About

Omen Nippon serves chewy udon hot or cold, with a separate vegetarian/vegan menu featuring vegetable tempura and a vegan broth; its standard dashi contains bonito. The traditional wood-lined noodle restaurant is casual, and reviewers often mention quick service once seated, though queues can form outside.
