ordered the cold BK udon. had a great texture!staff was a bit slow since it seemed like a few people were new.great spot for affordable, yummy eats!
I can’t recommend Marugame Udon because of their poor animal welfare. :’( They practice poor customer service by failing to address the animal cruelty in their supply chain even when many customers bring it to their attention. They provide lower food safety standards elsewhere outside of the US, which is not right. I can’t support this company!
Their customer service is very poor as they aren't responding to customer concerns about the animal cruelty in their supply chain. I cannot recommend Marugame Udon because they refuse to adopt a global cage free policy even though so many of their competitors have...
It's super disappointing that Marugame isn't cage-free. I thought they would have better standards for their food. I won't be eating here until they take animal welfare seriously
Wonderfully chewy udon and soothing soup. The little additional appetizer pieces are also delightful. The croquettes are smooth and soft inside while still crunchy on the outside. The roe adds a nice saltiness to the mix
Dropping in early Saturday evening we were lucky that it was pretty open for that time. Never been here before took me awhile to understand the workflow. You pick up a tray and order the bowls from the beginning the for the tempura you choose them as you move your way down to the cashier. My wife ordered the # 8 beef upon and it was really tasty with the green onion and tempura flake. I ordered the teriyaki chicken bowl , wasn't a fan of the breaded chicken. Should have ordered an udon bowl. Will do that next time.
The Udon here is the best! I love every kind of flavor. And there are many sides you can pick. The waiters and waitresses are so nice and friendly!
I have not dined in here since 2019 or early 2020. The experience is the same great experience I had the first time I dined in here. The neighborhood, Sawtelle Japantown is great to hang out if you wanna stay away from other major communities in the City Of Los Angeles which are suffering from a lot of crime right now. I spent under $19 for what you see here (water bottle not pictured) which is a fair price for fresh Udon and tempura dishes + the atmosphere that I mentioned. I'll be coming here more often in the future. Thanks Marugame. ?
I always get the nikutama bowl. The beef and onsen egg is really good. I also always take too much tempura. The recent time I went I actually didn't really like their shrimp tempura. It didn't really taste like anything and the texture wasn't great either. The other tempura I got like the mushrooms were good though.
Our first time and definitely not the last. Super clean place, well organized and super fast self service food. It’s a must go place late in the night for a light delicious noddles.
