this has been my go-to udon spot for years -- it's so good, I almost want to gatekeep it my favorite dishes from here are the curry udon and their udon tsukumen the only downsides are that the inside is a bit small and they have limited hours but it's a place I find myself always going back to read more

Uzumakiya - Beef Curry Udon - Ramen Near Me - Cupertino, California

Came here on a Saturday night and was seated immediately. Ordered and food came out fairly quickly. The aburi shime saba was fantastic and easily my favorite dish of the night. Caramelized sugar gives the fish an interesting texture and great flavor, sweet and savory paired well together. The fish is served along with other accoutrements. Ended up trying the oxtail udon, broth was flavorful but a bit greasy, and the oxtail was quite fatty. Meat was tender but still required quite a bit of effort to pull away from the vertebrae. Noodles were cooked well and had a good bounce to them. I don't think I would order this again. My partner enjoyed her dipping udon, but I don't think this spot is for me. read more

Solid spot for udon!! This spot has always popped up on my Yelp search bar so I was excited to finally try it. There were a lot of positive reviews about their oxtail udon, so that was a no brainer to order! My BF and I came in for an early weekend dinner and was met without a wait. It didn't seem to get too busy during the duration of our visit. They have a huge parking lot so that wasn't an issue. The food we tried: + Spicy Oxtail Udon (4/5) (~$26): This was really good! I liked how bouncy the udon noodles were. The oxtail was really tender too. I really enjoyed this but over time I did feel like the broth was reminiscent to a more flavorful "Cup Noodle" broth (still good tho) + Aburi Shime Saba (4/5) ($18): Delicious! They only serve 10 of these a day. The fish tasted fresh and I liked how the skin provided a nice sweet contrast. + Hamachi Carpaccio (4/5) ($18): This was also delicious!! Super good with the ponzu and ikura on top. Service was fast and quick! read more

Been meaning to try this place and lucky we did because they were just a few days away from turning into a Ramen shop! The service and energy was a little chaotic bc of the changeover happening. They were out of a lot of things we wanted. The karage was good. Moist, plump and nicely fried. The Udon was delicious. Noodles were great and the broth was very clean and flavorful. read more

I think the food here is delicious. The only dislike I have is the amount they give for the price. I got the Uzumakiya udon (~$18) which comes with oxtail soup, cha shu, bok choy, and lotus root chip. I thought the broth was soo delicious and I love how they used oxtail broth. It's quite unique imo. Chashu was also delicious. I also love that the lotus roots added crunch to the dish. The issue was the portion size. They gave me exactly one leaf of bok choy and like two chashu pieces. I was definitely still hungry afterwards. Other than that, I loved the place and I want to try more of their items. Service was good and fast. No wait time read more

Uzumakiya - uzumakiya udon - Ramen Near Me - Cupertino, California

Oxtail udon soup - very fatty and heavy. Not the traditional udon but it's an interesting dish. The fried lotus pieces give it a good crunch. Chicken kaarage: crispy and comes with a mayo sauce. The spicy one is the same except with the chili powder. Calamari: made with larger tentacles which is unique. Pretty good but smaller portions. Service is good. Ambiance is busy and bustling. read more

They'll slip you the check immediately as you finish your food to make space for the next customers.

Whuttt i can't believe i hadnt been here before! It has actually been in my bookmarks for awhile but never got to stop in! I tried to come for lunch once but they were just closing. They lunch time window is a bit small bit their dinner hours are a bit longer. Came here Sat 6pm ish for dinner and it was pretty empty (guessing due to Superbowl weekend). Was very glad no wait. Simple interior with alot of seating space. I ordered the oxtail udon and the saba along with the salad and umami edamame to start. The salad was so fresh and u can tell their washed the leaves. The sauce they put on top is nice too, asian dressing taste. The edamame was cooked well and the umami seasoning was unique and tasty. The oxtail udon was the star for me. First sip and i was like whattt. It is a peppery rich broth but doesnt taste too salty or oily. I loved the fresh bok choy and the fries lotus adds another layer of seasoning flavor. There was also plenty of oxtail fall off the bone meat! 2 big pieces and some chasu like pieces as well. All soft and tasty. The noodles were so bouncy and chewy and nice! Overall the tastiest udon i had for awhile. Def elevated than marugame. The saba was served as a cold fish and it was perfectly cooked and was tasty as well! I like the lemon and radish and little mustard sauce that comes with it. Overall happy i finally found this place and recommend! read more

