About this spot
MARU serves up bold Korean flavors that stand out against Osaka's traditional dining scene, focusing on hearty stews and grilled meats rather than delicate banchan. The kitchen specializes in rich beef bone broths and spicy stir-fries that hit the spot after a long day of exploring Tsuruhashi.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the beef stew to go if you want to eat it with your own rice bowl for a more casual experience.
- Ask for extra ssamjang at the table to make the grilled meats more flavorful before wrapping them in lettuce.
- Save room for the side dishes, as they are often substantial enough to serve as a full meal on their own.
