Recently visited this restaurant. It was packed and odd thing about this restaurant is that it self sitting, so people kinda have to fight for it.
However the food was great! We order udon, fried squid, spicy tuna rice and some fried fish. Spicy tuna rice and fried squid were amazing 😋

Fukada has changed their dine in policy. You still order and paid like you are getting a take out, then you find a table and the server will give you the food in take out containers. After you finish the meal, you disposed of the trash yourself. Water is self serve . There are tables outside if you want to eat there. Food is still very good. Restaurant opens at 11:30 but you can call around 11:15 to place your order. This is my favorite lunch combo, sea food salad and unagi don. (extra $) Big pieces of sashimi, the salad dressing is so good I bought a bottle to take home one time. They sell their different dressings for $5 a bottle.

Ordering process was fairly simple and food was pretty good! The only reason it got a 4 is because it's still mostly in takeout mode - not inherently a bad thing, but does make it feel more like takeout then a sit down restaurant

The place is so cool. I have been coming here for.almost 8 years. The food is very traditional Japanese but since the 2020.pandemic their food service changed :( no more waiters

This place is excellent. I always get the bowl with spicy tuna on top. I ask for Sriracha. I definitely get it with the side, salad and miso soup and it’s phenomenal.

$8 Udon in Irvine, heck yes!!!
My husband took me here cause he used to go frequently when he lived in the area.
It was delicious!!
There is plenty of parking, dine in can happen if you are ok with take out bowls and utensils (due to a shortage of employees, they cannot serve anyone like a restaurant), and there is water available.
I ordered the simple udon with tempura flakes that included spinach and it was amazing! The best part was how affordable it was!!
I tried my husband’s warm soba noodle soup and egg and chicken with rice. It was all so good!!
Would definitely come back here and recommend it to many!
It’s just a shame that so much dine in plastic containers are being used and wasted.

Seafood Combination: Seafood Salad with Sesame Dressings and a Shrimp Tempura Crunchy Roll. Will definitely return in the future!

This is a Japanese place specializing in noodles (soba and udon). They are only doing take out, though there are a few outdoor seating options. The staff were prompt in taking our order and the food didn’t take too long to come out.
I tried the cold udon with mountain veggies combo with spicy tuna roll. The udon was pretty chewy and the veggies were a nice add. I got the noodles cold and it came with some soup with good flavor. However, I wish that there were options for all kinds of toppings. My favorite udon place in Boston (Yume ga aru kara) serves udon with many different toppings. The spicy tuna roll was pretty good too, and the pieces were huge! Lots of fish inside. It paired well with the ginger.
My boyfriend got the cold soba with fried pieces combo with curry rice. He said the soba was okay (definitely go with udon if you order from this place). The curry was sweeter than I’m used to, but otherwise pretty good.
Overall, the food was pretty good. I’d say better than some other udon I’ve had, but not my top.

Located in the strip mall with the 24 Hour Fitness center, and Montessori center, which limits your parking options. Currently take out orders only, and limited outdoor seating area. Authentic Japanese cuisine, and great lunch specials combinations! Cold soba noodles with a generous bowl of spicy tuna. The spicy tuna sauce is completely addicting; creamy, spicy, and fresh yellowfin tuna!
I loved the dipping sauce for the soft soba noodles.

Pretty good Japanese food. You can mix and match a lot of options from their combo
menu—noodles, rice, salad, rolls. I got the sansai (mountain vegetable) hot soba noddles and seafood salad. Was surprised at how large the servings were... definitely a filling meal.
The soba was very tasty and chewy and I loved the mountain vegetables—whatever they were—a mixture of roots and greens, lol. Very flavorful.
The seafood salad came with huge seared chunks of salmon and albacore tuna over a bed of mixed greens. The miso dressing was tasty but very salty.