I love their udon! They had (keyword: HAD) the best udon in the Bay Area, but they recently changed their menu to only serve ramen, no more udon. The five stars is for the udon. The ramen is so-so. There are so many ramen spot within a 5 mile radius, so I'm confused why they would decide to go into competition with so many better ramen places. They were unique in that they served really good udon...much better than Marugame. Please bring back the udon! read more

I came here with some friends after work. The plaza here has a lot of restaurants and a good size parking lot with spots. This restaurant can be busy. Tried their wa-dashi potato fries, chicken karaage, uzumakiya udon and oxtail udon. The wa-dashi potato fries were good, had bonito flakes on it with seasoning and flavor. The chicken kaarage was good, nothing too exciting but tasted well with their tartar sauce. The two udons are pretty much the same, the uzumakiya udon comes with oxtail broth, beef chashu, lotus root chips, bok choy and mixed onions. The oxtail udon comes with all the items that the uzumakiya has but add in some oxtail meat. The broth had nice umami flavor, which went nicely with the udon and the toppings that came with it. The oxtail meat could have been more tender as some pieces were hard to chew off easily. Portion sizes aren't too big so recommend ordering something additional to the udon. Overall, definitely recommend trying their udons! Never had an udon with oxtail broth before. read more

Still my favorite place for oxtail udon, in fact, even for just regular udon! It's been 3 years since my last review and I've dined here at least a dozen times since. The quality remains the same albiet the prices have increased slightly. My go-to is still their "oxtail udon" which includes the actual oxtail bone section and tender meat. They also offer the Uzumakiya udon, which uses an oxtail broth but comes with beef chashu instead. The broth is so delicous and flavorful that it's hard not to slurp it up afterwards. I'm sure my sodium levels are through the roof :) Over the summer they added a chilled ikura udon which my friend tried and said was pretty good. I love that their chicken karage is served in a mini fryer basket. While it's still a popular restaurant, it's much easier to get a table now than it was a few years ago. We're usually seated within 5-10 minutes these days. The dining room feels nice and spacious, the staff is always welcoming, and the food comes out fast! Plenty of parking in this neighborhood stripmall! read more

First time I came for lunch and second time I came for dinner. The restaurant interior is mid, small, and cozy, so it gets packed quickly but wait time is not long. Service is okay. Came for their noodle and broth and it was good, 4/5 stars. I would pass on their salad, 3/5 stars, as it was very plain tasting with a hefty price. I recommend their fish, as I liked the way they prepared it, 5/5 stars. Price is bit on the pricy side for what you get, but not bad. read more

Went here for a family dinner, it has a nice ambiance, but it wasn't anything that special. My friend hyped it up so maybe I was expecting more, but if you're just looking for a decent udon meal this place will suit you. I'd prefer Marugame though, and it's cheaper too. The karaage was probably the best part, but you can get that anywhere. Dashi fries tasted like they were from frozen, but the dashi and dipping it in the karaage sauce helped. The saba was also pretty good. I got the spicy uzumakiya udon and the broth honestly didn't taste like much. My brother got the oxtail udon which for some reason had a bit of a richer broth, and the oxtail was tender, but I wouldn't say it was worth the extra $9. read more

Uzamakiya Udon Izakaya is quickly becoming one of our family's favorite restaurants. We came here on the recommendation of some friends who raved about the seared saba dish, Aburi Shime Saba, which absolutely lives up to the hype and has become a must-order every time we come. They claim on the menu that they only serve ten orders a day though so make sure to get here early in order to try it! Their tempura is excellent, though a quick word of warning, the last time we ordered the shishito peppers we got an incredibly spicy batch that left me and my low spice-tolerance sweating and in pain for almost 10 minutes. They also do an excellent karaage and I can personally vouch for their Karaage Curry Udon as an excellent entree option. All in all this place is great and its only flaw is that it isn't closer to our house! read more

