Handmade soba spot

Kurata, a soba kappo restaurant operated by chef-owner Masaki Kurata, is known for its handmade soba made from daily-milled buckwheat flour. Situated a short walk from Musashi-Koyama Station, the intimate space combines izakaya-style dining with kaiseki-influenced dishes, perfect for savoring alongside seasonal sake selections. The non-smoking atmosphere and English menu make it accessible to both locals and visitors, with a counter-centric layout that highlights chef interaction and the careful preparation of each dish.
