6. Akahoshi Ramen

Exceptional(347)

Price: Moderate

• Japanese • Logan Square

Booked 16 times today

Akahoshi Ramen is a humble ramen shop in the city of Chicago. Everything is made in the restaurant, including all soups, seasonings, toppings, and noodles. We are not an authentic ramen shop, though we value the history of ramen, and our ramen is influenced by its past and its future potential. The dish, popularized in Japan after World War 2, is symbolic of both struggle and perseverance. It is both a simple dish, and a fantastically complex one that we treat with reverence and respect. Roughly translating to “Red Star,” the name “Akahoshi” is a love letter to two cities; Sapporo, Hokkaido, where red stars adorn city monuments, and Chicago, Illinois, where the red star decorates the city flag. Our ramen is influenced by Japanese and American ideals in cooking. We hope you will join us to enjoy a bowl of ramen, made with the respect and passion it deserves.

My friend and I had a fantastic experience at Daisies last night! I moved to Logan Square about four months ago and this restaurant came highly recommended by so many. The ravioli and the rigatoni were absolutely divine! So wonderful to have this gem just a few blocks away. Highly recommend!

We did the tasting menu which was excellent. Some of the cocktails were quite good as well. The noise level is difficult to tolerate if you really wanna have a conversation. It’s exceptionally loud. I found it minorly annoying that the waiter spoke with a soft tone and would keep changing His head position so I couldn’t hear what I was eating half the time. But other than that the food was exceptional and the quality of service was excellent.
