Ordered takeout. It’s packed nicely and easy to mix. Good Tonkusu ramen

Azuma ramen in Englewood has an exquisite taste compared to every other spot I've tried. Splendid.

Was driving through after being stuck in two hours of traffic picking equipment in the area and was starving. Spotted this place and ordered gyoza to go. It was delicious. Worth the stop and bathroom break. Thank you!

My husband and I come here, this is the first place we came to on my birthday a few years a back. So we have always come as an our little cozy food place! The employees have always been kind. When we first came it actually reminded a lot like a family/friend vibe.. nice hospitality. Addicting cucumbers, chicken broth (I forgot the name) with a side of white thin noodles then even with a side of egg, plus an order edamame. Simple and yummy, great for cooling our stomachs. That’s our to go order. Thank you!Vegetarian options: Addicting cucumbers, edamame, egg, fish.

Really chill, relaxed atmosphere with great ramen and a ton of options. Also, some really good Japanese curry. Def worth checking out!

Update:2024 - Checked it out again hoping for improvement... service and taste were good but meat were paper thin slices. Volcano bowl was filled with cheap veggies. Eggs were good. Not worth it. I'd rather go Sandaime.___________3yrs ago - Small is the first thing I noticed! Taken in context, the regular price for Tonkotsu Ramen would have been $25.50 but it was B1G1 via UberEats, for noodles, a lot of soup, half egg, a piece of pork, some mushrooms and scallions. I was wondering why so expensive. However, when I look up their website, it's priced at $10.75 each! Does Uber set the price or does the restaurant set the price??? Taste was good though so this huge price difference is insane! Someone is trying to scam us!So I wrote to UberEats and they wrote back informing me that the restaurant sets the prices not UberEats. So, Azuma Ramen was scamming clients claiming B1G1 and jack up the price??? Hmmm....

Whether you love restaurant ramen, or have never tried it before, be confident that you must try this place if you haven't been.I've never had ramen at a restaurant before. So, while I am by no means an aficionado, I do love food and can confidently report on my experience.I visited the establishment for lunch (actually, I got there a little after 11, thinking they were open, and had to wait til they opened at 11:30. That is NOT on them, it's on my poor 'being able to remember what time they open when I looked them up' ability).When I walked in, I honestly thought I accidentally came in through a service entrance. It was that kind of a vibe. Then I noticed the tables and bar to the left. The atmosphere is almost kind of industrial, kind of grunge (everything looked distressed), and I have zero problem with that as long as I wasn't trying to enter through their kitchen or something. So no stars taken from Atmosphere (though I would suggest doing something with those chair legs so they don't make that horrible racket when you try sliding them out from the table or back to the table - still no stars deducted there, it just sent chills down my spine like nails on a chalkboard).My server (I didn't get his name) spoke English perfectly fine, but that wouldn't have been an issue. Their menu has good-sized pictures along with the name of the dish. I have NO idea how to pronounce Gyoza, so even with this 'English as a first language' server, I kind of just sheepishly pointed to my selection with a 'could I please have that?' Bonus, I wasn't laughed at or looked down on for doing that. There was another person who came by (wanted to know if I was finished, brought the check, processed the payment) whose English wasn't exactly fluent, but for goodness' sake, it's not hard to figure out what's being asked, and there's no non-xenophobic reason to have an issue with that. It's ramen, not a heart surgery consultation!I got the Ramen & Gyoza combo. I thought that was extremely reasonably priced, given the current pricing situation for restaurants in general, and for the amount of food I got. I almost went for their $13 lunch special, but decided I'd rather have the dumplings. I'm accustomed to dumplings, I get them from Chinese food places all the time.First of all, those dumplings have ruined Chinese food place dumplings for me. These things were so much more flavorful than what I was used to, I almost didn't know what to do with myself. The filling was actually pretty light/ airy, not like the lump-of-stuff inside (where you either just get a bite of the wrapping, or you get all the filling at once - at this establishment, every bite included wrapping AND filling with nothing falling out) that I was used to. And whatever that sauce was that they came with, was amazing.It wasn't hard to figure out what to do about the ramen bowl. Or maybe I did it wrong and no one decided to laugh at me. Chopsticks for the noodles and pork (if I managed to grab some mushroom or green onion with it, bonus), wooden spoon for the broth (definitely with green onion and/ or mushrooms). I went 50/50 on the egg. The flavor was, again, amazing. I enjoyed every single bite and on God, if there weren't other people in the restaurant, I would have been tipping the remainder of the bowl directly into my mouth.The combo overall left me feeling just slightly past satisfied, but way way short of feeling over-full. It was a perfect portion size, for a really really great price.I may or may not try other ramen places, just for comparison, but one thing that is guaranteed is that this establishment will always be in my 'ramen place' rotation.Oh, and fair warning: When I got there (again, they weren't open), the lot was empty. When I left 50 minutes later (12:20 pm), the lot was super full. It's not their fault that they're so popular (OR IS IT?), but definitely be prepared to hunt for parking elsewhere depending on t

Ramen was really delicious and the service was very good. The staff were very friendly. We had two kids with us and they made sure that we were comfortably seated in such a small space. They could serve the kids corn n rice upon request at a very minimum charge. The mango boba is a must try.

Food was pretty good. I would like better descriptors on the menu because I had some mushroom in my dish which I hate but it was still a good experience. But seating and dining area is very tight. Could hardly fit our order on the table its so small. I dislike that very much.
