yen, perfect for a light snack. Of course, they also offer full-size servings for those who are more hungry. Let's start with a toast with a glass of beer and soba tea. I decided to go for a non-alcoholic drink this time. The grilled miso with yuzu and walnuts was a great match with alcohol. The soba seeds on top added a nice touch. The dressing for the soba noodle restaurant's salad was a wasabi and shiso flavor, perfect for adults. The chewy texture of the soba seeds added a nice accent. The diced raw fish, more like cut-offs, were surprisingly large and chunky. The sweet egg roll was delicious with a nice balance of charred flavor and fluffy texture. I spotted the Shinsei No.6 X-Type (fresh sake) on the menu! I couldn't resist trying it. My husband was thrilled, saying it's no surprise to find it in Akasaka. The wine glass was a perfect match. The salt-grilled blackthroat seaperch was perfectly seasoned and cooked by professionals. It was delicious from head to tail, and I finished it all. It seems like a sister restaurant focusing on blackthroat seaperch has also opened nearby. The tempura soba noodles with two prawns, enoki mushrooms, and shiitake mushrooms had a luxurious and crispy batter. The 100% soba noodles were flat and had a wonderful aroma. The slightly uneven texture, indicating they were hand-made, added to the charm. The thick soba noodle soup was also delicious. My husband had the pork and scallion soba noodles, which were generously topped with pork and scallions. Soba Kappo Isshin 050-5570-9201 Tokyo, Minato-ku, Akasaka 2-6-22 Duo Scala Akasaka II

The soba was delicious! The tempura chikuwa was a great snack! The semi-private rooms were a nice touch! ⭐️5⭐️ I want to keep coming back. I love it so much that I don't want to tell anyone about it. ⭐️4⭐️ I would recommend this place if asked. ⭐️3⭐️ I might go again. ⭐️2⭐️ I'd prefer to try a different restaurant next time. ⭐️1⭐️ Personally, I wouldn't recommend it. Instagram @tokyo_gourmet_yokutaberuko. On my food blog, I only introduce restaurants that I rated 4 or 5 stars on Tabelog.

A soba kaiseki restaurant in Akasaka. This stylish restaurant offers a concept that evokes the Edo period tradition of enjoying sake (or non-alcoholic drinks) while eating, and finishing with soba. The menu includes traditional soba appetizers such as grilled miso, tamagoyaki, and tempura, as well as a wide variety of kaiseki dishes like sashimi, karaage, and ebi mayo. The seafood dishes, in particular, are highly recommended for their high-quality ingredients and delicious flavors. The soba menu features the classic seiro style, as well as unique options like duck nanban and pork curry soba. The restaurant is located a 2-3 minute walk from Akasaka Station or Tameike-Sanno Station, with a large white noren as a landmark. The interior offers a variety of seating options including counter, tables, semi-private, and fully private rooms. The reviewer visited with a party of 2 and opted for a semi-private room, which provided a cozy atmosphere. The food was diverse and delicious, with standout dishes including grilled nodoguro, sashimi platter, and tempura anago. The reviewer also enjoyed the refreshing mint lemon sour and fresh melon.

Recently, due to unavoidable circumstances, I have been frequenting Akasaka. I visited a highly rated restaurant in Akasaka that offers great soba and a variety of Japanese sake. It is conveniently located within walking distance from Tameike, Akasaka, and Akasaka-mitsuke. The interior is stylish with a mix of counter seating and private rooms. The private rooms have curtains for added privacy. - Barbecue of summer vegetables: The grilled summer vegetables were delicious and flavorful, including okra, eggplant, paprika, pumpkin, asparagus, and baby corn. The sauce made with balsamic vinegar was a perfect match for the summer vegetables. - Fresh fish tartare: Made with three types of fish, the tartare had a nice texture with the fish still retaining its shape. The miso and condiments complemented the fish well, enhancing its natural flavor. - Grilled nodoguro: The grilled blackthroat seaperch was perfectly seasoned and cooked, with a rich flavor and tender texture. Every part of the fish, including the skin and tail, was delicious. - Large prawn with mango mayo: A large prawn served with mango mayo, topped with a sprinkle of sansho pepper at the table. The combination of sweet mango and tangy mayo created a unique and delicious flavor. - Duck soba: The soba noodles were made with 100% buckwheat flour, slightly thicker and flat in shape. They had a good chewy texture, and the slightly sweet and rich dipping sauce paired perfectly with the duck. Overall, the experience was delightful, and I look forward to trying their extensive selection of sake on my next visit. Thank you for the wonderful meal!

I wanted to have a refreshing meal and drinks on my day off, so I made a reservation at "Isshin" in Akasaka. It was my first visit and I got a bit lost on the way to the restaurant, but I finally arrived at this stylish place and enjoyed a relaxing dinner. I ordered the tuna sashimi and assorted tempura, along with some drinks. The tuna sashimi had both lean meat and fatty toro, both delicious with the rich flavor of tuna. The toro's fat paired perfectly with the light soba noodles. The soba noodles were flat and had a subtle aroma, and were quite tasty even without dipping them in the soba sauce. The tempura included mushrooms and two shrimp, providing a satisfying amount without overpowering the soba. The prices were a bit high, as expected in Akasaka, but considering the calm atmosphere and quality of the food, it was a great dining experience.

