KOYA Bar in City of London, Westminster

Great lunchspot for udon noodles with cool view of the kitchen. There are very few covers so you will almost certainly have to queue, although we went at the end of lunchtime on a Monday so avoided too big a queue

The interior of restaurant made us hopeful about the food - unfortunately a HUGE letdown and felt it was a waste of £19. Ordered a bowl of chicken and vegetables udon (sounded promising on menu) which it really is a bowl of bland, salty broth noodles with 4 small pieces of stir fried chicken pieces and some raw leaves (bunch of rocket leaves and cabbages which was bitter) - it tasted bland and boring - I could whip up something better at home in 10 minutes. Biggest waste of money - the establishment should invest in improving flavour of your dishes rather than the interior!

Always a queue outside Konya Soho which shows its popularity. The wait is worth it and bear in mind that Konya can get very busy. Food was superb, we had the rabbit and autumn vegetables and the cod from the specials menu, very tasty. Also had the vegetable tempura, large pieces which would have been better if smaller. That said plenty of food, and atmospheric.

I popped in for breakfasts but was told I was too late despite the couple next to me having their breakfast being delivered and me seated just before the cut off. I settled for tempura udon which was perfectly acceptable however it should have been better than 'perfectly acceptable'. The portion size was on the small side (I am not a big person so do not need a bigger portion) and there was only 1 prawn tempura that had not been totally de-veined. The wait staff sat me right next to a gentleman on the corner of the bar meaning I leaned right over his food. I asked to be moved to the space further down but was refused as I was told this was for a two top which did not fill up the entire time I was there. Having me lean over him to eat must have been super uncomfortable for him, it certainly was for me. Could have been much better. To be honest, it should have been much better.

Small restaurant, so not easy to get a place. We had to wait but not too much and finallynthey sat us at the bar and served in a reasonable time. You can see how they cook from the bar. Everything was quite good and we found amduck udon specialy tasty. Everything for a reasonable price.

Worth the wait, a very simple service where they seat you at the bar providing a simple menu to choose from. The food order is taken quickly and brought to you pretty quickly also. The food is simple but somehow full flavour. The broth is light and rich but not overpowering, it's accompanied by great udon noodles. The mixed tempura dish served had a good number of large pieces. The tempura was very light and crunchy. We will definitely come back again

Such a lovely little place. Simple, traditional, extremely quick service. I would love to go back. I ordered Lamb Cumin miso Hiya-Atsu and my husband ordered chicken Kara-Age Don, Kakuni and Ozeki One Cup mini. The food was very good.

Nous étions dans le quartier vers 17h30 et avions vraiment faim. Nous avons été accueillis avec beaucoup de gentillesse. Nous n’avons pas dû attendre mais le restaurant s’est très rapidement remplis et moins de 20 minutes après notre installation, les gens faisaient la file pour pouvoir dîner. Ici, on mange « au bar » face à la cuisine. Nous optons pour des tempuras pour démarrer et sincèrement, probablement dans mon top 3 ! A goûter de toute urgence. Les Udon sont faites maison, le bouillon est délicieusement parfumé sans être trop salé. Les saveurs sont subtiles. Je vous conseille le thé japonais pour accompagner votre repas. Un agréable moment. Les prix sont raisonnables pour Londres. Malgré tout, nous ne sommes pas restés trop longtemps afin de libérer notre place pour ceux qui attendent devant la porte. Paiement uniquement par carte bancaire et réservation impossible. Je vous conseille ce restaurant juste avant une comédie musicale … c’est dans le même quartier !

My friend and I went here for an early dinner. We had to queue for a while to get inside (we were offered a seat outside, we decided to wait longer for inside seating). I ordered the homemade pickles and the tofu hot udon noodles, my friend had lamb katsu. My food was nice, very clean (i.e. no oils or heavily processed ingredients) which I like. My friend enjoyed the katsu curry sauce and rice but didn't like the lamb. I tried it and didn't like it either. It was very greasy and saturated in oil. I also ordered a homemade kombucha. I saw the large jar with the mother as soon as I walked into the restaurant so I knew it was the real deal. It was a bit sweet for my taste, but I like a very tart kombucha. The service was really good and our food was made quickly. All the staff were pleasant and polite. The atmosphere was homey and worth waiting in the queue for. In terms of price, it was very reasonable for Soho. I think the pickles were over priced - £5 is excessive for such a simple item - but the main courses were good value. Portion sizes were perfect, exactly enough to feel full but not so much as to feel stuffed.

