Ordered carry-out from the Vernon Hills location and loved it! Fantastic quality ramen, flavorful broth and still hot after getting it home. Miso Ramen and Taiwan Ramen are fantastic, but beware that single pepper icon, because it’s no joke! (And I say this as someone who grew up eating spicy food 🙂) Delicious, but intense! I would LOVE to see a milder version of the Taiwan Ramen (or at least a way to adjust the heat, like the Spicy Miso), because the flavor was truly amazing and addictive.
Katsu here is a must try, service ain’t to the satisfaction

I honestly don’t have many complaints. Service was very good, we came closer to 8 pm so the restaurant was not packed. The server checked up on us often. We decided to go with a couple of the specials on the board. We ordered tako karaage, special tonkotsu ramen, and gomoku ramen. I decided to add in extra protein in mine (gomoku ramen). I added extra tamago and cha siu. Prices were reasonable for the portions we received. I also want to add that the hours on Yelp are wrong. They are only closed on Mondays. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are the same time as the other days.
-tako karaage 5 - deep fried octopus. I recommend trying this if you need a chance of pace from ordering gyoza, takoyaki, or karaage. The portion was just right and it had good size octopus. It had a nice crunch and I really liked the texture of the octopus. It wasn’t overcooked.
-Gomoku ramen with extra protein 4.5 - tamago had a nice yellow-orangish hue yolk. Cha siu was easy to tear apart with your teeth and had good flavor. It was slightly dry. Ramen had a good amount of veggies. Noodles had some chew. Broth is similar to shoyu. Not too salty. There are also small pieces of pork.

The best “go to “ place-
When you want something flavorful-or spicy or even better
Something ( garlicky ???)
Never have been disappointed-
Always puts me into a “food
Coma”
I can’t wait for cooler temps—- o my because when it is
Sweltering— a bowl of temperature hot noodles- and spicy hot flavor-
Perfect for a fall or winter lunch or dinner.

The spicy Taiwan ramen is solid. Not a typical ramen by my standards. The crumbled pork is Smokey and it adds a diff taste than what I’d expect from “regular” ramen. It’s a departure from the norm. Highly recommended.

I've come here twice at this point. My first time I ordered their Taiwan Ramen. It was my first time having that kind of ramen and I really enjoyed. Just the right level of spice and the flavor of the soup was fantastic. It was loaded with ground pork to round it out.
The second time I came here I got the spicy miso ramen. This one I wasn't the biggest fan of. While it was definitely very spicy, the flavor of the soup was lacking. Toppings were solid though. I also had ordered their tuna bowl but they sadly did not have it.
Both times I went the service was great. The waiters and waitresses are very kind and friendly. The food comes out quickly. It's got a great atmosphere. Awesome Japanese restaurant. Will definitely come back and eat my way through their menu.

Very expensive for what you get- portions are not equal to $
Sushi is over wrapped in rice to make it appear larger
We decided to give it a try and the ramen is good, that’s it, no the best no the worst, just ok. We won’t go back because, in our opinion, there are better places around. By the way it’s first time I have lettuce in a ramen and the noodles felt a little bit like spaghetti.
