    I have driven from vegas to this location 3 times because i cannot stop craving it. i wish there was a location in vegas! the food is absolutely scrumptious. everything is so flavorful! i highly recommend this place! please open a location in vegas!

    Creamy broth. Chicken katsu.

    I liked the concise and simple menu. Suggested food selection was great - tonkatsu. Shrimp tempura was freshly made. The sauces and condiments made the food tastier and yummier.

    A classic spot! I love their beef sukiyaki udon, and they make their noodles fresh! Their lunch line system works well so that you can add any toppings that you'd like along with any tempura, dumplings, croquettes. It's a casual spot.

    Marugame Udon is popping up everywhere which is great. I do enjoy their freshly made udon plus quality toppings and tasty appetizers. I was in the Chino Hills neighborhood. I saw them and had to pay them a visit. It's located in the Rolling Ridge Plaza. Self-ordering kiosk is towards the back on the left side. If you're dining in, you'll want to walk to the right upon entry to place your order. Good and comfortable interior dining space. Condiments and water station needed some attention and care unfortunately. I used the kiosk to order. Got two udon bowls (Nikutama Udon and Creamy Broth Udon), a few appetizers (sweet potato, pumpkin tempura, tamagoyaki tempura, potato croquette), and one calamansi drink. Everything was very fresh. Taste and flavors were on point. Appetizers were in good size. Well done! Since I did take-out, I didn't have any interactions with the staff. My order was placed at the pick-up shelf. The wait wasn't too long. One small observation, the packaging could have been better. I asked for utensils and they were all over the place in the bag as though they were just thrown in there. When you see the photo, you'll understand what I mean. I'm usually not picky about this stuff, but it would have been nice if the staff offered some attention and care when packaging. Hence, 4 stars! Will I be back? Sure I will be back. Perhaps dine-in is best next time.

    I was expecting a comforting, piping hot bowl on a cold night, but ended up pretty disappointed. I've had this in Japan and was really looking forward to eating here, but it didn't come close. The nikutama udon was only warm rather than hot, and the broth tasted overly salty with a slight sweetness. I added green onions and flakes, but the flakes quickly became soggy in the soup. I also ordered crispy katsu, which was actually quite fresh and tender, and helped give an extra star. I also tried a battered chickenc tempura shrimp, and battered sausage that was cold and seems left out for a while. I can't say the meal was enjoyable.

    Went to Marugame Udon with a few friends and had to try this SoCal location since I love going to the one in SF. This was the closest one to us, and it definitely lived up to what I was expecting. I tried their new Bolognese udon, and it did not disappoint. It had a really rich, savory tomato flavor that paired surprisingly well with the chewy udon noodles. It's a little different from the usual udon dishes, but that's what made it stand out. I would definitely get it again, especially since udon is one of my favorite types of noodles. My friends got the Nikutama udon, which was also really good. You can tell the udon is freshly made, with that perfect chewy texture. We also grabbed some of their tempura sides, and they were crispy, light, and super satisfying. The workers were really nice, and the whole setup runs pretty smoothly even when it gets busy. The space itself is pretty spacious with lots of seating, so it's great for groups. It has a casual, lively feel with people coming in and out, grabbing trays, and building their meals, which adds to the overall experience.

    The #1, Zuchini and Shrimp Tempura and the #3 Potato Croquette and Sweet Potato Tempura

    This is a Lunch Line style service where you get your tray and request your food that is made to order, and once you order you can select some tempura add ons, I appreciate the fact you can request freshly made tempura if you'd like. The food was flavorful and very reminiscent of my time in Japan. The sauce station could have used a bit more attention since it was pretty busy and picked over, but over all it was a great experience and the food was again very delicious ohh and affordable which we love! The tables were well spaced apart and the seats were comfortable. I liked that while you could bus your own table there was still staff coming around offering to pick up your trays and finished trays for you. I have been to one other Marugame and enjoyed my experience there as well.

    Nikutama and Creamy Broth Udon-Tonkotsu Style
    Arielle H.

    Excited to finally get to try Marugame Udon! They have a classic simple menu with seasonal dishes that rotate. Its mainly self service cafeteria style. The udon noodles were perfectly chewy and there's a lot in a regular sized portion. The flavor is there and the green onions and tempura flakes give it an extra crunch. My only con is I wish the soup was hotter. A big star of the show is the tempura! There are many options of different vegetables and meats freshly fried. Its crunchy, its good, its amazing. Don't skip it!

