Marugen Ramen's Signature Dishes
One of the standout items on Marugen Ramen’s menu is the
Aged Soy Sauce Ramen with Pork, known affectionately as
Niku Soba. This dish is meticulously crafted as each bowl is prepared to order, featuring a rich broth made by simmering tender pork in a hand-cooked pot, complemented by the chewy noodles uniquely made by the restaurant. The dish is topped with yuzu pepper paste, green onions, and a melange of Japanese garnishes that contribute to an unforgettable taste experience.
Several variations, including
Seasoned Egg Niku Soba and
Spicy Niku Soba, are also well-loved by the frequent patrons. Additionally, all ramen dishes can be customized with a 50% lower carbohydrate option for health-conscious diners. With plenty of vegetable-rich meals and other nutritious choices, it’s no wonder that Marugen keeps guests returning for more.
Satisfying Sides and Atmosphere
In addition to the enticing ramen offerings, Marugen Ramen also features must-try side dishes such as
Marugen Gyoza, savory
Hot Plate Egg Fried Rice, and flavorful
Fried Chicken. To complete your meal, patrons often indulge in the popular
Soft Serve Ice Cream.
