Raku Details PleaseOpen for indoor & outdoor diningWhat Our Friends Are Saying The Infatuation: "Raku also serves a long list of appetizers and rice bowls, many of which are solid - like the fried chicken or gyoza - but udon should be the primary purpose of your visit. Another key piece of advice is to go early, go during lunch hours, or go by yourself and try to get a seat at the bar."CN Traveler: "The lengthy menu at Raku can be a touch overwhelming for a first-time visitor. Remember: it’s all about udon here, so first decide if you want it warm or cold, then concentrate your efforts on that section. After you’ve made your choice, return to the appetizer list and select something that would pair well."

Find the city’s best udon noodles at Raku. Choose from toppings like wagyu or oysters and although udon noodles should be the focus of your visit, the apps are definitely worth sampling. Also, the bad news is you’ll more than likely have to wait for a table, but the good news is you can sip a quarantini while you wait.
