I finally got to try the food at Marugame Udon. My friend Carrie asked me if I wanted to accompany her to the nearest location, which is in Torrance. I immediately said: YES!
It was exciting to see that this location was close by. When we arrived, it was past lunchtime and too early for dinner, so it was empty. We studied the menu on the board, though we had already decided to get their specialty, Nikutama Udon, served with sweet beef, scallions, egg, and tempura flakes! It was nice to see the Udon being cooked fresh.
After we ordered the Udon of our choice, we could choose several items to accompany our udon bowl. They had shrimp, squid, chicken tempura, and chicken katsu. In addition to these, they also offer some rice bowls.
Carrie and I really enjoyed our Nikutama Udon. Next time, I would like to try the curry nikutama and perhaps a few more shrimp tempuras, which are light and delicious.
Marugame Udon is at the restaurant row on the corner of Torrance Blvd. and Hawthorne in Torrance, California. They have numerous locations in California, Hawaii, Texas and Washington.
