“We started with the vegetable tempura. The veggies were fresh, lightly battered and perfectly cooked. We ordered three different types of rolls, Boston, Sweet potato and shrimp tempura, all were fresh and had excellent flavor. We also had the steak ramen, spectacular! This is the best Japanese restaurant anywhere! Fantastic experience all around. Well done Tekka!!“

“What a great restaurant! Came here to celebrate Father’s Day last night and had to write a review. The appetizer menu was extensive and tempting so we got a lot :). All were good with notable mentions to the chicken wings, takoyaki, fried oysters, sesame balls, and chicken buns. The ramen was so good with rich broth and fresh ingredients, you can tell this was lovingly prepared. Service was friendly and inviting, I knew it was going to be good when they brought my beer in a frosted mug :). Thank you for helping us properly celebrate the best Father a guy could ask for, my Dad’s face says it all. Check this place out, you won’t be disappointed. We’ll be back!“

“I kinda consider myself a sushi connoisseur! This was my first time here and I just did take out lunch special sushi and it was AMAZING!! Most places one or 2 things is ok but yet all around never really hit the mark well this place is different! Quality ingredients and the chef properly using his amazing knife skills they really show off on the sashimi!! Somethings as simple as the spicy tuna roll and miso soup just done perfect!! Pot stickers and sauce to go with as well just spot on!! If you are in the are looking for your new go to sushi spot you just found it bc I know I did!!“

“Absolutely blown away by Ichiddo Ramen in Naperville! Their ramen is fantastic—rich broth, perfectly cooked noodles, and toppings that hit the spot every time. But the real game-changers are their appetizers—absolutely freaking awesome! I highly recommend the short rib and crab jalapeño appetizers; they're insanely delicious, packed with flavor, and totally addictive. The service is always fast, friendly, and attentive, making each visit an absolute pleasure. Ichiddo Ramen has quickly become my go-to spot—5 stars without hesitation!“

“We've gotten take-out three times now and the food is consistently hot and delicious, and prepared very quickly. Staff is friendly over the phone and at the front desk. We have closer options for Japanese food but Umai is SO worth the drive! Highly recommend!“

“Top tier food quality & customer service! I’ve been here a couple times and they never disappoint. Consistancy in both taste & service. Definitely recommend trying their food if you’re in the area!“

“Really enjoy this place. Golden shrimp is fabulous“

“I've been going to this place in the mall since I was a kid. Now I honestly make trips to the mail just to pickup food from here. The chicken teriyaki is always what my family gets. They love it with white rice and vegetables. I usually opt for the shrimp with white rice, and vegetables. The app they have is great, you can place an order ahead of time and show up to pick it up. You no longer have to wait in the long line, to order. The food is the same, the hot sauce which made the food next level seems to have been discontinued, through no fault of their own. They have small packets now. Food is still good, and service is always great and fast.“

“its so good and many to choose from. This would be a good place to go eat especially on date night.“

“My boyfriend and I love sushi and have tried places over the country. This was hands down the best sushi we have ever had. The owner was so kind and even gave us a special role to just try! The salmon was amazing. My favorite roll was The Grinch and his was That roll. We will be back again soon!“

“Love, love, love this place! After a long time, Teriyaki Madness has finally reopened! Long thought to be gone for good they opened just this past weekend and the food is just as good as ever.

Fresh, hot and hella delicious. Can't recommend the Spicy Chicken bowl with rice n veggies enough, and be sure to try the chicken potstickers.

The staff were nice and friendly and the restaurant clean and in good order. Be sure to stop by if you are in the area!“

“My husband and I recently discovered this gem!!! We don't live in Glen Ellyn and we started coming in July and have already been back 8 times!

Highly recommend.“

The martinis and crafted cocktails were as delicious as they were beautiful. Appetizers were delicious and the portion size was great- don't miss the brussel sprouts! Now the sushi... wow- creative and meticulously prepared rolls and sashimi with a menu that has something for everyone-- and the vegan options are incredible! Can't wait to come back.
