" It's a small cozy place that feels very genuine. I loved the agedashi tofu and the udon was good too, although not the best I've had. It was a bit empty when I visited, which was nice, but it left me wondering why this lovely spot wasn't more popular. Would recommend trying their specials! " (*Curated Review*)

" Must try for anyone looking for delicious and authentic Japanese food! The atmosphere reminded me of a small restaurant in Tokyo, complete with friendly staff. I had the chicken karaage and a bowl of tanuki udon, both were superb! The pricing is fair considering the quality. This place has definitely earned a spot on my favorites list! " (*Curated Review*)

" Perfect place for a quick lunch! The ramen and udon options are fantastic and made to order. I particularly loved the onigiri, which was just too good to pass up. My visit was without any complaints, and I look forward to coming back soon, maybe for dinner next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is everything you want in a Japanese restaurant. The portions are generous, the service is exceptional, and the atmosphere feels cozy and inviting. I tried the curry udon and the flavors were spot on – just the right amount of spice! Will be coming back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I had dinner at Kotohira, and it was a wonderful experience! The ambiance provided a relaxing atmosphere, and the food was delicious! We enjoyed a variety of dishes, from udon to sushi, all bursting with authentic flavor. I can't wait to go back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was mostly positive, although my plate could have used a bit more seasoning. The atmosphere was lovely, and the service was friendly. I'd recommend Kotohira for a filling meal at a decent price. I'm keen to give it another try! " (*Curated Review*)

" A lovely little spot for Japanese food. The udon was delightful and satisfying, although I wish the broth had a thicker consistency. The service staff was attentive and considerate. Overall, this is a quaint restaurant I would come back to again – just keep an eye out for the parking situation. " (*Curated Review*)
