The world’s largest mazesoba chain restaurant opens first Edmonton location
It’s not ramen, and it’s not udon, it’s mazesoba!
A popular mazesoba chain restaurant has made its way to Edmonton this September. Kokoro Mazesoba is the world’s largest mazesoba chain, having launched in January 2014 in Tokyo and quickly expanding globally.
For those who aren’t familiar with mazesoba, we’ll give you the rundown.
Mazesoba is a Japanese brothless ramen, consisting of chewy noodles and a variety of toppings, usually including some meat and raw egg yolk. The restaurant describes the dish as an “umami-rich saucy noodle.”
This delicious meal is packed with flavour for days, and it’s the perfect way to begin the fall season.

Kokoro Mazesoba recently announced the soft opening of its first Edmonton location on Sept. 7. The location sits across from the University of Alberta, just a few steps from the Stollery Hospital.
Its hours for the soft opening week are 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., with the same hours slated for the following week.
Since it is just its soft opening, the menu is limited, but Kokoro Mazesoba regularly serves items other than its signature mazesoba.
Some prime dishes from the restaurant besides the delicious mazesoba are its regular brothy ramen, rice bowls, and side dishes like its steaming gyoza or edamame.
If you’re a student at the University and looking for a new lunch spot, you’ve just found it. Or, if you happen to be in the area and looking for a scrumptious new dinner spot, Kokoro Mazesoba is at your service.
