I absolutely loved the experience, the food was perfect and quite cheap. Furthermore the hospitality was incredible and the ambience + view was serene. If you are going to Oku-Tama, this place is a MUST visit.

I was shocked in a good way. The food is perfect the people is so nice and humble words cant explain how good this place was. MUST VISIT!

lovely place

In March 2026, while driving around Okutama toward a roadside station, I stopped here for a drive-in meal. The heater was on, but the place has glass walls, so it was just as freezing as outside! Still, the food was delicious. The zaru soba came on a small tray, but the handmade noodles were tasty. The sobayu had gone cold by the time I wanted it, which was a little disappointing. It might be good to say when ordering, “Could I have the sobayu once I've finished my zaru soba?” If you're heading to the roadside station farther ahead, its food is surprisingly pricey, so I'd recommend having a light lunch here first; you'll feel more satisfied. The only toilet is an outdoor pit toilet, so you're definitely better off using the clean toilets at the roadside station about 10 minutes from here( *´ω`* ) Thank you for the meal, Yakyutei! I'll be back.

Soba shop 01004　2026/4 Parking is fine either next door or across the road. I had katsudon ¥800★★★★* and ramen ¥500★★. Menu photos weren't allowed, so I won't post one, but I don't think it differs much from what's currently visible. For ¥800, the katsudon has a good balance of portion size and flavor. I debated having soba or ramen as another dish, but the ¥500 price caught my eye, so I chose ramen. Hmm, apart from the price, it wasn't really to my taste (personal opinion). Since it's a soba shop, I would've liked to try the soba too. There is an old toilet, but I don't recommend it.
