Service: you buy your food at the counter and they serve it to your table if you wanna dine in. The inari was pretty worth it given the size. Tho I do see how it is a little overly sweet which overpower the flavor of the topping. Least favorite that I got was the shrimp. It is a nice cute little store with free water. The area also looks and feels clean. read more

Mari Mari - Spicy Crab, Garlic Shrimp, Spicy Chicken - Ramen Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Mari Mari is a no-frills, affordable Asian fusion restaurant offering a variety of dishes, including ramen and inari. The food is delicious and satisfying overall. ---------------------------------- My only complaint is that I requested "no egg" in my ramen, but it was still served with an egg. While I'm not allergic, eggs don't digest well for me and I gave it to my friend who was with me. Because of this experience, I would recommend that individuals with a serious egg allergy exercise caution, as dietary requests may not always be accommodated. read more

Got lost wondering around Philly yesterday. We decided to eat at the nearest place since we were lost and places are closing soon. We went into MariMari. I ordered the kimchi ramen and garlic scallop inari. All was delish!! The chashu can be softer and I'd like to have the other half of the egg if possible. The egg was delish...but only half was served. The water dispenser is clogged so it trickles and sucks when you're real thirsty for some water. Otherwise, food and service was fabulous! I will definitely come visit again. I'll try the other items on the menu next time. My girlfriends were all very please with the food as well! read more

If you are craving sushi but don't want to sit down for long and feel overwhelmed by options, go to Mari Mari. It's super casual and especially great for beginners. Items are on display which is super helpful. Prices are fantastic! Sushi comes out pretty quickly, the piece sizes are perfect, they're not overstuffed with rice. I loved the furfake that came with it too! The inaris were a bit overwhelming and heavy on the respective sauces. I don't know if it is just a personal preference but I personally will be sticking to the sushi when I go back. read more

Mari Mari - Ramen Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This was my first visit to Mari Mari, and I look forward to returning! I liked seeing all of the display of their different Inaris. However, I found my salmon one to be a bit bland. I may try the garlic shrimp or mushroom next time to make my final call about Inaris. I think Mari Mari is a great option for sushi and non sushi lovers alike. It's a great intro for those that are freaked out by raw seafood, as the majority are cooked options such as chicken katsu, calamari, beef bulbogi etc. I opted for the raw salmon +1, katsu and calamari. The rolls were formed well, rice seasoning good, all around a solid 3 roll combo for appx $14 including tax. The yuzuade was good for a "treat yourself" day, but I'm not usually one to spend on drinks. For $5 it was okay, but not something I'd get again. I look forward to returning because they actually have chicken based ran tan miso ramen which is super exciting for me since it's always offered with pork and I personally don't eat pork ! read more

- Service: Friendly staff. They prepared my pick-up order very fast. - Ambiance: Nice and clean store. However, it's pretty small and doesn't have much seatings. - Food: We were hyped up by a nice concept of Korean-Japanese fusion kind of sushi/inari they have here, but we unfortunately ended up being disappointing. The tofu skin of the inari is so sweet that it overpowers everything else. The rice base is insanely sweet, which it made us bored of the food really fast. The rolls are small and mediocre at best. Most of the ingredients here just don't feel fresh at all (from the chicken, salmon, bulgogi, etc), everything seems like it sits in the fridge/case for a long time. $50 for all of these (which included $5 off from the discount we had already), which is pretty fair I'd say. I would not come back, but to each their own. read more

A small place to stop by for a quick lunch! Went with a group of 5 and nearly wasn't able to sit down in this small establishment but made some space. The spicy udon was quite good and the 3 inari options chosen were delicious! The scallops were creamy, the eel was cooked well, and the crab was tasty. It was surprisingly very filling and overall an enjoyable lunch. read more

When I used to work in Center City, if I didn't have lunch packed, Mari Mari was a good place to grab a quick lunch that was both light and filling. My manager actually ended up liking it a lot after I introduced her to it after taking it back to the office one time. I was previously familiar with their Front St location and grabbed a quick bite from them before after shopping at H Mart, being drawn in by their pretty purple Yuzu-ade drink pouches. Food and Drink Ordered: * worth trying - [3 Mari Roll Combo*]: I ordered brown rice as the base, fried crab, sweet potato, and Korean BBQ as the fillings, and spicy mayo as the sauce. The rolls were simple but had good flavor, with an underlying sweet flavor. The only thing I didn't like was that the Korean BBQ texture was a bit grainy. I like the puffed rice that comes as a side, which adds a nice additional texture. - [Unagi Inari]: I thought that the tofu skin of the inari was too sweet and there is too much eel sauce to eel ratio. - [Yuzu-ade*]: I liked that this wasn't too sweet and had the perfect amount of tartness. I think the addition of the lime slice and thyme give the drink more depth. Would I go back? : Only if I'm in need of a quick meal. Because Mari Mari is a fast-casual place, the food will never be amazing but the taste is usually pretty reliable and a solid meal. read more

