Ajiki-do Menu


For a simple yet delicious meal you cannot do better than with a visit to Ajiki-do in Ayabe City.

Located in a traditional Japanese home roughly a 20-minute drive from Ayabe Station, Ajiki-do has been serving incredibly tasty soba since opening in 2015.

Hidden in a small home in a small neighborhood, Ajiki-do is a true hidden gem.

The staff are very friendly and will make you feel like you are visiting their home instead of a shop.


Ajiki-do Indoor Seating


All handmade soba noodles are made from scratch.

The menu includes all the regular soba options you can find at other soba restaurants as well as a rotating menu featuring seasonal toppings.


Ajiki-do Chicken Soba


When I visited the duck season (my favorite) was just about to begin.

Instead I had the chicken soba which was fantastic.

Since moving to Japan it was one of my best soba meals ever.

As I side order I shared a large Japanese omelet and a side order of roasted duck with my friend.

Both were very good.


Ajiki-do Side Menu


Ajiki-do can get very busy so reservations are recommended especially on weekends and national holidays.

Aijiki-do has a few low Japanese tables inside as well as a small picnic-bench style seating outside.
