Walk-ins:
Shouldn’t be a problem outside peak lunch hours. I walked in around 7:00 PM during dinner time, and the place was nearly empty.
Accepted forms of payment:
Cash or credit card.
Special notes:
You walk in, grab a tray, and tell the person behind the counter which bowl of udon you would like. They will assemble it for you on the spot and place the completed bowl on your tray. Afterward, you can choose from an assortment of oden, tempura, onigiri (rice balls), and drinks. Tiny plates are available next to the oden station for side dishes. Once you’ve selected everything, slide your tray to the cashier to pay. Afterward, head to the topping station, where you can add items like tempura flakes, grated ginger, spring onions, and more. There’s also a water station. Once you’re done, find an open seat and enjoy your food.
