QU JAPAN

QU JAPAN is a ramen restaurant at 7406 Baltimore Ave on the Route 1 corridor in College Park, close enough to the University of Maryland that reviewers describe walking over from campus. It holds a 4.5-star Google rating across 435 reviews.

Reviewers most often talk about the broth, which several describe as rich and flavorful, along with well-seasoned meat and a properly cooked egg. Beyond ramen, regulars mention switching to hibachi, and one reviewer singles out the sushi tacos. Others note a shelf of Asian snacks and drinks, side dishes with discounts when added to an order, and a 5% discount for paying cash when ordering with staff. The staff come up again and again as kind and welcoming, and some students say it is a comfortable place to work on a laptop. One summary notes generous noodles but fairly light toppings.

QU JAPAN opens at 11 AM daily and stays open a little later on Fridays and Saturdays. Google lists a wheelchair-accessible entrance, parking lot, restroom and seating.
