Legit ramen , good vibes, and a killer lunch special . The tonkotsu is the way to go, but you're gonna want to order one of those meaty Pork Belly Buns with it too. WinstonWanders.com

Oishi! The pork belly in the tonkotsu ramen was amazing. Every time I took a bite I was reminded of parts of our trip to Japan. My husband had the king crab[awesome] and they even had kid ramen !

The express lunch gets you a half bowl of ramen along with a small salad , a dish of kimchi pickles and a plate of miso salmon , skirt steak or chicken over rice , all delivered within 5 to 10 minutes. Read more

Me& the boyfriend's first time here. It was also his first Ramen experience. I explained with the help of our waitress the different ingredients. Tonkotsu is great with the cilantro lime margarita !!

Time Out Chicago

With three broths to choose from, it’s a solid bet for vegetarians and meat lovers alike. No matter what you pick, we highly recommend adding a creamy molten egg to your order. Read more

The beef brisket ramen was garlicky and outstanding. VERY impressive brisket from Bub City is added to the dish. Split some baos before dinner . The pork bell was our favorite!

Denis Figueroa

Simply the best ramen house in the city . Dumplings are incredible. Sashimi too for starters. I recommend the tonkotsu with extra pork . Desserts super average.

Dan Sohayda

Top notch ramen . Definitely make a reservation if you think ahead. Long walk up wait time but if you can score a seat at the bar it’s just as good a place to slurp some noodles .

Gustavo Ortíz Monroy

I loves this ramen . I’m a big ramen fan boy and this was one of the best I’ve had so far. I had tonkotsu 👌

Sarit

The broth is on point and the noodles are perfect. Would warn away from sesame chili oil ..way too many seeds and the heat borders on too hot!

Dirk Van Akelyen

Sumo Bowl was great. For a guy, living in Singapore, noodles are a reference point. After a few days eating local specialities , noodles must come on the table. Yummy for tummy. :-)

Ayan Ashkenov

I recommend the kimchi chicken ramen . Pair that with Asahi and I cannot think of a better duo! Also try their ice cream cones !

Mareya Steinbacher

Great fried chicken bao buns & kimchi ramen is spicy but delicious 🤩

Joey Golaw

Shiitake mantou bun was the highlight—light, pillowy rice bun with crispy shiitakes . Roasted vegetable miso ramen was rich and flavorful, nice roasted eggplant and tomatoes .

Gregory K.

very decent. A little overpriced compared to NYC and even Tokyo ramen , but a good attempt and worth trying. Maybe It will get competitive very soon

David Benjamin

Ramens are large sized! Cocktails were also great!

Kelly Schumann

Chicken mantou buns and the raw tuna app are delicious. If you're up for noodles , get the pork tonkotsu ). Also, the aragoshi yuzu sake was a hit.

John French

The buns were super good, especially the pork belly one. Also had a lobster curry ramen that was absolutely delicious, but it was a special.

PureWow

A must-try would be the chicken mantou buns and the raw tuna app. Love the Aragoshi Yuzu sake ! Read more

Jon Waters

Amazing Tonkotsu . Make sure to add the garlic and get extra eggs . Hamachi sashimi was a delicious start as well .

Nash Pleasant

One of the best ramen shops in Chicago. The buns are very tasty as well

Adley

Great place to have a good ramen in Chicago! Worth to visit!

Kelsey Ingram

The place has an old school hip hop music vibe and the food is amazing! Love the lunch special .

Devan Egan

Dumplings , pork belly buns , ramen , and Limitless Macha Green Tea ! Won over the coworkers with Ramen-San!

Daniel Monge U

I’m not afraid to say that this might be one of the best (if not the best) ramen I’ve ever had

Dana Parker

Really great ramen , and an excellent craft beer selection . Three Floyd's is hard to come by outside of Indiana

Cristina Dordas

Try the aragoshi yozy sake cocktail ! Such a good surprise! Good appetizers and of course, ramen !

Ben S

Kimchi/fried chicken ramen is awesome. Spice level 4/10 coming from someone who likes heat.

Catherine A

The Japanese old fashioned was amazing. And the Brussels sprouts were perfectly crispy

Water Water

Surprised to find such good ramen in this neighborhood . Especially loved the spicy miso ramen

Wes R

They're doing take out , so if you don't want to have to wait for a table or fight for one of the 7 spots at the bar .

Andrew

Everything we had was really good. Don't think you can go wrong here.

Alexis Budejen

Great ramen . Can't go wrong with any choice. They really good hip hop too.

$15 express lunch special - 1/2 bowl ramen , rice dish with chicken salmon or steak and small salad . Delicious and fast!

The matcha cream puff is delicious. Be warned it is the size of a large grapefruit .

Delicious food, friendly service . I loved the chicken shio ramen 🫶🏻

Isnemm .

Ramen is good. I would just reduce the amount of fish sauce in the noodles . Buns are amazing!!

Cengiz Cesur

Try the tonkatsu ramen , tastes great. Nice atmosphere.

Go for the Sumo ramen bowl so you can have both the pork and the brisket .
