Yamashita Honki Udon - Shibuya Namikibashi

A nice place to grab some udon. The decor is nice and very homey, and the selection of options is bigger than your typical shop. They also offer rice dishes to accompany your udon. I went with the beef udon and it was tasty. The noodle was not too chewy but chewy enough. You gotta add some 七味 to kick up the flavor. The service was fast and the staff friendly.

Found this restaurant by accident but it turned out great. I ordered the Udon set, and chose beef for the topping of the Udon and it tastes just amazing. The broth of the soup is great and the meat was just the right amount. The mentaiko rice that came along in the set was also surprisingly well matched with the Udon. I ordered an extra squid tempura because I want some tempura, and it also tastes amazing.

Great place for freshly made udon noodles when in shibuya area! Worth the short walk from the train station! Away from the crowd. The udon was chewy and fragrant! And the restaurant offered cold, hot and even special creamy style of cooking! Service was friendly and fast. Be prepared to wait some on weekdays lunch from 12 noon onwards!

Great place for udon! Friendly staff that was able to seat six of us. Amazing taste and some of the speciality udon like the whipped cream with curry is amazing!

Though not as chewy as Kyoto udon, still very well made. I love the currybonara sauce and the beef is SO tender and sweet. The tempura - like chikuwa, ebi etc go so well with the curry too. 🍤 We also tried hojicha cream udon, that was a bit heavy 😱 but still interesting!

The Udon here is fresh and delicious, and to my ignorant tourist ways, just as good as those trendy Udonya with a two hour line out front. It’s a bit far from Shibuya, on the southeast side (pretty much the opposite of the Crossing), so it’s very affordable. While they have an English menu, the staff will have a bit of trouble. I didn’t think they were as used to tourists. That said, Google Translate does wonders…. The Curry Udon is fantastic. I also really like the Zaru Udon (dipped) in the summer.

Probably the best udon I have ever had. If you like the creamy taste, then this place is for you. I usually don't enjoy the taste of mentaiko, but when I ordered the Cream cheese mentai udon (pictured), I was surprised at how perfectly it worked together. With the additional karaage plate, I paid around 1500 yen. Worth visiting every time you are around the Shibuya area. I will definitely come again!

Full of locals so I knew it was good and didn’t have to wait to be seated. The place was super cozy and food was crazy good. I’ve never had such perfectly cooked vegetable tempura and of course the noodles themselves were fantastic.

Came here for dinner on a weekday and had to wait about 30-45 minutes before we were seated. Definitely not an in-and-out restaurant like you see all over Tokyo. They have so many options that I want to come back and try them all! I ended up getting the cold udon with raw egg and it was perfect, everything I needed after being in the chaos that is Shibuya and the sweltering heat. I also tried a tomato? sour and it was surprisingly good! Udon is pretty hard to mess up I've found, but out of all the places I've tried I think this one really excels in their craft. Try this place out if you have the time!

I really liked the Cold Bukkake goma-dare udon with chicken tempura The sesame sauce was very tasty and the chicken tempura was moist inside and crunchy on the outside Service is great and the Ambiance is fairly quiet

This is a busy udon restaurant on the comer. They offer udon, tsukemen and paired sides. They also offer extra noodles free of charge. Unless you're quite hungry, I suggest not to accept it. We arrived around 11;44 and it almost full without lines. As soon as we sat down and ordered, there was a line. The basic etiquette in Japan is, if restaurant is full, wait outside. I ordered Tsukemen with tempura and a side of vegetables tempura. The ordered came in about 5-10 minutes. The Tsukemen broth has just the right seasoning but the udon was a bit too firm for me. Udon was fresh but just my preference. The tempura was fresh but average as it was a bit oily. We also had curry udon which wasn't bad. Overall o would rate is a 3.5 stars if I could. There is also a clean rest room as well in the corner. Overall clean and quick restaurant with some character. There are also hooks for your bags on the seats at the center tables.
