| - On a cold day, what's better than a nice hot bowl of udon?! I came here for lunch om a weekday. As you enter the restaurant, they have a display case of all the menu items, so you can see what you want to order. Walk around the corner and they have a menu you can lool at as well. There are trays stack up and you grab a tray and place your order. It's a bit confusing at first because I didn't know if i was supposed to wait for my noodles..no one told me anything. But within a min, they gave me my bowl of udon noodles after placing the order. There are also tempuras and chicken, where you can grab what you want. The prices for tempura range about $1.75 per piece. After you grab whatever tempura you want, you pay and then eat! The style is set up somewhat like a fast food style.
My order: Kake udon. The most simple of them all. Broth was good, hot, and refreshing. The udon noodles were cooked to perfection. Chewy texture, not overcooked or undercooked.
Shrimp tempura: i only grabbed one piece. The size of the shrimp tempura was pretty small for the price. It was also cold as well. It was not good.
Chicken. This was the first thing i took a bite of as soon as i sat down with my food. And unfortunately this was cold as well. They give you 2 pieces of chicken on a skewer, which would have been decent if it was hot.
Drinks: they have calpico and sanuki lemonade! Sanuki lemonade taste like a mix of calpico and lemonade together. It was pretty bomb! They also have syrups you can flavor your drinks as well. But I highly recommend the sanuki lemonade!
Overall it was a good udon place minus the tempura.They need to do something about the food warming for the tempuras, because obviously what they have is not keeping the food up to the correct temperatures per standards. But udon is definitely worth the try!
