01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Situated in a lane right by Oji Station, Fuji Soba is an unpretentious neighbourhood noodle counter suited for a quick bite between connections or at the end of the day. The ticket vending machine outside displays an extensive line-up, letting diners move smoothly from plain kake or mori soba to well-garnished bowls depending on the day's mood.
Fragrant Hot Broths and Chilled Mori Soba
Among the hot options, meat-topped Niku Fuji Soba or Udon and the ingredient-packed Tokusen Fuji Soba or Udon stand out for substance. Other popular toppings meant to soak into the broth include tentama soba, pairing a crisp vegetable tempura fritter with a soft egg, and nostalgic croquette soba. Those after a clean, cooling slurp can opt for mori soba, which pairs firmly chilled noodles with a rich, dark dipping tsuyu.
Katsudon and Curry Sets, Plus Morning Soba
When hunger calls for something heartier, Fuji Soba provides satisfying combinations such as the katsudon set, served alongside hot kake or cold mori soba, as well as comforting curry rice sets. In the earlier hours, an affordable morning soba option arrives with an onsen tamago, allowing diners to select between soba or udon, tanuki or kitsune toppings, and hot or cold preparation.
The interior offers seated counter spaces where solo diners can eat comfortably and without hesitation. Aside from a brief closure between late night and dawn, the shop operates virtually around the clock, functioning as a dependable everyday stop from an early morning breakfast to a late-night final bowl.
