    Interior

    Sushi in Chicago - I truly love a great sushi restaurant especially if it's in one of my favorite cities. When our Airbnb just suggested this place for the vibes I was happily surprised. We came here on a Tuesday afternoon and we were seated promptly! Very nice interior and decor and a very modern clean look. We ordered a variety of rolls and I noticed that they have lots of options for vegetarian roles as well which was great. Food was fresh and delicious and ambiance was ten stars. Highly recommended if you're in the Chi!!

    We ordered Uber Eats and the food came fresh. We tried: - Salmon Sunrise Bowl - Spicy Roasted Garlic Miso Ramen - Sakura - Nigori Strawberry (sake) It was plenty of food. The fish and rice were both fresh. I really enjoyed the ramen broth, great for a cold day.

    My goal is to try 50 new Chicago restaurants in 2025! Restaurant: 22/50 Month tried: April Favorite dish: Spicy roasted garlic miso ramen Walked into Blowfish on a whim when we were in the area and we were very impressed! We started with the stuffed avocado which was delicious and silky. Then I wasn't much in a sushi mood so I got ramen, which was a huge portion and so flavorful. My sister in law always orders delivery from Blowfish now after finding it! I definitely need to go back for sushi.

    Blowfish ramen is a beautiful restaurant in a beautiful area! The ambience is wonderful for dinner & very good for lunch. Our service was amazing, the pork buns come in 3s but when me & my mother walked in they gave us 4! The employees are amazing & the food is even more incredible! 10/10 recommend!

    The mango mochi was good

    Snowball and scallop sashimi

    I got the seaweed salad which is a large portion for an appetizer. Has cucumbers so hefty. Also got scallops sashimi which was fresh and the snowball. The white tuna was a bit over flamed for my taste. But overall great. Service was fast at 6pm on a Thursday. I love that there is a glass bottle of water on the table at the ready. Bathroom is clean. Staff nice and efficient.

    I came here unsure what I wanted because everything on the menu looks so good. I brought my own seltzer for the BYOB (there is a $4 charge) and started with the snowball appetizer. They were so good! Strong truffle flavor. I also for the moonrise roll and I was sooo pleased. HOWEVER, halfway through the roll there was some unpleasant crunching... it must've been crab shell? There was crab mix in the roll and no shrimp so I don't know what else it could have been, but I did take some shell out of my mouth. That part was disappointing and was in 3 pieces. I knocked off two stars for that because it was really off putting while finishing the roll. I will say, the food was really good and I do see myself going back, but that part was unfortunate. Next time I'm hoping we can redeem some stars! Will update.

    So good, very fast service, very good sushi. The diet coke is cold. I went here for a birthday

    I have been here twice now, and left full and happy both times. Their sushi is fantastic, and the portions are HUGE! Most rolls Come with 8-10 Pieces, so it's a GREAT deal! This will absolutely be my go to spot for sushi! Their snowball appetizer is stellar, as well as their Sakura roll. Both have truffle on it, and it's just an AMAZING flavor!! The red dragon is a must try, and there was another roll it a crunchy beet that was delicious. i know it started with a F but can't remember the name Service is always excellent, and the vibe is here so chill. Pretty space and great mix of people, easy to make reservations. You'll definitely leave feeling full and content!

Had the tonkotsu with spice umami (it's always a hit), the sesame mai tai, and my husband had the spicy chicken paitan ramen and naked & famous. I was surprised at how tasty his ramen was! I may get it next time as it was as (if not more?!) delicious than my tonkotsu! I can't wait for next time.. this place has held up for years and I'm extremely confident it will continue to do so for many more.

The Alaskan cod sandwich was served on a bed of cabbage covered in a sweet teriyaki & brown mustard sauce with maybe a squeeze of kewpie sprinkled in between. The Berkshire pork eggrolls had microgreens & shaved radish on top of a crema type of sauce that balanced the heat of the kimchi nicely!! For the main attraction I ordered the spicy garlic ramen that was such a delightful mouth experience it really hit all the taste buds! The noodles were perfectly bouncy with the right amount of chew. The jellied egg was perfect and rounded the soup very well! The red chili threads enhanced the spicy miso broth just enough to slurp all the delicious goodness down! My husband ordered the Sapporo miso soup which had more of a creamy type of broth vs the spicy garlic. The noodles were also thinner than regular ramen & had a bouncy springy texture that just hit the spot! Since it was kinda chilly outside we also ordered hot green tea to accompany our spectacular ramen dishes. This place also offers delicious seasonal cocktails on the menu or hot sake if that's what you are hankering for. Definitely try this ramen joint if you are in the Logan square area your tummy will be so happy that you did!!

