Authentic, tiny Japanese spot by Naschmarkt serving simple, well-executed noodles, small plates, and sushi with warm hospitality; great quality, limited seating, cash-focused and slightly pricey for the simplicity.
Hiroko-san delivers exceptional food quality with authentic, deeply flavored broths and careful execution that earns solid A-grade standing. Warm, attentive service and a genuine neighborhood character enhance the experience, though the very tight seating and limited capacity create real operational friction that prevents grade A territory. This is honest, unpretentious Japanese comfort food executed with care—worth seeking if you value authenticity over convenience.
One caveat: Seating is extremely limited; arrive early for lunch or expect to wait
