" The soba wasn't as good as I hoped, but the ambiance is lovely. My friends had the sushi rolls, and they raved about them, so maybe sticking to those is the better option here. Overall, a pleasant experience, just need to manage expectations on the soba. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had high hopes for my visit but left slightly disappointed. The decor was nice, and the service polite, but my soba left much to be desired. The taste wasn't bad, but it wasn't memorable either. I might return, but under different circumstances. " (*Curated Review*)

" I cannot say enough good things about Sugidama! The atmosphere was buzzing with excitement, and the service was incredibly friendly. My pork belly yakitori was delicious, and I loved the homemade soba. I felt transported back to Japan with every bite I took. A fantastic dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve tried many places in Boston for soba, but Sugidama stands out. The variety is impressive, and everything is freshly made. My duck cold soba had great flavor, but some of the sushi dishes didn’t match that same quality. I’ll stick with the soba next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love the vibe at Sugidama! The decor gives a really cozy feel, perfect for a casual dinner. The staff were polite and attentive. The yakitori was perfectly cooked, and I am still dreaming about the clam miso soup. If you're looking for authentic Japanese food, you can't go wrong here. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Sugidama was not what I had hoped for. While the ambiance was inviting and the service friendly, the food unfortunately didn’t live up to expectation. The soba was fine but not especially flavorful. It felt a bit overpriced for what I received. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has some fantastic soba. I ordered it hot with shrimp tempura, and it was absolutely delicious. The ambiance was lovely, and I appreciated that the restaurant felt clean and well-maintained. I would suggest making a reservation, as it gets crowded quickly. " (*Curated Review*)
