   It was pretty busy, but I got my drink AFTER my food came. They also completely forgot to make it, happens!

   We enjoyed it here, although it's hard to pinpoint why. The noise level was quite high. But the service was excellent and suggestions were well taken. The ramen was very good, not great. The appetizers were better. And the doughnuts for desert were an unexpected treat.

   Visiting Chicago for the first time and as I am a big fan of ramen, I immediately looked up the closest ramen place to the hotel. It was fabulous!

   First time at this ramen restaurant. The vibe was fun and energetic. Modern alternative with a constant beat was playing. The service was kind of lack luster. Each table has interesting condiments that you can use to personalize the ramen, but our server could not be bothered to explain them even though he asked us if we had ever been there before and we said no. The “ramen pepper” in the tin is worth a try. The food is serviceable. The broth has a good flavor and the chashu was moist. The “molten egg” could have been more flavorful. The most lacking component were the noodles. They seemed like something you would get from Top Ramen in a grocery store. I also got the crispy Brussell sprouts and the Asahi super dry beer which is on tap and run through a chiller. Both of these were better than the ramen. Overall, this ramen place is serviceable, nothing special, and a bit expensive for what you get.

   When I die, I want to be turned into the 10 hour pork belly. Also the beer is different here, it’s as crispy as a McDonalds sprite. Wish I could rate 10/5. Keep it up
