  • San Maru is a Korean restaurant located at The Crossing in southwest Champaign. After reading all the positive reviews on Yelp, I decided to try it. It's a very clean and tidy restaurant, but from the start I sensed that this restaurant can't make it even though the food is quite good. My companion and I went there at about 1 PM on a Saturday afternoon. We decided to sit at a table outside since it was a nice day. I asked the person at the counter if service was available outside, and she said yes, and asked if we wanted menus. That was the first odd sign. I took the menus, and she said that we would have to order at the counter and pay up front. That was the second odd sign. We took the menus outside and looked them over. We both decided to have the dumplings for a start, and then two lunch bowls, one fried chicken pieces and one shrimp. I went inside and placed my order. We wanted dumplings, but they told me they were out of them. I ordered the chicken wings instead. Then I was asked to pay. I paid with a credit card, and couldn't decide how much of a tip to leave. I asked if a server would bring the food to our table, and she said yes, so I put a tip on the card, but not as much as I usually would. I went back outside and sat back down at the small table which had a slight wobble to it. We sipped the glasses of water (no ice) that they had brought, and waited for our food. The lunch bowls were brought out promptly. They consisted of a large amount of rice topped with a few vegetables, and several pieces of chicken and shrimp, and drizzled with teriyaki sauce and mayo. The dish was under seasoned, very bland and short on vegetables. We had eaten half of the bowls before the wings were served. They were seasoned better, with a nice crackly skin, a bit of spiciness and some heat. We ate those, and left half of our bowls unfinished. Since we only tasted two dishes, I can't speak to the overall quality and taste of the other menu items. I will say that this restaurant is in the wrong part of town to be run like a campus semi-fast food place. If non-college students go to a $$ restaurant, they expect to be waited upon, served, and then pay the bill. I would love to see this restaurant survive, but they will need to re-do their marketing strategy to do so. If they do this, I'll give it another shot.
