Shame they got rid of small portion sizes, but the food is so delicious! Rice portions are a bit smaller if that is helpful. Udon and tempura pictured and the noodle lights are awesome!
I love this place, tonkotsu udon was phenomenal! Tempuras were a-ma-zing! Especially, shrimp and zuchini tempura were next level. I love this restaurant, it delivers everything as its best. Only lacking poşnt was the toilets. They were extremely hot and small. And they always seem like short on stuff, slow preparaiton and not very clean tables. BUT that freshly made udon is worth everything🤤🧡
For my first time going, the food, service and atmosphere were superb. The food was tasty and filling - I ordered a regular and just about finished it. The service was lovely. They were attentive and very helpful. The atmosphere was also nice. It wasn't busy and they were playing Japanese music, which added to the authenticity.
Overall, I had a fantastic exeprience and will be coming again.
Enjoyed the katsu curry with udon, the portion of chicken was generous and I added a chicken gyoza for £1!
Reasonably priced with great taste, I would say the seating area is a bit cramped, and it was really hot in there could've done with some air conditioning!
Really cool place looking forward to coming again and trying the menu
Cheap and cheerful 😀
Great little noodle place🍜
Everything tried was delicious, no frills just flavour, what else you need.
We went the day of the BlackPink concert so the place was full.
We were welcomed in by a lovely member of staff who talked us through the menu. The food was delicious and healthy compared with all the fried food on offer everywhere else. The atmosphere was a comfortable oasis away from the crazy crowds elsewhere in the o2. There were a lot of staff all happily joking with each other as they worked. It was a great place to spend some time before our show started. I highly recommend it.
Very nice and welcoming place! The food choices were excellent, the tempura was made fresh, and the staff was friendly and helpful!
The food was nice as it's prepared instantly Infront of you and I appreciate the little stand by the drinks to add additional condiments and seasonings to your taste. Overall good food loved the chicken teriyaki, pumpkin koroke and gyozas were kind of dry and not as warm but I suppose it's because it is left out and not freshly fried upon purchasing. Would love to eat here again if I'm on the O2 and try something new.
Food was very fresh and served very quickly. We both had the beef nikutama and the udon noodles were cooked to perfection. The stations were all in one line so you could order noodles, pick up various selections of tempura, and then check out. There is also a condiments station with pickled ginger, chilli flakes, fresh chilli and fresh spring onions. It also had chilli oil, soy sauce, kewpie mayo and other dips and dressings.
This was a great place and had very fast service, the only problem was 20 minutes wait for rice and we had to get to our show so Udon was the only option. Then when asking for the Teriyaki they would not give it to us due to rice being the only option with it, this was the girlfriend's 1st Esperance for her and ruined it for her. I can't understand if the Teriyaki was that they could not just giving her the Udon noodles instead of the rice.
That being said once sat down the tables were not clean and had to do it ourselves, however after the disappointment and we sampled what they had to offer it was filling and well-priced. We are going to revisit it again soon and hope it was just a one-off. It was a Monday and would understand if it was the weekend.
Let's see what they have to offer on our next visit.
