Rice - Lemongrass Chicken $19.95
Ellen J.

The rice-to-chicken ratio was better than expected, which I appreciated since many places give small pieces of meat. The meal was decent overall, though some pieces of chicken had a stronger odor than others. Unfortunately, I found a hair at the bottom of the bowl near the end of my meal. It wasn't mine. This experience affected my impression of the restaurant and makes me hesitant to order from here again. /// Rice - Lemongrass Chicken $19.95 Jasmine rice Mixed greens House-made fish sauce

Tucked away in the Lil Tokyo mall on the 2nd floor above the chaos of the plaza. The restaurant certainly had warm, and inviting ambiance with a relaxing feel, and some contemporary music. The spot was mostly empty when my girlfriend and I arrived for dinner around 5:30pm on a Saturday. We ordered with the host and picked out a table by the window to people watch while we waited for our food. We waited only maybe 10 minutes before the pho, vermicelli, and spring roles were served. Each dish was colorful, had great presentation, and nice portions for the price. The pho we ordered was spicy level hot and did have well done broth and a good amount of sliced steak. The protein was tender, and the veggie toppings added great elements of minty crunch and herbal delight. I enjoyed my combination noodles. The bowl had a good mix of vegetables and a few types of protein ( chicken, pork, fried egg roll, and shrimp ) it was awesome! The spring rolls were terrific as well. The peanut sauce had some nut crumbles for texture which had subtle crunch with every spring role bite. The food was good, staff was great, and I'd consider coming back if ever in the area again with a Vietnam craving.

Delicious ordered the pork bahn mi. Full of flavor thsi is the half order. I should have ordered the full order but the price for a full one was a Litlle higher price from what I would have paid at other places.

Pho

Sometimes, I have lazy days where I want to order delivery. And it's been cold these days so I wanted some pho! Even though I don't really enjoy Vietnamese food in LA compared to OC, I had to cave in because I was missing Vietnamese food too much. Vui Ve does a great job at organizing their takeout bowls, thus made it look so clean compared to other pho takeouts I've done! Tastes ok overall - just your typical southern style pho with thin noodles and strongly aromatic. Definitely prefer this over pho in Koreatown! I would order again whenever I'm lazy and I crave for this!

I am usually skeptical about trying new pho places because they are a hit or miss. I am particularly picky with the bone broth flavor. But this one was a hit! Finished everything down to the juice!! What caught my attention was how aesthetically pleasing and cozy the shop looked. Dinned in around 5:30pm and there were definitely regular's trickling around 6pm along with plenty of to go orders. The waitress was very welcoming and gave us some good suggestions for our first time there. I had my Mind set on the pho brisket and shrimp spring rolls! Which was a great choice cause they did not disappoint. Parking: parking is about $15-20 and they do not provide validation. If you want parking validation I would suggest you park in the little Tokyo parking structure and you can get your ticket. Validated at the cafe or at the Nijiya market. If you park in J parking you can't get validation.

The food was really good. I got the rare beef pho and my boyfriend got the shrimp fried rice. The ambiance was really nice with good decor and friendly service.

Ph Rare Steak
Chrissy L.

One of the best weekday lunch specials that comes with an iced tea and spring roll. Rare steak pho is incredibly tasty with a savory broth. The portion is large.

Gisselle M.

Service was amicable, vast array of food in the menu, and the place was humming with clientele. The atmosphere is adorable and welcoming. I ordered some spring rolls which were great but I'm definitely looking forward to coming back and trying their Pho!

Crystal S.

Cute little gem on 2nd floor. Great lunch specials, music and great energy. Their ice coffee is a must try. It was busy for a Monday, so the service was just OK.

Quality time with the hubby!

