"Food: 5 The food was all very delicious! The udon noodles were made and cooked perfectly. We enjoyed various udon bowls, including their white wine clam sauce, their duck broth, and their beef with fluffy egg. We also got their signature uni cream udon, which we liked it but not as much as we expected to. The uni is cooked so it has a milder flavor and firmer texture rather than the creamier texture you may have in sushi, and the cream sauce is decadent but quite heavy. We also enjoyed their karaage and assorted tempura which were both masterfully fried and delicious. Service: 5 We arrived at 11:30am on a Tuesday and waited about 15-20 minutes. You can put your name on a waitlist outside the restaurant, but you must have your whole party there and can’t wander away since they call your name manually. We had a very attentive and kind waiter! Atmosphere: 5 Great vibes overall. You can venture to the back of the restaurant to watch them prepare the food if you’re interested!"

Great quality food at a good price point. Wait is usually 10-30 mins for two people. Will be back soon.

Pretty good udon. Had the vegetarian option. Not amazing atmosphere to linger after food and drinks were alright

Fantastic place! The wait wasn't too long. I had the tempura, which was incredibly crunchy, light, and full of flavor. I also tried the shrimp tempura udon and beef udon. They were perfect—not too heavy or filling, just right!

*Fresh Handmade Udon* Request to sit at the bar so you can watch them make the udon. It was fun to watch! Recommend: Sea Urchin Udon and Miso Carbonara Udon Long wait but it is worth it. Come early and put your name on the list.

Creamy, delicious, and full of flavor, the udon at Marugame is simply exceptional. They offer a wide range of unique Japanese udon dishes that I would happily enjoy time and time again. We had a blast sampling each item on the menu! View menu

The mentai cream udon is outstanding—absolutely delicious! I really enjoy the thickness and texture of the noodles, which pair perfectly with the creamy soup. While the wait for a table can be lengthy, the food comes out quickly once you order, making it all worthwhile. The restaurant has limited seating, and it's common for pairs to share a table with another group. However, they provide a screen between tables to maintain a sense of privacy.

I recently dined at Marugame Monzo in Little Tokyo and was thoroughly impressed by their udon noodles. Cooked to perfection, the noodles had an ideal texture that complemented the rich broth exceptionally well. The ambiance of the restaurant adds to the experience, making it a delightful spot for udon enthusiasts. While the uni udon was a unique twist, I found the uni flavor to be somewhat subtle. I expected a more pronounced sea urchin taste, but it didn't quite meet my expectations. Additionally, the portions were on the smaller side. Despite these minor drawbacks, the overall dining experience at Marugame Monzo was exceptional. The diverse menu, friendly staff, and the standout udon noodl...
