Kyoto, Japan｜Kyoto Gion Okaru

Nice little udon cafe with a good amount to choose from on the menu. I'd recommend the curry base noodle's over the non curry because it has more flavor. They have a good amount of seating and the air conditioning is strong. Make sure to bring cash because they don't take any card payments.

The cheesy curry beef udon is delicious! Very rich, soft, flavorful and good with beer! This is a beautiful local small eatery frequented by locals. Highly recommend!

I guess it’s a pretty well know spot but we just went there cuz it was right by our hotel. Mostly locals dine here. They have an English menu. We had the curry udon and it didn’t disappoint. As other reviews mention udon was soft and not Al dente. But that’s personal preference, not a reason to give 4stars. Everything was great and service was fast!
