👍👍 Absolutely amazed by this small local place! Great presentation and taste of ramen. Stir fry with rice noodle was great, beef could be a little bit better but no complains! Really loved the rich taste of shrimp ramen! Need to try more of their food! 5/5 People often mention ramen, good, pork, Ramen,

    I honestly think this place is 10/10 for quality. It’s always a hit or miss with other places, but this one keeps the great taste consistent. I’ve been here like 15 times over the last year, which is why I’ve kept it as a hidden gem near me. Over the year though it’s gained more customers and its well deserved honestly. This place has awesome friendly staff too. So they only make it a better experience. This first video is a previous time I came, the other pictures are the most current. Try this place, you will definitely love it 😊

    All have to say to start this review off is - COME HERE! It is worth to try it. If you are not familiar with the area there is street parking available. When you walk in, the employee working cash register greets you. You do order at the register and have the option to dine in or take it to go. During my time there the cashier was very nice and helpful for our first time. He explained the menu well and let me order twice since I decided after I ordered to order more food! The menu is the perfect size and so are the portions. Each dish we tried had so much flavor and the display was nice. Service overall was good and quick! Even sitting down they came to check on us twice! We absolutely enjoyed every single bite. Everything was so good that I do recommend it all! The Brussels sprouts was so good that honestly I didn’t want to share it! Highly recommend for vegan and gluten free options!

    The BEST BRUSSELS SPROUTS I’ve ever eaten in my life!!! Oh wow it’s perfectly crispy and savory!! The owner Peter was kind enough to give me the secret tips on making them, including the main ingredients of the secret sauce they make for it. The ramens are very good but all I can think about are the Brussels sprouts. It’s worth the trip to go just for the Brussels sprouts!!

    Japanese chicken was delicious, I had the beef ramen and my son had the pork ramen. We both loved the food. And the person who attended to us was very nice. Will go there again when next I visit Chicago.

    SERVICE: Fast and great! CLEANLINESS: Ok. Several dishes on some tables from customers who had left 20-30 minutes prior. FOOD: BBQ Pork Bao Buns - Ok, could be better. More dough than BBQ pork. Pork Ramen Noodle Soup - The noodles were cooked perfectly, the pork was tasty and tender, and the broth was very delicious! Shrimp Ramen Noodle Soup - Pretty good too but had more greens than noodles and just a few shrimp. PRICE: On the high end. Could be because of the area it is located in. Our bill came to almost $60 for 4 Bao buns, the two Ramen dishes, two drinks, and tip. OVERALL: Pretty good if you want to try out Ramen noodles for the first time or if you only plan to come here once in a while.

    I got the sweet and sour chicken stir fry and it was delicious. My grandma got the pork tonkotsu ramen; it looked so good so I had to get an order of it to go as well as the chicken miso. Everything is decently priced and it's a good amount of food. I've been dying to go back

    I got the Pork Ramen, I came in with my friend who hasn’t been before and the staff was amazing. Very helpful and friendly, and the food is even better! I have been coming here for about 2 years, and the place does not disappoint. I’ll be in next week! Best ramen that I have had.

    The food is exquisite and extraordinarily good, it has great prices and the flavor of the food is out of this world! The pork tonkotsu and the steamed bao buns are a must have delicacy in this place! I would definitely recommend this place!

    Absolutely phenomenal ramen!!! And a super nice owner / waitstaff. We are newly obsessed with this place. (We got pork tonkatsu ramen with chili oil on the side, plus fried chicken dumplings, and we tried the pineapple sake. All delicious - the tonkatsu ramen is a must!!)

    Awesome food, great drinks and fantastic music! Randomly stopped in for dinner and had the best brussel sprouts I’ve ever had! Ramen is delicious and the bubble tea is wonderful! The staff are so friendly and checked on us often! Will be back any chance I get!
