★★★★★ 5.0 Wendy C · Oct 2025

My daughter’s ramen looked amazing and she loved it! She keeps craving it and she loves ramen so she’d be a good judge. I had the fried squid tentacles and they were tender, crunchy on the outside and tasty! I also tried their mochi ice cream and it was delicious! Good service and I loved the decor!

Love this place it does have the Japanese atmosphere to it play anime on TV and also play music you'll hear in Japan. Friend Ramen has a nice selection of food that's Japanese inspired and they are very delicious. The host is super inviting and very considerate and very warm person. The place is small but I don't mine it at all.

★★★★★ 5.0 Wendy's Magical Wand · Sep 2025

A friend recommended this place and wow it was so good. I got the spicy idk what it was called but it had pork belly and ramen and an egg and bamboo and it was soo good. Also the shrimp tempura with spicy mayo was delicious. My fighter did not like the white rice said it was too dry brushes liked the ramen and broth. Also the mochi ice cream strawberry and vanilla was delicious. We will be back again before we leave to try the kraaken chicken.

We love the ramen here. It carries great authentic flavors and heavy broths with American spins and favorites and have nice rice bowls and sides too. It's generally not bad value at all and it tastes good, so we would frequent this place.

★★★★★ 5.0 Eric Snell · Oct 2025

Absolutely loved everything about this spot. Stopped here randomly on our last day in Chicago and my family loved it. The Niku Ramen especially is a personal fave. I'll definitely stop in again on my next trip.
