Meiji Seimen Costa Mesa Reviews
100% authentic Japanese Soba! Nowhere else like this near here. The food brings back the best memories- it’s truly exceptional! Super casual and chill. You will feel like you stepped out of the OC in the best way.
The food here is good and moderately priced but make sure you come here before it opens since you will have e to wait super long.
First time here. I knew it was going to be good where there were people waiting in line outside at lunch on a Saturday. Every single thing we ordered was so gratifying and delicious. I felt like I was in Japan. It was wonderful and I highly recommend. Just a charming place!
