Ordered the tempura soba and it was great! Soup and soba were tasty (that's a given) but wasn't expecting the tempura to be just as good! Crispy batter and fresh prawns. Nth can beat that combination!

this place is amazing. order the cold udon with chicken tempura and the hot udon with shrimp tempura. the tempura is the best i’ve ever had, ever. order one hot and one cold, as it’s very different!

Obsessed with the hot soy butter pepper udon with (or without) an egg yolk and a side order of shrimp or chicken tempura. I always go out of my way to come here for udon.

try both a hot and cold udon, which have a totally different texture. We loved the butter pepper hot udon and the cold beef udon with radish and egg. Chicken tempura is great too.

Brilliant noodles. The black pepper and egg was very tasty. Chicken tempura was good too.

Excellent udon experience... since then, we have never found any other places like this one. The beef was so fresh, the broth was a delish and the noodles were homemade, what else?

How do I even begin. This was a glorious experience. Udon in hot broth with delicious beef and tempura bamboo. It was UNBELIEVABLE. You must try it. 💗. A nice cup of sake for after!

Happened upon this place after walking back from Yoyogi Park. The 40-minute wait was well worth it. Very small, but very friendly ppl. Best Udon.

Cold udon is the way to go, if you want to experience chewy freshly made udon. The tempura is also perfectly fried, cooked just right and batter is light and not greasy. Expect some bit of lineup.

I was hesitant at first, but decided to try the untraditional “carbonara” udon. Turned out to be a great decision! It’s creamy and salty with perfectly textured udon noodles and tempura pork. 👍

One of the best udon in Tokyo. Cheap and yummy! They also provide English menu. Personally think udon with soup is better; but the one without it is also good.

If you want to fully enjoy the mouthfeel of Udon noodle, Zaru-udon(cold udon) will be the best choice. Maru-ten(deep fried fish cake) is also amazing.
Arnold MeziniJune 14, 2018
Excellent udon (handmade) and friendly service. While not traditional, the Parmesan udon is delicious and a standout among the also delicious traditional choices.
MariNovember 30, 2019
Great udon and tempura. Generally a line.
Grace NgFebruary 5, 2017
Great udon, sat at the bar and had a full view of the cook making tempura. Entire restaurant Seats only 10 in total so no large groips
Michelle ConnochieSeptember 24, 2016
Very tasty udon. Usually a queue to get in but definitely worth the wait!
Vincent TanApril 10, 2016
Butter pepper udon with soft boiled egg is nothing short of amazing.
Lucy PerrySeptember 23, 2017
This was absolutely amazing. Didn't know udon could taste so good. Queued for a while but 100% worth waiting for
Doris HuJanuary 8, 2015
The udon was so good. Get it with the egg and beef. Delicious! Prepare to order as you wait on line. Thankfully the menu has pictures! Use Google Translate for the rest.
joahnnaSeptember 27, 2018
Butter + pepper + egg (beef optional) is sooooo good! Def worth the wait.
Agatha YuMay 1, 2015
They make their udon in the tiny store. Obviously it is brilliant but what blew me away was the tempura! 完璧〜〜
Duehie LeeSeptember 22, 2015
Lovely udon. Nice noodle and nice soup. Try "kake udon" with some tempura. Of course, don't forget a glass of draft beer!!!
AndyOctober 15, 2017
the black pepper, butter and egg udon plus a side of chicken udon will blow your mind, it’s so good
CJMarch 22, 2023
The line is misleading. They will sell out and close early (~180 parties). Be sure to get a QR code first. You’ll then have to queue again. Go w/#21 udon (upgrade). No regrets!
Bjorn Van HoeymissenApril 29, 2016
Fantastic fresh udon noodles. The black pepper and egg combination might seem sober but is incredibly tasty. My favourite.
Edward ChanMay 20, 2014
Really delicious homemade udon noodles. The tempera was also phenomenal. Very small place though, fits only 10 ppl but worth the wait! Very friendly staff that spoke Engrish!
Namhee ChoOctober 10, 2014
You can watch the owner making udon noodles on the spot. Tempura shouldn't be missed!
Fabio De DonnoJuly 27, 2015
Love this place. Had to come back twice. Great noodles made on the premises and the tempura is just GREAT and can be ordered separately. English menu available.
Justin TsuiSeptember 8, 2016
Hot or cold, the udon is amazing! Incredible chewiness that sets it apart from the rest. Not to mention the bumpin' edm mix playing over the speakers 🔊💗🍜
Jason YapNovember 25, 2014
Hand made udon on the spot.... Small shop but very authentic ... Must try...
Angela LiuMarch 4, 2019
Excellent udon. This place is tiny so go early to avoid queueing
Grry GhOctober 4, 2018
This is super good!!! Definitely worth the queue. Got to try the cold udon, the texture is very chewy.
Vivian LeOctober 17, 2014
Handmade udon noodles were yummy and the tempura was the best I've ever had. I was a noob and didn't know I was supposed to dip the noodles
Petr Korolev skywinderNovember 5, 2019
It’s good and worth for their money but I think it’s overrated because it’s not super special for number one udon in town. And here is the huge lines because of this I think.
Anastasia BelozertsevaSeptember 30, 2019
Small unassuming spot, but the udon is the best I have ever had. Definitely worth the wait!
Luke AveryMay 12, 2017
Fantastic udon. The place is tiny (only seats 10) so you may have to wait but it's absolutely worth it.
Lien TranJune 11, 2016
Great fresh handmade udon noodles & tempura. Small shop with a line at lunch time, but the staff and diners are pretty efficient. Recommend!

Menu has English. Try the chicken tempura. So good!!!
Ashley RoseDecember 27, 2019
Yummmm. Thick delicious udon. Egg with pepper add beef was so tasty. Be ready to order while in the queue. Cash only.
Oscar KneppersMarch 18, 2019
Ultimate Udon in the smallest possible place (16 seats max) but definitely worth the long line...
Pamela CastilloSeptember 12, 2015
Unbelievable Udon. They dont pre-cut the noodles, all are made to order. Great, friendly service.
Jeffrey ZhaoMarch 22, 2016
Spectacular udon and even better tempura. I recommend the cold udon with tempura chicken
AlexNovember 29, 2015
amazing udon that's handmade and cooked to order. noodles are chewy, fresh, and delicious.
Lester ChanJanuary 6, 2018
Best udon I ate.
Tabitha JohnsonAugust 14, 2016
Both the tempura and udon here are top notch. Menus in several different languages. Small space best for smaller groups.
JKSeptember 10, 2019
When there is a queue, for the purpose not to block others there is a break between the line so please ask where the end of the queue is before cutting the line. Normally at least half an hour wait
Kike IsidoroApril 22, 2016
The Beef Bukkake Udon is one of the best things I have ever tried in my life :)
ChrisJune 2, 2016
Best icon I've ever had; hot beef udon is like brisket with udon and delicious fried fish, highly recommended
Yuwono OngkowijoyoDecember 13, 2014
The best udon ever..... Try the udon with beef yakiniku... Miss that already know
BeomWook HanAugust 26, 2019
Freshly cut udon noodle with tasty sauce. Small restaurant, but worth to wait.
