Kome Shokudo - Richmond Hill, Ontario

Everything tastes like package food. We ordered the Niku Tama Udon ($14.99), the Niku Curry Udon ($12.99), and the Gyudon ($12.49). The curry tastes like straight up like those Japanese curry sauces that you get at the grocery store. The udon is just frozen packaged udon. When it comes down ... to quality it honestly tastes like something you can make at home. There’s nothing special about the food. Everything was overly salty to the point where you’ll be chugging water for the next hour. The only good thing about this place is that the portions are on the bigger side, but that’s about it.

I came here thinking it was a typical restaurant but you actually order at the counter and pick a table to sit in. A robot comes to your table with your food and you grab it yourself. I ordered the gyudon with scallions and hot spring egg. The gyudon was ... decent. My friend ordered the curry udon and that one looked really good. Read more

This curry udon, which is plain udon + curry sauce, cost $11+. The 4 miniscule pieces of pork katsu, which was paper thin, cost $4.5. I think the restaurant was too focused on their margin and 'forgot' there are many restaurants out there that offer much better value. Smart customers ... will eventually figure this out, so beware and good luck if you decide to continue to run your business this way... Read more

Fried squid was so so good. I had to come back the next day and got two portions of squid. Their other rice dishes and japenese snacks were really good too. Really reasonably priced.

I should probably go back to try their gyudon. I ordered their udon and takoyaki and it was average, good. For the price it wasn’t bad, but they do put the tempura in the udon so it gets soggy very quickly. I’m also not sure why they don’t serve dine-in orders ... on proper reusable plates and bowls. Only the udon is served in a ceramic bowl but gyudon and the takoyaki were served in take-out containers. There is also a robot server that serves you which I didn’t expect to see but entertaining nonetheless. Read more
