“Authentic Japanese fresh high quality ramen ! Monster Ramen top notch quality menu items! Highly recommended”

“You must eat here when in Chicago! We sat at the counter and were served by the chef herself! Ramen was fantastic and filling.”

“The Monster Ramen is very delicious. The broth is perfect. The beef jam is like the cherry on top.”

“MY WIFE & I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MONSTER RAMEN!!! Great service from the time you walk into the restaurant til the time you leave!!! I must say we found our RAMEN spot in Chicago!! I've ordered THE MONSTER which is a creamery broth which is 1 of the PREMIER RAMEN BOWLS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🍜🍜 and my MOST recent favorite the SHOYU PLUS which is a lighter based broth🔥🔥🔥🔥🍜🍜!!! I must say if you love a little kick to your meals get the homemade chili oil to add to your bowl!! I placed pictures with before & after chili oil!!”

“If you're going to order the monster bring your appetite. It's was a big bowl but totally worth it”

“Yeah its everything i thought it would be and then some. Ramen was amazing, but it was the service in the atmosphere that really made this experience for me”

“Visited for lunch with a friend for lunch on a Sunday. I tried to make a reservation ahead of time since I know it’s popular, but it didn’t seem like weekend reservations were available. We got there right when they opened at noon and were seated immediately. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was excellent. I wasn’t super familiar with the menu and our server walked us through it in a kind, helpful way that didn’t make me feel dumb for asking questions. The ramen I ended up choosing was incredible and the portion was huge, I had plenty left over for another meal. For anyone worried about long waits or getting turned away, there were still plenty of tables and counter seats open by the time we left at lunchtime on Sunday, granted it was also one of the first truly gorgeous days of the year in Chicago, so people may have been outside enjoying the weather.”

“Seen on DDD & had to try it. Our order was DELICIOUS!!! Got the Shoyu Plus and Monster Ramen bowls. The server was excellent - described the differences between the bowls really helped us determine our order. The restaurant was clean and food was served very quickly. 😋”

“OH. I’ll be back!!!!!! TOO good. The house shio took the cake for me. 100/10. Every dish exploded with flavor. Not one bit was simple. Cannot recommend highly enough.”

“Amazing food, friendly staff & the owner came out to welcome us.”
