" Maru Ramen is my go-to spot for comfort food! The hangover ramen is a lifesaver after a long week. I love how quickly the food comes out, perfect for when you're short on time. The portion sizes are generous too, making it great value for money. The staff are always so friendly, which makes the experience even better. I highly recommend this place to anyone in Ithaca looking for a warm bowl of goodness! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations thanks to all the glowing reviews, but I'm afraid Maru Ramen didn't quite hit the mark for me. The ramen was decent, but it lacked the depth I was hoping for. I found the toppings mundane and the broth uninspiring. However, it was pleasantly packaged in an inviting atmosphere, and the service was terrific, which I appreciate. But when it comes to ramen, it's all about that broth for me. " (*Curated Review*)

" Maru Ramen has an incredibly cozy vibe that perfectly complements their delicious food. I can’t recommend the dumplings enough—they are absolutely delightful! I had the Spicy Seafood Ramen, and while I expected it to be over-the-top spicy, I found it had a nice balance. Truly an enjoyable meal. The staff were quick and friendly, which only added to my overall impression. Can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Maru Ramen is an interesting place. I tried their bulgogi ramen, and while the flavors were nice, I wish there had been more depth. The service was swift, which I appreciated after a long day. The atmosphere seemed a bit rushed, but overall, it was a nice meal. I think I'd try a different dish next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is a spot I stumbled upon during a recent trip to Ithaca and I couldn’t be happier! The pork katsu I tried was exquisite and the ramen—it was definitely made with heart! The service was quick, and the ambiance felt very Japanese yet modern. I loved everything from the decor to the food. The only downside was finding parking, but once inside, it was all worth it. Don't miss out on this gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" A good experience overall, but I feel like the hype may have set my expectations a bit too high. The ramen was good, but I've had better elsewhere. I enjoyed the hangover ramen, which was flavorful, but the broth could have been richer. Service was excellent; they were attentive and quick, which I appreciated. I am not sure if I would return, but I wouldn’t rule it out. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Maru Ramen last week and was pleasantly surprised by how authentic everything tasted. The spicy seafood ramen was excellent—definitely not for those who shy away from heat! The wait staff were friendly, and I appreciated their recommendations. The atmosphere was cozy, and I found it perfect for a casual meal. I will be back for sure, especially to try their vegan options! " (*Curated Review*)
