    I really enjoyed this Japanese restaurant in Oak Park. The atmosphere was great--warm, inviting,…read moreand a nice place to relax and enjoy a meal. We tried several dishes from the menu, and everything we ordered was delicious. One thing I noticed was that the restaurant stayed pretty busy the whole time we were there. There was a steady flow of customers coming in, which is usually a good sign that the food is consistently good. Overall, it was a great experience. Good food, great ambiance, and excellent service. I can definitely see myself coming back again to try more items on the menu. Highly recommended if you're looking for a good Japanese restaurant in Oak Park

    Very average ramen, but I would still revisit again. I ordered the chicken ramen and once I added a…read moregood amount of chili oil, i definitely enjoyed it more. I was seated immediately upon entering on a Sunday afternoon, but there's only a limited number of private booths, so I was seated at a table that was right in the path of the breeze from the door. I asked if there was anywhere else I could be seated because it was very cold out that day and was told the bar was the only other option, so not the most comfortable dining experience. Staff and service were pleasant though. I also wish they had a full bar, they mostly only had bottled drinks that, which were kind of pricey. Overall, I would return if I was in the area, but it's nothing I'll be dreaming about. Maybe the other locations are more impressive.

    Stopped in on a Thursday to take advantage of the $10 off the Diamond package and it was well worth…read moreit! Not gonna lie, I wasn't crazy at the thought of cooking my own meat LOL But it went way better than I thought! We took turns cooking in my group and we tried soo many meats and they were mostly all delicious! The short ribs and wagyu fillet mignon were the best by far! Super delicious! We didn't have many veggies or any rice, but the few veggies we had were good. Staff was friendly, attentive and brought out our food very shortly after we ordered. You get a tablet when you sit down and you're able to order everything from there, which I loved because I could really take my time and go through all the options..which are plenty!! lol Really loved this place! We'll def be back.

    We love Gyumon and are so happy for an AYCE bbq so close to home! It's also conveniently located…read morenear the Oak Park train station so it's super easy for visitors to come out to try it! Paid parking is super easy nearby, too. You get $10 off your package at lunch, which is super convenient. We like to do the middle package which has all of our favorites. Everything is ordered via iPad so it's really easy to put in what you want and see all of the options. Super fun unique thing -- they do s'mores for dessert if you'd like! We always leave feeling very full haha. We love the variety of foods and meats here compared to other AYCE bbqs. There's enough to try a lot of things and not feel pigeon holes into one meat. Every standard appetizer you can think of and also sushi and handrolls are a nice touch! I always get at least two handrolls and the quality is always really good. The staff is really nice and explains the process well. They come around often to pick up empty plates. We've only been for lunch so it's not too busy and we've never had to wait. Dinner might be different. It's a pretty cool interior and decorated uniquely.

    This place is more like 4.5 stars. We always wanted to try this place so slid in to see what was…read morecracking! They have Chinese, Thai & Japanese cuisine along with hibachi service. We were there for some Chinese food. They give you complimentary hot tea when you sit down. The service was ok at best. Nice inside not very big but it's clean and has some cozy booth type seats along with open table seating. We ordered some Jumbo shrimp fried rice, Singapore noodles, pad se eew and a sampler appetizer platter. The appetizer platter came with 2 egg rolls, 2 dumplings, 2 bbq ribs, 2 shrimp toast, 2 crab Rangoons & 2 fried shrimp. The egg rolls were fresh and full of meat!! Very crispy and delicious! 7/10 I didn't have the dumplings I don't care for them myself but my wife likes them she gave them a 6.7/0 she said she's had better. The Ribs had a nice bite and flavor to them just a tad tough for me. 6/10 The shrimp toast was my favorite of the appetizers the were crispy not greasy and the shrimp was definitely there. I enjoyed the flavor of them. 8/10 The crab Rangoon however were a disappointment to me. They were definitely missing the green onion and crab! lol. Mostly cream cheese but fried well 4/10. The fried shrimp were ok. Average 5/10 They give you a lot of food for your money! As all the dishes had a great amount of protein in them! They don't skimp on the meat at all. The jumbo shrimp fried rice a great flavor and nice texture. You can taste smokiness in it. 7.5/10 The Singapore Noodles was loaded with shrimp, chicken and bbq pork, egg and veggies. It had a kick to it from the curry very flavorful and the texture of the noodles were spot on! 7.5/10 the pad se eew was also loaded with beef! (You have the option of protein) the beef was very tender, the sauce had a nice spice level and the noodles were perfectly cooked. 8/10 all in all i would definitely recommend checking them out! My bill was a little over $63 and well worth it. I'm definitely returning to them. Remember ALL reviews are SUBJECTIVE

    I reserved a table for 10 people for my mother's birthday with a 7:00 p.m. reservation. My party…read morearrived at 6:55 p.m., and I asked about our table three different times between 7:00 and 7:30. Each time, I was given a different excuse. First, I was told they were waiting for a table to open up. Then they were waiting on a cook. Finally, a staff member said the people at our reserved table were still eating and they were waiting for them to get up. When I asked when our table would actually be ready, she laughed, threw her hands up, and said she didn't know. What made the situation even worse was watching other customers walk in and be seated while we continued to wait. From what I observed, Black families were waiting extended periods of time, while White and Mexican customers were seated much more quickly. A party of 15 that arrived well after us was even seated before my group. I am deeply disappointed and disgusted by the treatment my family received on my mother's birthday. This would have been her first hibachi experience, and instead it was ruined by poor customer service and what appeared to be unfair treatment. I will never return and would not recommend this restaurant based on my experience.
