Great experience at Marugame Udon! The udon was fresh and chewy, the broth was flavorful, and the tempura topping was crispy and delicious. The drink was refreshing as well. Service was fast and friendly, and the restaurant had a clean, comfortable atmosphere. I would definitely come back again.

It is a great spot for comforting and authentic Japanese food. The udon noodles were freshly made, thick, and perfectly chewy, and the broth was light yet very flavorful. I appreciated being able to customize the bowl with different toppings, which made the experience fun and satisfying. The service was fast and well organized, even when there was a line, and the prices were reasonable for the quality and portion size. A solid choice for a quick, delicious meal if you’re craving udon in Berkeley.

8/10 (this location) | 9/10 overall How can you go wrong with Marugame Udon? Seriously. It’s one of those spots that just hits every time. This location gets an 8/10 from me—still solid, still satisfying—but overall, the brand is easily a 9/10 because it’s just sooooo good. If you’re going for the first time (or even if you’re not), do yourself a favor and get the beef or nikutama. The broth is rich, savory, and comforting, and the noodles have that perfect chewy texture that makes every bite worth it. It’s simple food done really well. And don’t skimp on the tempura. That’s where people me

My son attends UC Berkeley, so I come to Berkeley at the beginning of each semester. This time, he took me to Marugame Udon, and it was such a great experience. The food was simple, fresh, and delicious, and I loved the whole concept. There’s nothing like this where I live — definitely one of the best!
