Thanks for stopping by to read mmm-yoso!!! at the start of a three day weekend which we all might be able to enjoy this year. Cathy is writing while Kirk (and His Missus) are vacationing.
The Mister and I have ventured out a bit more recently and have tried to visit places which satisfy cravings we have been unable to recreate at home. (Here's a link to Kirk's first Wa Dining Okan post; there are at least 20 more).
The tight indoor eating space is now socially distanced with outdoor seating making up the difference.
There is a large menu board outside the door. 
Once you are seated, a two sided paper menu page, including a QR code, is given. The Mister chose the Deluxe Curry Udon ($13.50) from this menu. Rich, beefy, (with a light blend of onion, potato and carrot) curry, firm udon, two tempura shrimp and a poached egg. This blend of flavors and texture was completely satisfying.
From the QR menu, I chose the Katsu pork set ($11), adding the tempura mini bowl ($6), because I wanted a different crunch.
.
The mini bowl had the two tempura'd shrimp as well as potato and shishito peppers; a delightful combination. 
The BBQ Yakiniku set ($11) was filling with the flavorful thin sliced sautéed beef and vegetables and slaw along with the other parts of the Set (a great miso soup, white rice and varied pickled sides).
I chose the Kakuni (pork belly) Set this time. Tender braised pork belly in its sauce with a boiled egg…a perfect blend of flavors. 
We always order hot tea here ($2 each). It is an excellent green tea.

I’m glad you guys went! I just sent an email to the site about the curry ramen and the tempura as being excellent so I’m happy it met your approval. This is quite a surprise find and now its where my wife & I go for tempura and udon.
I’m thrilled you guys were able to revisit and try the Curry Udon/Tempura. I sent an email to the site about these dishes at Wa Dining Okan because they came up as among the best places for udon and tempura. Since trying it a few weeks ago its where my wife and I go specifically for both those dishes and we couldn’t be happier. However we only go for dinner.
We also discovered the spicy cucumber salad on the menu is quite good too. Not as good as Din Tai Fung but a fairly reasonable alternative for some (non fried) veggies and crunch.
everything looked delicious!
The Mister has had some particular cravings for Japanese curry, Loren. I do pay attention to how items are fried and must say that Okan really knows how to give a proper fry, which we also cannot achieve at home. Will have to check out the spicy cucumber next visit; thanks for the tip!
Everything here is delicious and quality, Kat.
We haven’t been to Wa Dining Okan since forever! Now that I will be on summer break soon, it is time to pay a revisit! Thanks for sharing your visit. I love the variety in their sets.
I think with the outdoor tables, there is more seating than usual, cc. The quality has remained the same and we really enjoy it here.