We waited an hour (in the cold) to get into this restaurant - but it was worth it! It's only a small restaurant (probably just under 30 spots) and everyone is on a long bench around the cooking area, but if you want to experience authentic udon it's probably not far off what you see here. Udon noodles cooked in frothy boiling water for 16 minutes. Then they are removed and strained and wait in a wooden tray. When toppings are ready they go back for a warm dip before being removed via another strainer and go into a bowl. Then the all important broth, which has probably been brewing for hours, is poured on top. And then you get your fish, shrimp tempura or whatever toppings you've chosen. The result: delicious ramen, perfect texture and broth full of flavour but not too salty. Only downside - long queue and it's not a place to linger but if you want fresh udon noodles, then visit. Oh, the shrimp tempura is divine.

Average food but what a horrible lady at the entrance. We were 5 and waited outside for our table and she rudely stated that we won’t sit together. We had young kids but agreed as she won’t listen or pretend to care. If you need extra plates or cutlery then you are screwed as no one comes to you or makes any eye contact. I had my hand up and said excuse me a million times and still no one listened or came to me. So I got up and helped myself. It’s so shocking to have such a rude person at the door. The other gentleman was still polite and helpful. Food is Ok. Not sure what the hype is all about. Paid £130 for very average lunch with a nasty sever who was clearly out there to ruin your day. And we paid 13% service charge. I couldn’t even attempt to ask her to remove it or we would have got kicked out.

Last week I met my Son and we went for a meal at Koya Soho. He'd been a couple of times before but I'd not been. We had to queue which surprised me. Menu not over complicated and a good choice of Udon noodle dishes. We had starters and mains, all very delicious. Well worth eating here, as you can also see the kitchen activity in front of you. Only downside was that they only seem to accept two people or more at a time and not people on their own which was a bit odd. Cost isn't cheap but it's not at the high end. All in all a very good meal do worth a visit.

I went with my daughter, ordered tempura udon and kitsune udon and 1 apple juice. The bill was a whopping 35+ pounds. I understand the rent in Soho must be expensive, but still the udon dishes were not worth the price. The tempura sauce was too light and the noodles were way too big and thick and heavy. The balance between flour and water was not good, I dare say it was amateurish. Won't go again.

Abbiamo mangiato molto bene seduti al bancone. Il cameriere che ci ha servito ci ha consigliato bene. Ambiente piacevole, buon food, buona birra, prezzo onesto. Consigliato

Very short wait for 1 person on a Sunday night. Delicious udon, would come back. Had the hot vegetarian noodles - walnuts were a bit strange but dish had nice flavor.

First time here , very impressed with the flavour! Delicate and flavoursome,I look forward to trying further dishes ! It’s not fancy, don’t expect great customer service, but definitely a worthwhile spot if you don’t mind waiting a little while for a table .

Encontré este lugar hojeando EAST by Meeta Sodha anoche, buscando inspiración para cocinar. Ella recomendó los fideos udon para el desayuno de Kama Tama, así que vinimos esta mañana a tomarlos. Ambiente tranquilo y fácil un domingo por la mañana, nada bullicioso. Buen servicio. ¡Y definitivamente valía la pena venir al Kama Tama! Delicioso.

The soho one is way better than the bank. Koya has been my after school dining spot for a while. Must try selection: Tempura rice, pork belly.

昼も夜も行列ができているお店でした。並んだ分だけ期待してしまいましたが、麺はコシがなく、エビフライは天ぷらとは違うものでした。

Tempura batter was a bit doughy and undercooked during my lastest visit. Normally a better standard, possibly the chef was a bit rushed as it can get very busy. Shame if standards slip.

Consigliato da un amico e non ha tradito le attese, c'è un po' di fila fuori ma scorre veloce. Si mangia al banco e offre molte varietà di udon, per un pranzo buono e veloce è l'ideale.

Une cuisine délicieuse dans un petit cadre typique, juste en face des cuisines. Il faut patienter un peu car le restaurant est assez petit mais ça vaut le coup!

