It would be great if they could also include beef udon or Tempura udon on their breakfast menu. I finally can’t try the one I wanted mostBut the udon is quite nice! The udon soup, my friend ordered, could be a bit more strong taste favor as fish soupOverall it’s worth to have a try and I will grab another chance to try their lunch / dinner laterFinally I grabbed another chance to come to try recently:) for beef / tempura udon in the evening, waiting on the queue for 40mins+ during weekend

One of the worst dinner experience ever ! Food was ok but the service is TERRIBLE. I ordered a sake and a Udon from the restaurant, stayed about 20 minute and eat in a fast tempo. After I finished the Udon the waitress was urging me to get out from the restaurant, she said there are still people in cue. I can’t even order extra stuff and the attitude from her is horrible. I don’t understand if it’s my fault staying ONLY 20 min in the restaurant or it’s her fault. She even touched me in the back asking me to leave, I just don’t get it. ONE OF THE WORST DINNING EXPERIENCE.

Doesn’t worth the hype. The broth is tasteless. Service is alright but the food is not up to

We arrived at 11:35 a.m. seeing people in the restaurant,Arrived there we were told very coldly that it is the breakfast card which is eligible until 12:00 p.m.No worries 25 min to wait we tell them we are going to have a drink.5 minutes later the waitress with red glasses comes to see us to take our order, she refuses to take our beer order, we also have to wait until 12 p.m.!We feel them very annoyed because we are not really used to the places and tourists, arriving at 12 p.m. a waiter with a very unpleasant look comes to take the order and makes fun of me because I said (Japanese pasta) unless I'm mistaken For my part, it’s pasta, udons!This is the most unpleasant welcome we received during our stay in London, frankly super disappointed!In addition, shrimp are frozen products.I found this restaurant nearbyI hope that when you go to visit Paris or another city in France the restaurateurs do not treat you like this because it is novice and unprofessional behavior.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian dishes

The ingredients are not fresh enough. Udon’s quality is totally sucks.

*Revisited - It was better the last time I came.Kakuni tastes like dog, but there is a bit of pork hair on the skin.I tried to eat mackerel udon, but I just couldn't eat it. Beef udon was delicious, but the texture of the noodles seemed to have changed a bit.Waiting time is about 30 minutes.Wheelchair accessibility: It doesn't seem easy to access as there is a small staircase inside.

Overrated.The udon itself is average and the broth is bland. Not bad but not a 4-star plus.

Slight wait but queue moved fast. Reliable tempura udon spit if you're in Soho.

Had arrived this Morning in SoHo and needed a warm meal. It was a chilly drizzly day. We were greeted at the door and guided to a spot to set. Got the Udon Noodle English Breakfast and a hot Ginger Tea. The soup was good with two slices of Bacon a Fried Egg and shiitake Mushrooms. The Udon Noodles were how I like them still firm. Great

Been here probably 50 times or more in my student years. My go-to order is the Tenzaru Udon. Their ebi tempura is huge. Love the crumb coating, crispy but light at the same time. Other than that, love that they always have daily specials. Worth trying.

I love udon noodles very much and Koya's are thick, easy to eat and well cooked. I ordered the lamb cumin miso, and they were so good! Rich and flavoursome with a generous sprinkling of spring onion.
