Every time I come here the food is delicious/filling the prices are reasonable and the Ice tea is always Flavorful ,check it out.
Our server was nice and attentive, Ramen noodles, bento box, pork bao bun and thai ice tea was all bad quality. Pretty much every meal we
ordered was bad quality, super spicy and flavorless. What a waste of money. I don't recommend the food at all, chicken was so uncooked and flavorless. Don't waste your money. Also we had tummy ache after getting home.
Checked out Aodake in La Grange for a birthday dinner and had a great experience. The atmosphere is super chill, the servers were so attentive and kind, and the food was fantastic. We ordered the dumplings and pork buns for appetizers which were very delicious. I had the spicy veggie ramen and it had the right amount of spice! We had sides of chicken and shrimp fried rice which were some of the best we ever had. My daughter ordered a watermelon milk boba tea that was very refreshing. Definitely recommend!
Love the ramen here. Super cute restaurant in the heart of downtown Lagrange Illinois.
Great apps, mediocre ramen. The toppings were nice and fresh but the broth was lacking. Honestly, it tasted off.
There was only 2 servers working that day and they were swamped with online orders.
I hope the buisness finds success in the future, but I don't think I'll be returning any time soon.

Great place! Great customer service and a such a family friendly restaurant. Love their attention and hospitality!
We had ramen here one night with our young kids and it was fantastic! The ramen noodles and broth were delicious, decor and atmosphere on point, and the service was fantastic. They were so accommodating with our young toddlers. We will be back again!
Perfect little place for Ramen. Friendly staff and and quick service
Very good Ramen in the suburbs. Fresh ingredients and a few different types of ramen to choose from. Added bonus: they have kids ramen as well!

The food is overpriced for the portions. They should be embarrassed to give 6 small gyoza for $9. The $16 ramen bowl was half full, and honestly, the least authentic miso I've ever had with dry chicken bits floating around. Not to mention, we ordered mushrooms for another $2 and barely got ANY, which was infuriating, to say the least. With an already small portion of food for so much, I was expecting an actual Ramen expirence with full bowls and delivery on the actual service, which left a lot to be desired. They brought out my food about 7 minutes before my friend ever got served, which is just weird because why wouldn't you wait for their food to be done so I can actually eat. as well as waiting multiple minutes to serve my friend their tea while I already had my drink. It's a small place. There's no way it takes that long to bring a drink. The bowls give the illusion of being a lot, but they have very wide tops and thin bottoms, and my friend was served udon in what looked like an eccentric cat bowl. Not to mention, the small fried rice that tasted burnt to the pan was $7.50, which is ridiculous for such a small portion. I wouldn't recommend eating here for a plethora of reasons. Save yourself $80. (Ps the mango milk tea doesn't taste like mango just sad milk with warm popping Boba).
My friend also mentioned the Thai tea might be a powder which might not be a deal breaker for some but for almost $7 I expected actual effort in what they're serving.
Also also I barely ate of thier food and my to go container wasn't even half way full because of these pitiful portions. I'm so disheartened that this place ended up being my friends first Ramen expirence. Rip to my tastebuds, wallet, and time. On my way to McDonald's to actually get a meal.
Fantastic veggie options!
Aodake has a nice assortment of vegan appetizers. We tried the gyoza and the brussels sprouts. The gyoza and the sauce they came with were fantastic.
We also ordered the vegan spicy tantan ramen and the vegan garlic miso ramen. The wait staff made a few hiccups with getting us the ramen we ordered. At first they brought out the garlic miso ramen with pork and then a different ramen that had both egg and pork on it. The staff was so apologetic and recovered gracefully. Once we had the correct vegan dishes, we raved about how delicious they were. The broth of the vegan garlic miso ramen was delightful!!
We appreciate the staff making everything right and getting us the dishes we ordered promptly. We enjoyed our evening out, and we will absolutely be back!
It was our first time coming to this restaurant and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere was soothing and welcoming. The food was served promptly and it was as described per menu and server. Our server's name was Ruby and she went above and beyond the expectations. She was extremely attentive and thorough. She also made our party feel welcome and comfortable and that is particularly hard with small children and she was off the charts amazing! Also the young man making sure our orders were right and our waters were never empty made us feel well taken care of and an amazing experience. We will definitely be coming back!
Went in on 12/12/2024, when we arrived there was about 6 people waiting to be seated as well as pick up their orders. It was 13 degrees in IL today. After being seated we noticed it was still very cold in this restaurant as we were seated by a Window. We moved to a table in the back and it still didn’t make much difference. We then happened to see their thermostat was set at 64! We were appalled that they had it so low. We could hear other customers commenting on the temperature & almost everyone was eating with their coats on. We also noticed that if you order wine or an alcoholic beverage, the Staff is actually walking outside to the next door restaurant to pour your drink & bring it back. We also witnessed a person walk in, pick up their order and leave without paying. The hostess ran outside but the woman ran away with her order. Needless to say, we will not come back here. The ramen overall was not all that great.
