Good service. Good food.

Cheap lunch! pick 2 and and rice or noodles for only 7 bucks. Also a small grocery section with good prices. Picked up some crispy garlic sauce with my lunch. It can get crowded at lunch time, but its still pretty quick in and out. There is no seating.

I often come here to shop when I want to eat Japanese food or when I need ingredients. The inside of the store is small, but the number of items is plentiful.The daily lunch boxes and sushi here are diverse and delicious. Hot deli also available You can also buy croquettes and fried shrimp separately. I think its convenient for you to buy and eat lunch or dinner in the hot summer. I think you can buy it cheaper than making it yourself.After 5:30pm 50% off all bento and deli items. However, it may be sold out by that time. Dont forget to get a fork and chopsticks when you buy a bento or deli. Because its just a take out only. No tables and chairs inside the store. There are many sale selections and it is a bargain.For example; Vermont Curry sauce mix for $ 2.99, half the price.I always buy a lot of things when I come here.If you have a recycling bag, I recommend that you bring it with you.I love MARUTA-SHOTEN and when I come here I feel like Im in Japan.

My mom is in a nursing home not far from here. Her favorite thing to do before she got too ill was to come and get all her snacks and a few lunches when we visited every week. We now pick up to go but we love it just the same.

I found this great Japanese Supermarket using they Yelp Search tool. I arrived around 4 p.m. and checked out the relatively small but well-stocked grocery. I found a couple of nice bentos and proceeded to the checkout.The super nice Clerk told me that if I could wait 3 minutes that the bentos would be 50% off. Now it explains why the Bento area was busy. I went back and said limit 3 per person so of course I bought a third one. Sure enough three bentos for about ten bucks, such a bargain!Be sure to check out the sales on the flyer close to be entrance. The place is closed on Sundays but Im looking forward to returning around 4 p.m. again to grab the half off bentos at 4:30! Strongly recommended. By the way, theres also a hot food area but it seems to close around 2 pm.

Good place to get some Asian deli and sushi.

I was just there to buy food for lunch and they declined my debit card twice!! It was very embarrassing and I was forced to use my credit card. I called my bank and they told me that the merchant flagged me as fraudulent?! How in the hell can someone flag you and assume this?!? I can not believe this happened to me! How rude, and racially profiling. I will not go back there and will tell everyone my experience!

A small place but with awesome deli section. Many grocery products from Japan. Right next to freeway entrance.

This market has great food at a low price. A real gem. I love this place

The best for prepared Japanese and some Chinese food. Excellent sushi and sashimi.

Great little Japanese market and reasonable prices. The deli has a large variety of bento boxes, donburi and a nice selection of sushi. Also for such a little store I find their selection of Japanese goods much better. Definitely not a place for produce or fresh meat though.

Maruta, a program of experimentation on human beings at the Imperial Japanese Armys Unit 731They routinely conducted tests on human beings (who were referred to internally as logs). Additionally, the biological weapons were tested in the field on cities and towns in China. Estimates of those killed by Unit 731 and its related programs range up to half a million people.Seriously.. who name the grocery store one of the worst war crime in history of mankind? Do you ever see German store called Holocaust?

Been going here all my life. Sushi is good and affordable. They have an imported ramen that I only get from them. I will always come back

To go food, Japanese grocery and household essentials. Absolute game changer red bean buns, but you have to ask the cashier for the good stuff and wink three times to get them.

Great Japanese grocery store with sushi and Chinese takeout.

My fave store for my staples like furikake with good plate lunch too!

Good fresh sushi that is very inexpensive for the amount you get. Nice selection of Japanese groceries. Extremely nice and friendly staff. Will definitely be returning. Hopefully earlier in the day to try the hot bar as well.

This is a pretty amazing local Japanese shop. All the selections of cuisines are pretty awesome such as oyakodon, karaage-don, poke-don, and katsu-don. The prices are very reasonable and cheap. The best you’ll find.

