Honmura An Shall I go?

My friend went and said it was disappointing. However, I don't fully trust his views on food. So I come to my friends here! Let me know all. Thanks Jason

    It has indeed just closed and, as such, you go should to Soba Koh in the east village for your soba fix. Soba-ya is also pretty good, but I would put Soba Koh at the top. Delicious cold soba with tempura.

      You're a day too late...reportedly, it's closed for good yesterday.

        I really love Honmura An. The food is light, but very satisfying and the staff has always been friendly and efficient. If you end up going, I recommend the Soba Gaki (they describe it as a japanese "gnocchi"), Tori Dango (fried chicken meatballs) as appetizers. They also have a really good omelet appetizer, but i forget what its called.I prefer the Soba entrees. Oh, and the green tea ice cream is really tasty, too.
