good food at a good price. some dishes cost up to half in relation to other restaurants. The menu consists of a machine that, although it has the option in English, only translates certain things! So if you don't speak Japanese it can be difficult.

This was the worst experience I’ve had in Tokyo. I had visited this restaurant once before and recommended it to my family. However, when one of my elderly family members struggled to use the ordering machine, an older staff member came over and kicked him out without any explanation. There was no line, no delay, and we didn’t disturb anyone. I was shocked by how we were treated. If this is how they handle older or foreign customers, I can only describe it as discriminatory and unacceptable.

typically fast noodles shop

Irori-an Kiraku Komagome is a station soba shop inside the north exit ticket gates of JR Komagome Station, handy for when you want a quick bite🚉 On weekdays it's open from 7am to 10pm, with 22 seats. It's described as a shop centered on fresh soba and homemade kakiage. The red sign and noren curtain at the storefront catch the eye, so it's easy to spot even inside the gates. The soba in the photo has a darker broth, thin soba, green onions on top, and a large kakiage in the center. The batter looks nicely crisp and upright, a bowl where the contrast between the part slightly soaked in broth and the crunchy top really comes through🍜 I think it's an easy pick in Komagome when you want to quickly grab ekinaka food, soba, udon, lunch, or breakfast. Prices are mostly under 1,000 yen, and there's a notice that transit IC e-money is accepted, so it's easy to stop by during your commute or between transfers. Rather than a place to linger, it suited times when you want to eat hot soba or kakiage soba quickly inside the gates🙂 🌟Overall rating: ★3.5 / 5.0

At 'Irori-an Kiraku Komagome' inside the ticket gates of Komagome Station, I ordered the seasonal limited item 'Aomori Scallop Isobe Kakiage Soba.' The kakiage made with Aomori scallops is great. The umami of the scallops, the sweetness of the onion, and the aroma of aonori fill your mouth. I finished every bit. Thanks for the meal. Soba eaten at the station really is delicious~.
