Noodles were good but it did not have the wow factor. Go earlier as there could be a line.
Best udon ever. Highly recommended

Extremely disappointed with the customer service. The man who appeared to be the manager spoke to us very rudely. He told us we would need to wait 40 minutes, even though there were many empty tables when we arrived. We ended up waiting for over an hour. We were with a baby and had to wait outside in the cold, which made the experience even worse. Truly unacceptable.

Great food- got ebiten and pork/cucumber udon with the assorted appetizers. Best udon I’ve had in a while!
Worth the wait. Get there early at 5 and put your name down for a table- waiting extra is worth it.

Very cozy spot, small so sometimes very busy need to wait long. Udon is soft and chewy. It is ok but not sure is worth the high price considering the portion size is on smaller side 🍜
Where I tried mochi in ramen for the first time, very nice broth, and the non-noodle dishes are also delicious, especially the eggplant and fried chicken, recommend!

The best Udon in Toronto ever!!!
Soup is light but a little salty for me, Noodle is absolutely perfect, chewy and soft at the same time. Beef is melt in my mount so good. Didn't expect the dessert but it's so good not too sweet is my style. Staff also nice and calm. See you next time for sure.

An oasis in the ever-declining Queen West neighbourhood.

The udon here is delicious and authentic, just like in Japan. The staff are friendly, and although the restaurant is a bit small, I would still highly recommend it!

We got there around 5pm, there was no wait for us, however people who came after us had waits for up to 90mins+. I believe they don’t take reservations, so you just have to go in with luck or a back up plan. The menu has a variety of udons—as they specialize in that. I went safe with a chicken udon (chikara udon / $22), which was perfect. firstly, ghe the pricing, ghe serving sizes are huge. I went with a group size of 3 people and none of us were able to finish our meals despite how delicious they were! the udon had fresh udon, a flavourful yet classic broth, chicken and mochi which was similar to tteok. We sat at the bar seating and it completely added to the atmosphere, reminding me of my times in Japan. I definitely recommend! At the end you also get a frozen red grape as dessert which was delightful.

Definitely the best udon place in the city!
Usually a long line so I recommend going early (5pm ish).
My fav is the tantan udon although this would be closer to a ramen rather than udon.
The udon noodles are top notch, not just in the city but worldwide. Comparable to those in Japan. It’s legit.

Portions were filling and the broth was nice and flavorful. Not a huge fan of thick noodles but Raku was amazing. Tempura and karaage was also crunchy. Would definitely recommend

Their hand-pulled udon noodles are amazing, and the service is awesome too.
