There is an udon restaurant located a 3-minute walk from Higashi-Mikuni Station on the Osaka Metro Midosuji Line. They specialize in Sanuki udon and serve high-quality udon dishes. The restaurant already has a high rating of 3.66 at the time of visit, and there was no line to get in during the evening visit. The seating was about 50% full. I ordered the hearty Naka-Ya Bukkake Udon (1330 yen). It was mentioned that the udon would be boiled after ordering, and it was served in what felt like less than 10 minutes. The presentation was great, and the tempura was freshly fried. The slightly firm tempura coating had a nice flavor. There was also a soft-boiled egg on top, but I recommend waiting a bit before mixing it in. I tried it first without the egg, just with the broth, and it was really delicious. The broth had a sharp, clean taste. The tempura toppings such as chicken tempura, shrimp tempura, and fish cake were plentiful. The noodles and broth were really to my liking, so I think the bukkake without toppings or the raw soy sauce would also be delicious.

A long-awaited visit to the restaurant. Arrived at 11:30 on a weekday with no waiting. What to order? "Gutsuri Bukkake Udon" (1100 yen) with "Kitsune" (extra 80 yen). Impressions? The "Gutsuri Bukkake Udon" comes with shrimp tempura, chicken tempura, and chicken tempura, which is a great menu for first-time visitors. Personally, I liked the chicken tempura the best, followed by the chicken tempura and then the shrimp tempura. Overall, everything was delicious. The highlight here is the udon, which is thick and has a strong texture, just the way I like it. I regret not getting the large size... The fact that rice is free with lunch is a nice bonus, with options like "Special Yakitori Rice," "Pork Miso Rice," "Grated Yam Rice," and "White Rice." It's a popular place with high cost performance. After 11:30, more and more customers started coming in. Anything else to mention? I thought lunch was only available on weekdays, but it seems they also serve it on Saturdays... I'll definitely go back to have udon again!

The super big tempura fish cake bowl had a crispy texture and a fluffy feel. The fish flavor, sweetness, and chewy noodles all combined perfectly. The broth was delicious and paired well with the unique flavor of the dish. The chicken tempura was juicy and flavorful, not overpowering. The side dish of chicken rice had a rich and comforting taste. Overall, I had the cold tempura fish cake bowl and it was delicious. We went on a weekday at 12:30pm and there was a line of 4 people, with a 5-minute wait. Thank you for the meal.

I visited the restaurant after work on a regular day. I ordered the limited wagyu and toro imo tsukemen. The acidity of the cherry tomatoes was just right, and it was delicious. It seems like they have raised the prices, but it's understandable given the current situation. I will come back to try the curry udon next time. Thank you for the meal.

Today's lunch was a combination of 840 yen bukkake udon and pork bowl. The udon noodles were thick and chewy, with a firm texture that I really liked. They were not overwhelmingly wheaty but incredibly delicious. The bukkake sauce was on the sweeter side with a strong bonito flavor, more Osaka-style than Sanuki-style. The pork bowl was way tastier than those from the popular gyudon chains. Amazing. Great value for money, but most people seem to be ordering the chicken tempura udon... I'm really curious about that. I'll try that next time. Thank you for the meal.

I used it for lunch and I've decided to revisit. The lunch sets come with various rice options which is a great deal. This time, I chose the tororo rice. The udon noodles were chewy and delicious, and the tempura was crispy. The wait time was not long, even though the menu mentioned about a 15-minute wait. I would love to try other udon dishes next time.

I visited for lunch. Today's set meal was Bukkake cold noodles and tuna bowl (860 yen). The thick noodles were chewy and delicious. Personally, I recommend the curry udon, but the Bukkake noodles are also of high quality. It's best to visit around 11:30 am on weekdays as it gets crowded with office workers. Thank you for the meal.

The udon noodles are thick and chewy, not too firm, which I really like. The tempura chicken is crispy and also to my liking. It's located near Higashi-Mikuni and Shin-Osaka, but surprisingly not crowded. The prices are reasonable, making it one of my favorite spots. It seems to be popular among locals.

Visited on a Saturday night. The restaurant was moderately busy, making it easy to enter even for solo diners. The grilled salted duck was rich in flavor, especially delicious when eaten with wasabi salt. The tempura on rice bowl had a large and impactful piece of sweet and crispy fried fish cake. The udon noodles were fluffy yet chewy, offering a new texture. There were also many other side dishes available, making it a good place for drinks as well!

- Daily Udon Set Meal (Today's Special) for 860 yen (Beef Sukiyaki Don + Bukkake Udon (cold)) - A popular udon restaurant located about a 3-minute walk from Osaka Metro Higashi-Mikuni Station. - The broth: slightly rich bukkake broth. - The noodles are homemade and have a firm texture. - Multiple table seats inside the restaurant. It was my second visit in about 5 and a half years, and as always, the restaurant was bustling. - The beef sukiyaki don I had as part of the "Today's Special" was simply delicious. - The udon noodles still had a firm texture, and this thickness is just delicious! - I found out later that you can order extra noodles. I didn't know and ordered the regular portion, but next time I want to make sure to order extra. - The quality of the food and the wait time are directly proportional at this renowned restaurant. As expected, there was a wait when I left. Thank you for the meal!

