Sofia F.Sofia Figueroa: The tantan udon was delicious and just the perfect amount of spice. Huge serving! Service is great and good tunes food the ambience. Green tea is made per serving with powder, delicious.

Long C.Long Cao: Easily the best udon place in the city, and a little larger than its sibling in East Village. Come hungry and get the Niku, the amount of food is a lot larger than you might think.

Andrew L.Andrew Litvak: Amazing and low-key udon spot. Make sure you try the starters (duck breast was phenomenal) as well as the udon. Reservations recommended.

infusiainfusia: go for lunch and get the special bento lunch set which comes with tasty grilled salmon, stewed chicken and vege, lightly battered tempura and noodlicious soba or udon. unagi is reccommended!

Stephanie K.Stephanie Kim: Absolutely one of the best udon places I've been to in the city. They make a mean udon tempura! Avoid their tofu block appetizer though- it's a strange toothpastey consistency.

Jeremy G.Jeremy Goldstein: Best Agedashi and Sashimi I have ever had. Also of note: the Shabu-Shabu and the Omen Udon (served cold).

Village VoiceVillage Voice: The udon here is great, but some even better bites (cold burdock root or yuba with crab) can be found in the ever changing, seasonal, multi-course special meal. Expensive, but oh so worth it.

Noah W.Noah Weiss: Incredible $13-$18 lunches in serene environ. Handroll specials: negi Toro, blue crab, salmon avocado, spicy yellowtail. Set menus: soy fried chicken or washu udon beef rice bowl, all w/ chawanamushi
