Udon Honjin Yamadaya Main Branch

Best by far. Thickness and chewing texture. It was really busy during lunchtime, but waiting was pathetic (about 15min) they have plenty of space and very efficient. Food came within 5min. It was so good that we bought the Take away Udon!

Probably one of the best Udon restaurant on the planet! This flagship icon is popular with locals and visitors. It is located on a hill, so you probably need to drive, or it is not easy to reach via public transport. The menu consists of different set combination of Udon and pages; House Special is the way to go if you don't know what to order. The Udon is perfect. I visited lunch during the weekday and there was no queue (Lucky). Must try if you're in town!

Yamada-ya has amazing Udon that is thick and chew with a delicious broth. It is a very popular place that often has a line, but service is fast and there are many seats available so that waiting is not long. The building is a large traditional Japanese house with a garden in the middle, so it is a beautiful atmosphere. There is also a large parking lot.

One of the best Udon noodles in Takamatsu city. Noodles and soup combination is perfect. A little amount during lunch and location not so easy without car, but worth it!

Udon wasn’t my favorite food until I’ve tried it at Yamadaya shop. This is simply the best udon that I’ve ever tried in my life. Takamatsu is famous for udon. It is the origin of udon in Japan. There is even a udon tour bus that travels around udon shops. This yamadaya udon place is about a hundred years old. You can not only taste super chewy udon but also enjoy great beauty of the garden. It’s not that hard to find this udon shop. You’ll see many signs written on the telephone polls on your way to the shop.
