Maruyama Picante — Restaurant in Sapporo

We are a family group of 3, and was asked if "ordering 1 meal per head is ok?" So please note if anyone in your party is not eating soup curry but joining you at the restaurant.

A caucasian family were inconsiderately noisy and the mother took to dancing with her child in the middle of the restaurant. We really appreciated the lady staff politely telling the Japanese host to get her western friends to sit down.

Food is really good. Spicy level up to level 4 is yummy. Meat is tender. curry is savory, rice is fragrant, vegetables are fresh. place is stylish and ambience is quiet for some diners to eat while they work - except for the earlier disturbance by the inconsiderate family.

highly recommended for experiencing soup curry for the first time. will definitely return to try more items in their menu. menu is easy to understand for tourists and is done using electronic tablet. pricing can be a little higher in comparison but reasonable.

Hope you find the review...

We went to the restaurant around 4 PM after visiting Maruyama Zoo and waited in line for about 15 minutes. Once it was our turn, the staff took us to our table, and we ordered through a tablet.

It was the first time for me and my family to try Hokkaido soup curry. We chose the herbal soup with spice level 2 and crispy fried chicken. When the food arrived, it looked so good. The soup was flavorful and well-balanced, the veggies were tasty, and the fried chicken was super crispy.

Even my son loved it! We were all really impressed. If we go to Sapporo again, we’ll definitely come back to this place. Highly...

Late lunch after walking around the Park. Warm place for a cold day. Their number 1 recommended soup was smooth and tasty, not salty and not spicy at all for level 1 spiciness. And the veggies were fresh and succulent. Beef tendon a bit too fat for my taste, the crispy chicken was tender but must eat with the curry, a bit blank although spicy(not hotness). 38 Rich Soup is a must order. Smooth taste but not overwhelming, nicely balanced. Herbal medicine soup with spicy level 1 is good too, however I really preferred 38 Rich Soup. Overall a surprise meet in one November...
