| - Disgusting is how I would describe my experience with this place. Coming here for the first time, my first impression of them was their bags of garbage lining the hallway leading up to their front entrance.
Against my better judgment, I went in and was seated at a table. But soon after, the waitress came over and asked if I could move to another table so she could combine my table with 2 others for an incoming group. OK no problem. I moved. The group came in and sat down at the table, looked at the menu for a few minutes, then left the cafe.
I had gone to Soban to eat and work, as were many of the other customers who were there with their laptops and books. Most of Soban's tables are very small, however, and a number of the other customers who were working either had to be at a larger table or if they were on the small ones, had to fit their work and food on 2 tables. I was at a small table and when my food came, I pulled up 1 of the 3 now empty adjacent small tables to fit my food. Soon after the waitress came by and asked if I could move all of my stuff onto 1 table. OK . . . except that she did not ask the other people taking up multiple tables to do the same thing.
Speaking of which, they say they have WiFi but not really - each time I tried to connect to their WiFi, it said "Not Connected". Customers at other tables were having the same issue and all they were told was to keep trying because it's hard to connect.
After I had eaten, the waitress came by again and told me that, apparently, there is a "2 hour limit" rule at that cafe. That's funny because I'm pretty sure many of the customers there had been at the cafe much longer than I had (they were there when I arrived and still there when the waitress came over to inform me about this new rule) and this 2-hour "rule" was not posted anywhere in the cafe, not even in their menus (which menus did, however, state that there is a minimum charge per person rule). So basically they made up a rule to boot customers out once they had ordered their food. In this case, the cafe was not even full - there were available tables beside me that they could have offered to new incoming customers. The way that this place treats its customers is unbelievable.
Would never come here again and recommend that people stay away from this place. In addition to the horrible customer treatment, the food was mediocre and for those who are lactose intolerant or who otherwise cannot drink much milk, they do not have non-dairy options for their drinks. There are so many other similar cafes in that area with better food, better service, (working WiFi!), and don't mistreat their customers.
