Noodle shop Maruto — Restaurant in Kyoto

We came here a few days ago, on May 10th after a long morning of walking all over the east side of Kyoto. My wife really wanted to try some ramen in Japan, and we were lucky to spot this place near a popular shopping street. A nice staff member was waiting for us at the top of the steps asking us if we want to come in, and seeing that there was a non pork option, we were pretty interested.

The food was amazing! The broth tasted very good, and they even gave us little miso bottles that we can mix into spoonfuls of the broth that would each provide a very interesting flavor.

It looked very unassuming from the narrow steps outside leading onto the 1st floor Restaurant, and after we bought our meal tickets from the automated machine next to the entrance, we were greeted and brought to our table. The Ramens came quickly and we were impressed by the depth of flavours, the deep Umami the chicken broth had.

The set menu is very good. I couldn't eat all of it so I shared it with my wife. The ramen itself was one of the best I had during my stay in Japan. The broth is very flavorful and the chashu rice was super good as well. Try all the miso as well! The service was awesome as well. The employee was really thoughtful and got us an extra bowl for sharing even though we didn't ask for it. Overall, the price wasn't too bad either, so if you're in the mood for ramen around here, I highly suggest it! It's on the second floor and a little hard to find, but it's worth it. You have to order on the machine before...
