| - Looove this place. Today was my first time going there, and I went for lunch with a friend. I've never had miso soup before, but man, am I glad I was introduced to it here! For the native Madisonians, it tasted a little bit like hot spicy cheese bread--in a soup. THAT good.
I don't like sushi, so I can't speak to that part of the menu, but the pan-fried salmon in coconut curry with roasted squash was delicious. The salmon was flaky and smooth, but it held up perfectly in the sauce; the squash was sweet; and the rice and Asian slaw (which come with each entreƩ) were great, light companions to everything.
The atmosphere and appearance were very calm and clean, which was really nice--I think it lets you focus better on the food and the conversation.
The only thing I wasn't crazy about at Muramoto was the itty-bitty menu. I understand it's a lunch menu, but I like having a few more choices (there were only 4 or 5 entreƩs to pick from, plus the sushi menu). That said, my salmon was lovely, so it's a pretty minor complaint.
Overall, an awesome place for a light (but filling), relatively inexpensive lunch.