First impression of this place was a hit. My husband and I were craving udon and saw this place had loads of raving reviews, and now we understand why. The choices that they have in comparison to other standard udon places are just unique. The oxtail broth for the Uzumakiya Udon was a game changer. So much flavor is packed into the soup than what I was used to. I completely finished my whole udon bowl including the soup. I was interested in getting the oxtail meat with it, but from reviews I've read, it did not seem worth $25, so I opted for it without. My husband ordered the cold creamy dipping udon which he loved. I enjoyed it too, but I was feeling more of the soup that day. We just loved the udon options available. Service was great, likely because we were literally the first patrons in and out of their dinner service, but I could tell it was easy for them to get quite busy if we'd gone during primetime dinner hour. The restaurant isn't huge, but they have a decent amount of space for maybe 60+ guests to seat? Might be less, but either way, this is definitely a place to try and we'll definitely be back at some point whenever we're in the area! :) read more

Udon noodles were really great. Perfect texture. However, I ordered the udon with oxtail and for the price point, I kind of expected at least two pieces of oxtail. The chashu was tough. The broth was also really salty. It was an okay bowl of udon. I don't think I'd come back. read more

My favorite udon spot in the bay! I come here often with family and friends and their service and quality is always on par. The restaurant is small so I usually try to come earlier to make sure I don't have to wait for a table. Our favorites are the spicy uzumakiya udon, tempura udon, and tsuke udon. For apps sometimes we'll get the edamame or the chicken karaage. Their broth is flavorful and rich while their noodles are just right, with the perfect chew. Perfect meal for a cold winter day. Can't wait to be back! read more

I haven't posted this review because I'm feeling really conflicted about this restaurant. Go-tos: Spicy Uzumakiya Udon Aburi Shime Saba Food-wise, everything is very good. But if you factor in the price, it's hard to justify. It feels more like eating a bowl of soup with a side of meat rather than a full, balanced meal. Both of these dishes are my favorites and absolute musts every time we come here. I crave this place probably once a week. The soup for the spicy udon gives me Shin Ramen vibes, but not exactly.. it's just so addicting. The broth has specks of fat on top, and it comes with two thin slices of meat (I think brisket?), one piece of bok choy (it used to be two), and fried lotus root slices. I recommend asking for the lotus root on the side because they get soggy really fast since they're sliced thin. The udon noodles aren't thick like frozen store-bought ones, so I think they might make them fresh here. They're chewy and perfectly cooked, though I'm not sure if that's confirmed. The Aburi Shime Saba is also amazing but limited to only 10 servings a day, so grab it if you can. It's lightly seared: somewhere between cooked and not cooked and comes with a mustard dipping sauce that pairs perfectly. The crispy, sugary topping on the mackerel adds a nice contrast. Honestly, it's one of the most unique appetizers I've tried. That said, the price and portion don't quite align. The Aburi Shime Saba is $17.50, and the spicy udon is $15.75 ($16.75 with the spicy add-on). For that, you're getting two thin slices of meat (half of it fat), one piece of bok choy, and a few fried lotus roots. It's definitely delicious, but not the best place if you're looking to leave super full. read more

My friends took me out to dinner for my birthday at Uzumakiya Udon Izakaya. I had high hopes based on the menu, but the food was kind of bland and the portions were small. We started off with a karaage chicken appetizer. It had an interesting mustard dipping sauce. I tried the namesake Uzumakiya Udon, my friend got the spicy version of the same, and my other friend tried the namesake Beef Don bowl. The tables and people were packed in tight, and it was hard to hear each other talk. While it was very nice of my friends to treat me to dinner, it wasn't a great celebration for my taste buds and stomach. We had to get a snack after since we weren't full. Maybe we needed to order a bunch of appetizers, but we did get the namesake udon & rice bowls, so we expected them to be raveworthy. read more

My family's regular udon spot for after the farmers market! Definitely our favorite place. I always order the Spicy Uzumakiya Udon and the Dashi Fries. Udon noodles are a good mix of chewy and soft, with flavorful broth and a bit of a kick. Dashi fries come out freshly cooked and crispy with bonito flakes on top, always a favorite. The service is very friendly and prompt. The inside has a cozy ambiance with chill music playing! Very comfortable for a meal. read more

