Tokyo Dosanjin

With its downstairs entrance, this soba restaurant is a real hidden treasure. Once you’ve descended the stairs, you’ll find yourself in an unexpectedly spacious restaurant, with seats overlooking the garden. A lot of affection has gone into this restaurant, right down to the bowls, which are handmade by the owner. If you’re visiting during the summer, you have to order the seasonal cold sudachi soba—a dish of buckwheat noodles covered in slices of Japanese citrus fruit, which is refreshing just to look at, let alone eat!
