Ordered the Pork Katsu Don combo with hot udon. Very filling and so tasty. The customer service was amazing and they always filled up my water and hot tea. We were in the back corner but still got so much attention. The wait wasn't so bad on a Monday night, but they were already out of the pork gyoza by 7:30pm. Not sure how soon they will be finding a new place, so I'll have to eat as much as I can before they close. The place is small, so I wouldn't recommend large groups coming here. Parking is kind of tight as well. Still worth it to make the trip. Can't wait to eat my leftovers.

Great little udon japanese restaurant! Only my 2nd time there, but the food is amazing. They make their noodles fresh every day. Their dashi has very good flavor and they don't use MSG. Shrimp tempura is classic with a good layer of tempura batter. Not too thick and the shrimp is sweet! Hopefully they will be able to find a new location to continue their family business

Hole in the wall kind of place, but it has one of the best food we have eaten in Honolulu! Small space, so you might have to wait for a table depending of the time, but food comes out pretty quickly, so it is a tolerable wait. Meal specials very from $13-$17 and it comes with a lot of food. The meal we got was very savory and authentic and we went home happy with the experience. We will be returning to try other dishes in the future!

I spent a year in Japan and this restaurant smelled and felt just like the little noodle shops I passed on my way home from a long day of work. Comfort food to be sure. I had the nabeyaki udon just like in those huge steaming kettles sold by street vendors outside the train station. they make their noodles by hand. I also had the fried mochi, served in a soy ginger sauce with sliced green onion.

A great hole in the wall Japanese restaurant specializing in udon dishes. Service is quick and friendly. Food options range between Japanese curry to tempura to their well known udon dishes. There's a parking lot along King Street and a parking lot in the back, accessible from Young Street. It can get busy during lunch and dinner time, but there is a sign in sheet on the door and benches in front to wait on. Service is fairly fast so the wait time usually isn't too long.

The forte of this place is the freshly made Udon noodles. The noodle, whether it is thick or the thinner kind, has a texture and consistency which is one of the best I ever had. You can have them in cold or hot, with or without soup. I enjoyed the Udon salad which has vegetables, sea weeds and shrimps.

The outside looks a bit rundown, but the inside is quite nice. The servers were not bothersome and moved quickly to serve everyone. Also, it is a bit cramped inside. As for the food, it was different. The soup base was not salty for once, and the blend of ingredients made it "clean" tasting. Their prices seems a little high, but most of their ingredients are imported from Japan, adding more authenticity to their dishes.
