Where To Eat When You’re Visiting Tokyo - Tokyo - The Infatuation

"Here’s the question we ask when judging any udon spot: Are the cold zaru noodles neatly bundled together like a princess’s ponytail? At Kirimugiya Jinroku, the udon indeed looks like Rapunzel’s golden locks: smooth, tangle-free, and glossy. Beyond the zaru, they offer other variations, such as noodles served in piping hot soup or topped with mentaiko. Kirimugiya Jinroku also makes excellent tempura with a thin, shattering batter, the star of which is the soft-boiled egg, with an intact amber and oozy yolk center. Kirimugiya Jiroku has two locations. The main Shinjuku restaurant can get crowded, so we like the one in Naruko because it’s less busy, which means less time in line and more time eating thick, bouncy udon." - kiera wright ruiz

On a small vacation with my Family, was an amazing experience, we arrived around 18:30 and waited in line around 30 min, the line went quite fast. It’s a small place and we were 4 people, they still managed to squeeze us in and make a nice table for all of us. Once we sat, we got our english menus and water on the table straight away. We all choose the same thing but with different tempura sides, the food takes around 5-10 min to arrive once you order, super chewy udons, the beef was amazing flavored and the broth extremely rich. Big thanks to all the staff, they made our experience. The dining itself didn’t last too long, after 30-40 min we were out, hight flow of guest!

Came early and joined the queue before it opened for business and finally got to try this popular udon restaurant. Came twice before today but got discouraged by the long queues and left. Made the extra effort to come early and queue today and was rewarded. Besides being popular locally (a few locals recommended it to me), they have also been featured in the Michelin guide for a few years already. I must say I like the texture of their udon and the broth. However, I had better tempura before, for example, at Tenmasa, so it's 2 different leagues. Nonetheless, for the price (not even 10% of Tenmasa), it is good value for money and is liiving up to Michelin's criteria. Their service was prompt and nice and the restaurant clean and tidy.

This is already my third visit to this udon restaurant, and I still find myself craving their noodles again and again. The moment you walk in, the staff greet you with such friendliness that you immediately feel at home. The udon has that perfect, chewy texture, and the dashi is rich, tasty, and deeply comforting the kind of flavor you remember long after your meal. Every bowl feels consistent, satisfying, and made with care. If you’re looking for delicious, authentic udon with great service, this place is absolutely worth the visit. I’ll definitely keep coming back!

I came here on a weekday night (maybe 8-ish?) so I got a table with no line🥰 I ordered Jinroku cold udon with a beer, the udon was soooo chewy and the tempura were light and crispy! Also the staff here were so friendly, I had a lovely dinner here! I’ll definitely be back!

Small udon restaurant that was clearly popular with the locals - one of our favorite meals on our trip to Japan. The noodles were fresh and both the hot and cold preparations were so flavorful and perfect. The tempura was great too. I’d recommend to anyone visiting the area. FYI, cash only

This was our last stop in Tokyo and I'm glad we ended on the trip with this meal. We went in the evening and had to wait for a bit. Even though it was busy, the servers were really kind and patient. The udon was so fresh and had the perfect texture. We tried a cold one and a hot one, we both preferred the cold one as it kept the chewy texture better, but honestly both good. We know this is an udon place but tempura though... it was really good. The batter was light, crispy, flavourful and not that oily. It brought out the flavours of the veggies/prawn/egg.

Some of the most delicious udon I’ve had. Cosy atmosphere with dim lights and jazz playing in the background. Had to wait for a little bit before getting in but it was worth it.

*accidently wrote review in wrong restaurant - this review is from January 2025* Did a few days around Tokyo and Osaka, and this was the BEST udon I had on my trip. Incredibly fresh noodles that are cleanly and artfully cut, tempura was freshly fried, chicken and shrimp was so tender, and best of all: the tempura egg was cooked to absolute perfection. It's been 10 days since I had my last bowl and I'm still thinking about that egg. I'm an udon connoisseur and if you are too, you will be thoroughly satisfied eating here. Best experience! After writing this review 8 months later I still think about this Udon spot. I miss it and will definitely come back when I visit Japan next time!
