I've been missing eating udon and tempura for a while so wanted to check this place out! We absolutely loved the tomato udon to try out since I've never seen an udon place offer a tomato broth (and it's one of my favorite hot pot bases). I stuck with the nikutama udon to try a more classic broth and it also was very delicious. We got some sides to try out and our faves of the sides were probably the kakiage tempura and the shrimp tempura taco. Both weren't greasy tasting and were nice and light to accompany the udon! There's plenty of seating if you want to come with a bigger group and the food comes out really quick! We ended up ordering multiple rounds of food to dine in with friends and when we ordered our last round for drinks and desserts to go, they remembered where our table was and delivered it right to us! For the strawberry lemon tea, it's still pretty sweet at 50% sweetness and it's perfect if you like pulp in your drink (as it has a lot). The matcha pudding was a great sweet treat to have after eating all of the udon and tempura as well. We'd definitely go back here as it's a good value for what you pay for and tastes great!
This place is a must stop! I had a very difficult time picking just one or two things from their menu so I went a little overboard, but that was okay because they have to go containers for leftover udon. The sushi taco shell had a very surprising crunch and was super delicious, although a little messy to eat lol I ordered at the kiosk and my order was called out within 5 minutes, although you can pick some menu items up right from the buffet style line right out front. Place feels like a very modern noodle joint and is very clean and well laid out. Will definitely be back to try some of their other great looking options!
This place reminds me of marugame udon in Hawaii when I was looking up udon places. Both the menu and layout are the same so not sure if it is from the same sister chain? Decided to stop by here to satisfy the craving. We came here 1.5 hours before closing and a lot of the side fried extras were out :(. I was kind of sad. Have to go earlier next time to get the full spread at least. Here you can order at a kiosk or at the counter. We decided to order at the counter since we wanted to grab some sides. I also wasn't sure how to order the chicken Katsu curry don instead of udon since it wasn't clear but there was no line so it was very fast. Portion size is good as you can see. Chicken karaage: very tender and delish. The sauce is by the self serve station where utensil and water is. One of the better chicken karaage I've had. Beef udon: good portion of beef. Broth is flavorful and not too salty. Hubby really enjoyed this even though he got the chicken Katsu Chicken Katsu: also good portion as pictured. There's a couple more slices of chicken under the top layer which is nice. A lot of curry but also a lot of rice at the bottom. Between the 2 of us, we still had left over chicken Katsu to bring one. Definitely a will come back place for udon and chicken Katsu don. Will definitely go earlier next time to get more sides!
Top quality ramen can be enjoyed here! And they will accommodate you if anything is needed once seated. Excellent service. Bring your dishes and tray to the dishwasher when finished. A+ always love love
This is such a cute restaurant!!! Love the art work and the set up as a whole. They have 2 kiosk where you can order food. Some of the items you can click on and it's tells you the ingredients but for some of the other items it doesn't. As a bit of picky eater it was hard figuring out what some of the stuff was and if it had meat/seafood that I didn't eat (even if I googled it). I ended up not ordering but they have a kind of walk up buffet where you can grab whatever you want and pay at the register. I ended up getting a kimchi rice ball and they heated it up for me. My cousin got a kimchi noodle bowl. Food came out fairly quick. We dined in and were the only ones but a few people came in for take out. We did call prior to going to ensure we could dine in the last opening hr and they were very nice the whole time. No closing pressure. Overall I'd come back to actually try some food.
These sushi tacos changed my life. The CRUNCH. The TASTE. YUM. I saw a TikTok about these and ran to get them the next day for lunch. I'm wowed by these and will be back soon!
Imagine a place inspired by the famous Marugame Udon where you order, they immediately make it in front of you, and you go down a line and grab any tempura options you want and pay at the end. You can then grab your own seat (mostly booths) and there is a self serve bar of sauces! Except there's way more broth options here, but the service is much slower. I tried the curry Nikutama udon, which came with sweet beef, a hot spring egg, and a thick curry soup. The soup was a bit toooo thick, so I kept pouring water in to make it less viscous. Otherwise, really generous portion, and you get to add unlimited scallions and crispy bits! Also tried the business combo 1, which includes any sushi taco, fried veggies and pork katsu, and chicken karaage. Every bite was absolutely delicious and the chicken karaage was some of the most juicy I've ever had. The salmon avocado taco was ok - very crunchy! I don't love wasabi so wish they didn't put that it. The sheer variety in this box is exciting!!
Soft and chewy udon but the broth wasn't spicy enough in our opinion. The salmon onigiri was delicious. The shrimp tempura was a bit cold but the boba tea was also sweet and chewy. The restaurant was spacious and clean when we visited, there is a kiosk to order but you can also order at the register. Also the make-line style is certainly efficient and I enjoyed watching my udon being made.
I was craving udon and this place hits the spot. Like many others, it reminded me of Marugame Udon in CA. I got the spicy miso and chicken katsu, friends got spicy beef, tonkatsu udon, and takoyaki. I tried a bit of everything and they were all solid. Spicy miso doesn't look spicy, but it has a kick to it. The noodles were thick and chewy, which is how I like it. I didn't care much for the other toppings on the spicy miso. I did like the mala broth on the spicy beef a lot and would get that next time. Everything else is self serve, but the staff in the kitchen and at check-out were extremely nice and welcoming. Will definitely come back whenever the cravings hit again!
This place is basically a copy of the chain Marugame Udon which is popular on the west coast, but they have a couple unique menu things including sushi tacos and rice bowls. I ordered this at the kiosk: (8/10) Shrimp tempura - Crispy, wasn't oily/ pretty light (8/10) Nikutama Udon - I really enjoyed the broth. Think noodles and good portion of meat. Not a big fan of having to crack my own egg. Also, I think I should've gotten less green onion, cause towards the end it was just all green onion. Was incredibly filling, I would get this again This is a fast casual place, so the food came out timely. Workers greeted us loudly on the way in and on the way out. You seat yourself and there is plenty of booths and seating, including outdoor seating on the patio in the back. Water is self-serve as well as their sauces. Make sure to bus your table yourself and return the tray to the tray return area. I'm definitely happy more and more asian places are popping up but price wise their dishes were the same or more expensive than the California menu (tbf Marugame is a chain). I paid roughly $36 for 2 bowls of Nikutama Udon, 1 shrimp tempura, 1 sweet potato tempura + tax.
For a Japanese place in Minnesota.. this place was really good. We were greeted as soon as we entered. We ordered through the kiosk and got seated. We got a noodle bowl rice bowl, salmon taco and a got one tempura sweet potato. It was all made fresh and everything was delicious. Since my sister lives here now, I can't wait to try more of the menu my next visit.
Quick service, with several options that can help the lunch crowd. Hope to update my review after enjoying more soup and donburi over the winter.
It was a unique concept where you put your order in a kiosk and sit down. There is A LOT of customization available, but for someone who is going for the first time, it was a little overwhelming. It asked me how much flake I wanted and I didn't understand what that meant. It also asked me if I wanted my tea 0% sugar, 20% sugar, 50% sugar, 70% sugar, or 100% sugar and I had no idea what that meant so I just guessed. It would be helpful if the kiosk also had the descriptions of what is in the different dishes.
They have so many fun options! I can't wait to go back and try more. I loved that you could see some of the food like the onigiri and sushi tacos on the counter and pick what you like. We also ordered a larger entree. They have tons of sauces available in a little sauce bar set up. Lemon water and regular water was also a nice touch. The seating was comfy and inviting, and even outdoor seating available. Their miso soup was the best I've ever had. I like miso to begin with but there was extra stuff in theirs that really made it special! I also loved the sushi tacos on- it was unlike anything I've had before. The taco shell was so crunchy, and fun to eat. I believe it was a tempura seaweed shell. The onigiri were also so cute and fun to eat. They were also very friendly and helpful. I can't wait to come back and try the udon! read more
I can't believe I forgot to order udon! Instead, I ordered a bunch of appetizers on a 2 for 1 special. Anyway, the Deep Fried Dumplings are delicious. The filling is juicy and savory and the wrappers aren't overly thick. Loved the Sweet Potato Tempura which was a square slice of sweet potato in light, lacy tempura batter, a lovely combination of smooth potato and crunchy batter. The Vegetable Spring Rolls are also light and crispy with a nicely seasoned filling. I had never had Chicken Karaage before and was surprised that it is deep fried chicken gizzards, which I have loved since I was a child and hadn't had in years. I'm so happy I got two because it will be a delicious lunch tomorrow. I did not like the Kitsune Age at all, it is paper thin tofu battered and fried and really tasted like nothing. It was in some kind of clear, sweet sauce so it was also spongy. Inedible. Overall a solid 4-stars. read more
Fast and flavorful and friendly service and cute clean space but food was not as good as Kinzo Udon, which is similar model. The pork belly tenderloin was nice, and the soup flavors were good, but the udon was overcooked so too soft, the soups were lukewarm, the fried tempura batter tasted like funnel cake, and the fried squid was overcooked. I really wanted to like this place since the reviews were good, but only found the food to be so-so. read more