I love Marita Market. Its do goodBento boxes Sushi and moreVery homestyle Japanese food. Also goes on 50% off at 430

Popular due to 50% off sushi before closing every day. It is a Japanese grocery store with deli and sushi 🍣 fresh made.

They have delicious sushi and great donburi as well. Also its very affordable.

Nice little japanese style grocery store. Easier to shop than Uwajimaya, and fighting Chinatown traffic.

Cool deli with fresh sushi. Friendly staff.

Awesome little spot. A Japanese friend of mine swears this is the closest thing to a grocery store in Japan. Awesome selection of stuff.

Dont tell any body one of Best lunches in SeattleTip nice !

A unique Asian market with a deli and freshly made sushi.

Delicious food at very reasonable prices. A must go-to place when in Seattle.

Listen, I try and not throw 5 stars out at every Tom Debbie Harry place I visit, but I dont just visit Maruta Market, I relish it. I think I might even love it.This unassuming gem in Georgetown has a thorough selection of Japanese and Asian dry and fresh foods - noodle, ramen, sauces, select fish, kimchi - but the magic I suggest you let put a spell on you is the hot food counter and refrigerated grab and go area. From about 11-2 ( double check hours) you can choose from a variety of hot fresh boxed in front of you savoriness, that includes selections like: tender pork, salmon, Mongolia beef, steamed, vegetables, steamed or fried rice, or noodles, and other lunch selection. In another hot dry case you can find various priced items like pot stickers, egg rolls, beautiful wings, and the amazing karaage, a Japanese styled fried chicken: Ive had other preparations elsewhere but this is by far my favorite version. Plus the prices are very reasonable. Oh, and in the cold food area you can find egg foo young, vegetable tempura, sushi, tender calamari, and other delights.So, should you stop by Maruta Market next time youre in Georgetown? Only if you want to treat yourself to the magic of good eats :)

Ive only been there to pick up some takeout for lunch and I cant say that Ive ever had anything that I didnt like. Really good food and service at a fair price will always receive a high rating. My one complaint would be that, in my opinion, the location is too small for the amount of traffic.Tempura shrimp, garlic fried wings, teriyaki salmon, lemon chicken mm mm mm mm mm! Love this place!

Such convenience at a good pric3.quick lunch spot

Amazing little place which I love with all my heart, I remember when my father used to take me when I was a lot younger and I still go, because it reminds of all the food I love, (including no paper messed up fortune cookies for cheap) and the attempt to try something new each day.

One of the coolest spots in Seattle - great grab and go sushi for unbeatable prices.

Found a couple if good deals. Apparently their hot food goes on sale at 4 or so and folks come from all over to buy it. None of it interested me. I will go back and order some hot food.

Great authentic store and deli.

A great place nice people.go and see.

Definitely good quality lunch food at a decent price. I work at Boeing and come here at least twice a week for their sushi and bento boxes. For a relatively small Japanese deli and grocery store they seem to have a pretty large and diverse customer base. A hidden gem that is worth a trip.

Really good sushi !

A very enjoyable place to grab lunch and pick up some fun candy you wont find anywhere else!

Great Asian food market. Has an excellent variety of Japanese foods including a small prepared deli and freshly packaged sushi varieties.1

My go to place for a quick lunch, picnic meal, afternoon pick me up, or snack spot. One of my favorite places in Seattle.

I love their premade to-go sushi at lunchtime, paired with a bag of fortune less cookies to share with my office.

Best prices on sushi & sashimi...also great hot deli case...been shopping here for 20 years...

For quick hot lunch it is unbeatable. Great prices and selection for bento as well.

It is a small Japanese store. They have sushi, rice bowl and Japanese grocery. Week day, their sushi is 50% off after 5pm. It is very good price.

Love this place. Easy lunch pickup spot with hot food and yummy sushi options.

Nice store. For the size they have plenty of variety.