    We LOVE to come to this plaza as a pit stop on the way home. I like to grab some OMOMO matcha tea before heading home. This time we noticed that there was a brand new MARUGAME UDON that opened up right next door... NIKUTAMA UDON: 10/10 It was very Savory and featured simmered beef, onions and a soft-boiled egg. It was perfection in a bowl and the portions were big enough for 2 people to share with us what we did... SHRIMP TEMPURA: 10/10 It came out nice and hot. It also has a very nice and crispy texture in the outside while preserving the soft texture of the shrimp inside... SERVICE: It was mostly self service. You just have to get in line, tell them what you want to order and pay at the cashier towards the end of the line. Then, you just find an open table to sit at... My first time having Marugame Udon was in Hawaii and I always wished they would open up in California. Looks like my wish came true and I believe they are opening up more locations all over the country!!! KEEP ROCKN MARUGAME UDON!!!

    Ellen M.

    Pros: Good location with ample parking Lots of staff to help you guide your selections as you go down the line Lots of variety in their menu and you can customize as you wish They make their own noodles Cons: Ordering can be confusing hate getting nickeled and dimed to death arrived just when their promotional table was packing up, but she still would not let us play; we were there about 2 minutes before it ended broth lacked flavor Pro tip: Make sure you ask that your broth and noodles are HOT. The noodles are pre-cooked and hang around a while. They can be cold.

    Curry Nikutama with a soft egg. Really tasty!
    Amy K.

    We went again recently & I would give it a 4.5 stars. The noodles were nicely al dente & the broth was unctuous & flavorful as usual. The green onions & crispy tempura flakes all add to the texture & flavor. My dad & I both felt like the broth isn't hot enough. The dining room is kept at a pretty chilly temperature so by the time you pick your tempura sides, drinks & get down to the cashier, then grab utensils, napkins, dipping sauce before sitting down, the broth is almost luke warm. I like my noodle soups piping hot f steaming.

    Anna W.

    Got the kitsune which is my go to. The process is very easy: you go down the line telling the server which noodle broth you want, then grab the tempuras you want after. You pay and find seating. This location has more seating than the ones I've been to before. Service was fast and friendly, and the atmosphere was good too, I was able to talk to my friends without it being too loud.

The staff was okay, but unfortunately the experience was not great. The biggest problem was the temperature inside the restaurant. It was over 100°F outside, and it felt like the AC was not working properly. I would guess it was around 88-90°F inside. Eating a hot bowl of noodle soup in that kind of heat had me sweating the whole time and constantly drinking ice water just to cool down. I ordered the Signature Beef Noodle Soup, but it only came with a few thin slices of beef. For the price, I expected more. Honestly, compared with a good Vietnamese pho, I think Vietnamese pho is much better in both flavor and value. Maybe we just visited on a bad day, but with the restaurant being so hot and the soup not being particularly impressive, this was not a place I would rush back to.

The Beef and Corn Skewers were fantastic. The Biang Biang Spicy Hand-Ripped Noodles was ok. Thought it would be spectacular based upon other people's reviews, but it was alright. The Fried Mixed Vegetables was a little bit over whelming. The sauce was a little strong. Would be better if it was a little lighter. Overall, the foods were good. The only negative thing here was they were mopping the floor while we were still eating. I know it was close to closing time, but couldn't they just wait till everyone leaves before mopping the floor? I know they want to go home too, but the smell of the chemical made the dining experience less enjoyable.

One thing to keep in mind is that the bowls don't automatically include the salted egg, so you'll have to shell out a few extra dollars if you want that classic topping. While the meal itself was a hit, the logistics of the meal were a bit more frustrating. The service was fairly lackluster and felt mostly absent; we waited quite a while for attention, and the overall pace was very slow. It's the kind of place where you have to be proactive if you need a refill or the check. Additionally, the cleanliness of the restaurant is a major concern. Everything felt "sticky" from the tables to the floors and the bathrooms were definitely not well-maintained. It's hard to fully enjoy a premium-priced meal when the environment feels a bit neglected. On a brighter note, the location is very convenient. Since it's tucked into a large strip mall, parking is incredibly easy and stress-free, which isn't always the case in Chino Hills. If you are a "food first" person who doesn't mind a bit of grit and slow service, the ramen is worth a try, but the management could definitely step up the cleaning
