A hand-crafted noodle restaurant just teased an Edmonton location

Jun 19 2026, 7:17 pm

It’s time for this noodle restaurant to expand to Edmonton; Marugame Udon is officially opening up a location within the city.

Born in Japan in 2000, Marugame Udon prides itself on holding true to the authentic tradition of Sanuki udon, which, according to its website, started centuries ago in the Kagawa Prefecture in the southern part of Japan.

Providing handcrafted udon bowls and tempura from a lively open kitchen is its style, giving guests the option to watch as their food is prepared. In the kitchen, the way they make their udon noodles is a long, time-consuming craft. Made daily from simple three ingredients (flour, water and salt) in its open kitchen, this spot is dedicated to serving up the most authentic Sanuki udon possible.

There are three locations currently in Canada: one in Calgary, one in Vancouver, and one in Toronto. Good news, however, is that Edmonton can expect its own location coming soon.

If you’re familiar with West Edmonton Mall, you might be familiar with this corridor. Although it isn’t confirmed, we highly suspect this new location will be taking over the mall.

It’s only further confirmed by the team’s comment on Instagram

What’s more representative of our great city than the “king” himself? This Oilers GIF is the exact type of hint we were looking for, and by the comments, it’s clear others caught on as well.

Edmontonians can start looking forward to this authentic restaurant experience coming soon. You’re going to want to keep an eye out on socials for this one, as the exact opening date hasn’t been announced just yet.

We’ll be back when this great spot’s doors open, so just hang on tight for the ride. Stay tuned for more information on Marugame’s Edmonton opening.
