Good and tasty fast food.

Used this place solo for Saturday lunch. Located in Suita City south of Kishibe Station within walking distance, it's a station-soba-style diner. The interior has only about 13 counter seats, run by what appeared to be an elderly married couple. In addition to udon and soba, the menu featured rice bowls. As for pricing, being close to nearby universities, it is very reasonably priced. The dashi broth for the udon has a slightly sweet aftertaste, with an overall light flavor profile. Note that payment seems to be cash only. With a high turnover rate, you can get in without much of a wait even if it's full.

I couldn't visit for a while due to a job transfer, but I've been coming here for about 5 years now. My kid also went to a high school nearby, so both parent and child have been indebted to this place. It's very cheap and delicious. Usually I get just a rice bowl, or udon plus kayaku gohan (seasoned rice). Rice bowls are 450–500 yen, udon starts at 300 yen, and even adding kayaku gohan keeps it cheap. Quite a few customers order a bowl and an udon together, but even then it's around 1,000 yen so you can eat your fill. It's operated by an elderly man and woman. Lately I've been concerned about the old gentleman's memory, as he often forgets or mixes up orders. I find myself thinking they should write order slips, or perhaps have the customers write them and hand them over. I really don't want a place like this to disappear, so customers, please show as much understanding and cooperation as you can.

A diner-style udon shop near Kishibe Station! I've been curious every time I passed by here~! I went by car. Parked at a nearby coin parking lot and it was just a short walk. It's right near that famous Ramen Kudo, so it's easy to find! This udon place also has a yellow noren curtain, so it stands out! In short, it's an old-school spot with only counter seating where a woman alone might feel a bit hesitant to enter... but I recommend just going in without worrying! It's shockingly cheap. Kake udon is just 300 yen... and it's a full standard-sized portion! The noodles are thick and soft, reminding me of the udon my grandma used to make. In the middle of the counter, grandma and grandpa prepare each dish with great care. I had the Tamagodon (egg bowl); they cooked the egg to exquisite tenderness in a small pan and swiftly poured it over the rice. It even came with a small side of udon broth. Ev-even pickles included!! All this for around 400 yen, if I recall... Incredible. I want to come every single day. I truly wish they made way more profit ( ; ; ) It's so cheap, so generous, so tasty, and grandpa meticulously cuts and preps the beef and everything. When we arrived around 1:30 PM, the beef udon was sold out and the rice was on its last legs. The students who came two parties after us were turned away by grandma saying there was no more rice. I really wished they could have had their fill! Truly a place I want to visit every day. I can't help but pray that grandpa, grandma, and this shop will enjoy even greater happiness—it was such a warm, old-school gem that is hard to come by nowadays. Two Tamagodon and one Kitsune Udon for 1,300 yen... I'd happily pay double.

Counter seating only, and water is self-service. Once seated, you order verbally with the owner. I ordered the beef udon, and it was served in less than 5 minutes. The udon is on the soft side without much chewiness. The soup is packed with dashi flavor and delicious.
