    Akahoshi Ramen

    Logan Square

    Mike 'Ramen Lord' Satinover's Logan Square counter is The Infatuation's #1 bowl in the city and made Bon Appétit's Best New Restaurants of 2024 — the reservation hardest to land in Chicago.

  2. 2

    Ramen Wasabi - Logan Square

    Logan Square

    A 45-hour tonkotsu broth that Time Out and The Infatuation both rank in the top tier — the velvety, porky benchmark on Milwaukee Avenue.

  3. 3

    High Five Ramen

    West Loop

    The hidden basement ramen bar below Green Street Smoked Meats whose blazing spicy tonkotsu is the cult West Loop bowl.

  4. 4

    River North

    The Lettuce Entertain You flagship that kicked off Chicago's modern ramen wave in 2014 — still the city's default late-night noodle room.
