About Us
At Tanaka Ramen & Izakaya, we bring the heart of Japanese comfort food to the city of Chicago. Our signature ramen is crafted with rich, slow-simmered broth, fresh noodles, and quality ingredients. From classic tonkotsu to spicy miso, we serve bowls that warm both the body and soul.
Beyond ramen, we offer crispy appetizers, Japanese curry rice, milk tea cocktails, and izakaya-style small plates—perfect for sharing. Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch, enjoying dinner with friends, or celebrating a birthday, Tanaka is your cozy go-to spot.
We welcome group reservations and birthday parties! Large tables available for groups of 4 or more with reservation.