Love this place, and always go when I am in London. Tasty homemade udon noodles, and try the porkbelly with english mustard, it is fantastic.

いいお出汁のスープとコシのあるうどんが食べられる貴重な日本料理店だと思います。とても満足しました！お昼過ぎに行ったので比較的空いていました。

6年ほど前に行ったとき、とても美味しかった記憶があるので再訪しました。かつてはテーブル席だったのがカウンターのみになっていて、ラーメン屋さんのような店内。相変わらずの人気で30分近く待って入店しました。揚げだし豆腐と、豆乳のうどんを食べましたが、どちらも全然だしの味がしなくて…。揚げだし豆腐は生醤油の味しかしないし、うどんは味がなかったです。忙し過ぎですかね？

Fuimos aquí un fin de semana y tuvimos que esperar un poco.

ロンドン中心街にあるうどん屋さん。２度目の訪問になりますが、普通においしいうどん屋さんです。出汁も普通だし、うどん自体もしっかりしたものでした。

Ho mangiato qui durante il mio soggiorno a Londra, per me era una novità mangiare dei noodles , e devo dire che ne sono rimasta entusiasta. Il locale é piccolo e non accetta prenotazioni, quindi si va lì e si fa la fila. Non ci sono tavoli e si mangia al bancone proprio davanti ai cuochi, che una volta cucinato passano direttamente il piatto da servire ai clienti. Si mangia con le bacchette, non si cono posate, ma devo dire che nonostante al difficoltà iniziale poi sono riuscita a finire tutto il mio delizioso piatto di noodles. Consigliato vivamente non ve ne pentirete!!

A friend recommended this place, so I had to try.

This a small place with chairs to a bar. Service is fast. Allergy aware. Ramen and udon are both good. Reasonably priced.

We stopped for dinner in this place near Soho/China Town. It doesn't accept reservation so keep in mind there is a queue to be done (it is fast). Lovely tempura. Fair price.

Tuvimos que esperar un tiempo para sentarnos ya que había una cola pero las cosas se movían rápidamente. La comida era un poco cara pero definitivamente disfruté mi comida. La próxima vez creo que podría probar uno de los fideos udon fríos con caldo caliente.

Nous sommes allés dîner dans ce restaurant au cadre original : on mange sur une table unique qui entoure la cuisine. Petite file d'attente qui vaut le coup : le service est agréable, la nourriture franchement très bonne. Les quantités sont très copieuses et les prix sont très corrects.

Initially, I was not expecting much as I overheard other diners commenting "very typical Japanese restaurant". I was wrong! The udon was so delicious. It was fresh and chewy. The tempura is also a must. Loved how the batter was thin and crunchy (except for the shrimp). But my husband loved the texture of the shrimp tempura. Excellent customer service.

Restaurant - authentic Japanese noodle bar, adequate lighting, seated on a counter facing the kitchen. Excellent. Service - friendly and attentive. Food - lovely fresh udon noodles, tempura was excellent. Fantastic food overall.

Es un restaurante chiquitito con pocos lugares. Está lleno de asiáticos y la comida está fenomenal. Excelente recomendación para quienes les gusten los fideos.

Felt like I had been transported to Japan. The food took a while to come, but I didn’t mind because of the relaxed kitchen atmosphere and the quality of the food. The tempura was also delicious - light, crispy and didn’t taste greasy or oily.

Un très bon petit restaurant japonais. On est installé comme dans un bar et on voit les cuisiniers s'afferer. Les serveurs sont vraiment très sympathiques. Le service est rapide et les prix sont largement corrects au vue de la quantité et qualité ! Je le conseille vivement, c'est une bonne façon de goûter ou regoûter aux Udon, c'est nouilles au froment servie dans un bouillon.

I came here on a Sunday with a friend who recommended it to me, it is small and the seats are along the counter of the kitchen which happens to be my favourite seat!

We went to the one pop up Koya Bar at Victoria Market Hall. It was delicious and fair priced for the portion we received. It doesn't beat Okan, but it indeed produces some great dishes and is well worth a visit if you find yourself in Soho (or Victoria). Delicious and Acco, who is Japanese, does recommend it.

