Bidrage med feedbackFirst time here and had the pork katsu curry. It was delicious!! 10/10 would recommend this place.
I had the Taiwanese Ramen. It was great overall, and somewhat between Japan level and immigrant level in terms of authenticity. Usually in the USA (even in Hawaii) such places don 't have the quality control of true Japanese immigrants to prevent less authenticity due to (con)fusion, but this place does has such QC!UPDATE Sat 20 May 2023 : Today 's food (spicy miso ramen and karage) are absolutely horrible. The cooking has really gone downhill since my review two years ago. I don 't know if it 's the cook or just the owners skimping on quality material, but at this higher price level the food was bland tasting and had a cheap Chinese restaurant style of appearance.They state the food is freshly prepared daily but the meat is quite not fresh and has the smell of being past its freshness. I wonder how old the actual ingredients are...Later that night and following morning, even after the bits I ate, I suffered food poisoning and irritable bowels
Tucked right in the heart of Vernon Hills. Cozy, okay service. Had the Taiwanese Ramen. Scallions, sprouts, and spicy pork. Now, I usually opt for more heat and a lot more flavor, but they only have one spicy option. It wasn't, but I was hungry so it was somewhat satisfying bland though.
Always love coming here with my family every other week since they opened. Pro tip though get here at like 4:57 or something, right before they open at 5, because it gets packed here in a hurry! For good reason the ramen noodles are a great texture, the broth is rich and made carefully. Nice selection of apps from gyoza to takoyaki, and limited ones like shrimp shumai or BBQ katsudon. Favorite part is how hot the food is, so it's super fresh with generous seasoning.Most of the staff is professional, except this wavy dark hair girl with glasses; she was condescending and unbothered that tables (same party size, similar food order) sat long after us were getting their food before us, while ignoring our empty appetizers plates long after finishing them. I understand when kitchens are held up, but the dispassionate attitude was unnecessary. When kindly asked to check on our food, she instead told us the kitchen was slammed, no apology, no follow up. That's not what we asked for; we asked for our food to be checked on, and were given a meaningless answer. I've seen her on past visits, and she's usually standing near the kitchen on her phone. It's fine if you don't mind a no urgency kinda rude server, that's your business.Otherwise, everyone else has a genuine attention to detail, friendly demeanors, and informative off menu information. Everyone else here are exemplary models of impactful and gracious hosting.
Good place for ramen. Broth was a little fatty for my test.