Love love this ramen x inari shop in Center City! It's the perfect place to grab a quick to-go dinner (highly recommend a box of their inari - sushi rice stuffed into fried tofu pouches with yummy protein toppings like garlic shrimp). Also a great spot for a casual sit down ramen with friends. You order at the counter and service is pretty fast. The seating inside is limited but haven't had a problem getting a table (but might need to wait a couple minutes). read more

I stopped by Mari Mari while in Philly and really enjoyed it! It's a Korean-Japanese fusion spot with a really cute interior. There are cozy table seats and even a little bar area if you want to dine in. We ordered to-go and tried a few flavors of their inari. My favorites were the salmon and unagi - super tender, flavorful, and fresh. The scallop inari is made with dried scallops which I wasn't expecting but the flavor was good. The mushroom garlic was also an interesting inari flavor but it worked. Everything was packaged neatly, and the service was quick and friendly. read more

I love Mari Mari for a quick stop for asian fusion eats while walking to and from the gayborhood area off of 13th in Center City. When my little one has a hankering for ramen and I want some inari, we can both get what we are craving and with fresh ingredients made in an authentic way. I also love their fresh juices that can range from Yuzi to Lavender lemonade. This is a great spot for sushi as well and prices are reasonable, service is friendly and quick, and it's a local business to support in Philly. read more

$11.95 for three rolls of sushi is almost unheard of these days! Mari Mari came through with the deal and I was enticed to stop by for lunch. Everything on the menu looked excellent, especially the Inari. I'll be trying that next time. For now, I want to focus on what I got. Sweet potato, spicy tuna and Philly avocado rolls. All incredibly delicious! Philly avo was my top favorite and the sweet po came in second. The employee at the counter was kind, as I informed her it was my first time visiting and she provided a quick breakdown of the menu. There's a great variety of beverages at the front, too. The seating and flooring appeared to be clean and well-kept. I should have asked for more soy sauce, as they only provide a small container of it. Other than that, everything was nicely packaged and traveled well in the bag. I'll definitely be returning! read more

we came for the ramen which was ok. Very generous size, good ingredients tasty noodles.

cute and easy spot for a quick mid workday lunch! they have a lot of variety here, but the flavor choices for the rolls are a bit unconventional and not appealing to me. i ended up ordering x2 of the salmon w scallion, and x1 of the chicken katsu. the chicken katsu roll was dry, and honestly it just felt like it shouldn't have been made into a sushi roll. the salmon w scallion was better, but i would have preferred avocado over scallion. there honestly weren't very many fish options which was quite disappointing, even the tuna looked like it was canned tuna instead of fresh raw tuna. i also got the salmon tataki inari which tasted exactly how i expected. it was quite flavorful and much better than the sushi rolls. service was good and fast, the cashier was very friendly and brought my food to my table. this is a good spot for a quick solo lunch, several people (including me) were eating by themselves, so i didn't feel awkward or alone. read more

Delicious. I love that the sushi is warm and fresh. This is a good place to eat an affordable meal.

Ahhh, where do I begin with this great place. I'm pretty sure I came here 3 days in a row. I love this place. What I love most about it is their menu. This place is the place that introduced me to inari's. Imagine how sad I was when I realized I spent most of my life not knowing about it, lol. It's a tofu pouch filled with rice, meat or veggies, and variety of sauces. It's soooooo good. The best part is that each one is under $4. The chicken, spicy crab, Tuna mayo, and garlic mushroom inari's are all $2.95. So you can get 3 for less than $10. My girl also loves the ramen here (yes, they have ramen, too). I tried it, and it really is solid for a place that isn't exclusively a ramen spot. They also have some solid sushi. I tried it and liked it too. The service isn't bad at all. If your going to place an order for pickup, it usually takes about 20 minutes to be ready. I'd recommend doing that. There's seating inside but not a lot. Additionally, if it's packed, it can get pretty warm cause they have like a fan and a portable air conditioner. read more

Mari Mari - Spicy Crab Inari Cheesesteak Bulgogi - Ramen Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

