Akahoshi Ramen is a humble ramen shop in the city of Chicago. Everything is made in the restaurant, including all soups, seasonings, toppings, and noodles. We are not an authentic ramen shop, though we value the history of ramen, and our ramen is influenced by its past and its future potential. The dish, popularized in Japan after World War 2, is symbolic of both struggle and perseverance. It is both a simple dish, and a fantastically complex one that we treat with reverence and respect. Roughly translating to “Red Star,” the name “Akahoshi” is a love letter to two cities; Sapporo, Hokkaido, where red stars adorn city monuments, and Chicago, Illinois, where the red star decorates the city flag. Our ramen is influenced by Japanese and American ideals in cooking. We hope you will join us to enjoy a bowl of ramen, made with the respect and passion it deserves.

Step back in time to when going out for dinner meant something really special. From the decor to the jazz music, Wildfire has the style and warmth that makes it perfect for celebrating with friends or a quiet evening for two. The extensive menu features broiled steaks and chops, wood-roasted seafood and roasted meats, all prepared in an open kitchen. Signature dishes include Horseradish Crusted Filet Mignon, Macadamia Nut Crusted Halibut, Wildfire Chopped Salad and Cedar Planked Salmon. So order a signature martini or one of our many wines by the glass, then sit back and enjoy the 1940s supper club experience of Wildfire.

    This was our first time here. I did not realize it was so big. It was very busy, but we were seated for our reservation only having to wait a minute or two. Service was very friendly and attentive. Pasta was cooked perfectly and sauce delicious. Dessert and cappuccinos were a wonderful way to end the evening. Overall a great experience and we will definitely go back.

    Chasu was melt in your mouth without any overdoneness in the muscle. Came in without knowing all they served was ramen and thrice sides. Wished there was more but as a fan, I would not have been disappointed knowing this ahead of time so be prepped with the correct appetite. Broth was out of this world. Egg was jammy and perfect. A true passionate chef with a vision to deliver.

    This was a special beer dinner. Like others we've attended at Wildfire, it was fantastic. The rep from the craft brewer (in this case Bell's) always does a nice job telling the story of the brewer and the particular beers served that night. The Wildfire chefs always create excellent pairings for the beers. None of the food is on the regular Wildfire menu, but all of it is delicious. The portions are generous, and we often take some home. These events are always held in one of the private rooms, and we're assigned a round table with others. It's fun to meet new people while enjoying the special food and beer pairings. Also, for those who don't know, Wildfire holds similar events with various brands of wine and spirits. Get on their email list so you can attend!
