Otafuku@Gardena ★★★

Returning for Sudachi Soba. This Seasonal Summer Limited Dish is ending sometime in September. Signature Seiro White Soba uses 70% polished buckwheat & 30% flour. Amazing Soba. Came back to try the Ginnan Nutsm which was salted & tasty with a bit of bitterness. Because the kitchen is open, it can feel a bit smokey/ oily in the seating area. Call-in for reservations as well as reserve Sudachi for the summer.

Cold Signature Seiro Soba $14 + Sudachi (Summer Limited Availability) $15

Roasted Ginnan Nuts $11

Grilled Tebasaki $6.50

Cold Signature Seiro Soba $14 + Tororo $4

Only available once a year every summer in July/August. Signature Seiro White Soba uses 70% polished buckwheat & 30% flour. Amazing Soba. Udon is ok. Various Doburi available. Because the kitchen is open, it can feel a bit smokey/ oily in the seating area. Call-in for reservations as well as reserve Sudachi for the summer. Will need to come back to try other dishes.
