Taniya

Clearly a local restaurant rather than a tourist trap. Amazing selection of food items, including lots of vegetarian items (which can be tricky to find!). The staff were very friendly and accommodating and there was an English menu if needed, but google translate was also pretty accurate with the Ja...panese menu. Filling, delicious food and very reasonably priced!

The restaurant is located in Ningyocho area. Very close to Suithengumae Shrein. It’s located close to both metro stations. Easy walking through the nice neighbourhood. Mainly Japanese customers, little tourists, but they offer one English menu. This makes it easy to understand the different udon dis...hes and select your favourite meal. The staff is very helpful and food is prepared freshly at the bar. The tempura I tasted was really good, too. They offer the udon noodle in 3 different sizes (200g / 300g / 400g) included. If you still need more, there is a markup on the price for 500g. - I had the „chu“ size = medium. It is a good size. Inside seating is at the bar for singles or couples. They do have four tables in the back of the restaurant, serving 4 persons each.

Best Udon ever! I have tried a lot of udon all over Japan, but this one is simply the best. You can taste the freshness of the udon, the tempura is next level delicious and everything is freshly made in front of you. I am hard to please, but this udon restaurant is exceptional. Beside the hot kake ...udon I recommend the curry cheese udon. I wish I could take this restaurant home.

Easily the best Udon I have ever had. The bonus was some really great tempura to go with it. I had the tempura seafood with classic Udon and hot broth and it was about 10 dollars. The large portion was a bit much so I would recommend the medium for most people. This spot is a little out of the way b...ut we’ll worth the time. Very friendly staff that will bring you and English menu. The tempura was awesome. Highly recommend a visit.

We visited Taniya twice in our stay in Nihombashi Tokyo. The udon is made on demand, and you can certainly tell the difference! The times we visited (dinner, early) the restaurant was not that busy, and we got a seat for our group of 5 easily. You can order a small, medium, or large amount of udon... (all the same price). Cost wise, the dishes vary from 800 -1000 yen.
