Taichi Bubble Tea, Ramen and Poke Bowl - Mt. Prospect

A cute restaurant that my kids have always wanted to check out. A good selection of ramen, rice bowls and drinks. We ordered the Salmonopoly poke bowl, fried dumplings, roast pork rice box and the tonkotsu ramen. Delicious food, but a little on the small side for the price. For drinks, we ordered the jasmine milk tea, green apple smoothie, and the chocolate Zang Zang special, which was made too sweet. What surprised us was that one of the servers gave us tokens (the number depends on how much you spend on food) to play the claw machines which the kids enjoyed, and made out with a prize from one of them. So don't forget to ask about the tokens if they don't give you any after picking up your food from the counter!

Since Mitsua is so close, it's going to be very hard to beat their Japanese ramen, I thought. But I was wrong. After trying a meat bowl, I wanted to come back and try other things. This time we tried a Japanese ramen and poke. Both food were full of flavors and fresh. For poke, I could choose 1, 2, or 3 protein and I could totally customize other free ingredients. There were so much food! If you spend a certain amount of dollars, they also give you some token to play the claw machine, which was fun. Bubble tea was good, too!

Not bad, but I prefer other ramen places for the price. I tried the truffle ramen here, which was $17. The amount of noodles in the bowl was reasonable - not too much, not too little. I feel like the seaweed may have overwhelmed the truffle flavor a bit, so I would omit the seaweed if I try it again. I asked for spicy paste on the side, allowing me to control the spice level without further overwhelming the flavor. Finally, I selected beef for my protein choice, and received tender, flavorful slices of black pepper steak atop my bowl. This was one of the best parts of my dish. My husband got the tonkatsu ramen, which he liked fine, but again, we have other options we prefer for tonkatsu ramen when it comes to value, quantity, and quality. The bubble tea was not bad. I got the Pass

My first time checking out Taichi Tea ordered their Taichi Original Milk Tea with Red Bean and Pudding and Chicken Dumplings light and tasty truely enjoyed the Milk Tea Atmosphere and Decor fun very clean organized Definitely coming back to try their Poke Bowl and Ramen Recommend trying for yourself

Okay so I went here with my friends today. It is a really nice place. The food is really tasty. Probably the best sushi I've had, ever. Also the claw machines were fun!
