About UDON Bilbao Abando
UDON Bilbao Abando, located in the ensanche, is an Asian restaurant specializing in, well, udon. It's consistently popular, judging by the almost 3000 reviews averaging 4.5 stars. The vibe leans casual and trendy, but people also describe it as cozy and even quiet. You can get your standard alcohol, beer, and wine, but they also offer coffee and tea. It seems to cater to a wide demographic, including college students, families, tourists, and groups. The menu aims to please everyone with healthy, organic, vegan, and vegetarian options alongside smaller plates for sharing. They're open for lunch and dinner, and late on weekends. I appreciate that they have wheelchair accessibility; that's always a plus. It's open most days but with an odd 5-8 PM closure, so plan accordingly. The sheer number of photos online suggests that people really like documenting their meals here. While the menu is broad, it might lack the laser focus of a smaller, more specialized udon shop.
