The best udon in Toronto consists of thick wheat noodles, served in a hot broth, pan-fried or coated in a rich sauce. The popular Japanese noodle can be found on the menu at several Toronto restaurants and though it is most popular submerged in a tasty, rich umami broth, it can be served stir-fried or in a curry as well. A piping hot bowl of udon soup might sometimes get overlooked by ramen or pho but there are plenty of fantastic options for udon in Toronto.
Below is a list of the best udon in Toronto.
