" Maru is a must-visit for Korean food lovers! The flavors were powerful and brought me back to my time abroad. The atmosphere was inviting with friendly staff who helped us navigate the menu. If you visit, don’t miss the dumplings; they were a highlight! Overall, a fantastic experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying out Maru, but I was disappointed. While there were some decent dishes, a few were under-seasoned, which was a letdown given the rave reviews. The service was friendly, but a bit slow during peak hours. The atmosphere was nice enough, but I expected a little more authenticity in the flavors. I might try it again to see if it was an off day. " (*Curated Review*)

" Maru is a delightful restaurant! The dishes are full of authentic flavors and the portions are generous. I especially loved their kimchi, which tasted homemade. The service was also quite friendly, though there was a slight delay in getting our drinks. The ambiance is cozy, making it a great place for family gatherings. I’m definitely going back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an amazing dining experience at Maru! The bibimbap was truly authentic and packed with flavors. The service was quick, and the staff were attentive. I definitely recommend trying their kimchi pancakes; they were crispy and delicious. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for dinner with family or friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I tried Maru for dinner one evening and enjoyed it. The fried chicken was crispy and the flavor was excellent. The service was attentive and friendly throughout our meal.

" My experience at Maru left me wanting more. Although the food was decent, I was hoping for a more authentic experience. The staff were friendly, but the service felt a bit scattershot, especially when ordering. The atmosphere was inviting, but not enough to make up for the food quality. Perhaps next time will be better. " (*Curated Review*)

" After a long day, I stopped by Maru for dinner and left feeling satisfied. The kimchi stew warmed me up, and the service was prompt and friendly. However, I found the portions to be a bit smaller than what I typically get at other Korean restaurants. While everything tasted good, I wanted more bang for my buck. Still, a nice place to enjoy some authentic flavors. " (*Curated Review*)
