I-naba Honolulu - Fort Shafter

The soba was authentic and delicious, typical of Japan. The staff was friendly and the tempura was delicious. The sesame soba was especially delicious. Perfect for hot days.

Best soba in Honolulu! If you’re searching around for soba restaurants, do yourself a favour and just go here. This was my second favourite meal during our entire honeymoon trip in Hawaii and we came back on the last day. I got the Tempura Soba Set A (Zaru style) and added Mentaiko. The soba is handmade so it’s fresh and bouncy and the tempura is fried perfectly. We also highly recommend getting the Miso Gindara- it was so buttery and flavorful!At the end of the meal, they will give you a pot of water that they used to boil the soba noodles. Pour a bit of it in your leftover soba dipping sauce and drink it for a soothing and clean tasting drink to end the meal.This place is popular so if you’re going during dinner, there will probably be a line up. Just write your name down on the board at the entrance and they will call you when your table is ready. There are two seats inside at the waiting area and a few seats outside the restaurant for you to sit while waiting.Highly recommend this place. Food is great and the ladies are so cute!Don’t forget, it’s BYOB. They just charge $1 for each cup.

It's definitely a good buckwheat soba restaurant. The fries are served with clean oil and are really delicious.

Best cold soba on the island. Great service and high quality food served here. It gets packed during lunch time.

Best soba you can get outside of Japan, no contest! Tempura is really good too!
