"Customers queue up day after day at this popular shop. The udon is made from wheat flour from different regions, which is mixed and then let stand to enhance springiness and elasticity. Tempura of tai fish sausage and onsen tamago covered in broth are favourites. The egg-pot udon is served ‘Kisuke style’: entwined with egg and with dipping sauce ladled over it. ‘O-atsu’, noodles covered in hot broth, came about from customers saying they wanted to eat them in winter, too." - Michelin Inspector

Blow my mind good udon. The noodles are chewy and perfectly cooked. The soup the right level of sweetness and saltiness. We had not the cold and hot udon. Both was delicious. You know when it is good when there is a line and the line is made out of locals. Try it and let me know what you think.

Mind blowing udon! This is our second time eating at this place and highly recommend trying the udon soup with beef and add a fish tempura to it. Absolutely delicious! They have an English menu, accept cash only and no pictures or videos are allowed except pictures of your food. They have a very short hours of operation so check it out before going. There is usually a line up outside. It’s a must try in Osaka!

Best udon I’ve ever tried. I ordered the simplest one but the others looked really good too. I waited 25 minutes in line, not that bad.

One the best udon I’ve ever tried… they have english menu as well. Everything is homemade and the taste of the noodle is incredible. If you are a big eater, choose to add-on noodle which a very well proportioned size. Luckily there wasn’t any queue when we reach and probably deserves to be more popular!

I really enjoyed the fun texture of the noodle! Definitely worth visiting--my waiting time was about 15 min. Ask them for the menu in Eng. I got a basic Udon(750y) w/ maitake mushroom tempura(250y).

Delicious udon and with generous serving portions. The tempura is highly recommended too because they make the tempura fresh - crispy! Friendly staff. There is a line at noon. No line after 3 PM.

I had the beef udon with fried fish cake and my friend had the cold udon with soft boiled egg and fried fish cake. We really enjoyed it, but expected a bit more udon. Other than that, it was a good experience. We waited about 40-45 minutes.

I ordered a hot beef undo with soft boiled egg and prawn tempura on top. It was absolutely delight to eat, best undo I have ever tried.

One of the most delicious broths I've had . The noodle was the perfect texture. The broth was piping hot fr start to finish just the way I like it. I honestly inhaled the entire bowl. My daughter had the tempura prawn added to hers but I stuck with the beef udon, I'm not a fan of tempura anything. Tje beef was succulent and I still can't stop thinking of the broth, it was so amazingly good and clear. Warm and friendly staff, very attentive. There were not many people dining when we went but we heard it gets pretty crowded. Simple decor , there was a sign saying no pictures except for food so I respected that . I suppose it's especially for pics of other customers. Everything was perfect at this quick meal. Beef udon was 1250 yen and prawn was 350 yen. They serve hot or cold udon.

It's so hard for me to review places in Japan because I don't really have anything to compare it to. I mean, I'm from Hawaii and we have some amazing Japanese food there but a lot of it can't compare to Japanese food in Japan so I'm afraid it will take a little while for my reviews to be very useful, as far as taste goes :p That being said, I thought Udonya Kisuke was pretty good. The hours I see on yelp at the moment are wrong though so I'll see if I can update that in a bit.. But according to a sign they had posted, they are open from 12:00 (noon) until 9:00 at night. They are closed every Tuesday and the last Monday of the month. Okay back to the food itself- I ate here today with my host parents before heading to the bus station to head back to Shikoku. I got the tempura udon-which had a shrimp tempura and a gobo tempura- for 900¥. In my understanding of Japanese food in Japan, that's not cheap but not expensive also- it's average I suppose. The broth was piping hot when they brought our udon over. The winning factor for Kisuke is the broth. Their broth was pretty good and filled with flavor- especially for a broth that's so clear. I hate it when the broth is murky. It makes you wonder what's in it. The only problem I had with the taste was that the udon didn't seem to absorb very much of the broths flavor very quickly. The first few bites I took seemed pretty bland, but that's probably because it didn't have much time to soak in the broth because by the time I was half-way through, it was perfect. If you decide to come for lunch on a weekend, try to come early. We got there about 1:30. Shortly after we ordered, we noticed a line of paper waiting outside.
