Great vide while came into the store. Warm welcome and quickly seated with a light lemon sensed water. Order the buta udon and an eel nigiri. The starter eel nigiri were nicely torched on a thin layer of rice. Might be a bit too much on the mayo but the teriyaki sauce is good.
Buta udon came with around 8 slices of marinated pork belly. The broth is clear yet has a depth in flavor.
It is a great place for friend and family gathering. For sure will come back for more. Thank you.

Beer tartar was great, it’s served icy cold and a great summer side dish. The chicken curry is also good, way more filling than I was expecting.

just loved it! The people in the service were the cutest, and the food was absolutely amazing — nothing else to say about that 🥰 Maybe the music could be a bit less loud and the lights a bit warmer to make it cozier, but honestly, I’d come back anytime!

Really nice staff and good choices of udon - soup or soupless. The aburi unagi appetizer was really good!

Good food! Udon being one of my favourite dishes, I enjoy coming here to get a bite of a unique take on udon. We ordered the spicy cream udon and the shrimp udon.
The spicy cream one is amazing especially eating the bread with the sauce that it comes with. The shrimp on the other hand I wouldn’t recommend, as the shrimp is not freshly made in house and nothing special about it (the shrimp tastes like frozen tempura you can buy at the groceries, the noodles and soup is not bad though)
I would would to come at off peak hours as well as there’s limited seating and wait times could vary.

Was going to go somewhere else nearby for dinner but on impulse decided we wanted udon and the high ratings (4.8!) looked promising. We ordered the geso karaage, herbal chicken udon soup, and beef brisket udon. The geso karaage was decent - not overcooked and chewy, could have had better breading, wasabi mayo was tasty. The beef brisket udon was okay - interesting smokey and savoury flavours but was missing something, and my partner felt the beef was a bit chewy. The herbal chicken udon soup was disappointing. There was nothing herbal about it. A tasty but boring chicken broth, that did have a nice amount of fat but wasn't too rich. It came with large, undercooked white onion slices that added nothing. And the chicken was just an unseasoned boiled chicken leg - tender, but flavourless. The udon in both our mains was soft but chewy, really nice!
We came with a hankering for Sapporo on tap so we ordered a pitcher. Unfortunately, their keg was having some issues so we were offered alternatives. We declined since it was really just for the craving. Halfway through our meal our server delivered two frosty cold mugs of Sapporo, on the house. Really lovely gesture, and it hit the spot! The service overall was excellent and fast.
TLDR: great service, underwhelming food (not bad, just boring). Might give it another shot.

Hands down one of the best udons I've had. Spicy seafood and chicken udon both great. A bit pricey though

We started off with the Assorted fried cheese, the Brie was my favourite. Their homemade raspberry compote paired perfectly with the cheese.The chicken curry Udon was delicious! So creamy and the udon was cooked soft and perfect. My friend tried the Maze Udon, it was delicious as well. Ended the meal with their matcha cheesecake and strawberry mochi,everything was delicious! Overall a great meal and would love to go back

This place was such a great experience. My friends and I came here, hungry and tired, and had the best time. We got the mazeudon, the cold udon and the karaage don, and they were all 10/10. The servers were also all super sweet and gave us hugs and candy when we left :)
