Been coming here for some years. Always been a great experience. Always get the same. Spicy Miso Ramen Large. This thing is... huge so of you order don't plan on eating dinner. Read more

Exactly same as it was in the lombard location. I went to this place coz they have this vegan option which usually other Ramen... places don?t. We ordered 1 Vegan Miso Ramen (Spicy) - i just love this dish. Perfect taste. Very good portion ( actually a lotfor 1 person) 2 Spicy Edamame: they were good too as appetizers 3 Fried Peppers: I didn?t really like those. Overall, theyhave great food. Surprisingly, they either have vegetarian broth or Pork Broth and not chicken broth. Read more

It was our 1st time here. And we were shocked how delicious food. I order ABURI MISO RAMEN my 1st expression of this is very... delicious but there's a strong smell like a red wine. I am not sure if theres a wine included on the recipe but you candiffently smell it. And for appetizers my husband order fried FRIED GYOZAand BAN NAI BUNS. This is my favorite my pork is veryjuicy and the buns had perfect combination. All the food i mention is in picture i download. Read more

Menu with pictures is simple and easy to understand. Food portion and quality is adequate. Service is quick and friendly. This... is one of my favorite ramen place in Schaumburg. Highly recommended Read more

We come here all the time for our lunch date. Clean and cozy spot! Staffs are always friendly. Love their house made noodles and... the fried chicken appetizer is my all time favorite. Read more

Food was pretty good but pricey. $75 including tip for 2 bowls of ramen, 2 apps, a bao bun & 3 sodas. The noodles were good but... the broth to me didn?t have much flavor. I liked the flavor of the egg but was sad it was not very jammy. The fried chicken &pan fried gyoza were good too. Service was fast & friendly. We live 35 minutes away so I wouldn?t go out of my way to come backhere but would stop by again if I?m in the area. Read more

Out of the many ramen shops I have been to this is my personal favorite. This is one of the only places in the U.S to have... authentic Kitakata-style ramen and I am very fortunate to live relatively near this ramen shop. The broth has a very smooth anddeep flavor, noodles having a curly and chewing texture that complements the broth nicely, and the chashu is so tender andumami. They also have numerous toppings to choose from and I personally recommend getting the Umami chili if you want a nicekick to your bowl. They also have a vegan ramen as well, which is very flavorful and is actually comparable to the regular ramenunlike many other ramen restaurants which do not try as much on their non-meat ramen. The service is always friendly and youalways get a nice Japanese greeting when entering and leaving the restaurant. Could not recommend this place more. Read more

The wait was about an hour long on a Friday night, luckily there's plenty of shopping nearby. The food was very flavorful. I got... the spicy Miso Ramen and it was really good! Pricing was fair, portions large and service was quick. I'll definitely be back. Read more
