MARU Downtown is a popular Korean restaurant that serves a variety of dishes. The bibimbap with chicken and braised pork are flavorful and filling, with a range of accompanying vegetables. The menu features many interesting options, including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free choices, all clearly labeled. Prices are very reasonable, offering good value for the amount of food. Customers praise the quality of the dishes, noting that they taste exactly as expected and are better than at many other restaurants at similar prices. The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating, with comfortable booths and plenty of space for different party sizes. Service is friendly and attentive, with fast service even during busy times. The ambiance is great, and the ginger tea is exceptional.
The Udon Noodle and Bibimbap are standout vegetarian dishes. The Kimchi Pancakes are a popular appetizer. The restaurant has a cozy, almost hole-in-the-wall feel, with a party room in the back and an open kitchen. Customers highlight the great hospitality and the authentic, delicious Korean cuisine.
