Kizuki Ramen and Izakaya

The sole Chicago outpost of Japanese chain Kizuki Ramen and Izakaya focuses on variety and customization in their steaming bowls of noodles. You'll find shio, shoyu, miso, chicken and even tsukemen dipping noodles on the menu, all available with regular or low-sodium broths and an assortment of toppings. If a bowl of noodles is too intimidating, try the octopus dumplings and croquettes from the Izakaya menu or take a seat at the bar and sample the saki selection.
