Marugame Udon

This was so good!!! I got the new Tomatama Curry bowl and I loved it. I’ve never tried udon before but I’m so glad I had a chance to try it today. I also got a cheese and sweet potato tempura. I honestly wanted to get back in line for more. That sweet potato was the best (though I may be biased b/c sweet potatoes are a fave). And to top it off I got the pineapple sunrise. Super refreshing. This was exactly what I needed after a long day of traveling. Plus the artwork and vibe was super cute.

Totally fine for a quick bite. Most of the toppings are tempura and fried, they have steamed veggies, and soft boiled egg if you don’t want tempura. I think having dumplings that aren’t deep fried would be a good addition.

Ok! First, I must admit that it has been nearly a decade since I was consistently dining on Japanese cuisine in Japanese. However, that being said, Marugame Udon has mastered the flavors, experiences, and quality of Japanese dining in this light-filled and friendly little shop. Here I was energetically greeted with いっらしゃいませ(irrashaimase!) as I made my way in the front doors. The server made polite inquiry of my request and engaged with professionalism and great service decorum. As my order of large Tonkatsu Udon was made from hand-made noodles, I began my way down the self serve counter. Ruby, a most friendly and helpful server, explained that once I received my Udon, I could add my favorite tempura. Be sure to look for Ruby! She’s a tempura master! I added my Ito En branded o-cha to my order and dove in! To my surprise and delight—mouth-watering broth, plentiful pork loin strips, and perfectly prepared noodles! I opted for the additional green onions and tempura flakes, along with the sweet potato and squid tempura. Both excellent choices! And if you have other favorites, there are plenty to choose from. And Ruby will make you a fresh one if you like!! Again, just ask. Clean. Tasty. Energetic and fun atmosphere. Plenty of seating for families and groups with outdoor options on the patio too! If it turns out your eyes are bigger than your head, dive into the take-home container area and package your things just how you like. Oh! And if you prefer the order kiosk machine—go for it! Just be sure to connect with Ruby; she seems like a real gem.
