Tempura Tendon Tenya is the No. 1 Tendon chain in Japan, for good reasons too: it's affordable, it's consistent and very delicious. Burppler Rachel T even says the "food tastes almost just like in Japan". Try the classic Tenya Tendon ($8.50) with large tempura prawn, red fish, squid, French beans, and pumpkin, or opt for the Seafood Tendon ($12.90). Look out for Happy Hour on weekdays, where you can get a Japanese beer with a selection of tempura for just $8.90. A selection of cold and hot udon and soba are also available.
