About
Soba Noodle Azuma is a beloved Japanese noodle house on Fort Lee's main street, serving as the New Jersey outpost of the same Japanese ownership behind the Manhattan Azuma location. The kitchen specializes in buckwheat soba and udon, offering diners the choice of hot or cold preparations paired with tempura, katsu curry, or sashimi sets. Guests can order 100g, 200g, or 300g of noodles at the same price, making it exceptional value by any measure. The BYOB policy, fresh ingredients, and consistently warm service have earned it a devoted local following and rave reviews from New York City visitors willing to cross the bridge. Sister restaurant Ramen Azuma operates nearby.
