Hasan HasanSeptember 28, 2012"Plain" udon noodles have a great mild broth. Duck donburi comes with big helping of wasabi! Yum
Irakli AgladzeMarch 30, 2013Best japanese food you've ever tried. Choose anything, won't be disappointed.
Quite possibly the greatest bowl of udon you will ever consume.
Byron FizpatrickJanuary 16, 2014Great handryer toilet. In fact top notch, met all my sanitary needs.
Łukasz KoreckiMay 25, 2013I don't is amazing but the place is quite expensive and you can find a place which is as good as Koya but for less money
Joyce ChiaSeptember 4, 2011I absolutely loved the udon noodles!! A must if you are a Japanese food lover.
The GuardianApril 25, 2012"There's a lot to be said for sticking to what you're good at – and this tiny Japanese place is very good at making noodles indeed..." Read more
Gaelle NormandOctober 15, 2011My reco: mushroom and walnut miso, Cold udon in hot broth. Very filling.
The onsen tamago as a topping as opposed to a small dish is great cracked straight into the hot broth. Mega love.
Ashton McGregorOctober 10, 2010Mostly known for it's udon but tempura is also very good (as I'd the beer). Always check out what the specials are
Metro.co.ukSeptember 10, 2010It's not much to look at behind its traditional noren curtain, but it's so worth venturing inside to discover what all the fuss is about - it's sensational. Metro gave it 4 out of 5 Stars. Read more
David ThairApril 29, 2012Really great food but the prices are questionable. Don't order the pickle unless £2.80 seems like a fair price for a tiny bit of cucumber!
Sixty GeluApril 3, 2013For all it's charm, the restaurant's service is slow: we waited 30mins for our meal. The food is tasty, yet overpriced. However, the staff are charming and helpful.
DaniellaMarch 23, 2013Love the atmosphere of this place. Vegetarian options not great though- extremely bland. And don't order the tempura batter - very bad idea! Friend's meat equivalent dish looked great though.

Alex NikolaouFebruary 18, 2012If you like Chinese noodles, this is the place! Otherwise you can pass!
GigiJune 5, 2012Be here early or prepare to queue. Also, be prepared to wait for the food as it seems to take the same time whether the place is full or not.
