From Google Maps reviews.
Having disliked Raku’s Washington Square location, I had low expectations, but this visit was rather pleasant. The udon has a chewy and springy texture, and the signature smoky flavor in the noodles and pork is very distinct. I particularly enjoyed the nabeyaki hot udon for its delicate, memorable flavors (I'd probably come back for it). The restaurant offers a clean environment and good service, creating a warm and comfortable atmosphere. High-quality ingredient sourcing is key for this nabeyak
Enjoyed a beautifully prepared bowl of udon. Deep, rich flavors at a very reasonable price, with a great variety of udon options to choose from. The interior, tableware, and overall service were all clean and well maintained, making the experience even better.
The nabeyaki udon was good. The dashi needs to be more flavorful. I would like it to have a katsuo dashi flavor in the dashi. My daughter’s seafood donburi was good too. The tatsutaage chicken was tasty. The dessert that we took home was very delicious. Overall, the food was good but the price was a little too high.