It's basically a Japanese chipotle and the quality matches. Fast casual tempura-d stuff and udon. Service and ambience were both solid but the food is pretty mid. Not a lot of protein is most dishes and they rely pretty heavily on over salting for flavor. The "taco" concept is novel but pretty hard to eat and there was only a small bit of the actual unagi on a bunch of pumpkin and rice. The lunch deal for the box would be solid but otherwise we probably won't be back. I'd rather pay a bit more for an overall better experience. read more
It's kind of a fun place, where you pick up your udon soup at the beginning of the line, and continue down to get your tempura toppings and any other items like sushi tacos or onigiri. The tempura is crisp and not greasy, but also not much flavor. You can get sauce at the end of the line, but it doesn't help much. I like the onigiri at Okome house the best, and these didn't measure up. The rice was undercooked and a little crunchy. The udon soup was typical; nothing unusual. read more
This restaurant is located in the commercial hub with a bunch of other restaurants. I can see this area running out of parking spots during a busy lunch hour. New udon restaurant that has caught my attention, we stopped by to try the sushi taco. I didn't know what to order so we ordered on the kiosk for the business combo, which came with the sushi taco. Then the tempura which were sold ala cart and omusubi. I was surprised they offered bubble tea as well. They do have an ordering counter and food line that you can grab onto your tray/box. Sauce station on the right next to the tray window. Someone will take your dishes to wash if you drop them off, reminds me of the cafeteria in the hospital. Everything we ordered was fried and yummy. I will have to come back and try their udon. read more

