“Our experience here has been phenomenal - this place was recommended to me by all my coworkers and we were passing by. We ordered the Gyoza, the Chicken Karage, the Tokyo Miso Cha Shu ramen, and a Hakkaido Cha Shu ramen. The Hakkaido broth was good but a little too rich for me, but the Tokyo Miso Broth is absolutely amazing - it's light enough without being bland, noodles were decent, the Cha Shu pork was really good, and all other small soup components (cabbage, corn, etc) added a lot of flavor and detail to each bite. Gyoza was not bad, Karage was amazing and juicy. Overall love the vibe of this place and how simple and straight forward everything was. Highly recommend, this may be my new favorite ramen shop in the Chicagoland area.“
“Ordered Tonkotsu ramen, Kaarage, Gyoza and avocado sushi.The ramen consistency was great, Broth had a distinct but wonderful flavor and it was frothy which I liked. The toppings were also great. Eggs soft boiled to perfection and I didn’t have much of the chashu but it was also good.The Karaage was also good. Breading was great and they use dark meat which was a pleasant surprise.Gyoza was good too. Less crispy then most and I like that but maybe some might not.Sushi was also top notch. For some reason its not on the online menu but I highly recommend.I also had a taste of someone else’s katsu don and It was good.The staff are incredibly nice and considerate and there was not much wait for our food (Infact, some of the ramen came before the appetizers!)I only give the atmosphere a 3/5 because the sun glares through the window and it can be quite annoying.P.S. Big portions on the ramen so be prepared for leftovers!All in all, HIGHLY RECOMMEND for ramen lovers in chicago.“
“Don't be fooled by the appearance! Behind the modest dining area with 3 tables and a narrow counter is hiding an amazing Japanese chef who is not only brilliant in delivering the highest quality of sushi and sashimi, cooking delightful hot dishes but also pays close attention to the presentation of his creations. My sashimi selection was delightful and miso soup very tasty. The nice nod to the classic Japanese cuisine was a delicious assortment of Japanese pickles. My husband loved the incredible dressing of the house salad, the right consistency of the egg rolls, and the freshness of the shrimp tempura roll. He was particularly fond of the rich flavor of his gyoza. Kelly made us feel very welcome at her restaurant. We cannot wait to be back at this hidden gem! Bravo, Akira-San! Save our table“
“Best Thai food ever!! The potstickers and pad Thai are toooo die forrrrr! Along with that the Shumi, Crab Rangoons, and Mango sticky rice is fantastic!! Affordable prices, great food and most importantly the best owner in the whole world! Jimmy is the sweetest person ever and you can see how much he cares about each customer! You have to try it outttttt“
“Absolutely delicious Japanese food. You can order at the counter (they’ll bring it to you) or you can order on your phone and leave a tab open (and close out at the end). We got a meal set with shio mackerel and katsu with ponzu, udon, edamame, and a large katsu curry. Everything was delicious and authentic. The prices are great for the portions and quality. If this place were near us in the city, we’d be in trouble. #curryeveryday“
“Absolutely loved the chicken ramen and chicken karaage at this place! Both dishes were bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. The service was top-notch too, with friendly staff ensuring a pleasant dining experience. Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Japanese cuisine and excellent service!“
“First time here last week and last night (2/23/2024), we came back and dined with friends. There were 9 of us in the group. Food was delish! We had diff types of sushi, ramen, gyoza, edamame, and Taiyaki with vanilla ice cream for dessert. All were delish and brought to our table quickly. The place was clean and staff were efficient. We sat on the part of the restaurant where you sit on the floor while you eat. We enjoyed the authentic Japanese dining set-up. They have various Japanese beer and wine, and dessert options as well. Prices are slightly higher than other Japanese restaurants nearby (Ari Sushi in Des Plaines & Sushi Nikko in Arlington Heights) but we can deal with it because of the efficient service. I think this becoming one of our fave sushi places.“
“The poke bowl was a flavor-packed delight, boasting an abundance of fresh fish meat perfectly balanced with vibrant ingredients. Every bite offered a harmonious blend of flavors, leaving me craving more. With its generous portions and impeccable taste, this poke bowl is a must-try for any seafood enthusiast.Parking: Up to 4 empty spots during pick up“
“Great food very fresh and plenty of protein!I've had beef and chicken bulgogi Only bad side no banchan sides at allHad to order a small side of Kimchi for $3 .. considering the plates are $15 or $16 it should be included otherwise everything else is great, have been here 3 times now during my lunch time“
“I like the food of this place better than their Schaumburg location, the original chef from their 1st location was there cooking when we went. Service is still on the learning stage as you could tell the server wasn't on top of things yet. The decor was beautiful, best one of all their branches.“
“I can't believe I never tried Torino until now! We live walking distance and I placed an order for pickup. Wow, the freshness and quality of the food was fantastic. Loved my tuna avocado roll! The space is warm and inviting and it looks like a nice bar, too. Will definitely be back to dine in!“
“The food delicious , sushi was very tasty . The desserts were pretty good . My family and I enjoyed the atmosphere here as well as the delicious sushi rolls . We got spicy salmon, spider roll ,caterpillar ,kamikaze ,chili mango . All very delicious .“
“We already love the food here. My teenaged daughter’s number 1 pick of places to go for dinner. But wow, last night we went there as a treat to celebrate her birthday. I happened to mention that on the phone when reserving a table. And wow…the servers were so nice and after we were done with dinner, they had the robot come out with bday music and an adorable gift, which she LOVED. (Not spoiling the surprise). It was so thoughtful and special. THANK YOU for your surprise and kindness!!! :)“
“It's a small place but worth the trip I've been to many ramen shops in the city but this is by far the best one I've had, Their spicy chili oil was like no other, they had other items besides ramen. Me and my daughter will be coming here more often.“
