Every bite was comforting and rich without being too heavy. The edamame was surprisingly amazing, perfectly seasoned and super fresh. And the shrimp tempura? Chef's kiss. Soft on the inside, light and crunchy on the outside, and not greasy at all. Everything we ordered hit. You can tell a lot of care goes into the food here. Definitely coming back next time I'm craving ramen.

I typically don't leave reviews but this restaurant was honestly the worst AYCE I've ever had in my…read morelife. Separately, also possibly the worst sushi place. We paid for their AYCE menu which includes a set menu; there's a disclosure on the menu "any leftover rice will be charged for" Understandably, if customers are unreasonably wasting food. We ordered two small rounds of sushi and didn't even want to eat anymore because the quality of fish was so disappointing. The amount of rice they put in the rolls is embarrassing. I'm from Japan and it's so disappointing and honestly heartbreaking that some people will eat here and will create a first impression of sushi which may cause them to not enjoy it from then on. For 4 sashimi, 4 nigiri, 3 hand rolls, and 2 maki, it took them one hour. $80. Sushi Taku is significantly better AYCE in Chicago, Sakana with the same namesake in Las Vegas, NV is significantly better as well. Side note, the waiter and waitress were extremely nice. This review does not reflect service.

As someone who moved to Chicago from the Bay Area CA, this place is by far the BEST I've had in…read moreChicago/Chicagoland yet. We arrived on a Saturday around 7:30 and they started getting packed and had a wait by 8. They are cash only but if you forget they have an atm inside as well! Prices are so shocking! Each bowl was about $14 which is the cheapest I've seen a bowl of pho in a looooong time. Food comes out pretty quickly. We order the appetizer fried shrimp Rangoon, bun Bo hue, pho dac biet, and avocado smoothie w/boba. The base of soup for both dishes was AMAZING! Good depth of flavor and not lacking anything. The bun Bo hue had a ton of meat and they even have the pork blood cubes! Pho dac biet was lacking a quantity of meat but good variety. The only complaint I have is the Avocado smoothie was very bland and didn't have much avocado taste. The boba tasted old because it didn't have its chewy texture anymore. Will DEFINITELY be coming back for the food!!!

I am from California traveling to Chicago…read more I really enjoyed the food at this restaurant. The bun bo hue was flavorful, and the rice with pork chop exceeded my expectations. Best of all, the prices are very affordable compared to other places I've tried. The goi cuon is only $5.50 for two rolls, while other restaurants charge around $7.50. I highly recommend this spot. Just keep in mind that they only accept cash, although there's an ATM inside.

If in need of late nights eats, dropping by the Casino is a decent option, and you can get some gambling in. Fish Fillet in Spicy Bean Sauce had a slightly crunchy exterior, but the fish was a bit chewy. Bean sauce was decent though. Large serving, but the thinish cut of fish meant the entire thickness was firmer than I would have liked. Salmon belly was much better. Center was moist and the tofu, and bok choy were very tasty. I would order this one again. Overall we are fans. Great open hours, Casino has tons of parking, and there is sufficient seating. Not a destination, but if my the casino, a very solid choice.

I recommend getting a reservation if you're coming with a big group, we had to find someplace else once because they weren't able to accommodate our slightly larger group (10ish) at that time. But thankfully there are tons of alternatives in that plaza. Anyway a good place to chill and have some good food.

After we were finished they offered to take us out for a celebration retirement dinner. They mentioned sushi. I quickly looked on Yelp & found a sushi restaurant named Nami Sushi @ 7344 W Lawerence Ave in Harwood Heights, IL that's rated 4.5 stars in Yelp. Nami Sushi is located in a strip mall on Lawerence Ave. We found that they have a fairly extensive menu of different sushi's. We started out w/several appetizers. The first one & of my favorites was the soft shell crab which was delicious. We also ordered several sushi rolls to be shared w/the table. They came together on one platter. One was an assortment of sashimi on rice. The pieces of sashimi were very skimpy. The other sushi roll was ok. The best appetizer was the soft shell crab deep fried & served w/a dipping sauce. After the appetizers we ordered our dishes. My wife and her friend ordered a chicken teriyaki dinner that came w/miso soup, an artistically arranged salad & chicken teriyaki which was mediocre quality chicken. Sorry to say the chicken wasn't very tender & kind of lacked flavor. My buddy says every time he flies to the Philippines (he's Guatemalan) they stop in either Japan or Korea he orders Tempura Udon in the airport. I ordered the shrimp tempura & vegetable tempura. The quantity was generous but the shrimp tempura batter was lacking. By this I mean good tempura batter/panko is very light, flaky & crispy, this was none of the aforementioned. The batter was heavy & lacked the consistency that shrimp tempura should have. The vegetable tempura was decent. I especially liked the onion & the red pepper as the tempura batter nicely complimented these vegetables. This also came w/miso soup & an artistically presented salad. Overall the restaurant is nice the service was good but sorry to say the food was lacking. For me personally I was disappointed as the Yelp reviews had 4 1/1 stars that I didn't feel were justified.

The pictures on the menu were helpful in knowing what to expect with each bowl of ramen order. We tried: TEMPURA APPETIZER, SPICY SHRIMP WONTON W/EGG, and SPICY RED MISO RAMEN W/EGG. I also ordered SPICY CHICKEN RAMEN W/EGG and (level 3 spicy) BEEF CURRY RAMEN to go. The broth for each ramen was flavorful, rich, and delicious. The noodles, eggs, protein, and vegetables in each bowl were also great. For me, I liked the spicy red miso ramen and the beef curry ramen the best. The flavors were savory and full of flavors. Thank you. 'Til next time!

This was like a cross between gyuudon and ramen and was exactly what I wanted. The curry/onion was perfect with the thinly sliced beef and the deliciously chewy noodles. The space is small and no-frills but does everything it is supposed to, the prices are good for an ENORMOUS bowl of ramen, and I will be back! (There is also parking, which is nice.)