More pictures from our second visit. Tried more fried tempura items and gyozas. Tempura rice bowl got to try a variety of seafood and veggies. I will say the fried items could be more piping hot. It was more under the heat lamp. Just a suggestion to make it even more delicious. read more

i love that MN is embracing asian culture more than ever with all these different restaurants & shops opening. what i NOMd: beef udon - absolutely amazing. i was feeling under the weather so it was a little heavy for me as most things are when i'm sick but very flavorful nonetheless. the beef was good & i could eat sautéed onions for days. vibes, etc.: this place was no short of a delight. listening to people speak the languages of asia, especially japenese and korean, are one of my simple pleasures in life so it immediately brought so much comfort to hear the staff speaking & greeting in japanese. i also loved the ambience. the perfect vibe & meal for a rainy day. will be back to try more knocked a star bc there was floaties in my water read more

I've seen ten don bowls in Japan all over my TikTok! It's on my list and I highly crave it. When I saw that we have this new Japanese place that specializes in just that I had to come. Upon entrance, the staff greeted you right away loud and clearly, it was nice and as we were actually in Japan. You can see all the tempura through the window as if was we were on the street of Tokyo. It was so cute and looked very appetizing. I got the ten don which is a rice bowl with fried tempura shrimp, crab, squid, and veggies. 10/10 delicious!! The tempura was light and crispy and the tempura vegetables were nice and tender. When we go back I want to try their udon, it looked amazing! They offer alot of delicious food, give it a try! read more

Hello Makinda,…
So many new udon places popping up around the twin cities and I am not mad about it! I like how easy it is to order on the self checkout kiosks. I got the Niku udon and my husband ordered the cold Nikutama udon. Both were good however, my Niku udon was a bit more bland which I actually prefer over too salty. My husband's had a bit more flavor. They have some Japanese chili powder and tempura flakes on the side you can grab yourself. Takoyaki was okay, I probably wouldn't get it again but the prices were all reasonable. Plenty of seating and parking isn't a problem. read more

Dear Anna…
I tried this new udon place and it's so good! It has various tempuras, delicious udon noodles, and sushi tacos! The curry ramen was creamy and flavorful and the meat and noodles absorbed all the yummy curry sauce! The sushi tacos are fine, nothing special but I do like the crispy seaweed shell. I'd totally recommend trying this place in Eden prairie! read more

Had a great experience at Maruichi Udon. Udon noodles were fresh and loved the kitsune udon! Very flavorful. Also tried the tempura shrimp and scallop sushi taco both were also good. Unique and fun space and perfect for lunch or dinner. Service was quick and staff were friendly. Definitely one of my favorite spots for udon, and will be coming back! read more

First time dinning in at Maruichi. We were greeted with a warm welcome by staff when we stepped inside. Ordered at the kiosk and the food was delivered in a timely manner. Love the udon noodles, they are thick and taste fresh. The rice bowl is so yummy, could do with a little more meat. We will be back and will try the ready to go food at the counter! read more

Is there anything vegetarian here?
They have Kisune Udon which is noodles and tofu but I would check with them about the broth to be sure. They have vegetable taco, other types of tempuras like sweet potato, zucchini, & mushroom. There's also a Omusubi called Ume Konbu & one that's…