Marugame Monzo really knows how to make a great bowl of udon! The noodles have that perfect chewy…read moretexture that makes them so satisfying, and there's a nice variety of dishes to choose from. Whether you're in the mood for something rich and creamy or a more traditional bowl of udon with a flavorful broth, there's something for everyone. The Ankake Mushroom Udon with seafood was my personal favorite. It's generously loaded with mushrooms, giving the dish a deep, earthy flavor, while the seafood adds another layer of savory richness without overpowering the mushrooms. The combination is beautifully balanced, with the delicate flavors of the seafood complementing the earthiness of the mushrooms. It's a wonderfully satisfying bowl with plenty of depth and character. The Miso Carbonara Udon is easily a standout. It was incredibly rich and creamy, with a velvety sauce that beautifully coated the thick udon noodles. It definitely leans indulgent, but the savory miso gives it a wonderful depth of flavor that elevates it beyond a Japanese interpretation of creamy pasta. It's an excellent choice for anyone craving something decadent and comforting. The Beef Udon is much more straightforward, but in the best possible way. Tender beef, fresh scallions, thick udon noodles, and a warm, savory broth come together in a bowl that's both simple and deeply comforting. It's the kind of uncomplicated dish that allows you to appreciate the noodles themselves rather than having their flavor overshadowed by a heavy sauce. The restaurant itself is casual, cozy, and unpretentious, with an open view into part of the kitchen that gives it a little extra character. It's almost always busy, which initially makes the line look more intimidating than it actually is. However, the turnover is impressively efficient. We visited on a Friday evening and waited less than 10 minutes before being seated. Needless to say, this probably isn't the place I'd choose for a quiet, leisurely dinner since the dining room can get pretty lively when it's full, but that honestly feels like part of its charm. There's something inviting about the bustling atmosphere, the comforting bowls of udon, and the simplicity of a restaurant that lets its food speak for itself. Come hungry, expect a crowd, and don't let the line discourage you!

The table shared a M bossam and two soups and it was plenty of food! I loved the clam kalguksu - the broth was lighter with a pepper-y kick and a generous portion of clams. The chicken kalguksu was more viscous and the soup was on the saltier side. Obviously the bossam was a table fav and we especially enjoyed the white kimchi!

It's probably due to them taking your order while in line so that almost as soon as you sit down your food arrives. The banchan was really good especially the green one which I think was mustard greens. We order the Bossam (medium) and Spicy Seafood Kalguksu The Bossam was delicious but maybe a bit too much fat for my taste but I think that's just personal preference. What totally blew us away was the spicy seafood kalguksu. The broth was so savory and the noodles were silky and bouncy. Definitely getting this again but my hubby might do his with extra spice. The portions are huge so meant to be shared and you will have leftovers. The only thing they were stingy with was napkins. I might have to bring my own Kleenex next time.

We initially provided our order to an Asian server, but were later assisted by a different Hispanic/Latina waitress. A male staff member also checked in with a thumbs‑up/thumbs‑down gesture, which felt unclear and added to the overall inconsistency. I generally prefer when servers take orders with a notepad. While many can remember everything perfectly without one, in this case it would have helped -- we never received our water, and the waitress had to reconfirm our meat selection. Small details like that affected the flow of the meal. The food was decent. I would reorder the Yuzu Ratan ($19) and the Basque Cheesecake ($11), as those were the highlights. However, the Mango Margarita ($15) didn't taste like mango at all, and my boyfriend chose not to correct it. Overall, the dishes and drinks were just average. We've been trying to explore neighborhoods outside of our usual Koreatown and Silver Lake spots, so it was disappointing that this experience didn't stand out more. The restaurant does offer reservations, which is convenient, but the service and attention to detail could use improvement.

While this may be a factor of it being delivered, the noodles were extremely mushy. Not even slightly softer than al dente, but very bloated. I could not even finish the bowl since the noodle texture made it not that great. The spiciness of the soup seemed to overwhelm the flavor of the broth itself, which was disappointing. However, the portion sizes of both the noodle soup and dumplings were great. I could tell the quality of the ingredients was high, especially with a mountain of vegetables and 3 dumplings already coming with the bowl. The dumplings were soft and honestly the star of the meal, I would've loved a specialty sauce to go with it. The kimchi was SPICY as well but tasty. I don't want to knock it down to 3 stars as I felt like it's unfair that I got takeout, but there's a chance if I'm in town again I would rather try the original kalguksu soup in person for a chance that the noodle soup is a better texture.

Whenever I'm in the area and have the chance, I make it a point to eat here--it's genuinely that good. What sets them apart is their phenomenal sauces. I am notoriously picky about spaghetti Bolognese because most places make it watery and flavorless, but their version is on another level. It is rich in umami, deeply flavorful, thick, and has that wonderful, luxurious fatty texture that lingers on the tongue. It's so good that the only spaghetti I've ever had that competes with it is the one I make myself! Beyond the incredible food, I love that every pasta order comes with a piece of bread and a salad, and they have a great selection of wine to pair with your meal. Very tiny restaurant too, like sardine can size. My only minor gripes are logistical: they close between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM, which can make timing a bit tricky, and the hostesses can sometimes be a bit distracted chatting or on their phones, occasionally seeming annoyed if you need something. But honestly? I come here for the food, not the service, and the food completely makes up for it. If you love Japanese-style Italian pasta, do yourself a favor and check this place out. It's a hidden gem!
