FOOD/DRINKS I had their lemonade pouch and tonkotsu ramen. The lemonade was aesthetically pleasing and not too sweet-- something I would definitely return for. The tonkotsu ramen was hot and flavorful and definitely hit the spot on a cold evening. It's solid, but not something I'd go out of my way for, considering the numerous other ramen options in the vicinity. A couple weeks later, I also checked out their salmon and bulgogi rolls-- both solid choices for a relatively inexpensive outing, but also not something I'd go out of my way for. My friends always order their crab inaris (sadly allergic to them), so if checking out Mari Mari, I'd definitely give those a shot! SERVICE The staff are kind and friendly. AMBIANCE There is ample seating within the store, and the aesthetics of the store fit the theme very well. PARKING Paid street parking is available at a limited capacity.

Fantastic place inside on the Philadelphia Hmart food court.Their combo deals for 13 are great and they throw 12 rolls of your choice at you, with you choosing the three types of four that you get. The inari are fantastic too, and while the price is a tad high for a food court place, I feel like the quality is good enough to warrant it. Definitely more American style rolls for sure (mayo and katsu and so on) but delicious all the same!The rolls that cost extra are pretty huge, I'd definitely order those again, despite the added cost. You can see how big they are compared to the normal smaller rolls on the side in my photo!I come here on the frequent, and I can never complain about the food!

I recommend doing the Mari Combo, 18 pieces of sushi for 10 dollars I think that is a deal. I got the chicken katsu, korean bbq, and crab with Mayo. I also wanted to try more of the inari, but it could range anywhere for 4-5 dollars per one, but definitely worth it.

The decor and space here was really cute. You simply order at the counter and take your seat. I loved that they had some of the food on display so you already know what it looks like. Came here to try the inari and they were so good! The creamy scallop was my sister and I's favorite from the six different ones we ordered. It was creamy, sweet and the perfect texture combo. Close second had to be the salmon tataki. The eel/unagi was a little sweeter than we were expecting, but was delicious nonetheless. Tuna in the tuna mayo was cooked (reminds me of canned tuna). Spicy crab is exactly as you'd expect. The most disappointing one of the six we tried was the garlic shrimp. They were overcooked and hard to chew. Their house made drink pouches were refreshing! The prices here were pretty reasonable. Makes the perfect quick snack to-go! A pretty satisfying experience overall. We need to come back and try the ramen next time!

The cashier was all over the place. I ask if we can switch out the mushroom and bean sprout for tofu and corn because it's the same price and she said yes. Then I ask if a bowl of noodle has half an egg or 1 egg and she goes it's 2 pieces one whole. So I said perfect. When she rang everything up she goes it's $16 instead of $12.95 because the corn and tofu was extra charge right after she told me I can switch it out for no charge. So then I said forget about it and just make it regular. When the noodle was ready I picked it up and only saw one half of the egg... in which then she told me oh let me ask for u. And said it's actually half only and if I want I can order another half as a side but they can't swipe my card for only $1.... Besides my kids liking the food, the service sucks

Highly Recommend!Stopped in to get some take out, first this place is adorable on the inside. If I had time I would have 100% dined in, the staff are super friendly. Second let’s talk about the food, because WOW. I got the Creamy Bacon Udon, and it was chefs kiss. Honestly wish I would have ordered two. The Inari was also amazing, first time I’ve ever had it. I got the Mushroom, Tuna and Eel. Lastly I got the Yuzu-Ade it came in this cute togo packaging and was super delicious.Please everyone check this place out, I know I’ll be back often.

Ordered Mari Mari from DoorDash, honestly food is not tasty, I got tonkotsu ramen they put 30 grams of pork and it tastes like old meat, I asked for extra corn and payed for it there was one spoon of corn( I was so excited to try it and now very disappointed ☹️

i've been here a handful of times and i will say the food is always good and the staff are friendly but there are a few small caveats that stop me from calling it one of my top favorites. first of all their sushi is not authentic; however, i see that this is part of their business model so it's not necessarily a problem. just be aware that it isn't typical sushi before you go. they have the usual tempura rolls and such but they don't offer many traditional/raw options because (according to their website) they make "american style" sushi. secondly, when they say "mini maki" they really mean MINI. the price point of about $13 for a combo seems appealing until you see the size of the rolls. a couple dollars more could get you twice as much food at a normal sushi restaurant. plus there is a surcharge of $2-3 to add a larger tempura roll to your combo. if you have a big appetite for sushi you might not leave satisfied. however, both of these details are advertised parts of their business model so i can't really be mad about it. i can't even dock a full star despite my complaints because it really is tasty food, i still stop in whenever i'm at hmart and i do enjoy it every time. i wish i could rate them a 4.7/5. if you're not too hungry and not a sushi purist you'll definitely like it here.
What a delightful Korean-Japanese fusion cafe! They offer ramen, delicious fusion dishes, and inari which is like giant sushi but with tofu skin instead of seaweed wraps. The whole place, while small, is thoughtfully and tastefully decorated with a unique personality. Love the creative inari, and the ramen was very good as well. See my photos. One of the highlights is their fruit punches that come in funny-looking plastic bags (that reminded me of IV bags). There were yuzu and pineapple punches. Yuzu was the best!

The noodles, the stew, the ingredients, it was alll so delicious especially given we took it home before digging in. Me and my hubby had the kimchi stew ramen with pork and it warmed us up in this cold! I recommend it as they have a good menu to choose from if pork doesnt suit your fancy too. Very pleasant staff and prices matched the quality of the food!
