There is no competitor in Vancouver you can get handmade noodle and soup from the scratch under $10. Brisket was perfect and you can ask for lean meat. Noodle refill was $1.5? Per. It felt almost free. Some fried dishes are tough to chew as it won't cut well in your mouth. The Services....are sometimes non exist, but hey, we get the same services in most noodle places and this place is at least a lot cleaner. One sharble washroom might be a cons. Still the best udon in Vancouver!!

terrible reception, like we are going to the funeral service. The food (half and half roll and the udon noodle with seaweed) is really below average in Vancouver area, not sure how it was listed in michelin bib. will not come again.

Best udon in the city! The noodles have great texture and is more chewy, I find the ingredients are always good quality and fresh. I recommend the cold udons and the inari!! ^-^

A variety of Udon. Go early right at opening. Always busy.

3.5/5. I was surprised by how umami the broth was, and the udon texture was spot on. Just a bit pricey and the toppings weren’t very generous.

Motonobu Udon - Vancouver
One of our favorite udon spots in Vancouver! Every family member finds something they love here — my daughter can’t get enough of their flavorful curry udon, my wife enjoys the sushi selections, and I personally love their comforting kitsune udon. My other daughter prefers the cold udon, which is perfectly chewy and refreshing.
The broth is rich, the noodles are always fresh, and the environment feels welcoming and lively. A must-visit for any udon lover in the city. We’ll definitely be back!

I had been wanting to come to this Udon shop for quite some time, but it was always closed when we got there. Finally, we got in.
Udon soup was perfect for a gloomy afternoon. All the staff seemed to be Japanese and the taste of the two items we ordered was authentic. It reminded me of the days I used to live in Japan.
We ordered one beef seaweed udon soup and a spicy tan tan noodle soup. Udon had a great texture, chewy but not too soft. Tan tan came with some cha siu which was the cherry on the cake.
We were served Genmaicha and were charged per person. We did not recall we were told about the charge, but it was on the menu under soft drink.
They might be on the more expensive side, but given the overall experience, it was not too bad.
Probably would come back as it is a specialized udon place after all, and I love udon.
Not our first visit, but definitely my last, which is unfortunate as we enjoy their food, but not the service. There were 2 strands of long black hair in my food, which I found about halfway through my meal. They did not remake my order (as I had lost my appetite at that point) and just gave me a new egg (which I asked for) in some plain broth (which was really salty, slightly bitter and nothing like the broth that came with my original order). A waitress (different from the one we brought up the issue to) came to say "sorry about the hair" and then charged full price for my bowl of noodles, which had 2 add-ons. If they wanted to charge for the remade egg, sure, that's fine. But the entire meal which I didn't get to eat? I don't think that's ok.
Hair in food happens; as long as it isn't a frequent/ reoccuring issue, I won't typically leave a poor review or anything because of it. However, this time, I'm just really dissapointed in how they dealt with this situation.

Udon noodles are very well made but soup is somewhat average. I'd expect more standard toppings like green onions and stuff without adding options. Sushi wasn't good as rice wasn't cooked properly for it. I'd suggest udon only here. Price is moderate.
