http://www.london-eating.co.uk/23541.htm Soba (Soho Street) Readers Reviews - London Eating en-gb Copyright: (C) London Eating Gosh, where do I begin? Hmm, Ok, first of all, there was another Soba restaurant somewhere on Poland Street if memory serves, with much kinder people. Well, all but one, but she tried really hard to treat the customers as humans. Anyway, that place got shut down and replaced by some cheapo, worthless sandwich bar (because we don't have enough ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2655.htm Went to Soho Street branch to try out the new menu (before i use to go to Poland Street branch) meal was ok, but i still liked poland street place, especially the £4.50 deal, which they don't do anymore. The manager at the old place always made me feel at home, until one day my girl friend suggested lets go to soba , so we went to try out ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2655.htm I have to concur with 'Dave' on this place. The food was okay/ average but the most striking thing about the whole experience was the appalling attitude from the waitress - a.k.a Genghis Khan the warlord. It's one thing just being rude and arsey but this girl took it to a whole new aggressive level! Dont worry, love, I wont ask for extra ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2655.htm It's worth going to a place this bad to remind yourself how good most places are now, Appallingly rude staff, left the waitress a 5p tip and thats only because I didn't have a 1p. And the food!!, well it was food and thats the best I can say about it, it sustained me and the Chef had skillfully managed not to add any of that pesky flavour. ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2655.htm I ordered just chicken yakisoba and that cost me £6, I think, and there was no service charge. The portion was really large, and it tasted good, but for me it was too low in fat, and not satisfying, even though filling. Just needed more fat, the rest was ok, the vegetables and the chicken. Place was ok and waitress was ok also. I also wish ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2655.htm Dear oh dear, what a dreadful experience. I used to like Soba but not any more. Awful, awful food, really dreadful. I can't actually believe I, a) ate as much of it as I did and b) that I agreed to even pay for it. Starter of squid was excellent but the 2 mains were appalling. Had no flavour other than salt. I was amazed at how bad it ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2655.htm After reading the reviews on this page we decided to go for a work lunch. We found it to be an extremely average restaurant, possibly even below average. I had seafood yaki soba which came accompanied by 2 crab sticks. The ingredients were extremely dry and I found their freshness questionable. The service was ok but I have to say for around ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2655.htm Soba is an inviting and warm restaurant boasting of delicious food and quiet atmosphere. The menu is succint, allowing you to make up your mind in a short space of time. Their prices are reasonable and valuable for what it offers. I enjoyed my lunch with a friend so much that I am taking a group of friends there to celebrate my birthday with me. http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2655.htm I loved it in Soba. Delicious food and pleasant atmosphere created a wonderful lunch break for me and my friend! Thankee for that! :) http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2655.htm In short, came with reasonably low expectations and still came away disappointed. Decor was decent enough, atmosphere is as good as you can expect in a canteen-style dining room. You are warned in the menu that dishes are served as cooked, so don't expect your courses to arrive at the same time. Biggest let-down was the food itself. When I ... http://www.london-eating.co.uk/2655.htm
