Why go
Soba Ulala is worth booking when the brief is specific: Japanese soba in a calmer Soho setting, not a flashy tasting-menu night. It makes the strongest case for repeat diners who want to vary the experience by season, leaning cooler and lighter in warm weather and warmer, broth-led in colder months.
About Soba Ulala
How to think about Soba Ulala
Soba Ulala is most useful when the table has a specific plan: Japanese soba in a calmer SoHo setting. It is a focused choice for diners who want soba to anchor the meal. That makes it especially well suited to repeat visits, since the experience can shift with the season.
In warmer weather, the appeal leans toward cooler, lighter preparations; in colder months, warmer, broth-led choices make more sense. The verified information here is not a full menu guide, so confirm current offerings directly when a particular preparation or dietary need matters. For a group looking for French seafood, a modern Korean tasting menu, a vegan French tasting menu, or a broader dining plan, another New York City restaurant will be a better match.
Planning the visit
Soba Ulala is in SoHo-Little Italy-Hudson Square at 73 Thompson St Front, New York, NY 10012. Listed service includes lunch Tuesday through Friday from 12–2:30 PM and dinner Tuesday through Saturday from 5:30–10 PM. It is closed Monday and Sunday.
The practical decision is straightforward: choose Soba Ulala when Japanese soba is the reason for the meal and its service windows fit the day. Lunch works for Tuesday through Friday plans, while dinner adds Saturday availability.
