Yakuan in Katsuragi City is a quaint soba restaurant that was renovated from an old house that was built over 150 years ago. The interior retains the atmosphere of an old house, with high ceilings with exposed beams and a dirt floor, allowing you to dine in a relaxed atmosphere. As the name of the restaurant suggests, its concept is "soba is medicine," and it is popular with health-conscious tourists.

The soba served is handmade using carefully selected buckwheat flour. The chewy soba is fragrant and goes perfectly with the soup.
They also offer a rare menu item called soba sashimi.
