Ramen-san is a lively, neighborhood restaurant and bar in River North reminiscent of traditional ramen shops in Japan. The menu is created by Chef/Partner Doug Psaltis and Executive Chef Marcelo Han. Ramen-san showcases elevated ingredient across seven ramen dishes offered on the menu. These include a traditional tonkotsu pork broth, kimchi and fried chicken ramen - a nod to Chef Han’s Korean heritage, and a vegetarian broth. In addition to the food, mixologist Paul McGee developed a beverage program, that features Japanese whiskey, Asian-inspired cocktails and local and Japanese craft beer with Asahi on draft served through a special draft tower imported from Japan. The space is raw, anchored by exposed brick and reclaimed wood, which makes for an understated, yet inviting ambiance. Ramen-san has a comfortable, approachable space where diners can enjoy noodles in a casual setting for dinner and late night.
