Delicious and authentic Korean food. Ingredients were very fresh and high quality. Friendly and prompt staff. Most of all, Maru has a great atmosphere with thoughtful artistic touches throughout the restaurant.

Overall a fun experience, we went during lunch time without a reservation. Would recommend it, but rather pricey and mediocre service.

I always get excited when there is a new Asian and especially Korean place to eat at. The menu was cute with fresh meat and fish of the day options available.

We ordered the following for 2 persons:
1) Dumplings (7.6/10): taste wise okay, but the dough sticked to the paper whereby everyone ripped apart. Also serving 3 for 2 people is logistically not superbe.
2) Korean Pancake (8/10): nice taste, refreshing but it missed a good flavour sauce, even some sweet soy sauce should have done the trick

Main:
Meat of the day: spicy pork (7/10) - it was not really spicy and once cooled down, the flavor was not really rich anymore.
Fried Chicken (8/10): was fun, I was disappointed that they put cashew nuts on it, which was not on the menu. Good taste but 25 euro is way too much.

A fun place to go, would go here back in a couple of months, but the amount of dishes was also not made for their tables and still quite pricey for the amount vs quality of food

This place is simply lovely, a high-quality & authentic Korean restaurant in Brussels! We had Korean fried chicken & Mandu (dumplings), together with a rice wine with yuzu - original and very tasty! The portions are generous as well - there was only 3 dumplings, but given how filling the chicken was that was absolutely fine. Prices are on the higher end, but reflect the quality & freshness of the cooking this was fine. It was 74€ for two people.

We came on a Sunday night and it was packed, but still managed to get a table. Service was perfect. We will definitely be back!

Friendly relaxed atmosphere, very tasty food and friendly and prompt service. We were there on a weekday. Some review claimed the deep fried chicken wasn't crispy, but we found it excellent and crisp. Also had bibimbap which i can recommend. Appetizers were tasty. Great time, highly recommend! Prices are not low but reasonable. We ate a lot.

Went for a Sunday Korean lunch experience with my wife.

One thing to is sure, quality of ingredients is not in question, all that is on the menu was fresh to the taste  and of high quality.

We spent 95 € for 2 people (1 suggestion of the day as appetizer to share, 2 x main dishes, 1 x beer. 1 x cola, a coffee and a 1 x dessert.

General experience is you very good.

Warm atmosphere and quality staff and service.

The owner have the impression to be very professional and open to share the vision behind her model with her Perl of wisdom being "Do not be afraid to do things different"
This is evident in the dishes served in this restaurant which do not try to sell you smoke but focus on the fire meaning the core dinning experience of engaging core senses, smell, taste and good presentation.

The food was tasty no need to be specific on a particular one.  I recommend to at least experience this dinning experience at least once and there likely will be a twice.

You pay for quality, here quality is not sacrificed not compromised and you are garanties that as a minimum.

See you again some other time.
