"Quite possibly the smallest ramen portion I’ve ever seen by chicago and Japanese standards, it’s about 2/3 the size of an average ramen bowl. Two entree and two boba came out to be over $50 after fees and tips, which is not worth it in our opinion for what you are getting.We tried the sukiyaki ramen and sukiyaki don. The ramen broth is tasty, though there is a hint of msg which is really not necessary. The sukiyaki don has a tiny amount of beef on top of rice, and half an egg, which is not at all worth the $15 price tag. The only thing we were impressed with was the ramen egg, which was perfectly soft and seasoned.Onto the Oolong boba, which tasted powdery and watered down; however the boba...

We went in February 19th, so hopefully some things have changed.Honestly, the ramen here was very underwhelming. Compared to the other spots that we've been to, it was fairly below average. The staff helped you out and the atmosphere was nice. But the food itself was just very...bland.I'd like to give this place a 2nd chance if I get the opportunity, but I'm not too sure
