Literally the best ramen. I drop by every single time I fly out of O Hare. My wife always gets the white miso, and I get the Tsuksmen! You need to try Chicago Ramen to believe how good it actually

Some of the best in the area. Tsukemen is great but don't sleep on the red miso if you like a thicker, more luxe broth.

Had to pick up some people from the airport at 11:15pm and as I was getting closer to O’Hare I got the notification that they were delayed so I did a quick search to see if I could find somewhere quick to eat/pass the time while waiting for them.I’d had Chicago Ramen bookmarked for a while and noticed that it was one of the only places that was open until 11:30pm. I decided I would drive up past O’Hare just to check it out and if it seemed like they wouldn’t mind my ordering I would go ahead and give them a try.I got there and noticed the small place had two full tables and a steady stream of pick up orders going out so I went ahead inside. I like the counter service feel. It reminded me a lot of ramen shops I’d been to in Japan. The restaurant smelled great and was relatively clean and everyone’s food looked delicious.I didn’t want to chance getting a sudden call that my friends were ready so I ordered a spicy red miso ramen with an added egg to go. I wanted to draw the line there but while perusing the menu I noticed they had a curry bowl for only $6.95 and couldn’t help but add one to my order when I noticed a hot one come fresh out of the kitchen and set in front of a lucky patron.Although I wouldn’t characterize the staff I interacted with as friendly necessarily I would still say that they were professional and helpful which again reminded me of late night ramen forays in Tokyo. In any case, the full order was ready in less than 5 minutes. The hot noodles and toppings were in one container while the broth was in a separate. I tasted the broth before mixing the noodles in and immediately had high hopes that the hype of Chicago Ramen was real which was confirmed after my first slurp. I might even go so far as to say that Chicago Ramen has unseated High Five as my favorite Chicagoland ramen restaurant.Many things stood out in this bowl but I just really enjoyed how all the toppings mesh so well when they take on the flavor of the tasty broth that has already got a nice portion of stewed ingredients. The spicy red miso is the exact flavor profile that I have been looking for in a broth for so long. Also the big chunk of pork cha-shu and perfectly cooked egg(firm outside but still runny yolk) along with the corn all combined to make this a superb bowl of ramen. The curry bowl also had a nice authentic stewed flavor with added veggies over perfectly cooked rice.If you’re a ramen fan you should do yourself a favor and definitely make the trip to Des Plaines to give Chicago Ramen a try.Parking: Strip mall parking lot

A simple place that packs a punch with flavor. I especially LOVE the offering of fresh minced garlic to add to your soups. When craving warmth and comfort in the form of ramen, this is your place. I just wish it was closer to the city.
Chicago ramen was very deliciousMiso ramen with properly stir-fried vegetablesI was thrilled to be able to eat it in America.And if it turns out to be delicious, I'll be even more impressed.I regret making it spicy a little.It was quite painfulI went there in the afternoon when I seemed to have free time.It seems like locals are coming all the time.seemed busyThe soup has just the right amount of vegetable flavor.It is also said that the chashu is large.Moreover, the taste was well-seasoned and delicious.The noodles were mediocre.It was a ramen with a very high overall score.Ramen like this is near O'Hare AirportI'm so impressed that I can eat itI will go eat againI think I'll try Tsukemen next time.Thank you for the meal.

I ordered the Beef Curry Ramen -- the food was delicious and the portion size was great. It wasn't super busy when we arrived but the storefront was still almost full. Be aware of the limited seating if dining in during a busy time.
