We were originally on our way to another place, but suddenly wanted something warm, so we walked in after seeing a sign that simply said “Udon,” without knowing anything about the restaurant. It turned out to be much better than we expected. The prices were reasonable, and there were plenty of tables to sit at.
The regular udon reminded me of the simple, warm, and comforting inexpensive udon I used to have in Korea, which I really liked. The cream udon was especially unique and delicious. The takoyaki was also quite good for the price. If I’m in the area near campus again, I’ll definitely visit again.

A cozy place with tender, flavorful food. I loved every bite! You place your order using the tablets, print your selection, and hand it to the staff, who prepare everything according to your instructions. You can add items like shrimp, teryaki chicken or whatever you like to your tray as they prepare your order. The watermelon juice is amazing, and the bone broth soup is wonderfully calming makes it perfect for warming up on cold winter days.

Stopped in for lunch. It was a bit busy, but the service was fast and great.
I got the curry udon with poached egg, ebi katsu, and shrimp shumai. All were super tasty! I’ll be back!

Son and I had lunch here a few days ago. I had beef bone broth udon. Broth was delicious. Udon noodles were also very good. Son had the tonkotsu. Loved the options of adding more or less options in udon orders. Also the sauce station was very nice and had many options which allowed us to create a more seasoned soup, if desired.
The extra options like ebi tempura was tasty as well as the shrimp cake and takoyatsu (sp?). We were not fans of the gyoza. Tasted like it was done in an air fryer- stale.
Also the atmosphere here is very small and can feel overwhelming. Tight, cramped. Tables were sticky as well and not wiped down well. To be fair we went during lunch so it was busier than usual.
Do get the watermelon juice. Amazing.
Price adds up quickly with extra options so beware.

Order on kiosks, receive the udon bowl and then pick up the fried items if desired. Pay and find your own seating.
The curry udon/curry rice is really good. Fried items are a hit or miss depending on how long they’ve been sitting there, but the fresh ones are really good. Will return.

I’ve had a very positive experience with Kinzō Udon, both dining in and ordering for takeout. This is a great spot for anyone looking for delicious, authentic Japanese noodles in a quick and easy-to-use setting.
The atmosphere and self-service concept are really nice. The restaurant has a modern, clean design, and the digital kiosks make ordering fast and simple. I was very impressed with the flavor of the noodles and the quality of the ingredients.
I was also happy with my takeout order. The packaging was excellent—very stable and sturdy. It’s clear they put a lot of thought into making sure the food travels well.
I’ve been trying something new with each visit, and I plan to keep coming back to try more of the menu. I would definitely recommend Kinzō Udon to others.

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.
This is the second time I’ve gone to this restaurant and gotten food poisoning afterwards. I know for a fact it was from the tempura bar, because I’ve been here quite a few times and the only times I’ve thrown up afterwards have been from the tempura bar. The meat is ALWAYS room temperature, I don’t think the heat lamps even work.
The crazy thing? I think I’ll probably still go back and just avoid the tempura bar. I really love their udon and it’s the only place in town I’ve found that does good udon. So, I may be fooled a third time. Let’s see!

This place is such a gem! It’s got fun options of hot ready-to-go food as well as fresh udon and rice bowls. The vibe alone is 10/10. Already anticipating my next visit

I loved my dashi broth udon! The noodles were excellent and I could tell they were fresh. Great broth flavor that overwhelmed the beef, so I’ll try a different combination next time. The egg was a good addition, making the bites with yolk creamy and rich. The fried sides were also wonderfully crispy and tasty, though they were only warm. I came at an odd time, so I understand, but I can only imagine how much better the shrimp tempura and chikuwa would be if they were hot. Cozy atmosphere with cute paper lanterns. Good value and nice that a person can get whatever suits them! Service is very fast, to the point where I spent more time looking at the menu than waiting for my food!
Update: Karaage chicken is absolutely killer! It outshone the tonkatsu udon and shrimp shumai, which were both good, but the chicken was moist and flavorful beyond belief. I now know what the hype is about!
Update 2: The calamari and creamy udon are also stellar! Calamari is crunchy and light, making it a perfect appetizer. The creamy udon was also well worth the short wait. The lemon provided for the shrimp gave the creamy sauce that extra level to really take the cake. The fish eggs were also great, adding plenty of smoky umami and saltiness. I finished with taiyaki and it was wonderful. Crisp shell and gooey middle with a nice sweetness.

Great food. Neat ordering style. Great service. Average atmosphere.
You order at a kiosk and then add supplemental items (optional) and then pay your ticket at the end of the line with the cashier. It’s involved and cool. I like that you can see the prepared supplemental items right in front of you.
I would definitely recommend this place as a takeout place. You mix all the ingredients yourself, so it tastes very fresh. The eggs are made very well.
I ordered a pork curry with a side order of fried ball thing with squid. It was very good.
