About this place
Pair a morning drink with udon in a Japanese-style broth and a few small plates. At Ojigo, that can make for a breakfast as well as a drink. One diner recalls the bonito-flake dashi as particularly memorable. They ordered udon and other snacks made with the broth, making its savoury flavour an option both for a meal and alongside a drink.
The menu includes kake udon, a choice for a lighter bite. For something more substantial, there are beef tendon rice bowls and curry, a ten-toji rice bowl, and rice balls with okaka or kombu. Small plates and kushikatsu (deep-fried skewers) suit those looking mainly for drinking snacks. Skewer choices include beef and lotus root, asparagus, yam and shiitake, so diners can mix vegetables and meat.
Another diner enjoyed mugishochu mixed with green tea, together with a steamed pork set and simmered dishes. The steamed pork set is described as being made by a nearby restaurant; it is best regarded as a dish to come across on the day rather than assumed to be a regular menu item. Opening hours vary by day, and the restaurant is closed on Thursdays. Listed hours start at 5:00 on most days, making Ojigo an option for a meal or a drink in the morning.
