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.

The ramen came with chashu, a soft-boiled egg, green onions, kikurage mushrooms, bean sprouts, and pickled ginger. Since I got the deluxe, they added corn, a thick slab of pork belly, and nori (seaweed). The tonkotsu broth was very creamy but not too sweet or salty. The chashu was delicious, and so was the egg. The thick pork belly was good, too, but I liked the thin chashu better. It's probably better to get the normal tonkatsu ramen unless you love corn.
The Sapporo was delicious.
The kae-dama noodles were hot and fresh. I recommend asking for kae-dama after you finish your original noodles, whereas my kae-dama was cold and stuck together by the time I put them into the broth.
As I ate, 4 people came by within 10 min, asking how everything was, grabbing empty dishes and trash.
Total price with mandate, tax, and 20% tip came out to $39.05.
Good food, great service, love the atmosphere.
