Marufuku is a popular ramen restaurant in Japantown, with a very chic, designer Japanese setting, which has even opened other outlets in North Cal (in Oakland and Cupertino in particular). Two star ramen on the menu: the authentic Tonkotsu Hakata ramen, featuring a milky, umami-rich pork broth simmered for hours, with fine artisanal noodles. And Paitan ramen with white chicken chashu, seasoned boiled egg, green onions, kikurage mushrooms and bean sprouts. Excellent izakaya appetizers and quality sake. Delicious and affordable.

Updated review 4/7/2024: The chef or recipe have changed. This is no longer "Wow" good. Their Hakata tonkotsu DX ramen $20.50 used to be really good, especially their broth. This time, it was weak. It no longer has a strong pork taste. It did retain that cloudy colored broth that I like. The tiny chashu pieces and jelly egg remains good. I wanted to order a side of the chicken leg but they ran out. I was just in the Hakata area, Fukuoka city in October and most ramen shops there have a better broth. The wait was around 30 minutes on Sunday at 5pm. Service remains excellent. All the people that work here are courteous and fast.

Original review: Indoor dining on 3/17/2021. Wow! Finally, a Japanese owned ramen restaurant in Japantown. Marufuku Ramen has six tables for Covid indoor dining. The wait time for me was about 35 mins at 5:45pm on a Wednesday afternoon. I had the chashu rice bowl $5 and the tonkotsu DX ramen $18.50. As someone who ate hundreds of bowls of ramen in Japan, this place is not bad. Their broth and noodles tastes a lot like Ichiran ramen's, which is not a bad thing. It is like Marufuku copied Ichiran's recipes. The broth, thin soft noodles, soft boiled egg, the tiny two pieces of chashu were all authentic. The chef and the Thai waitstaff were extremely fast. I will definitely come back (if they have more tables and shorter wait times.) Great job everyone at Marukuku.

This is just about the best bowl of tonkotsu ramen I have tasted. Perfectly rich and umami broth, soft and delicious roast pork, great noodles. Hard to beat.

One of the my favorite ramen spots in San Francisco. Located in the Japan Town Mall. I got the veggie ramen and it was absolutely delicious. I asked mine to be ultra spicy. The flavor of the broth was incredible even after adding more spice. The service was incredibly fast and I was able to go in n out in about 30 minutes.
