We absolutely love this place! Their udon noodles which are freshly made are delicious. I ordered the Beef Tomatama Udon the 1st time we were there and never got over how good they were so we had to go back sooner than expected. The place is cozy but very comfortable and the staff are industrious, efficient, respectful and helpful. Btw, their calamansi juice is very, very good. Kind of strange to find it in a Japanese resto (it’s a Filipino drink) but glad that they have it. We will be back!

This is our second time having Marugame. We got the Tomatama Curry Udon & Nikutama Udon. Such flavorful and delicious broth (it is a little sweet though). We should have gotten the regular size, there is so much food in the large we were able to have leftovers for lunch the next day. Highly recommend. Service was amazing. The only downside is that I feel their tempura is a little over priced so we never get any.

Marugame Udon in Chino Hills is such a comforting spot; especially on a cold, rainy day. Their udon soups are absolutely delicious, warm, and full of flavor. You can really taste the freshness in every bowl.
As a first-time visitor though, I will say the ordering process was a little confusing. A clearer sign or simple explanation for newcomers would go a long way. The layout of the tables also feels a bit uninviting and could definitely be improved to make the dining experience more comfortable.
With that said, the staff truly made up for it. Everyone was warm, kind, and welcoming, which I genuinely appreciated. Overall, great food and great people; just a little room for improvement in the flow and layout. I’ll still be back for that amazing udon!

Especially on a gloomy / rainy day. Get yourself some fresh hot udon, get in and out!
– Freshly made noodles, good ingredients from what I can see
– lots of options
– fast
– reminds me of things I see in Japan, still have yet to go there
– easy peasy
– clean
Lines can get long but it’s fast and most people who eat here understand the “eat and get out” concept.
Not really a sit down kinda spot. I mean if it’s slowing think it’s okay but that’s not the concept of this restaurant.
Check it out! See the picture below for a large versus a regular size

Very impressed with the food. We tried a variety of everything. The yam tempura was so tasty, best I have ever had. All the rice and noodle bowls were excellent and very tasty. The Ala-cart items were priced ok, we got allot of them. The staff was very very friendly, helpful in choosing and getting items to table and very nice. We will be coming back here again after our second trip here already.

Got the Curry Nikutama with chicken katsu, shrimp tempura, potato croquette and chicken tempura and everything was sooo good. Can’t wait to go back. I really appreciate the fact that the food is served in ceramic ware instead of melamine plastic bowls like most places so I can eat here and know I’m not consuming a bunch of microplastics. They even dip the bowl in hot water to ensure it does not cool the food too fast. I also love the pureed ginger they have by the water dispenser and the service was great, a very helpful lady assisted our company lunch with clearing the tables with a nice smile, very considerate and pleasant. I will be back many more times. You can tell the place is good when there is a line going out the door as soon as they open, def worth the short wait even if there is a line.

Good artisan Udon noodles, made there for you to view. My lady and I tried their Nikutama bowl, and it did not disappoint! A tiny bit sweet, tasty meat and the noodles, thick and had a great texture and most importantly, taste. Overall, will go back again. Want to try their curry Nikutama.

The food, service and atmosphere were all fantastic. I ordered the Nikutama (beef with soft boiled egg), chicken katsu curry and tonkotsu. My only wish is that the udon soups were served hotter in temperature, otherwise they were tasty. I also liked that the restaurant was fairly spacious. I would recommend this place and come back!

Came in around 7 pm on a Sunday night, pretty packed. There were a few tables open so I seated pretty quickly after I ordered my food.
I was surprised the katsu was still crunchy, not sure how long it was sitting out by the time I picked it. Overall fast, pleasant experience, would come back to try the other menu items

The broth was very tasty but udon was overcooked, which made the whole experience less than ideal. I would choose to get the regular sized bowls, as with a large your toppings are very minimal and not enough to eat with every bite. The fried items are flavourful but a bit stale from sitting out. Perhaps it would be better fresh.
We have had better at other locations, perhaps it was just an off day for this one. I’d come back if they improved on their noodles as the dining area is clean and staff is friendly 🙂
