About

Omen is known for fresh, chewy udon served hot or cold with seasonal vegetables, dipping broth, and table-side spices; reviewers especially like trying spice blends #3 and #8. It’s a traditional, busy stop near Ginkakuji with an English menu and vegan choices, though guests may wait for a table and one reviewer found the prices a little high.
