おり Tián - 南会津町

Both the soba and tempura were excellent. My wife, who doesn't like tempura, only ate half, so I ended up taking some of her soba.

The menu items are about 1000 yen each. I had the mixed tempura and it was delicious. It seems like they only accept cash. It was a lifesaver that they were open while other nearby restaurants were closed.

The restaurant only has 3 seats, and they do not allow sharing seats. There may be a wait for solo customers, even with a reservation. There is parking space for about 4 cars. The large serving of tempura soba costs 1700 yen and is just the right amount. The soba noodles are thick, firm, and short, with a white color and a mix of crunchy bits that provide excellent texture. There is a hint of sweetness that makes it delicious. The tempura, served with coarse salt, is plentiful but slightly lacking in flavor. The dipping sauce is average, but I would definitely recommend trying the famous Tochigi specialty dipping sauce called "chitake-tsuke-jiru" if available.

老夫婦がやっている小さな蕎麦屋さんですがとても美味しいです。 昨年は来れませんでしたがオーナー夫婦健在で蕎麦の味も変わらずで嬉しかったです。身体に気を付けてまだまだ頑張って下さい！ 南会津に来た時は必ず寄らさせていただきます。今回は初めての天ぷらせいろ！油切れも良く家庭的な天婦羅で美味しいです。
