Description

Inside this modern space, the kitchen focuses on a traditional preparation method to get the noodles' signature bite. The process relies on overnight dough maturation, with each portion processed as soon as an order is received. The resulting bowls, like the beef udon in a flavorful broth or the pork katsu curry udon, share the menu with fresh options like spicy yellowtail and truffle salmon hand rolls. The room itself features woodsy decor, making it a cozy spot to pair the meal with spirits or cocktails like the Shinkai Waves and Mystic Green.
