Best bang for buck!! 💸 Been eyeing this place for a while but went in for the first time yesterday! They have udon (what flour), soba (buckwheat flour), rice bowls and bento sets. Here’s what we got : • Beef Udon (L - $9.80) • Beef Soba (L - $9.80) • Crab Claw ($2.80ea) • Takoyaki ($2.80ea) • Chicken Karaage ($3.80ea) • Fried Oyster ($3.00ea) We were very happy with both udon and soba - the portion size was great for the price. We got the large (L) size and that was quite filling. I loved the crab claw and the fried osyter. The takoyaki was nice but the karaage was a bit too dry. Highly recommend and I will go again to try the bento boxes because they looked nice! 🍱😍

3.5 ⭐️ - a nice go to for quick Japanese food! Been here for the last few years and quite sad that they've discontinued their peanut sauce Chicken and udon dish. Prices are definitely aren't as cheap anymore but you can select what extra ingredients you want

Absolutely delicious curry everytime. I had the hamburger curry and it didn't disappoint. Didn't expect to get screamed at by the staff at the front counter though. Set off my anxiety really bad. It wasn't normal Japanese food culture style, it was just SCREAMING at me and I'm still shaking writing this. One star 👎🏻

🇯🇵 I FOUND IT! 🇯🇵 After searching far and wide, I have finally found a proper Japanese restaurant. The food is very well priced and is expertly cooked with fresh ingredients leaving a flavor explosion with every bite! The staff are friendly and helpful. If you have a hankering for some tasty Japanese food and don’t want to break the bank, then Udonya Tokoton is my top recommendation. 👌

Really enjoyed our meals and experience here. You may feel like the queue is long outside from the entrance but the actual wait isn't so long as they serve your food straight away at the check-out rather than waiting for your order from your seat. All the food we ordered were great and loved their way of subtle self-serving atmosphere for customers. Think this reflects well on their reasonable pricing too.

Visited just after lunchtime rush. Quaint restaurant. Not the fastest service (although very friendly staff) however the food and price point make this place a 'must try'. With a variety of main dishes - meat and vegetarian - and a choice of rice, soba noodles, or udon noodles this place will undoubtedly have something for your palate (unless you're on a strict no-carb diet). There are a large number of options for added side dishes to compliment your meal, and a variety of drinks to wash everything down.

The menu here can be seen outside, but it is nicely displayed. It is a place where you can enjoy Japanese home-style meals without any burden. With buffet service, you can pass by in line and get your own food right away. It's not that the quality is bad either. It's crowded with a lot of customers, but I like this kind of atmosphere without fuss. This is a place that sells daily food, so if it's close, I want to visit every day.

Food is good, your interaction with the staff is pretty much just asking what food you want and paying, so that's why it's low rated. Issue is that for their Tuesday they advertise "free large upgrade". This is for medium meals going to large. The issue is that they just give you a bigger bowl sometimes and not more food. I get that it's free, but don't just give someone a bigger bowl, people aren't stupid.

Low price Average food Ladies at the counter are friendly, but one of the man in the kitchen is not. Me and my friend got a Eel Bento, Tuna Bowl (M), Tonkatsu Bento, sweet pancake and soft crab. All are average. Nothing amazing. Until I heard a staff(a man) coming out from the kitchen shouting "Curry XXXX", Its alright that you want to be loud so to let the customer hear you, but somehow its a small area, and he is shouting like we are in a Nightclub and we can actually feel the Anger when he shout out. Anw, whats more can I ask for with this price.

Been a regular for a while, great food at great value, no complaints. Bit of a wait sometimes because of the way the workflow is set up (you get your food before you pay) but the queue moves. Recently noticed they'd phased out the plastic spoons and cups for reuseable spoons and paper cups, and also swapped to paper straws, so extra kudos for that!

The beef Hamburg curry was delicious, bot of a line up was a good hint that this place was exceptional.

Great options for making you feel satisfied. Fresh ingredients and great services! Totally recommened 😉🥘🥚🥣🍱🍢🍤🍜

Ordered a large curry rice bowl to take home and grabbed a couple of the crabs balls. The rice bowl had no meat minimal veg the crab balls were cold like they had just been taken out of the refrigerator. Used to be one of my favorite places for a quick feed not going back here again.

