Honestly amazing. Such good pork belly, and the seaweed and rice wraps are fun and delicious. My sweetheart loves the shrimp. Give this place a try! They're wonderful and the staff is very friendly! read more

OMG! This place was such a hidden gem. I hate that it took us so long to try Maru Bowl-Ritto. This is a cute little ma & pa spot. It all seem to be handmade as you order. The rittos were a great fusion of Korean and Mexican flavors and dishes. I loved the kimchi; it had such bright flavors. Inside the ritto, the kimchi was a nice complement to the other ingredients without overpowering all the other flavors. Inside the shop is small and cozy. There are a few tables to dine in. The interior has a warm energy and it feels welcoming. It has been a long time since I have found a great Korean-Mexican fusion place, and I am so happy we stumbled upon Maru. I highly recommend this spot and hope you give them a try. 10/10 read more

Great hole in the wall place that hits the mark with their kimchi burrito! Our friends told us about this place in the valley and we're so excited to order from it again. I was a bit hesitant about a kimchi asada burrito but after I tried it, I was hungry for more. The shop is run by a sweet family who you can tell has mastered this fusion, especially with how homemade the kimchi tastes without it being overbearing. If you're looking for something different on a budget try them out! read more

So glad we found this place. It's a mom & pop shop with the friendliest & nicest owners. Ordered the burrito bowl, pork belly bowl & fried chicken. It's simple, yet they are all so delicious. Their Serrano pepper "chilli" is soo good, it gives you a quick kick yet it adds flavor. Will definitely come back whenever I'm in the area. read more

Finally got to try Maru Bowl after passing by it forever! I checked the reviews and I had to bookmark it. I got the kimchi bulgogli ritto to go. The restaurant is nice and clean and plenty of seating. Really cool and relaxing ambiance. The service was nice. I believe the owner was there and he was very welcoming and friendly. The ritto took a while to make but it was okay. The ritto tasted good but I would've like more flavor and more bulgogli. It was a little smaller than I anticipated. I would've get it again though and I also want to try their bulgogli bowl. read more

Can't believe i've been working next to this place nearly a year and have only stopped in to get ONEEE bowl. But oh, what a bowl it was! The pork belly bowl is crazy good. Get it with the spicy pepper and take a bite with a little bit of everything! The pork belly is tender, crispy, bite-sized unctiousness that feels rich and juicy and gets balanced perfectly with their kimchi and spicy pepper. I looooove kimchi, and next time i'll be getting extra from them because it's really good. Their mandu is also delicious. I eat them way too fast and get sad when they're gone. Their side of fried shrimp is good, but I wouldn't get it on its own again. Probably in a bowl if I can ever bring myself to try anything other than the pork belly bowl. The service is friendly and efficient, a sweet mom and pop shop! The area inside is clean and a nice amount of tables. I did takeout, though. Can't wait to come again! read more

Maru Bowl - Ritto - bulgogi bowl no kimchi - Korean Near Me - Winnetka, California

A cute place (maybe seats about 12 to 14 people), in a small strip center. My friend and I had the Bulgogi (beef) and Fried Chicken Bowls with rice, and the Mandu - pork and chicken dumplings. Great flavor! I imagine this is what Korean Street Food is like. The owners - are very nice as well. A great experience! read more

This place is good! The first time I ordered here, I got the bulgogi kimchi bowl, which was very good. So good that I kept ordering it every time. You can't go wrong with that order. But it wasn't until my fifth visit here that I ordered the pork belly kimchi bowl. I gotta say, I like it even more than the bulgogi bowl. Especially if you get it spicy (it's not really that spicy - enough to warm up your face, but not enough to make you sweat). The richness of the pork's fatty bits are so well balanced by the kimchi, the green scallion, and the chopped up peppers. I think there's probably also a little bit of kewpie mayo in there, too (maybe). The egg with runny yolk is also a nice addition that goes well with everything in the bowl. Mix it all up with the rice, and you get the perfect bite, every time. The ddeok-bbokki is also very, very good. Very tasty sauce that goes well with the fish cake, rice cake, and especially the dumplings. The sauce has a nice spicy kick to it, so be cautioned if you don't like spicy food. I also tried a bite of my mom's order, the fried chicken kimchi bowl. Very tasty. The chicken pieces were crispy on the outside, and meat wasn't dry. Nothing wrong with it at all, but not my favorite item on their menu. This place is tucked away in an unassuming little plaza. It is run by an older Korean couple, both of whom are very nice. The place is clean, and there are tables inside. All of the times I got food here was to-go, and I haven't really seen people dining in here that often (I've seen plenty of other people picking up food to-go). The parking lot is a little small, so parking can be tricky during busier times. I've seen other people just double-park if they're picking up food to-go. All-in-all, this place has earned a regular spot on my take-out food rotation. I highly recommend this place for everyone to try. read more