As my title suggests, this place is hidden along a row of shops. Find it and you wont regret stepping into the place. Food was prepared to perfection and even when the place was crowded the waiting time was impressive. Had the Gyukatsu(beef bowl with rice) and didnt regret it. Onsen tamago was poached perfectly. Keep it up guys. Will definitely return.

I’ve been here 3 times recently and every time the food has been outstanding. Sometimes you might have to wait for seats but for me it hasn’t been more than 10 mins maximum and it is so worth the wait. Good prices. Staff are very friendly and the place has a great atmosphere. By far one of my favourite places to eat out at.

Eat at the bar and watch the chefs prepare your order.

Cosy but overpriced. Had two noodles with miso, and very little meat. Plus two tempura shrimps and four pieces of tempura vegetable ... 40 pounds... too expensive, lousy service and crap chairs

Absolutely loved this place, it was quite the experience and the Udon was very clean and authentic tasting. Expect to queue especially if a Friday night but completely worth it! The ginger tea was awesome, as was the prawn tempura Udon!

海外で食べるうどんとしてはまあまあだと思います。ポーションもかなり多くお腹いっぱいになります！うどん以外のサイドディッシュも美味しいです。その中でもトウモロコシの天ぷらが特に好きです。でも作る人によって(?)大きい衣のダマなどがあり、微妙だなぁと感じる時もありました。

I went to Japan not long ago and have been wary of eating Japanese in the UK since. But the atmosphere and food were very authentic. My boyfriend and I came for dinner, and were excited about trying one of the rice bowls from the Donburi menu, however they were out, but we didn't mind as they had notified they were closing promptly for a staff party so it made sense. The waitress could have been a little more attentive as I had to ask the people next to us if they were definitely out of rice but the service was still nice and relatively efficient. We ordered Udon Noodle, Atsu-Atsu prawn and vegetable tempura, it was great and being able to assemble the dish yourself was very authentic. I was glad as my boyfriend hasn't had too much experience with Japanese food. None of the chef's were Japanese but clearly very well versed in the cuisine!

Popped in for a quick lunch. Design is clean and functional, like I imagine in Tokyo. Service was efficient and the taste seemed authentic - delicious and packed full of umami, for a reasonable price. Recommended.

We had been here for a special occasion due to my birthday. We arrived for lunch and despite the restaurant wasn't very busy, we received a very rude welcome from the waitress, who seemed to be really annoyed to welcome other guests. Nonetheless, we started our lunch with all good proposals but we didn't have the time to have a look to the menu that the same waitress was behind us ready to take the order. We just sat and with the menu closed. However we wanted to have a good lunch in this special occasion and we forgot about that and we order two hot plates as starters, which were super amazing and this is the reason why of my 4 stars. Again, when we finished, we were ready to order other plates and I asked to the same waitress for the menu. She brought us the bill and again without explanation or excuses. We were exhausted but we order an another plate. And here we are! During our tasting, the waitress asked to my sister to moved because she had to sweep the floor between us. At the end I saw the bill with an increase of 12% percent for the service charge. I service that would have been better if the waitress hadn't be there, so she was again very rude slamming my credit car on the table. We will never return.

I ordered the pork noodles and it was brilliant. Better than wagamama and some of the most authentic noddles I’ve had. My mother order the prawn noodles. The prawn was huge and very full of flavour. Would recommend. They make very authentic flavoursome food

Fui a almorzar y tuve que hacer cola un poco. El amable personal nos trajo a nuestros asientos. Hemos ordenado dos tipos de fideos udon. Los fideos eran gruesos y sabrosos. El caldo era muy agradable. Cuando terminamos nuestro almuerzo, vimos que uno de los chefs, la niña rubia, estaba probando el caldo de la sartén con una cuchara. Agregue un poco más de agua al caldo y vuelva a intentarlo con la cuchara que ya usó. No muy higiénico, por favor use una cuchara diferente la próxima vez. El personal es amable.

タイトルの通り、日本食がどうしても食べたくなったら行けば良いかと思われる。普段から通うには質的にも量的にも少し物足りない。ロンドンなので仕方ないと諦めるべきか、、、

Gran recomendación para un restaurante dedicado al Ramen en todas sus presentaciones. Te transporta a Kyoto con una comida de calidad.

