Maru Ichi, Mountain View

I was in the South Bay and wanted lunch. It was after 11:30 am so I was limited in terms of what was available without a wait. We decided to go to Maru Ichi in Mountain View. It's located at 368 Castro Street.

 

I always get the Kuro Ramen for $7.98. The black comes from browned garlic and the broth is made with chicken and pork. This was different than what I remembered in the past. The soup was not as flavorful and needed some salt.

 

The homemade ramen is still good though--just the right amount of bite.

 

Miso Ramen--My sister thought it was okay. Nothing tops Orenchi's.