You wont find better Japanese take-out anywhere else east of Hawaii. Incredibly affordable deals on their regular-priced hot food items and sushi/sashimi plates and bentos, Maruta even has a happy-hour at 5pm-closing where all rolls, hot deli, and bento combos disappear off the shelves at 50% off! It always feels like they just made the food fresh from market ingredients, and their uniquely delicious flavors pack a punch. The Japanese staff are the kindest ever and their smiles might leave as strong an impression as the quality of their food and service do. I wish they had tables to sit and enjoy and its elusive as to why they dont already. Most likely because their private parking lot, tho ample for drivers coming and going, wouldnt fit the entire city who would come and want to stop to enjoy this gem of a Japanese Shokuryōhin-ten.

Wonderful market for grabbing lunch or just a snack. Foods range from sashimi to japchae to hot Chinese style deli (Mandarin chicken, mabo tofu, salmon are my favorite) and many others. Large canned drink/coffee selection as well as beer, sake, candy, chips, fresh veggies, and household items. A true one stop shop.

One of Georgetowns little secret nooks. Great sushi, great selection of Asian food items. The staff works hard and are wonderful people.

Hidden gems in the city!! love their bento and sushi choices. Fresh and fast.Always make a time to drop by everytime we pass by the area. Quick lunch and lots of options.

Delicious lunch boxes sold for reasonable prices.

High quality sashimi

Food is very great Gucci Masusen domo arigato

Grocery store with fresh sushi packaged to go for a decent price. The food is better than or just as good as any sit down restaurants in the neighborhood. They have a wide selection of imported Asian foods in the grocery section. I dont forget to stop by when Im in the neighborhood.

One of Seattles best kept secrets!

Such great selection of sushi.

They have a lot of hot food & sushi plus poke choices.

We have been shopping there every Saturday for fresh sushi and bento box. There are other Japanese deli specialties like the pickled seaweed that we love. The sushi is as good as you will find made fresh daily. Theres plenty of parking the prices are roughly half of what you would pay at a premium grocery like metropolitan or whole foods. I wish they would open in West Seattle! Its out of the way but worth the trip.

Nice little grocery store, reasonable prices and great hot food.

Teriyaki salmon from deli was amazing: generous portions, delicious, good price. Also enjoyed nigiri and California rolls. Was first visit, but definitely returning.

Very lovely little market. Nice sized sushi for a good price, good selection of Sake, lots of snacks, all well priced. And I also received 2 $1 off my next purchase coupons which is nice. And I plan on returning to use them :)

Has a nice selection of Japanese and some pan-Asian staples. Mostly well known, go-to brands. We went there today for lunch and really enjoyed the freshly made katchu don (panko fried pork cutlet) and their sashimi and sushi were generous and fresh.

Yummy Hot And Cold Food

Great selection, great food, and great prices

Super fresh sushi and sashimi, hot food is delicious, and many items you cant find anywhere else. Authentic Korean BBQ sauce and soy sauces etc. One of my favorite stores in Seattle.

The best Japanese grocery in Seattle. Their deli and to go bento and sushi are amazing, and they have an amazing selection of groceries. If you need something for your pantry, they will assuredly have the best version if whatever you seek. Its a medium sized grocery that delivers big.

One of my favorite little food counters in Seattle!

Service is pretty much stand alone, meaning youre in charge of your own service. Its basically, you select, pay then leave. Youll probably get a thank you here and there, but dont expect the workers to go above their duty to serve you. The sushi is often good: still fresh after a couple days, even when theyre purchased at the 50% off deal. Everyday at 5 PM, all sushis are 50% off & a few items are 20% off (like seaweed). Sometimes its not busy, but if you want more selections, get there by 4:50. Parking is minimal.* 50% all sushi can now be purchased by 4:30 PM instead of 5:00.

Sushi was pretty bunk. its cheap, but dont expect anything good at all. rubbery sashimi, imitation crab. cute store though and has a lot more than just sushi.

Its good and cheap Japanese and Chinese food

Close by the crib and great stuff there

I lived in Japan and I has been missing a lot of Japanese food that is hard to find in restaurants and they have it here! Their bento boxes are so authentic, delicious and so affordable! This is one of my favorite delis.