Matured udon... I wonder what it is? I tried it when I was on a business trip to Osaka. I had the Chikuten bukkake and pork bowl for about 1100 yen. The udon noodles are thick and have a smooth surface, soft but with a firm texture - kind of chewy and sticky? The firmness and chewiness are different from the usual. Personally, I like this texture. The broth has a strong flavor with a good amount of bonito, giving a nice taste that complements the udon well. The pork bowl is like a pork belly version of gyudon, with tasty meat and a good match between the broth and rice. Eating the simmered pork with the udon together is the best way to enjoy it! I would definitely order a meat udon if they had it. A solid udon dish, thank you for the meal!

Last time I visited this place alone, I made a reservation for my next business trip. There are many famous udon restaurants near Shin-Osaka, but this one has become my favorite. This time, I went with my colleague and we mainly ordered appetizers, but of course, we couldn't leave without trying the udon. We finished with a hearty curry udon. The dishes other than udon were also delicious and well-prepared. The atmosphere was great. Don't miss out on this place if you're in the area.

Delicious udon can be enjoyed at "Jukusei Udon Nakaya." Had my first party there. We had duck grill, oyster fry, chicken tempura, salad, and more, quite a variety. The best part was definitely the duck hot pot with delicious broth, followed by changing it up with curry udon pot. First, the duck hot pot was amazing! The broth was so tasty! And dipping the duck in it, like shabu-shabu style, made it even better. The duck fat really enhanced the flavor of the hot pot. Then we switched to the curry hot pot. Absolutely divine! A fantastic hot pot experience. Of course, the udon was also delicious. It was a wonderful party.

The wheat flavor is strong. It has a good chewiness without being too firm. It's chewy and has a good texture. When visiting udon shops in Kagawa, you often strongly feel these three characteristics while each shop has its own personality. I felt this from the first bite of Nakaya's udon. I expected the broth to be sweet because it's duck broth, but it balances the flavor by adding acidity with chopped cherry tomatoes to enhance the bonito flavor. Furthermore, adding tempura scraps enhances the richness of the duck loin plus fat, making you nod in agreement. You don't even need to add tempura toppings. The duck used is selected for its delicious meat without the typical liver smell of domestic ducks. While there are many delicious udon shops in the Shin-Osaka area, Nakaya has become my favorite. I have created a 60-second video of this restaurant on Instagram.

My recent favorite spot. It's quite a walk but I make the effort to go to the office for lunch. It's tough with the rain and heat coming up (^o^;), but this udon place is worth it. The noodles have a firm texture and a smooth chewiness that's addictive. This time, I had the cold bukkake udon with mountain vegetable tempura! They even gave me a side of mixed rice. The tempura was a nice size with a satisfying crunch. By the way, they use Shirahou flour to make the udon, a high-quality blend of domestic and Australian flour. As an amateur, I used to think domestic flour was the best, but a udon shop in Kitashinchi that was even featured in Michelin once said, "Australian flour is the best!" It's really fascinating. And the best udon here is 900 yen. It's definitely worth it.

Matured Udon Nakaya! I finally went to the udon restaurant in Higashi-Mikuni that I had been curious about for a long time! I had been unable to go before due to it being sold out or crowded, but miraculously, I was able to get in this time (´▽`)/ It's great to have weekdays off! The benefit of having weekdays off is this, right? Haha This time, I ordered the following: - Assorted delicacies (3 types) - Grilled duck with salt - Chicken tempura - Chicken tempura on cold udon Udon is relatively light, so I started with a refreshing highball toast (*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)ﾊｱﾊｱ!!! First, the assorted delicacies with three types: scallop with yuzu pepper, pickled plum with jellyfish, and whelk with wasabi! This lineup is like a trio of baseball players hitting home runs! Personally, it's a grand slam for me! ( ﾟДﾟ)ｳﾏｰ!!!( ﾟДﾟ)ｳﾏｰ!!!( ﾟДﾟ)ｳﾏｰ!!!( ﾟДﾟ)ｻｲｺｰ!!!( ﾟДﾟ)ｻｲｺｰ!!!( ﾟДﾟ)ｻｲｺｰ!!! Seriously, they understand the hearts of drinkers! Chicken tempura is crispy with plenty of juicy meat! And the grilled duck that I was curious about! It has a strong red meat taste typical of duck and is light in flavor. Eating it with wasabi and salt brings out the original umami of duck. It has some fat, but it's not heavy at all ( ´ ▽ ` ) For the finish, I had the chicken tempura on cold udon! I felt that 3 pieces were too many, so I ordered 2 pieces haha The tempura was delicious, so I also ordered the chicken tempura. First, the noodles - they are extremely thick. When you chew them, they have a bouncy and chewy texture. Yet, they are easy to bite through!!! I was really surprised by this!! It seems like the aging process has an effect! This is the most surprising thing I've encountered this year (；ﾟДﾟ)ｶﾞｸﾌﾞﾙ!!!!!!! Also, the dipping sauce is delicious! It's made with kelp and bonito broth! The flavor is strong, but the broth taste is solid. It's a sauce with condensed umami. This sauce goes well with ginger too! The chicken tempura has a crispy and crunchy coating. The meat quality is juicy, just like the chicken tempura. But the chicken tempura has a strong black pepper flavor, which was quite stimulating ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ The udon restaurant I was curious about serves delicious noodles and broth, and this thick noodle is irresistible (*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)ﾊｱﾊｱ!!! Thank you for the meal! Matured Udon Nakaya! Definitely recommended!!!

