Miyakishimen

Kishimen (flat udon) is one of Nagoya’s specialties and this shop sells a really good version of it. The dashi broth has a good balance of sweet and savoury flavours to it and is great for warming yourself up now that the weather is getting cold. If you’re getting the set meals, I highly recommend getting the one with the kakiage on rice because it tasted even better than the kishimen itself. Crispy, not excessively oily, and they sauce they drizzle over it is like crack. Overall a good place to stop by for a meal if you’re exploring the Atsuta-Jingu shrine area, and the kakiage itself would have gotten 5 stars from me

Really enjoyed our meal here, udon + dessert, out door eating with nice view, undo noodles shop and dessert shop they are next each other! No English menu but has pictures which helps for ordering.

Tried the Nagoya-style flat udon (kishimen) here. The kishimen were smooth and the clear dashi broth was simple and nice. The bowl and fish cake had the “宫” mark, which I think refers to the shrine, quite a cute touch. We also had the leaf-wrapped rice, which reminded me of Malaysian Chinese 粽子 but with a lighter flavour. From the dessert stall next to it (same seating area), we got a matcha red bean parfait and it was good. Worth a try if you are nearby.

Kishimen here is the perfect dish to enjoy at the end of a visit to Atsuta shrine - Warm, full of flavour but also nicely balanced. Peaceful space on the temple ground. Would definitely recommend.

Tasty noodles, the texture is incredible and really refreshing! The only thing is that there's no indoor seating so it could feel really hot during summer. The English menu is useful for tourists.

Good udon shop inside the temple. The flat udon was soft and chewy.

Wonderful spot to try kishimen, Nagoya style of flat udon, that came with different topping. Hot water and hot Ocha is free, next to this kishimen joint there is a small adjacent stall that sells desserts and sweet sake too, definitely worth trying!

Ordered udon (great soup and noodles), and tonkatsu curry rice (quite nice), and a rice wrapped in leaves (weird)

What a perfect location for this kishimen restaurant especially on a cold afternoon. It served a Nagoya speciality udon with only outdoor seating. After ordering they handed over a pager to help track the order but it was ready in about five minutes. Very nice staff. Bowls were steaming when we sat down at our table and the first sips of the broth were rich and delicious for warming our bellies. The kishimen reminded us of fettuccine and had a nice chewy texture. Tempura shrimps had a nice batter to shrimp balance and it paired well dipping in the broth. The miya kishimen was a tasty bowl with its mix of veggies, bonito flakes and a small fried tofu that was just filled with sweet and savory juices. Well done and inexpensive. Another Nagoya speciality enjoyed from list!

I ordered a single piece of Shrimp Tempura here and it was well made, crispy, and delicious. The people who work here are also very friendly. Unfortunately I didn't have time to have a full meal and try the udon here, but it seems like the people around me were really enjoying their dish.
