About this place
Part of the pleasure of tempura soba is how the tempura and broth come together as you eat. One diner who ordered hot tempura soba at Tsuru Yui described enjoying the aroma of the dashi and savouring the tempura as it softened in the broth. The menu offers both soba and udon, including dishes topped with tempura, kakiage fritters and prawns. Choose a hot noodle dish for its dashi, or let the tempura take centre stage.
The rolled omelette ordered alongside the noodles was described as fluffy, with a gentle flavour and savoury notes of dashi. It makes a good addition to a noodle meal, and offers another way to enjoy that dashi flavour. Beyond noodles, the menu lists rice bowls such as tempura, kakiage and chicken-and-egg, as well as set meals. It is easy to choose between soba or udon and a rice dish according to your mood.
Lunch is served from 11:30 to 14:30, and the restaurant is closed on Thursdays. A hot, dashi-rich bowl of soba with rolled omelette makes a tempting lunch combination.
