About UDON Bilbao Abando
UDON Bilbao Abando is a casual Asian restaurant in Abando where the kitchen delivers consistent, properly executed dishes at €10–20 a plate. Walk in, order at the counter or table, and you'll get noodles, gyozas, pad thai, and Thai curry udon cooked fresh. The space is modern and unforced — no theatrical plating, no pretence, just clean execution and fast service. What keeps people coming back (and reviewers mention repeat visits explicitly) is the reliability: the Thai Curry Udon arrives in its right state, the ingredients taste fresh, and the kitchen doesn't drop quality between lunch and dinner. Staff like Onintza and Angy are attentive without hovering, they speak English, they'll guide you through the menu, and they've earned specific praise for handling dietary requirements (one reviewer's coeliac daughter ate confidently here). The crowd's mixed — families, college students, tourists, solo diners — which tells you it works for everyone. It's the kind of place you'd book for a casual lunch, return to on a Friday night, and recommend to someone visiting Bilbao who wants good Asian food without the markup.
