A very popular udon restaurant for the locals, queuing even on a weekday shortly after the restaurant opened. The udon was nice and quite a lot for a lunch set - in fact it was too much for me that I barely able to finish it. But I found the soup broth too plain and lack of flavour. The tempura was a bit disappointing as the crust was very dry and flavourless, so it wasn’t a particularly enjoyable meal when I tried to finish it up.

It’s been 7 years since last visit. Very popular Sanuki Udon shop in Tokyo, very reasonable! It was worth waiting for 40 mins!!

It was a good quality udon place. Perhaps the best udon restaurant in Kita area. There are variety of choices, with seasonal options. I ordered vegetable tempura udon. The soup had a rich umami flavour with ginger topping served separately. Fried vegetables seemed very fresh, and it wasn’t too oily. I also strongly recommend oden menu as well. Once you bite the oden, you can feel the flavour spreading i your mouth. The menu is available only in Japanese. It might be a little difficult for foreigners to go.

A good atmosphere wafts in and out of the restaurant. The Kashiwa-tenpura bukkake is highly recommended.
