The ordering system is similar to Ichiran Ramen; you can choose the noodle firmness, broth consistency, spiciness, green onions, oil level, and MSG amount . The basic ramen is only $13. I added a soft-boiled egg and pickled cabbage for $2 each. Although the pickled cabbage is really expensive , I can't help it, I'm a pickled cabbage addict! The pickled cabbage paired with the rich tonkotsu broth was refreshing. The broth was flavorful but not greasy, the noodles were chewy and springy, and the portion size was just right. Overall, it's incredibly good value for money; no wonder there's always a queue. After eating, you really get that "Ah~ this is the taste of happiness" feeling

The vegetarian was loaded with sesame seeds. Now i love those seeds but it was way too much for my liking. Too much seeds to chew on. They also do not put any vegetables on like Hawaii does. Everything is ala carte and that adds up. I simply chose the ramen version without all the add ons. The broth was yummy but again with the loaded seeds, it made it challenging to just drink the soup. I will say, Hawaii has by far better ramen, but this place was ok too. Pricey for for what you get though.

There was a lot of hype around this place when it first opened and i passed by it many times. I…read moredecided to check it out for dinner, mostly to check it off my list of Japanese restaurants to try. As a transit user, It's conveniently located across the street from chinatown stadium skytrain station. I like that it opens a bit later until 10pm so i can go there after an evening movie at international village a 5 minute walk away. There was basically no queue to order so i was able to order as soon as i walked into the restaurant. I told the staff i was a first time customer and asked what was the most popular dish, and they said number 5 which is the nikutama udon. It comes with sweet beef, BK sauce, and onsen eggs on top of thick udon noodles. The braised sweet beef was alright in terms of flavor and it definitely hit the spot. It's by far the best ingredient in the udon. I had never tried onsen eggs before, and I didn't really care for them. It's basically eggs that were cooked slowly at a low temperature. The texture and appearance is unusual in my opinion. i thought the nikutama udon overall was pretty good and it has unique flavors and ingredients. It's not amazing but I can understand why people love the unique BK sauce's flavors. There's not many customization options but you can get the dish served hot or cold, and you can choose to get a regular version or larger version for only $1.50 more. There's apparently a lot of hype around the BK sauce but i didn't find it that great. It has a unique combination of salty, sweet, and smoky flavors. The portion size is a little smaller than i prefer so i'd definitely get the large size. But i think most people will find the regular size just fine. I was able to eat my whole dish within 5-7 minutes and im not a person that wolfs down their meal quickly. Price-wise, the cost of their udon is fair. They are around $12-13. Slightly cheaper than other ramen places. The tempura add-ons are expensive in my opinion but I saw lots of folks buying them anyways. At the time, other ramen places like Kinton Ramen had a $15 set meal, which I thought was a better deal because it came with a special summer drink and gyoza. I wish Marugame's nikutama udon had something like this. Like adding a choice of a couple tempura and a drink for a similar price. The dining area was a little smaller than expected because half of it was closed at the time. But I was still able to find a seat at the counter where i could eat my dish. They don't use a wait staff but it's cafeteria style where you get the food at the counter and bring your dish to the table, and bring it back to the cleaning area yourself. I like that you can get your own water at a tap, napkins, utensils, and cups too instead of asking for them at the counter. The dining area was pretty clean and spacious. Overall, I give Marugame 4 stars out of 5. You should definitely check it out at least once if you are a fan of Japanese udon. Try the nikutama udon with BK sauce and see if you'll like it too.

There is the ordering area after you enter and the seating area to the left. You order at the first counter for the udon or rice bowls, which they'll assemble for you on the spot, or bring it to your table if they are waiting on udon noodles. Then you move left where you can self-serve the tempura items, and then pay at the cashier. Utensils, sauces, and water are off to a counter in the seat area, and there's a return area to bring back your empty bowls/trays. Not super busy when we got there on a weekend night, but filled up as an event at BC Place was ending. We got the beef udon with the classic soup, the beef rice bowl that has the runny egg, the chicken katsu curry udon, and a few tempura items. My favorite was definitely the curry udon, since the curry soup/sauce had more flavor. Out of the fried items, the shrimp tempura is delicious, and the zucchini tempura has a nice sweetness to it. Udon noodles were pretty good, has a nice solid texture to them. Overall bill was $50ish for 3 people. And since this is basically fast food, you don't necessarily have to tip.

As someone who doesn't have chicken broth (paitan style) ramen, I was really looking forward to the original ramen I ordered but I was a bit disappointed in the flavor profile of the dish. The ramen had both chasu and seaweed paired with thin round noodles. The broth was creamy and had a hint of chicken flavor but even adding several rounds of their soy sauce/salt seasoning they have on the side to adjust your broth to your liking-- I found that the richness of the soup was not what I had expected from the reviews that I read prior to coming here. Overall, a bit disappointed in the flavoring of the broth but maybe we came on an off day. I would be willing to give it a shot again in the future if I had ramen cravings and given that it was very affordable ($11-15 per bowl with tip), but I would probably opt to try another place first.

I ordered the beef noodle soup, and the noodles were prepared well (good texture and not soggy) and the soup had a slight but not overwhelm sour taste from the preserved vegetables. The beef wasn't as tender as it could be, but it wasn't chewy or tough to eat. Prices are reasonable at around $20 after tax and tips. While it wasn't the best or most authentic beef noodle soup I've had, it does hit the spot if I'm craving Taiwanese food downtown or want a hot bowl of noodle soup on a cold day.

