Hello! I'm Hakata Aya, a writer who shares the hottest information about Fukuoka.
A specialty 100% buckwheat soba restaurant, Nihon Soba Chojuro, has opened in the new gourmet street "CANAL Gourmet Street KUOHKA" that has opened in Canal City Hakata! A must-see for soba lovers and gourmets alike, this is a noteworthy restaurant where you can taste freshly ground soba noodles.
Soba dining restaurant "Nihon Soba Chojuro" opens in Canal City Hakata "KUOHKA" (Sumiyoshi, Hakata Ward, Fukuoka City)
On July 18, 2025, Nihon Soba Sumijuro opened on the basement floor of the Grand Building, which houses the Grand Hyatt Fukuoka in Canal City Hakata.

Be enchanted by the aroma of stone-ground noodles♪ Enjoy freshly made 100% buckwheat soba every day
The soba noodles at Sumijuro are made from 100% buckwheat flour without any binders.
The buckwheat flour is ground in a stone mill in the store, giving it a rich aroma! Another distinctive feature is that the craftsmen adjust the amount of water and thickness according to the conditions of the day, finishing it with meticulous technique.

This is summer soba! Our specialty "Sansho Soba" with a refreshing tangy taste of Japanese pepper
The dish I would like to recommend for summer is the "Sansho Soba" (1,430 yen). This is what I had this time.

There is plenty of minced meat on top.

The soba noodles are easy to swallow and can be eaten easily even if you don't have much of an appetite. The umami flavor and the refreshing aroma of Japanese pepper are a perfect match! They are light yet rich in flavor, making them an excellent dish.

The spiciness of the Japanese pepper is mild, but if you add some Japanese pepper oil halfway through to change the flavor, it will have an even more punchy taste.

By the way, the "Special Large Shrimp Tempura Soba" (2,860 yen) which comes with large shrimp tempura with head on is also popular.

A wide selection of alcoholic drinks! Enjoy a casual soba bar drinking experience with Japanese small-plate dishes
Sumijuro also serves small dishes that go perfectly with sake. They also have a wide selection of alcoholic drinks, so you can enjoy a modern take on the traditional Edo culture of enjoying a drink while savoring your meal at a soba restaurant.
"Fried chicken with Japanese pepper" (1,100 yen) is a dish that combines juicy fried chicken with the aroma and numbing taste of Japanese pepper in an exquisite way.

There is also "Yaki-miso" (550 yen), which is made by kneading shiso leaves, green onions, and buckwheat seeds into Saikyo miso and then grilling it.
