Dashi-ya Roan, Umeda Sky Building

An udon restaurant located in Taki-mi Koji on the basement level of the Umeda Sky Building, known for its carefully crafted dashi and house-made thin noodles.

If you want to experience the essence of the shop, the Dashi Udon is a must. Freshly prepared every morning, the broth is made from aromatic Kochi-grown urume-bushi, mackerel flakes, and premium kombu from Hokkaido. Just before serving, ultra-thin 0.01-mm shavings of freshly shaved honkare-bushi are added at the counter, allowing you to enjoy a deeply fragrant broth with refined umami. The udon noodles are handmade every morning, with the dough blended by skilled artisans to suit the day’s temperature and humidity. Savor udon that embodies a commitment to freshly made noodles, freshly drawn dashi, and freshly shaved bonito flakes.

The menu also features a variety of adventurous options, such as curry udon made with a blend of 35 spices that balances richness and heat, and Maze-Jan Men-thin noodles tossed with sweet-and-savory minced meat, onions, sakura shrimp, and the restaurant’s original jan sauce.

In the evening, the restaurant also serves as an izakaya, offering a lineup of thoughtfully crafted small dishes, including dashimaki tamago topped with ultra-thin bonito flakes, premium sansho-seasoned fried chicken, and okaka-flavored French fries.

Relax in a modern Japanese space filled with the aroma of dashi, and enjoy carefully prepared dishes that are sure to satisfy both your heart and your appetite.