One of my favorite spots to get Udon!!! UZUMAKIYA UDON AND SPICY CHICKEN KAARAGE ALWAYS HITS SO GOOD - Spicy UZUMAKIYA udon : The broth is flavorful and spicy. Each sip of the broth makes me feel so good to be alive and you can taste how long the oxtail broth has been simmering for. The beef chasu is tender and soaks up the flavors of the broth so well. The noodles are long and perfectly chewy. I love that they top off the dish with lotus root chips because it adds extra texture and the flavor of them is so goood! - Spicy chicken kaarage : Each bite you get a good crisp on the outside and well cooked chicken on the inside. Not sure what type of batter and oil they use for the outside skin but it's so good. It comes with homemade tar tar sauce to dip the chicken in and it taste like a premium tar tar sauce. I highly recommend trying this combination out! This was also my first time sitting at the bar because usually I sit at the tables but still a nice experience. We came around 7pm on a Friday and did not have to wait too long. Our food probably took about 10-15 minutes to come out. The staff are friendly as well and I love the vibes inside. My other favorite udon place that's budget friendly is Marugame udon but the broth here is much more complex so I'm willing to pay a bit more for it. Also next door they have TP tea so you can get some good boba tea after :D read more

The udon here is good, but the prices make it hard to justify returning. Service was fast and friendly, and we were seated quickly even as a group of seven on a Saturday evening, which I appreciated. The oxtail broth is delicious and the toppings feel thoughtful and elevated, but it was surprising to see an upcharge of about $10 for a bowl with only one or two pieces of oxtail compared to the uzamakia udon. The noodles themselves are fine and slightly better than standard grocery store ones, but overall the experience did not feel worth the price for me. read more

Came by for lunch the other day and it was a tasty experience. Parking is plentiful in the private strip mall parking lot. Dining is indoors exclusively and the restaurant had plenty of seats upon arrival. Started off with the anago tempura and it was lightly fried and served with a tasty dipping sauce. Moved on to the spicy oxtail udon and it was fantastic. The udon noodles were cooked perfectly and the oxtail was super tender. I loved the other accoutrements that complemented this bowl. Service was cordial by the staff. ~$29/head after tax and gratuity for lunch read more

Always love coming here! Hands down, one of the best udon spots in the Bay-- if not the best! Broth is always so flavorful and consistent! The oxtail is cooked to perfection and falls right off the bone, and the noodles have great texture and are so bouncy! The staff are always very welcoming and attentive! The restaurant is very family friendly as well! Although I'm disappointed, they either no longer serve the Unagi Tempura, I will still continue to come back here! read more

Uzumakiya - Ramen Near Me - Cupertino, California

Decided to come here on a weekday evening for dinner and we were immediately seated. The shop itself is quite small yet cozy with cute drawings from presumably kids and community members on the entrance wall. I ordered the oxtail udon, priced at $24 and there was also a summer special chilled ikura udon that another member of my party tried. The serving for the oxtail dish didn't seem that big when it arrived but it was very filled because of how large the oxtail portion was. Very silky, flavorful broth and decadent from the rendered fat of the oxtail. I also ordered the house blend chili powder for an extra $1 and it was a nice addition to the udon. A but pricey, not sure I would get it again but worth a try. I tried a bite of the chilled ikura udon as well and it seemed like a pretty typical udon in a soy sauce based broth. Refreshing and light with the slightly briny burst from the ikura. Service was quick and it's just a laid back spot for udon. Not as hectic as the other udon shops around which I appreciate. Would love to try their curry udon when I have the chance to come back again! read more

If you love Udon, you'll have to give this location a try! They have different sizes ; depending on your hunger and at great prices! My favorite is the kitsune!! It comes with their sweet fried tofu. I love that they have their menu up on the wall so you can review their different dishes. They also have a to-go area when you need it (they can also package separately or have it all together, separately is really helpful when you're taking it back to work). You can also pick up sides like tempura veggies, shrimp, chicken Katsu pieces. I think they are a little pricy though for single items. I enjoy that they have a water/ ice machine, and a large eating area. They also have outside seating. It can get busy, but there's so much space it doesn't feel too overwhelming. Workers are friendly. read more

This place was a recommendation from my friend who is a SJ local, and it did not disappoint! Came here around 6:30pm and there was no wait. It's a cozy noodle spot located in a plaza with ample parking, at least when I was there. Me and my girlfriends got seated right away and was able to order pretty quickly. We shared fried octopus as our appetizer, and we each got our own udon dish. I got their udon tsukemen, which comes with a piece of chashu, some greens, chili oil, and their dipping sauce. The noodles itself had a very silky and chewy texture, and the sauce was more of a concentrated clear broth. I never had udon in the form of dipping, so it was a fun experience to try! I would love to come back and try their other options, especially their oxtail udon. It's not the cheapest place, but a nice treat if you're craving something warm on a cold evening. This is one of the few places I know of that offer a gourmet udon experience compared to a fast-casual spot like marugame. read more

