Great ramen, friendly service. Appetizers were tasty and the spicy ramen was spicy indeed. All staff were very friendly.

Tables and seats were tight, hard and very awkward. Noodles in the ramen were overcooked and lacked any bite. Soup was just warm, not hot. Also, there wasn’t a double front door like at most Chicago restaurants, so the dining room was blasted with frigid Chicago air every time someone opened the door which was practically every minute during dinner rush.
Friends RamenA répondu le 29 février 2024
Hello Bravos thank you for dining with us and we apologize for not meeting your expectations. We've sent a note to our kitchen team to ensure we're properly cooking the noodles and soup. We completely understand - no one wants to be blasted by cold air while they're eating their food - we've been actively working to ensure that our guests stay warm during the winter and plan to make changes in late 2024. If you have any additional feedback please email us at the email provided in our private reply. Thank you!

Good place to go in the neighborhood for ramen and other Japanese goodies. I like that they have a nice array of appetizers so you're not just limited to ramen. I also like that they have ramen in small and large sizes. The food itself (we shared two appetizers and had a small ramen each) was good and the matcha tiramisu was outstanding. Prices are quite fair (except for the criminally high prices for glasses of wine). Service was friendly and helpful.

I usually like this place- however I wanted to substitute my pork belly for ground pork and they told me they’d have to charge me $4 extra for that. I said why? i’m just subbing i’m not adding on meat. they said it’s “policy”. kind of ridiculous to charge someone for something they aren’t even eating!
Friends RamenA répondu le 26 décembre 2023
Hello and thank you for dining with us and we apologize for not meeting your expectations! We understand the frustration of being charged for asking for a substitute protein and being told that will cost extra. Substitutions create additional labor in our kitchen and require extra time for us, including a substitution request from pork belly to ground pork. We are bringing your review and input to a meeting later this week to review our policies and ensure we account for your feedback. If you have any further feedback, feel free to email us in the email provided in our private reply

Cozy spot perfect for a cold night. Best to reserva a table, although they might show availability that doesn’t account for the walk in traffic considering the limited seating. Will be back for ramen soon no doubt!

WINDOW IN BATHROOM. Don’t bother using the bathroom, there is a window in the bathroom where all the chefs and kitchen workers can see you!!!!! They have a curtain that is split in the middle and doesn’t close all the way, I almost took my pants down and noticed it’s right across from the toilet. I walked out immediately and the cook was smiling at me so creepily. THIS RESTAURANT IS SICKENING
Friends RamenA répondu le 5 décembre 2023
Hello and thank you for dining with us. We completely understand the confusion here, but this is not an accurate representation of our bathroom - the window you mention is a one way mirror (facing from inside the bathroom to out) and our restaurant regularly gets visited and passed for compliance by the city of Chicago. No one can see you inside the bathroom. If you have any additional feedback from your visit, feel free to email us. Thank you!
