Price: Moderate
• Japanese • Logan Square
Booked 22 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.

    The food was delicious. We had a great server. I loved my salad. It had beets and walnuts, and the nuts were extremely fresh. My sister is a vegetarian, and the server suggested a pasta with cheese, looked like spaghetti. It was so delicious. I tried a little bit of it. We also had an almond cake that was very good with bourbon maple gelato. Tasted kind of boozy we loved it ha ha ha.

    A couple of us had the crab cakes and they were delicious and full of yummy crab. Those who had the fish special and steak were delighted with their meals as well. We were too full to even consider dessert. Archie was our server and he did a fantastic job. Overall it was a wonderful night out

    From the time we walked in until we left, we felt not but the utmost hospitality from the FoH staff. Our server was friendly, engaging, and knowledgeable about all aspects of the menu. The food came out timely and everything was delicious. We were seated near the chef’s counter and it was fun to watch things being prepared. The focaccia, cauliflower, beets, and short rib risotto were incredible and the cheesecake shouldn’t be missed. Highly recommend this for your next dinner spot