This place definitely hits the spot when it comes to a quality bowl of udon. I got the uzumakiya udon with oxtail broth and the broth was clear! I had added spice to it for extra charge and I personally think that it was worth the extra. It adds a kick to the broth that is just unmatched by regular broth. The flavor depth was so profound, I don't know if I can ever not get oxtail broth anymore. The udon was al dente and wasn't the usual round, cylindrical udon. They were the flatter type. The beef chashu was good and I added a poached egg which was the perfect touch to this delicious bowl of noodles. Next time I am for sure coming back to try their dipping udon. read more

Uzumakiya - Spicy Uzumakiya Udon - Ramen Near Me - Cupertino, California

Their most well known dish is their Oxtail Udon, but they have some other really great items on their menu that are definitely worth coming for! While their udon is great, I actually really love their Aburi Shime Saba appetizer! They only offer 10 servings per day, so if you're lucky enough to get your hands on one, this is a must! The saba is cured and then seared, so it has both a slightly pickled or vinegared flavor but is also a little smoky. There's also a slight shell-like coating on top that's sweet and creates just a sight crunch. It comes with lemon to squeeze on top, along with sliced green onions, wasabi, and a dipping sauce that is tasty and refreshing. The fish is served over a bed of daikon. Overall, it's such a fantastic dish! The Green Salad isn't too fancy, but it's a pretty big portion! I really like the homemade mushroom dressing that it comes with. I was craving tsukemen, so I tried their Utsuke (Udon Tsukemen) dipping udon. It comes with a bowl or beef and dashi based broth with sides of house made chili oil and grated ginger that you can add to the broth according to your taste. The udon comes with chashu, bok choy, and lemon that you squeeze onto the noodles. The broth itself is pretty rich, but since you're just dipping the noodles into it, it coats the noodles with just the right amount of flavor. There are also chunks of beef in the broth! I also tried a bite of the Tan Tan Parco Udon which is a little spicy. The broth is unique in that it has sesame and peanut paste which changes the texture of the broth a bit. This udon has fried chicken in it, so the chicken does get a bit soggy over time. It also has bok choy, mixed onions, and their specialty chili oil on the side. read more

This place really caught my eye as its name included the last name of a famous anime character. This place usually has a line, but I came to dinner pretty late; so my party of 2 was seated right away. This restaurant specializes in udon, but don't expect it to be a fast food kind like Marugame. Chilled shabu shabu udon (5/5): This was something that I've never tried and it caught my eye. The udon is cold and you dip it into a creamy sauce. The noodles were bouncy and perfectly chilled the sauce. The sauce was creamy and refreshing at the same time. The flavor was mild and marinated the udon fairly well. The sauce was a bit sweet and packed with umami flavor. Black Pepper Calamari(5/5): Surprised this came as a whole squid. I highly recommend this as an appetizer. It was crispy and very tender. The lemon provided this acid that really enhances the flavor. I want to come back and try the soup udons. read more

Tempura Udon Delicious assortment of tempura. The udon reminds me of what I had in Kyoto a few years ago which warms my heart. The noodles are soft but not over cooked. The broth is light but flavorful. And the assortment of Tempura added a nice variety to the dish. I ordered a side of lotus root chips but ate half of the chips before my udon even came out. Oops. But they are so tasty! The fries are topped with bonito flakes which adds a nice saltiness to the fry. The shishito pepper tempura are battered in tempura batter so they were crispy which was fantastic. The service here was very attentive despite having a full front of house (all the tables had people sitting at them).

If there's one place to gate-keep, it'd be Uzumakiya. You absolutely cannot go wrong with their oxtail udon. From the hearty broth, to the chewy noodles, to the tender oxtail, it's simply perfection and always consistent! We've also tried the spicy oxtail udon, and I'd say the original is better. The spicy one reminded me of the shin ramen seasoning which overpowered the oxtail notes. We've also tried the Aburi Shime Saba, shishito peppers, and karaage for appetizers before, and all were great. We usually like to come 10 mins before opening to ensure we get a spot, as this place is small and fills up quick. I love how they play Japanese music here, like songs from Demon Slayer!
