Tried the vegetarian curry rice donburi here, mainly because it looked quite interesting. There are only a couple of vegetarian options, including an udon dish with broth and the curry, so the choice is fairly limited if you don’t eat meat. The food itself was fine, but I found the curry quite underwhelming and the portion was pretty small for the price. Maybe I’ve finally accepted that Japanese curry just isn’t my thing. I imagine this place makes much more sense if you’re coming for their non-vegetarian options.
Found this cozy Japanese udon spot in Midtown East. Tensai is known for their thick and chewy udon, and we tried both the shrimp cold udon and yakiniku udon along with a bunch of their small plates. The ube chips was definitely one of the highlights, and we also tried the karaage, uni croquette, and ika geso. We finished everything off with green tea mochi for dessert. Such a cute spot for Japanese comfort food in the neighborhood!
The udon here is satisfyingly chewy with a tasty broth. A very heart warming bowl of udon! Totally recommend!
Had Japanese steak with udon comes with broccoli and soy sauce based sauce - meat was not bad. Had don buri with niku beef. Came with poached egg and little obviously food colored daikon sticks. Was really good. Had seaweed salad that actually was h mart selling seaweed salad nothing modified. Disappointed. Price was about 7 dollars for little seaweed anyone can get as an instant banchan in nyc. White folks would love this place.
I’m vegetarian and ordered the vegetable udon with an added egg, along with a side of kimchi. The udon was delicious, with a light and flavorful broth and plenty of fresh vegetables. The egg was a great addition, and the kimchi on the side added a nice spicy and tangy kick. Everything was fresh and satisfying. Definitely a great vegetarian option! 🌱🥢