Excellent mom/pop Japanese grocery store with fresh bento boxs daily. In Georgetown.

Great spot for lunch. Food is good and the prices are great. Great little store

Love this store for their large selection of sushi and bento. Decent prices and we always go for the 50% off on sushi at 4:30.

The go- to place for high quality Japanese products. Good place for a quick bite at their deli at the back of the store. I recommended the fresh made sushi!

I drive here from Auburn because you can get what you want without getting gouged! Among other items, I stocked up on mochi for New Years on my last visit. I highly recommend it. Easy to get to right off I-5.

Amazing store very cheap

We enjoy the rice bowls and sushi. We also buy all our noodles here.

I love having a small Japanese Market nearby with meal optoons. The Bento/take out, pre-made traditional Japanese meals, are Very Good and are a Great Deal. The Gyoza are good too, and a great price. The Chinese take out is also good and another great deal, try the Mandarin Chicken!. There is fresh fish, and everything you would expect from a Market like this.

Great little store, my go-to place to get White Rabbit candy and grab-and-go lunchtime sushi.

Love popping in here for an occasional snack or drink before hopping on i5 to go home from work. Also decent but small selection of Japanese ingredients to choose from (at a fair price). Sorry Uwajimaya, their deli food is also better. 🙂

Amazing place. Best priced bentos in all of Seattle.

My favorite spot for best prices for Japanese related ingredients, with a small deli that makes really good spam musubi, sushi, sashimi.

Great lunch value! Matsutake mushrooms in season.

It is a mini cultural experience in and of itself to come to Maruta at 5pm and watch all of the area locals rush the place to grab discounted deli items before they disappear. The deli sushi and bento boxes are already priced reasonably, so when theyre half off from 5pm-6pm its a steal. Maruta also stocks lots of other specialty Japanese foods and items which can be hard to find anywhere else.

A great quick stop for your daily needs with a wonderful deli!

I cannot recommend this place highly enough. The fare is fantastic, prices are unbeatable, workers are friendly. The only downside is the hours. Stay open later! Georgetown doesnt have a grocery store!

Good selection of japanese stuff and delicious sushi! Super friendly staff!

Half price California rolls between 5 and 6 p.m. damn filling for under 3 bucks!

Great deli! Lots of fantastic Japanese grocery items as well. Love the store and its on the way home!

About three and a half stars. Its gonna be hard for me to rate the deli since they close it so early. They put the leftovers out in the cold area and I probably wouldnt get anything anyway. The bento boxes look good. I usually only get the sushi and some packaged noodles. Staff is cool.

Great to see a market in Georgetown! Not a lot in terms of fresh produce but they do have a decent selection of Japanese seasonings, sushi tools and been boxes, noodles, etc. It would be nice if they carried produce. Easy access with a fair amount of parking.

Small Japanese market. Has nice selection of prepared sushi and sashimi for lunch.

The sushi rolls here that are pre-prepared are better than some fresh made sushi I have had in sit down restaurants in Seattle. I had the smoked salmon roll and it was delicious. The veggie croquettes are amazing. Next time Im in here Im gonna try the sashimi and see how that is.

Cheaper than Uwajimaya with a focus on Japanese food stuffs. Tasty makizushi, barazushi and inarizushi. Best bentos to grab and go. Chinese and Japanese friwd chicken to go. Its like eating at your aunts house!!

First time here, I got salmon sashimi and a seaweed salad with a side of ginger. It was about $7, and the quality was great. Cant wait to come back and try more!

Really cool spot! The pot stickers are super good here! For 5$ and change you can get a good amount of super delious food! They have all kinds of good stuff in there. Its also like a small covinion store. I found this place because I was super hungry and I am always up to trying new things.

One of the best stores in Georgetown.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! Close to my house, HAS Apple Pay, YUMMY FOOD AND DRINKS!! Highly recommend this wonderful place
