MARU KOREA

My boyfriend and I have gone here a couple times before and it was always delicious, however they have now rebranded to ‘Maru Korea’ and have an entirely new menu! I was a bit worried at first because i was a big fan of their Tonkotsu, but the meal i got was SO good! The service was super fast and friendly, the restaurant was clean (although it always is!) and the server even brought us two complimentary courses while we were waiting on our food. 10/10 highly recommend!!

We love this Ramen PLACE!!!!! Its always a to go place for us when we visit the area. The food is perfect, quality and tasty! With affordable price, we feel like we got tons of the protein (the beef or the seafood). We are never disappointed! The servers were great, either the new girl or the older lady. The Korean Ice Coffee is soo delicious too. Love love love.

Maru Ramen is a fusion Asian spot that blends Japanese and Vietnamese flavors. The vibe is nice, but for the price, I expected a bit more in terms of quality — though to be fair, the portions are solid. I tried the Tonkotsu Ramen, Shrimp Tempura Ramen, and the Shrimp Tempura Crab Roll. The flavors were okay, but the chashu was overcooked, which definitely took away from the experience. Service was fine — nothing bad, but nothing memorable either. Overall, not a bad place if you’re in the area and craving ramen.

If you’re in Ithaca and haven’t been to Maru Ramen, honestly… what are you doing?! I’ve been going since they first opened and it seems to be getting better each year! The ramen(my personal favorite) has broth that is always rich and flavorful without being overly salty, and the noodles are perfectly chewy. I've tried plenty of other items on their menu (like the purple rice roll pic) and everything is delicious. I also love the casual, relaxed vibe of the space, and the service is always friendly and quick. Overall, Maru Ramen really nails it on flavor, service, and consistency. Definitely worth checking out!

One of my favorite ramen spots in Ithaca! Quick service, decent portions, and super tasty. Lots of ramen and side options, plus some authentic Japanese drinks that always hits the spot.
