Humble udon spot thats well-deserving of its Michelin inclusion.nGot the NikuToji. The broth had a balanced flavour that wasn’t over- or under-powering. The beef brisket was extremely tender and rich, and the portion was generous!nSeating and decor is comfy and they have seating for singles or small groups.nI opted to go for their most popular traditional udon, but I’ll definitely be back to try their specialty udons!
Udon noodles were very good with a chewy texture. Had the mazementai, overall excellent, but I did find the flavors a bit unbalanced too strong to my liking. Service was a bit cold as well. I recommend the eggplant appetizer.
We were pleasantly surprised to be seated right away as there are no reservations available. The udon noodles were perfect. We ordered the Spicy TanTan noodles with a tempura egg and the NikuToji cold noodles. The Spicy TanTan noodles weren't overly spicy and the tempura batter was nice and light. The pork belly slices were thick. The brisket was plentiful with the NikuToji and was tender and delicious but a little salty towards the end. The mentsuyu sauce that accompanied it was also really good.
My family ate at Motonobu about 5 times in our 6 weeks time in Vancouver. The udon was exactly like what I could get in Japan. Just so you know how much we liked their udon, my family ranging from 3 to 80 years old were all willing to take the 40+min car ride one way just for a bowl of their noodle. Highly recommend it for any udon lovers to visit.
Udon noodle itself is pretty good! But the combination of mazementai udon tastes too complicated. I would say the beef brisket mix with creamy mentaiko and fire tofu was a bit of messy. However, the service it seems needs to be improved. I was sitting by a table with water split on the floor and the server seems not interested in attended to it, since that sitting area is really narrow, which is I have to step on the wet floor and I don’t really feel comfortable to this. No smile, and no checking if everything is okay. I mean if you want to try something new it’s worth to go but then for second time, I may need to reconsider