I visited the restaurant for the first time after 9 PM. It was quite crowded even at this time. I started with a draft beer. Drinking sake at a soba restaurant is great. I like that many sake appetizers go well with sake. I had assorted tempura of Satsuma-age, fresh fish namero, and anago tempura. The group next to us was getting loud, so we were kindly moved to another table. Since there were two of us, we tasted different dishes while enjoying our sake. We tried Masuyama-ryu and Ura-Masuyama-ryu, Yuki no Chashucho, and Ouroku. Our stomachs were getting full, so we wanted to save room for the soba, so we had the soba restaurant's grilled miso as a sake snack. Finally, we had zaru soba. It was a bit pricey, but delicious, and it might be valuable as there are not many places open at this time.

Each type has a unique flavor, such as the rich taste of cheese, the spicy kick of pickled ginger, and the crispy texture of lotus root. - Sushi restaurant-style tamagoyaki (rolled omelette): A sweet and firm rolled omelette served with grated daikon radish and soy sauce. - Exquisite motsu-ni (simmered tripe): Motsu-ni with a rich and flavorful taste, featuring tender tripe and vegetables cooked to perfection.

Located about a 5-minute walk from Akasaka Mitsuke, "Soba Kappo Isshin" is more of a izakaya-style restaurant than a soba shop. They boast about their Jyuwari soba, but the atmosphere is more like an izakaya, so there is no real soba shop vibe. With a counter, tables, and semi-private rooms, the restaurant can accommodate a moderate number of people, and there were empty seats available when we visited. The staff provided pleasant service when we arrived earlier than expected, but it was strange to see the staff's personal belongings casually tossed in plain view of the guests. Moreover, they would come over to touch their belongings while we were there, which was a mystery. Does this restaurant not have employee lockers? For our first order, we had a sashimi platter for two, a ham-filled potato salad, a sesame tantan salad with Oyama chicken, and a spicy stir-fry with green chili peppers and scallops. We started with the potato salad, which was decent but lacked overall flavor balance, especially in terms of mayonnaise acidity and saltiness. The sashimi included sea bream, amberjack, squid, golden eye snapper, tuna, and one more that I can't remember. The sea bream was delicious. However, the squid had a slight fishy smell that was off-putting. The sesame tantan salad had crisp watercress, and the sweetness of the Oyama chicken was a delightful addition. The spicy dressing further enhanced the dish. The stir-fry with green chili peppers was more like a bell pepper stir-fry, with a lackluster seasoning. It was neither spicy nor did it have any green chili peppers, so I suggest renaming the dish. As for the soba, I had the seiro soba, while my companion had the ten-seiro soba. The soba noodles were machine-made and lacked the fragrance of buckwheat. The texture was too firm, resembling thick noodles rather than the type I prefer. The taste was also disappointing, with a lack of soba flour aroma and a gritty texture. It was a far cry from what I expected. Overall, this restaurant may be a good choice for those working nearby who want to casually drop by for izakaya-style dining when other places are fully booked. Thank you for the meal.

Soba kaiseki. The soba cha-hai was delicious, and overall the food was great, with the soba being particularly satisfying. I ended up ordering an extra steamed basket. The nodoguro (blackthroat seaperch) was available grilled and simmered, and the seasoning was perfect. It seems to get quite crowded, so reservations are a must. It's nice that they're open on Sundays too.

I went to Soba Maekazu Isshin, located right near Akasaka Station, for some soba and drinks. When I arrived around 6:30 pm on a weekday, the restaurant was almost full and had a lively atmosphere. I was seated at the counter, which had a warm wooden feel and plenty of space between seats, making it very comfortable. Despite being a soba specialty restaurant, they also had a great selection of Japanese side dishes and snacks. I started with a cold beer to quench my thirst. The Suntory Premium Malt was nicely chilled and the foam was delicious. I also tried the sushi restaurant-style Tamagoyaki soup, which was fluffy and moist, with a tasty grated radish on the side. The Ebi Mango Mayo dish had juicy prawns with a fruity mango sauce that was enhanced by a sprinkle of sansho pepper. I also enjoyed the crunchy Chikuwa Tempura with plenty of seaweed. For my next drink, I switched to a Highball, which was expertly made and refreshing with a lemon twist. They had a variety of Japanese sake, including the hard-to-find Shinsei series like No.6 and S-TYPE. I tried the Shinsei Amaneko, which had a balanced acidity and gas sensation that was very enjoyable. The price was reasonable at 1000 yen that day. I also ordered the spicy Menma and a sashimi platter with six types of fresh fish. The sake from Akita, called Yuki no Chaya, was smooth and complemented the sashimi well. The highlight was the fatty tuna, which was rich and flavorful. Finally, I had the Pork Curry Soba, which had a thick curry soup that coated the soba noodles nicely. My companion had the regular Soba, which they said tasted delicious and authentic due to being made from 100% buckwheat. We ended the meal with a sip of soba soup and left feeling satisfied after enjoying the soba and drinks in a stylish atmosphere. I would definitely consider revisiting this place if I'm in the area again.