Super soirée avec un partage de nombreux plats pour en goûter un maximum. Pas de fausse note, équipe jeune et efficace, ambiance chaleureuse et cuisine asiatique parfumée et délicieuse.

Fuimos aquí un fin de semana y tuvimos que esperar un poco.

Noodle is good but costly almost £10 per small bowl. Rice dishes are not good for pay over £12. Disappointing.....

Ottima esperienza in questo locale in zona soho-chinatown! locale tipico giapponese dove il loro punto di forza sono gli UDON in varie zuppe ( consiglio buta miso (con carne di maiale, oppure Prawn con gambero fritto). Può capitare di trovare fila, ma ne vale veramente la pena! Ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo!

Wie immer richtig gut. Hier gibt es grandioses Udon! Wir empfehlen, vor 18:30 Uhr zu kommen, da man ansonsten auf einen Platz warten muss. Es schmeckt einfach nur richtig gut! Ein Muss und wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder.

Koya, piccolo ristorante giapponese nel cuore di Soho, (ha di recente aperto anche un altro punto in zona Bank) propone tutti i piatti principali della cucina giapponese tranne il sushi. In un locale stra accogliente sullo stile dei ristoranti di Tokyo con un bancone molto grande con cuochi a vista, un menu di facile consultazione. Tra i cavalli di battagli gli udon, ovvero una sorta di ramen ma con spaghetti più grossi che si può scegliere se avere serviti direttamente nel brodo o a parte da intingere man mano proprio come si usa in Giappone. Tra gli altri piatti consigliatissimo l'uovo marinato (onsen tomago sul menu) e la pancetta di maiale caramellata con aromi (kakuni sul menu) e ottima anche la tempura. Il sakè viene servito in piccole tazzine carinissime e si può scegliere se berlo freddo o caldo. Tutti i servizi ovvero ciotole, tazzine e piattini sono originali giapponesi. Locale consigliatissimo anche solo per una zuppa calda, ovvero udon al volo per rinfrancarsi dal freddo. Io sono abituee ormai da anni e non mi hai mai deluso.

Located in Soho, it's a small restaurant with a no japanese chef but food is very good and real japanese. Attentive service, good location, feeling to be in Japan. Average price (we are in London), many clients and so time to wait in a lane to entry. Recommended.

Koya's focus is on udon and their menu ensures that the dishes are simple and hearty. As with most Japanese noodle places, expect to wait until there is seating (thus its best to come in small groups) before you get your food. They have very good cold and hot udon options for everyone.

We arrived at 10:20pm been told close at 11pm, but never mentioned last order time so assumed as long as we can seat before 11 then we can get fed. We were the 3rd table waiting to get in so we decided to wait. However at 10:55 even table now available they won’t take any order and 2 more group of ppl behind us. We were really shocked how they treated us. They should simply set a last order time to avoid wasting ppl time.

Basta varcare la porticina di questo splendido locale per trovare tranquillità e serenità dalla caotica Soho. Koya e la sua proprietaria giapponese servono degli ottimi udon in molti modi diversi, oltre ad altre piccole specialità giapponesi a poco prezzo. Mangiare al bancone poi è ancora meglio. Cosa chiedere di più?

Not sure if I understand the hype. Nice udon noodles but nothing spectacular. A bit overpriced I think.

Lovely little restaurant, cosy, good service and nice food. Service was fast and efficient, we had a veggie and a prawn donburi’s with ginger tea and both served with miso soup.

Koya bar is one of my favourite restaurants to visit in London, and I don't even like Udon very much!

Due to the various positive reviews we decided to give this restaurant a try. The choice of dishes are sufficient to meet any taste, allergies and vegetarian desire. The noodles are of good quality. The tempura coating was a bit thick for my liking. What anyone needs to be prepared for is the overall price for the meal. It isn’t cheap even for London.

Getting good authentic Japanese food in London is often difficult but Koya does not disappoint. Every single time I’ve been here has not disappointed. Love their tempura udon and their variety of side dishes.

Koya is a small Japanese restaurant that specialises in udon. There are many varieties, in hot and cold soup. There was a long queue on a sat evening but it was worth the wait. My tempura udon was tasty.