I don't know why there is chili in my Taiwanese beef noodle soup. I don't like spicy soup. Lucky I am ok with spice but I wish it is stated in the menu? So if you cannot take spicy food, check with them before ordering. The beef noodle soup is tasty as I do like the addition of pickled vegetables in it, giving a bit of tartness. The beef is tender though the quantity is very little. More noodles than meat ratio. The combo is totally not worth it now that the price has gone up to about $13. If you want rice and noodle for lunch, I think Peaceful Restaurant across the street is a better bet. At least the portion is bigger.

It gets worse and worse! There was a time, a few years back, when I frequented Noodle Box Kitsilano. Then the quality went down...I went a few months ago and although I paid for extra vegetables - there were barely any at all. I went back over the weekend, to give it another chance, I wish I did not. There were hardly any noodles, not a lot of vegetables, and very little tofu. I paid for extra veg and there were really just a few red peppers drowning in sauce. It was all sauce! A gloopy, soggy mess. Edible, but just barely. This was the reason I stopped going months ago, so nothing has changed. My advice is to make your order so clear they cannot screw it up (they probably will) - extra veg, light sauce, a normal amount of protein (I had tofu and there were just a few small pieces, drowning), spice level (be very specific), a regular amount of noodles. read more

Two words: love it. The noodle box has been a staple in kitsilano (and in my lifestyle) for awhile now. The concept is a great one - quick and easy stirfry type dishes with top quality ingredients and an extensive flavour profile that has pleased the palette of every single person I have taken here (from children to old uncles!) My favourite is the thai style peanut sauce dish with tofu and noodles - I'm not a vegetarian but this seems to take the cake. I've tried a lot of different dishes, the curries are great too. The price is right, the staff are great, and the cute little take out boxes add the perfect finishing touch. And, yes, the boxes are necessary - there are always leftovers as the portion sizes are huge! I would definitely recommend this place, they even have beer! read more

Noodle box is great place to stop in for lunch or grab dinner to go. The prices are pretty reasonable and the portions are pretty big.

Hubby likes the teriyaki chicken served over udon. Yummy! The place get's really, really busy on the weekends and at lunch time so save yourself some grief and call ahead and place your order.

Just like most people leaving reviews for this place - I agree that the food is really great! The service is no good though - they take a very long time to get around to you to take your order. Plus the food comes out when it's ready, not at the same time as other meals at your table. If you are happy to wait for it, it is well worth it - the food is amazing. All in all, a good restaurant to eat at - not a great 'restaurant experience' but nevertheless I would probably go back again. read more

The odds of reciting an exact name and order in trying to take someone else's order would be pretty difficult. This type of interaction happened twice in a row, so for that alone we won't bother going again. Service is still a rather important aspect even if it's just picking up. As for the food, it was fine. Not awful, but not impressive either. The spring roll for $2.50 a piece had nothing but a few large chunks of cabbage in it and tasted like heavily used oil. No thanks. We also got a meal with noodles, beef and sweet and sour pork. Maybe it's good value for the quantity, and I thought the beef was decent. But the pork wasn't and the noodles were heavily covered in a salty sauce, which was kind of ok but definitely leaves you feeling greasy. The chicken part of the lemon chicken was good but the sauce had a thick jelly like consistency. There's better, nicer places in the area, so no need to return here. If you want greasy, food court style Chinese take out from a questionably clean establishment and can handle rude interactions, then go for it. But we won't!

Hot & sour soup - better than the competition. Not sure what's special about it, but it stood out. Chongqing deluxe fried rice - one of their signature dishes. Great mix of flavour. Crispy rice with shrimp soup - honestly this would be the one dish that wasn't that great. Rice blocks were crispy, but the shrimp soup was nothing special. I'd skip this dish. Other than the crispy rice, everything is pretty standard compared to similar places out there. Expectations were met. Very good value. I'd gladly eat here again. Recommended.

DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS RESTAURANT! Placed an order from…read moretheir website on Dec 24/25 for Dec 26/25 for pick up! Received the confirmation number in email.. went to pick up and the lady said No order was received. Tried to show her the email and she wouldn't even look at it. She wouldn't even let me try to explain. Our order was almost 200.$ Went home and tried to call because the lady at the front wouldn't even let me talk she kept speaking over me, so was hoping for some else to talk to, she answered and she wgain wouldn't let me talk, she put me on hold for 12 mins finally another lady came on the said they have the order but it isn't ready. They offered 10% discount on a gift card **** very Disappointed and horrible customer service Food: 1/5 | Service: 1/5 | Atmosphere: 1/5 Noise level Not sure Group size 9+ people, Not sure

Was invited to my friends' house for dinner that they ordered from North Garden. It was horrid!!…read more The four dishes had barely any sauces and the meats on all four dishes were overcooked (chicken, pork and beef brisket) and the vegetables were not prepared properly. The Shanghai noodles had cabbage strips that looked like 2x4's!! This was the worst Chinese food I've had in a long time. Thankfully, my friends have told me they will not order from them again.

There's a review further down about the wonton soup having flies and dirty bok choy. I needed…read morewonton soup and thought, "surely that can't be right." Surprise, found a little soup bloated gnat stuck to the inside of the container, along with visibly dirty bok choy. So, you know... can confirm. I get that times are tough, but take a little pride in the veg you're serving. Washing produce is part of running a kitchen. If they didn't wash the bok choy, did they wash anything else? Didn't finish it.

It's rare to find a fast food Chinese restaurant which serves dishes normally reserved for the…read morefamily at home. But this is what Peter (owner/chef) offers at Patterson Wonton House. For example, I had rock cod with two of the healthiest veggies on the planet (sorry kale): bitter melon and Chinese broccoli. Stir fried in black bean sauce - superb - sad that these items are not offered in virtually all Asian restaurants. Decor of restaurant is blah, but the food is fresh, authentic and tasty.
