Torino is a restaurant that offers Japanese cuisine, known for its delicious ramen and creative broths, such as the yuzu citrus one. The cucumber salad and bao buns are also popular choices, with the latter priced per unit for customization. The sushi is solid, and the cocktail program is well-regarded. The space is warm and inviting, reminiscent of authentic Japanese establishments like Tokyo's Ramen street. Freshness and quality are prioritized, as seen in their takeout and dine-in options. The bar serves customers with attentive and efficient service. Guests praise the exceptional food and service, calling it the best Japanese cuisine in Chicagoland. They enjoy dishes like takoyaki, pork & shrimp bao, and curry ramen, often complemented by Japanese whiskey flights featuring favorites like Yamazaki and Hibiki. The outdoor seating on warm nights enhances the experience, and the friendly staff, including attentive servers, adds to the positive atmosphere. Many visitors are pleased to find surprisingly good ramen outside downtown Chicago, praising the noodles for their perfect thickness and chewiness. Some mention that the soup stock can be a bit salty, catering to American tastes, but overall, the quality remains high. The restaurant is great for casual meals, with plenty of seating on Fridays, and is highly recommended for those seeking authentic Japanese food.
