"Marugame Monzo has delivered once again! I ordered the seafood tomato cream udon and a side of the chicken karaage. The chicken karaage was lovely and perfectly crispy with a good amount of meat. I also ate some of my friends' uni udon and it was creamy and delicious. Marugame Monzo has always been such a consistent spot for me and my friends and I would 10000% recommend stopping by!"—Emily W.
"Make sure to get here early on weekends, the wait list can get long. I came here on a weekday before 530 and was able to get seated by 6pm. However, I was alone and sat at the bar, so that could be why I was able to get seated so quickly the uni udon was so amazingly flavorful and creamy - I can still taste it as I write this review. Do yourself a favor and go for it! It's a stand out dish that I usually bring friends from out of the city to try! If the wait is too long, there's a tea shop right next to it for seating. You can easily enjoy a drink while you wait for your turn to be seated, that's what I did!"—Wisdom L.