First time I came here I was craving bulgogi So I protein'd up This time I got the same protein up But half pork belly half bulgogi That pork belly is awesome man I'm coming back again! read more

This little gem located in a small corner plaza is worth the visit! I've tried both the bowl and the burrito and both are fantastic options. I love the bulgogi rice bowl that's served with a delicious egg and topped with scallions and kim chi. I also love the shrimp tempura and bulgogi burrito which are just incredible flavors combined with the texture of seaweed. It's a cute little atmosphere but I've only done take out but there are a few tables and high chairs if you prefer to dine there. The service is another main reason I like to visit, it's a really nice family that runs this cute little place. As for parking, there's a lot that has open spots often. read more

Maru Bowl - Ritto - Bulgogi Kimchi BOWL - Korean Near Me - Winnetka, California

Went here for the soft opening and was not disappointed. We have been repeat customers for a while now. Quality and service is still good.

I honestly love the food here. The burrito is absurdly delicious. The problem is the price to size ratio. $16 for a very small burrito and even smaller amount of actual meat is kind of ridiculous. But hey it's their business and they can charge what they want. I'm only writing this review because today I paid for my two burritos and asked for a tiny thing of spicy sauce on the side. The women running the register had an attitude at this request and muttered something in Korean then said "next time charge". It was just really rude to be treated like that over what was likely a 50 cent charge and even then why are you charging for spicy sauce on a $16 burrito? Makes me question if I'll come back honestly. read more

Cute family owned business! The couple at the register are wonderful and so warm! The food is so good my fave is the shrimp bowl w the spicy sauce. Has parking too:) read more

I get the pork belly kimchi bowl regularly. When my grandmother suffered from dementia she would often reminisce about a sandwich she had once, or a bowl of pasta. When all other memories were fleeting, she would still remember good food. This pork belly kimchi bowl here is what I will reminisce about when my mind starts to go. It is locked in my mind as the perfect meal. Will any other food satisfy me so completely? I hope so, but sometimes I worry that I have already had the best. It keeps me awake at night. read more

I would definitely come back here again. read more

Amazing family business. Very clean inside. Modern korean music. They offer korean burritos and bowls. I got one with bulgogi. It was very well rolled, had tender beef meat, kinchi, rice, seaweed, cucumber and was pretty juicy. The burrito was barely warm which was intended and tasted good. I couldn't even finish the other half. The price was $14 which is good in our tough times. Owners are very friendly and provide good service. Burrito was ready in like 5 mins Highly recommended for those who like sushi and korean cuisine. read more

Great food and service from the kind owner. This spot is definitely a mom and pop to try if you are in the area!

Cute lil establishment run by two Korean elders making bomb rice bowls As you can see in the many photos posted here, the bowls are great quality, thoughtfully made, and right-sized (so upsize if you are very very hungry). Gotta just love these mom-and-pops who put such love into their cooking and craft. And, the two Korean elders running the show are so so nice. Fried Shrimp Bowl : Crispy shrimp bits, savory and not too oily. On top of a bed of fresh, hot rice. Thoughtfully topped with some kimchi, garnish, and their house sauce. Mandu (Korean Dumplings, fried) : Great side with substantially filled dumplings fried to a crisp perfection. If you're craving bulgogi or Korean flavors, come and try this place. I'm quite confident it'll please. Facility: Clean, well designed, small, indoor seating only. Payment: Yes Card, Yes Apple/Google/NFC Pay, Yes Online Order. Parking: Corner plaza parking. Wasn't too hard on a Friday at 1PM. read more

Just tried this place for the first time while trying to find a good take out place on Yelp on the way home. I grabbed a Bulgogi Kimchi Ritto for me and a Bulgogi Kimchi Bowl for my SO. I thought my burrito was delicious enough I definitely want to go back. My partner didn't get as much out of her bowl because she hit a big bunch of spicy peppers early on which I think killed her taste buds. So watch out for that I suppose lol. But overall, thumbs up from me at least. The place is very cute as well. Mom and pop ambiance, with a strong Korean vibe. Would definitely return to try other stuff on the menu. read more

AMAZING. protein options are standard and the quality of proteins are great! The portion sizes are on the smaller side in comparison to others however the bowl is PACKED with flavor in comparison to others. Parking lot is small but service is fast and the ambience is quaint and quiet. Great for lunch and late dinners. read more

My son and I were wanting something a little different and Maru Bowl came up with good reviews so we went here. We ordered two bowls, the Bulgogi and the Pork Belly. They were both excellent and we are so happy we discovered this place and can't wait to go back. Good quality and great flavor. We look forward to trying the Ritto's next time. read more
