We came here because of the reviews. Not a surprise, very good. We ordered most types of udon here & likes the beef the best, both regular & cold. Miso cream is good, too, if you like Mac & cheese type of creamy food.

Amazing udon! Will definitely return! Delicious & well cooked. The coffee was also incredible -- equally as good as any coffee shop nearby, if not better.

I recommend the miso cream udon & beef udon.

Buonissimo! Buonissimo! Buonissimo! L'unica pecca è che c'è una sola opzione vegetariana nei DON e una sola negli Onigiri. Provate entrambe ed entrambe molto buone. Il patio è sulla strada ma non era una serata particolarmente trafficata. Se cercate una cena tranquilla senza impegno dove volete mangiare qualcosa di confortevole questo è il posto giusto

The service is slow. Knowing that lunch time is always busy you need to speed up.
Udon was ok but nothing special.

I ordered a gyudon, but received beef udon with the toppings seemingly transferred onto a bowl of rice after. Unfortunately, there was no sauce at all. When I asked if they could add sweet soy sauce, I was told only spicy or regular soy sauce was available. The portion of beef was also quite small, making the dish feel very dry overall. One point for healthiness, though!

Charming little noodle shop. Food was really good, especially the udon noodles. Perfect chew. Everything was very tasty, but I have had broth with deeper, more 3 dimensional richness.

Food looks good but we didnt get to try it, we waited 20 minutes in line during lunch & when we finally ordered they told us it would take 30min, they should have told us that before waiting, we just walked out…the employees also looked really confused with their orders to different customers…

Je me suis arrêter pour un dîner. J'ai pris un Udon boeuf & un thé glacé fraise lichi. Le repas fut excellent & avec un bon service. Je recommande cette endroit sympathique.