FOOD We ordered the tonkatsu and tan tan ramens and an assorted variety of inaris. The ramen was flavorful with ample toppings and great if you're craving ramen while in the area. It's not the best ramen I've had, but it hits the spot for a warm meal on a cold day. The inaris, on the other hand, were absolutely amazing. They were packed with umami flavor, not too salty, and a great food for dining in or to-go. There wasn't a flavor that we tried so far that we didn't like (crab, salmon, etc.). DRINKS We tried three of the punches they offered: the yuzu ade, strawberry lemonade, and the pineapple punch. The yuzu ade was sweet, tart, and refreshing, and the purple color really caught our attention. The strawberry ade was a little too tart for our taste but a great drink if you love lemonade. The strawberry flavor was a little lacking. Finally, the pineapple punch was the star of the show. It was flavorful, not too sweet, and the pineapple flavor was a refreshing contrast to our hot meals. SERVICE The staff were kind and friendly. One of the lemonade pouches had a leak in it when we picked it up, and they were very gracious about the mess. AMBIANCE The store had a good amount of seating and was a great place to catch up with friends. We came around 5pm and were able to grab seats, though the place quickly filled up by 6:30pm. The interior is clean and spacious enough to not feel too close to other restaurant-goers. PARKING Paid street parking is available at a limited capacity. Parking garages are also within walking distance. read more

The spicy pork udon was not soup but thick sauce that was on the sweeter side. It was hard to finish to be honest. The Mari Mari fried kim chi was like sugary sweet and not what I expected. I came thinking it had sushi and Japanese style ramen. "Sushi" is all cooked proteins or veggies. Two items + tip over $20. If you want savory this might not be the place to go. The people behind the counter are nice and the place is clean and has seating. You order at the counter and sit down and they'll bring your order out. If you like food on the sweeter side this is your golden ticket or simple veggie rolls..come here. read more

I saw their post on instagram and while I was walking around Midtown Village festival I decided to give it a try. This eatery is around the corner of 13 and chestnut. Very clean with the menu on display as well as in printed flyers. The staff and owner were very friendly and welcoming. Near the register you can see the inaris on display with the name of each kind. All of them looked very inviting and beautifully presented with the sauce dripping over. Each kind had a lot of fillings with flavorful sauce drizzled on top. Very delicious, the spicy kinds had a very nice kick but still bearable. The container for the takeout had clear sturdy plastic to and was securely taped. Besides Inari, they also serve sushi rolls and ramen. You can create your own combo by choosing the rice (white, purple, or brown) and then the fillings. I saw how the staff prepared the Inakis when he blow torched the protein to give smoky flavor then finished it by drizzling the sauce on top Definitely a great addition to center city eateries. read more

First had Mari Mari at their Front st. Location and have been missing the noodles since. As good as I remembered. Not a soup, just very saucy and loaded with veggies. A tolerable spicy and delicious.

The worst sushi I've ever had. Ordered the Mari roll combo (white rice) - Crab mayo, Fried crab, Spicy tuna & garlic mushroom tataki & salmon tataki. The rolls were so poorly wrapped and the spicy tuna was cooked. COOKED! It tasted like the tuna came from a can. And the crab rolls (again, poorly wrapped) severely lacked in flavor and were basically the same. The tataki dishes also severely lacked in flavor. Everything was basically just poorly seasoned white rice. I will never order from here again, of that I am sure. To call this sushi is a shame. read more

I came here after a long day and it did not disappoint!! I have loved sushi since childhood but it has been challenging since developing an allergy to raw fish. They have so many cooked options - I got and loved the purple rice combo with chicken, egg, and sweet potato. I also got two additional things for under $35. For sushi, that is an unbeatable price - though acknowledge that likely somewhat cheaper given did not order raw fish options. I had plenty of leftovers as well. read more

Delicious and quick fast-casual restaurant in the city! I really enjoyed the kimbap maki. It's not necessarily sushi because the fillings are not all fish. The fillings range from beef, calamari, tuna to vegetable options. I tried the combo set which includes 3 maki options for ~$12. For an additional fee, you can upgrade your white rice to purple rice, or upgrade your filling options to special options like salmon. The purple rice paired really well with all the options. It was definitely worth trying. read more

We have passed Mari Mari so many times and decided to pop in and try it out. We checked out the menu online, but honestly, I felt that it was much easier to just order in person, seeing all the options on display in front of me made it much easier. The service is very fast too, so it was no issue. I loved the test of the spicy crab and the eel inari the most, both brought something different that I wasn't expecting. I would come back to Mari Mari to try out some of the rolls, I really liked that you could customize the rolls with so many different options. Mari Mari wasn't mind blowing, but everything tasted great, the service was great, and the price was reasonable so I really would come back soon read more

Otherwise, I would have passed by without a second look. The tofu bowl is delicious. With a variety of toppings to choose from, anyone can find one to fit their taste. Though the restaurant itself is small, the menu is mighty, and the service is excellent. If you are looking for something different, I highly recommend Mari Mari. read more

I had a great takeout experience here and I think these other reviews are a little too critical! VERY nice and clean place and staff.

I liked learning about inari and I thought the salmon one was tasty and a nice size. Pork udon was spicy but delicious. The three roll combo is a nice and cheap meal for two skinny people to split (not me). My meal was beautifully packaged for me to carry home and watch Netflix with.
