Review: Wow. As someone who is gluten free, this has felt like my first legit meal in Japan where the food does not suffer by being “gluten free”. It was so delicious I had to double check it was gluten free. Fantastic meal. Wish I went sooner in my trip.

Review: Great food, all gluten-free! You eat standing inside (maybe space for 12 people at a time) or there is a small table outside, but don't let that put you off - turnaround times are pretty quick. Order via a machine. Cheap and great food!

Review: We came here once for dinner & once for lunch while we were in Tokyo. As a celiac who has a peanut allergy and lactose intolerance this has been the safest meal I have had yet. The udon was delicious and no different to how I remember wheat udon. Definitely a great place to eat with a friend/ partner if they want to eat with you and not have to suffer some average gluten free foods. (Everything is gluten free but you’d never even know here). We ordered the curry udon, Dandan udon, wagyu special and mentaiko udon. All were amazing. The curry udon is almost a two birds one stone as most Japanese curries aren’t gluten free so you’ll get to experience that alongside the amazing udon noodles!

Review: 10000/10 gf udon noodles + gf tempura. Let me start off by saying that I’ve been gluten free for just under 5 years so I still remember what regular non gf noodles taste like and these are the closest noodles I’ve ever had to real gluten. They are delicious. I went back a second time and even got a to go order as well. I cannot recommend this place enough. Out of all the gf restaurants I’ve tried in my three weeks in Japan this is top 3. I hope the owner decides to open up more locations. This will be my first stop when I come back to Tokyo one day.

Review: This is one of those places that feels like a work of art. From the car put into making gluten free tempura and udon to the walls of Waraji plaster mixed with brown rice (genmai) As someone who does not eat gluten, they thought of getting to try udon and tempura in Tokyo felt like a pipe dream. In Japanese, this is called "e sora goto," or "painting in the sky," which is printed on the chopsticks. So happy a friend recommended this spot. It’s amazing!