I come here almost once a month for meetings because it's close to the Osaka branch office. It's my first time posting on Tabelog (a restaurant review website) so I came with two other people. I had the recommended lunch for 900 yen with a free 400g medium serving. It had tempura bamboo shoots, fried tofu, and yam on top, so it felt like a great deal. Today's special lunch was a medium fatty tuna bowl and bukkake udon for 840 yen. The udon noodles were thick and chewy, and I enjoyed them a lot. The famous tempura bamboo shoots were crispy on the outside and very delicious. Usually, there's a wait, but today there were only three people, so I was surprised and lucky. ✌️

In 2010, a udon noodle restaurant that also serves izakaya-style dishes opened near Higashi-Mikuni Station, just a 2-minute walk from the station, and about a 10-minute walk from Shin-Osaka Station. I arrived at the restaurant at 6:45 pm on a weekday and found it lively with customers enjoying themselves. The restaurant claims to have trained at Yashima in Moriguchi and Mitsushima in Shinmon, but the accuracy of this information is unclear. They use wheat flour from Kagawa to make their homemade Sanuki udon noodles, which are aged overnight in a special room. Recently, Sanuki udon noodles in Tokyo have been slightly thinner, likely due to shorter boiling times. However, the noodles at this restaurant are thicker and require a boiling time of 15 to 20 minutes. They have a strong dedication to their broth, using a dashi made with kombu and bonito flakes that gives off a rich aroma. They make the dashi fresh every morning. In Osaka, Sanuki udon noodles have developed into their own unique style known as Osaka Sanuki udon. On a humid night, after walking from the station, I felt like having something cold. I chose the Tororo and Nenabe Vegetable Bukkake Cold Udon for 955 yen. The broth was a delightful surprise, enhancing the flavor of the noodles. It took about 20 minutes from ordering to serving due to the boiling time. The menu was extensive, including izakaya dishes. They welcome solo diners and those who prefer just a meal without alcohol. The noodles had a good thickness and chewiness, not too firm, and had a nice stretch to them. I liked the combination of thickness and firmness. I imagine there are many delicious udon restaurants like this in Osaka. The proprietress was efficient and friendly, making it a pleasant dining experience. Next time, I plan to try the Illico Tempura while relaxing and enjoying the atmosphere. The Chikuwa Tempura and Kashiwa Tempura also looked delicious.

It's already like midsummer even though it's May, my body isn't used to the heat yet, it's too early! On days like this, I crave cold noodles. There are 3 delicious udon shops near my workplace, which one should I choose? On this day, I decided to go to Jukusei Udon Nakaya. The nearest station is Midosuji Line Higashi-Mikuni Station. There are both counter and table seats, and it gets crowded during lunchtime with customers from nearby companies. Since it was past the peak time, it was not crowded on this day. I wanted to eat cold udon, but I decided to go with Tororo Udon. - Tororo Bukkake Udon Set 880 yen. The homemade noodles made at the shop are slightly thick, chewy, and supple, with a good texture. The Tororo has a strong stickiness to it. It was delicious when mixed well with the warm egg. I enjoyed every last bit with a spoon. The side dish rice in the set meal at the udon shop is always delicious, right? The ingredients are finely chopped, and the vegetables are easy to eat. Looking back, it seems like it was my first time eating at Nakaya. The flavor was solid and tasty. I was full! I had cold udon, cooled down a bit, and now I feel ready to tackle the rest of my work. Thank you for the meal. Jukusei Udon Nakaya 050-5872-5731 Osaka, Yodogawa-ku, Miyanohara 5-3-52 Form Shin-Osaka 1F.

I used to get lost trying to find my way, and I visited "Nakaya" restaurant. Oh! It's actually quite close from Shin-Osaka if you have someone who knows the way to take you there. On this day, I had the daily lunch special, which was bukkake udon and tuna bowl. The tuna bowl had good rice and the tuna was moist and delicious. As for the udon, it was thick with a firm texture and a chewy quality, making it excellent. In terms of the quality of the udon alone, I think it's on par with a top 100 restaurant. There are various delicious udon restaurants in Shin-Osaka, but for me, this udon here suits my taste the best.

Chiku-Ten Bukkake Udon. The tempura chikuwa is extremely delicious. The first bite is amazing. The udon noodles are firm and satisfying to eat. It also comes with rice and has great value for the price. The broth is exquisite and makes you want to keep coming back for more.
