ICHI by Torino — Restaurant in New Trier Township

Came to the restaurant after visiting our favorite dentist next door. We ordered a karaage ramen and a Kotsu-Dom. Ramen was well prepared and very flavorful. However, the fried pork chop was a little dry and smoothered with dipping sauce, way too much for my taste, in the kutsodom. Because the restaurant is set up for take-out, so everything is packaged in to-go containers. It takes some assembling for the ramen, but domburi is similar to a bento ready to eat. Although it's a take-out restaurant, there are seatings available, a very large communal table and a few seats by the window.

We'll definitely return to try more items...

Found this place right off the highway (94). We were tired of fast food. My daughter is a ramen connoisseur. She loved it. She loved the pork ramen. I loved the pork ramen as well. Emi is incredible. Very informed. Knew about what foods might be processed with peanuts as my daughter has an allergy. They don't use peanuts which was nice. But she still checked on the pork Chashu to be absolutely sure. Very friendly too! So good we brought some home for the boyfriend. Totally casual. But they do have a sit down as well across town....

A small Japanese place mainly for takeout. The ramen is pretty good, just not as flavorful as I expected. But it’s still good and definitely more affordable than other places I’ve tried. The onigiri was very good and I think it’s a cool idea to rotate through the selections each day. The boba is also pretty decent. I haven’t tried other items but I will be ordering more especially since they are near where I live. The online takeout ordering process is very easy and the staff are very friendly. Perfect local spot for when I’m craving...
