Mensho no Kokoro Tsukushi Tsurutontan is famed for its creative udon served in massive bowls resembling grinding mortars. The menu extends beyond conventional udon, featuring items such as rich mentaiko cream, mild curry udon topped with shrimp tempura or tonkatsu, and Japanese-Western twists inspired by carbonara or peperoncino. A distinctive appeal is the freedom to choose the noodle thickness and increase the serving size without extra cost, providing great satisfaction for hearty eaters. The interior showcases a solid, calm Japanese design reminiscent of folk art, equipped with private rooms featuring horigotatsu (sunken table seating) and tatami seating (zashiki) to suit everything from dining with children to hot pot banquets. Located just a short walk from Kintetsu-Nippombashi Station, its lights stay on until the next morning on select days, making it a reliable destination to round off a night of drinking.
