Hokkaido Ramen House — Restaurant in Barrington Township

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Hokkaido Ramen House, and I am delighted to share my experience. From the moment I entered the restaurant, I was greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that set the tone for a wonderful meal.

The menu offered a diverse selection of ramen dishes, each showcasing the rich flavors and authentic ingredients characteristic of Hokkaido cuisine. I opted for the signature miso ramen, which was highly recommended by the staff. The broth was rich and flavorful, perfectly balancing the savory and umami notes that miso is known for. The noodles were cooked to perfection, providing a delightful chewiness that complemented the broth beautifully.

The toppings were plentiful and fresh, including tender slices of chashu, vibrant green onions, and a perfectly soft-boiled egg with a creamy yolk. Each ingredient was thoughtfully chosen to enhance the overall experience, and the presentation was both appealing and appetizing.

The service at Hokkaido Ramen House was exceptional. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, making recommendations that truly elevated my dining experience. I appreciated their willingness to accommodate dietary preferences and answer any questions I had.

In conclusion, Hokkaido Ramen House is a gem for ramen enthusiasts and casual diners alike. The combination of authentic flavors, high-quality ingredients, and outstanding service makes it a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a satisfying bowl of ramen. I look forward to returning to explore more of...

This was good ramen for the burbs. It was a bit of a drive to the Hoffman Estates location. However, we were able to get seated with no wait. If you check in via Yelp, you can get a free appetizer of crab rangoon. We also ordered chicken karaage, tonkotsu shoyu ramen, and black garlic tonkotsu ramen.

Food came out surprisingly fast. The staff was good at taking away the empty plates and bowls. Chicken karaage was good. Chicken was juicy, crispy, and cut in good size bite pieces. Crab rangoon was okay, I mostly tasted the cream cheese, I felt like there wasn’t much imitation crab meat in there. Tonkotsu shoyu ramen was delicious. I enjoyed sipping the rich, flavorful pork broth. Pork meat was nice and tender. It broke apart easily. Noodles were chewy and good. It’s a tasty ramen for the cold weather. Black garlic tonkotsu ramen, I liked the broth more than the shoyu. I found it addictingly savory and had a longer lasting impression on me. Prices were reasonable....

Food: 5/5 (So good!) Service: 5/5 (Great service!) Atmosphere: 5/5 (Love it here!)

What a lovely time and experience at Hokkaido Ramen House! Located in Hoffman Estates, IL., this restaurant was amazing all around! If you're looking for ramen and in the area, Hokkaido is your next stop.

The food was outstanding! We experienced the Miso Ramen with pork, Spicy Garlic Tonkatsu Ramen with chili oil, Crab Ragoon, and Gyoza (I took Spicy Beef Ramen to go). Flavors were on point, meals were delicious and innovative, and the prices were moderate. Don't dress your best, bring a messy shirt to eat in!

The service was admirable. There were great table manners, water cups were filled, the food came out hot and fast, and the staff appeared to love serving. Can't ask for a better experience!

The environment was great! The restaurant was clean, has a nice vibe, and had great pictures of the culture.

Hokkaido Ramen House was an all-around great...