I love this place to bits! It’s cheap and simple food but really heartwarming to me. My favourite is the mentaiko udon. There’s a good variety of sides to add onto your meal. It’s a tiny venue with very squished in seating on a busy day but if anything I think it adds to the feel.

Weekly Japanese go-to. The tantan mien with soup is amazing!! Love the udon with mince too and the karage chicken, fish cake and soft shell crab. It’s such good value for money. Tuesday nights is even better with free upgrade to large size. Our bill came to $34.

Food here was great with a good variety of noodles and rice dishes to choose from. The fried tempura options were good but nothing was amazing. I would return for a quick meal. Highly recommend the Udon noodles.

Great simple udon. I really love the spicy pork udon. Their fried prawn tempura makes a great partner with it.

Honestly by far one of the best udon place! Reminds me of Japan! Been coming here since uni and yet I still can’t believe how affordable it is! I normally order a Kake Udon with an Ontama and pick up a bunch of different tempura to go with the udon!

We had the beef curry bowl and spicy pork udon. Both were decent for the price and service was really fast too. There’s a range of side dishes available which you’re able to pick yourself. The shop is small but customers come and go frequently, good spot for a quick meal.

We finally found a Specialty Udon restaurant in Brisbane. TLDR; salty, slightly overcooked, can try. Not sure if I'll be back. Ordering style: Pretty similar to the ones in Japan and Singapore. The tempura items were not too specialty tho. The usual items like various veggie tempura such as, sweet potato, lady's fingers, onions, assorted fish cake, were missing. Menu: Quite an extensive menu, Udon, Soba, rice and curry options are available. They should try to streamline and focus on good quality udon. I think the quality of food will be much better. Price: Reasonably priced. Value for money portion size. Udon: Texture was overcooked for me. Good udon should have a bite, it should not be soggy and flaccid. Might be a one off thing. Broth: Too thick and salty. It was a notch below drinking shoyu directly from the bottle. If you've been to a few udon restaurants and kiosks in Japan, you'll know what I mean. Broth should be golden, clear and rich. Not salty rich but flavour rich. You can taste the layers of ingredients that made the tasty Broth. This, I feel is the most important part of a good bowl of udon. Meat: It was a Tuesday so we got an automatic upgrade from Medium to Large. Not sure how long this promo will last. But the portions were definitely value for money. Tempura: Batter is heavier than usual, you can tell that it's time for an oil change when it's too greasy. Takana was abit disappointing. Not as tasty as the other Japanese places in Brisbane. Mochi was a decent surprise. Very chewy skin and delicious cream filling. Will be back to give it another go. Hope the food will be better this time round. To be fair, I'm comparing it to the Japan and Singapore standards. But I'm sure they can do alot better. Had a healthy flow of customers. This place is surprisingly popular.

Liked the way the ordering line was created: choosing your meal, adding up your side dishes, grabbing your drink, collecting your food and paying. The prices were affordable, and the service was straight forward. The soba and side dishes were nice, but wished those side dishes were served hotter. The place was tiny, and it should be kept clean at all time.

Always my favourite go to for quick, simple, cheap Japanese food ! Every time I’ve gone there my meal has always been yum. Get the extra ontama egg to elevate your dish! Getting some soft shell crab, takoyaki or okonomiyaki is also a must !

I haven’t had Beef Soba before so unsure what it is like compared to others but I wasn’t a huge fan. It’s quite a plane dish and the noodle, beef, and broth quality didn’t feel amazing. The service setup (order at one side of the counter, carry and pay at the other, and then return trays at the end when finished) was a little weird and annoying. Not bad, some of the other dishes looked better but overall nothing special.

Cheap and delicious as usual! I always get the cheese hamburg curry with an onsen egg and it always hits the spot! Added on some chicken karaage seaweed tempura chikuwa this time. Karaage was great but the tempura was soggy so it was just okay.

Just had an epic meal at this Japanese joint – legit felt like I was in Japan. The flavors were off the charts. If you dig authentic vibes this spot's a winner!
