About Yamashita Honki Udon

Founded by Interview Man Yamashita in 2012 near Meguro Station, Yamashita Honki Udon has become synonymous with high-quality Sanuki udon that prioritizes flavor and texture. After a licensing agreement in June 2017, the brand transitioned to being entirely owned by Garden Co., Ltd. They use carefully selected wheat, producing and maturing their udon in-house to achieve a unique chewiness.

The broth is meticulously crafted using kombu and katsuobushi, combined with a refined soy sauce that elevates the overall dish. In addition to udon, the restaurant also offers a selection of drinks for a relaxing evening experience.
With a growing presence across 21 locations, mainly in the Kanto region, Yamashita Honki Udon remains committed to expanding its footprint to bring the joy of “honest udon” to more people.