I was seated at a table and they brought out water right away. But that's where the service stopped. I was handed 3 menus... food, drinks, cocktail. It took forever to get one of the servers to come over and take my order. They were all huddled by the kitchen and hostess stand chatting with each other and on their cell phones. Finally one of them walked by my table and I had to get her attention and told her I would like to order. She brought out the iPad then looked around seeing if someone else should probably take the order. I felt I inconvenienced her. Got the tonkatsu shoyu ramen with black garlic and the takoyaki. Food came out fast. Takoyaki after the ramen but the takoyaki was delicious. Soft and creamy on the inside with the octopus was very tender. It was topped with plenty of katsuoboshi. Ramen was another story. Noodles had a really good chew as they advertised using sun noodle company. However the broth tasted very watered down and did not have the rich flavor and usually fat globules that make the soup. Cha siu was charred beautifully and portion size was good. Hopefully they can focus on the front of house service and the team can pay attention to customers. Maybe this is why there were only 6 customers at prime dinner time.

    I'm sitting here in my living room, mired by an early, uninvited awakening. It was not a thud. No…read morealarm. Just a gentle frazzle of sunlight stealing me from night. In no way had my body rested. Donned in dawn, my underwear-pajamas slightly slid down revealed a sad vision of man, sloppily tangled in ruffled sheets. Exposed. There is nothing pretty about me, I thought, as I pondered if the sunlight were judging what it saw. Before reaching my current perch on the living room couch, I sat in bed flicking through news in search of something good, but simultaneously only pausing on the bad. Glorifying in the doom, really. It was the pinch I needed to prove I was indeed awake. All day I seek the pinch of pain to prove I am not dreaming. Coffee, cats, clothes, splashof water, and 20 steps later I find myself in the planning pose, here in the living room. The planning pose is very much like the wake-startle, sans the sheets and exposed crack. It involves me laying here on the couch actually reading the articles I perused earlier. I like to rationalize that the information gleaned is to set me up for a day of human interaction. Perhaps it is a study session to get up to human-social-speed. Right now it is dawning on me -- my second uninvited dawn of the day -- that perhaps behavior isn't responsible humanity, it is prolonged self torment. The tighter pinch. The proverbial purple nurple of challenging my awakened state. Cats gather around me. One at my feet and the other curled beside my thigh. Am I king to them? They are fed. Surely they are not here in need of something. Have I done something to warrant this attention? My affection toward them is inconsistent. It ebbs in startling fits of overly attentive playing or petting followed by long droughts of disregard. My ambivalence as their king gives me this luxury, and supports my theory that they may think I am indeed king. This is the type of cyclical example loop I am using as evidence to propel me from the underwear'ed fat man the sun observed moments ago. Evidence that says: "See, Sun, I am more than the larva you spotlighted. I am a god! The cats are evidence! And they sleep in your sun-puddles in undisputed, recognizable perfection, not the ugly crack-exposed heap you found me in. You love them. They love me. So, pinch yourself, and stop judging me!" Obviously the coffee is working, or maybe the cats are doing their trick: making me feel accepted in the universe. Whatever the case may be, I pet my cat. Dander floats into the sun's beams and crystallizes in the air. If you've ever seen dust in a thinly sliced light beam at dawn you know: Hope is the accidental luck of shadows bouncing off of the chaos but always cutting through. Always meeting a surface. Penetrating the thickest of atmospheres and colliding on flowers and alleys, on well planned solar panels, on potholes, through any crack, on my crack, projecting obtuse triangles, acute bi-angles, and isosceles quad-tangles, even while penetrating deep into the sea, revealing all the magnificent details of art, and occasionally falling on me. Trees bend to it. I give the cat closest a good scratch behind the ear and look out the window at the trees greening in spring. A dog walker pauses to pick up excrement. A squirrel cowers behind a branch. The ramen restaurant on the corner is cut through by light warming empty tables; tables preparing to slurp up hungry, hopeful lunchers into the belly of contentment. Dark, seemingly an antagonist to light's hero demeanor, sheepishly slinks away, humbly realizing it is not the opposite of light, but the absence. "Beautiful," I think as I see the spicy broth of life warming in the sun glow beyond the glass. Yes. It is beautiful. It really is. I couldn't see how much in the dark but the rhythm out the window is now clear. I turn to my cat, who is winding down a purr. We share a slow-blink gaze at one another as the last sliver of dawn is replaced with shadow in my house. He moves to the window sill to soak in every second as it departs. "Welp, buddy. Nothing left now. Time to bend to the light"

I enjoyed The Monster ramen that I got, the broth was super flavorful and perfectly creamy. I loved the beef jam and Wagyu chashu, Although, I will say the noodles themselves didn't really stand out. I enjoyed my ramen but I'm not sure I would get it again. I would definitely come back to try their other ramen though.
