Just had a proper lunch here by Nagano Station. The food was solid &ndash; a real step up from grabbing a quick bite. Service was fast, which was nice as I was between trains. Portion was decent too.

The cold soba was just right for the weather! Noodles were thin and slippery, perfect for sharing a few bowls with friends while chatting. The dipping sauce was a bit salty for my taste, but still good.

Loved the circular counter seating, it felt so relaxed. The interior is clean and stylish, which I always appreciate. Perfect for a quiet meal where you can really focus on the food and ingredients.

The pork ramen broth was so delicate, with a really complex flavor. Just 800 yen. That&#39;s a nice surprise in this area.

The communal table was a nice touch for a solo diner like me. Had the tororo soba, and its unique texture went surprisingly well with a chilled glass of local sake. The soba ball dessert was a nice finish. A relaxed, authentic spot.

The curry rice here is something else! It&#39;s got this tangy, spicy kick that&#39;s totally different from the usual Japanese curry. Went perfectly with their seasonal chestnut cake. 🍛

The tempura set lunch was light and not greasy. The salt and daikon really complemented the fresh ingredients.

The walnut ohagi was a nice surprise, warm and comforting. Pairs well with a simple cup of green tea.

Parking&#39;s easy here, which is a plus. The portions are huge, so it&#39;s definitely a sharing kind of place. We ordered the fried chicken and a couple of sides, and still had leftovers to take home. Good for a casual meal with friends.

The staff were really polite and cheerful. Even when we had to wait a bit, they handled everything efficiently and kept things pleasant.

Grilled chicken set was good, the drink&#39;s included. But the rice portion was huge, honestly too much for me. Couldn&#39;t finish it.

Had to wait in line for about 30 mins for dinner, but it moved fast. The vibe was perfect for catching up with friends&mdash;everyone was chatting and laughing. It was a bit loud, but honestly that just made it more fun for our group.

Cozy family-run spot, the elderly couple is very kind. Had the daily set lunch, solid home-cooked taste. A bit slow during the noon rush, but fine if you&#39;re not in a hurry. Good for a quiet meal.

The fish spaghetti with salt was really good. Menu changes often, lots of specials on the board.

The cold dip ramen is the thing here. The noodles have a firm, chewy bite that&#39;s just right. The broth is chilled and savory. You do have to wait a bit for it, maybe 20 minutes. But it&#39;s all about that noodle texture.

The tororo soba was a very generous portion, and the broth came in a nice carafe. The seats were comfortable and the service was quiet and efficient, which I really appreciated. Made for a very relaxed meal.

Shoes off at the table. That detail made it feel real. Just like my last trip to Kyoto. The grilled mackerel was spot on. A bit pricey, but worth it for the vibe.