Ein sehr schöner authentischer laden. Man sitzt an der langen Theke und schaut bei der Zubereitung zu. Wer Abends kommt, muss extrem lange warten, um einen Platz zu bekommen. Ich empfehle, am späten Nachmittag zu kommen. Da kann man die udon Suppe und die lockere Atmosphäre genieße. Sehr zu empfehlen!!!

Not a brought me an impressive taste of Japanese food. The It in noodle was tasty, duck was delicious and tea was nice. The restaurant is too small, but quite affordable

Quasi senza insegna. Due pezzi di stoffa all’ingresso. Un lungo banco con sgabelli all’interno. Ti siedi e mangi noodles, zuppe e tempura molto buoni. I miei ragazzi erano meravigliati dal fatto che l’acqua è gratis (incredibile no?). Cordiale e cortese tutto il personale. Tutto a vista. Un simpaticissimo ferragosto nipponico con un ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo.

Best place in London for Udon. A great choice of Udon, excellently prepared for a perfect lunch time dinner. Reasonably priced, great quality, excellent add on's. First place in Europe with fresh Edamame! Will come back next time in London.

Authentic dishes and interior design, gorgeous dishes and not expensove either. What a gem to find in the middle of a bustling London!

Muy bien situado (en pleno Soho) sirven ademas de un excelente ramen muchos platillos para introducirse en los Izakaya (tabernas Japonesas donde sirven tapas) Muy recomendable

Small restaurant located in Soho. Does not accept reservations. Can get busy and can feel a little cramped, party as all seating is at the 'bar' where food is served directly to you. Food choice was very good, with a decent choice of options for vegetarians. Drinks more limited but sufficient enough - would recommend the beer. Food was piping hot and very tasty. Let down was the bill - pricey for what it is. Two mains, a couple of sides and a beer = £47!

Textura udon estaba bien. La sopa no era nada especial. El tempura de gamba tenía mucho

Our family was able to getaways right away at the counter seating. We each ordered something different and everyone was satisfied. My item was the cold udon noodles with tempura vegetables. Also tried the homemade lemonade- very good only wished it was larger.

Oh mi dios! Fui con un amigo mío que me dijo "Yo sé el mejor restaurante japonés en el mundo" (con la excepción de Japón: P) y él no estaba mintiendo. Nunca había encontrado los gustos y sabores antes. Bocados de felicidad. Es una buena razón para volver a Londres, jaja.

Enjoyed the evening with family. Was celebrating my son’s birthday who absolutely loved it . Nice flavours

Udon was well done and the soup base, oh-so-good! It was the perfect comfort food for the chilly London weather. Cozy bar seating with a good selection of udon! Worth visiting if you’re in need of something light and soupy!

Lugar adorable japonés conocido por sus fideos udon. La primera impresión fue genial. Interior era preciosa, me sentí como en Japón! Puede ver los chefs preparan y cocinan delante de mí.

He estado en Koya dos veces y haber sido muy insuficiente. La atmósfera es inexistente y te sientes como si estuvieras en una biblioteca en lugar de restaurante del centro de Londres. Toda la noche el servicio era increíblemente lento con personal unengaged. Pedimos una gestión a través del menú y especiales, la camarera era muy impreciso y no ofrece recomendaciones. La comida era sosa y no tenía sabor profundo. Pato con sólo faltaba Udon, caldo, fideos y amigas, carne recocida. Toda la fiesta fue derramando el chili en los platos para sazonar añadir algunas sabor. En mi opinión, extremadamente caro, a menos de media comida y personal unengaged.

Nach zwei Jahren waren wir wieder einmal in der Koya Bar in Soho zum frühstücken (Udon-Nudeln mit süßem Tofu). War wieder super lecker und auch der Filterkaffee war gut, obwohl man normalerweise grünen Tee in einem japanischen Restaurant zum Frühstück trinken sollte. Die Koya Bar öffnet schon um 8:30, so dass dies auch eine gute Adresse für den Abfahrtstag war.

Service souriant et bien organisé malgré l'affluence, bonnes soupes et udon bien que servies quasiment sans légumes et avec très peu de viande. Le bouillon est néanmoins exceptionnel. Prévoir d'arriver tôt car il y a toujours la queue.
