I'm a regular at Union. It's a trendy Ramen spot with modern decor, great service and great food. I've tried so much of the menu but I usually stick to the miso ramen with add-ons including corn, spinach and an extra seasoned egg. It's soooo good- I have yet to find better meatless ramen in the city. Their wings are pretty great as well. Sticky, spicy, crispy and delicious. The service is always friendly and efficient. I like to go on any given Friday or really any day, especially when it's a chilli day- perfect ramen slurping conditions.

We got there about 30 minutes before happy hour ended. Very good vibes inside and the staff was super nice!! They were also quick. We went on a Monday night at 5:30ish. Drinks: I personally had a Coca Cola and it was so crispy and delish! My friend said their margarita is her fave in the city. Apparently the horchata with rum was heavy on the rum but that was not a bad thing. Beer was good too!Food: Sweet pepper wings- I love wings but I didn't love these! The flavor was just not meshing with what I like. Also, I didn't love the texture of them. Dumplings- incredible! Like a flavor explosion in your mouth. So many different things you wouldn't think go together.. but they do!Miso ramen- I tasted one of the oyster mushrooms in this and wow it was good. My friend really liked it but said she might try something diff next time. Original ramen- deeeeeeelish! So spicy because he made it that way by getting level 3!!Japanese curry ramen- my friend really enjoyed thisSlap ya kimchi ramen- I personally didn't enjoy this. I didn't like how the chicken was cooked, it's hard to split up without a fork and knife so you just have full on chicken tenderloins. I didn't love the flavor but that could just be me! The poached egg was too runny almost. I only had a couple bites but my fiance enjoyed it and will likely eat the leftovers tomorrow. Overall, 3/5 this time around, but when I get my usual and don't try something diff, it's. 4.5/5.

This review is based on take out order. I called a little after 11am when they open, ordered 4 ramen, got in my car and drove over. By the time I got there (maybe 10 minutes), the order was ready for me at the counter. Very friendly greeting when I walked in. We ordered 2 Original Tori Ramen (one with extra pork belly and add fried tofu) and 2 Miso Ramen.The pork belly is amazing! Great flavor and seared slightly crispy like thick cut bacon but better. Nice flavor to the broth - not too oily and lots of body. My friends liked the Miso ramen but were a little confused by the egg being served whole still on the shell. They thought it'd be peeled and cut in half like the egg in the Tori ramen. Either way, would definitely come back. Great experience.

Still returning here years later because their happy hour can't be beat: lychee martini and kale mushroom salad and my day is made! Vibe is always chill at the bar: come as you are and stay as long as you like

I ordered the Tori Ramen for delivery through Uber Eats, and it arrived perfectly packaged and piping hot, with the broth thoughtfully kept separate.I only wish I had the chance to dine in because this ramen was fantastic. The noodles were cooked al dente, giving them the perfect bite, while the broth was rich and deeply flavorful. The roasted pork was tender, soft, and melted in my mouth--truly worth trying.Tori Ramen - $25.35Add-ons: Corn ($0.75), Roast Pork ($3.00)

Incredibly solid ramen (4) with a friendly, cozy ambiance (5). Ordered takeout on one of my first nights in the neighborhood and it absolutely hit the spot. We got the miso mushroom ramen and the chicken menamen ramen. The portions were generous with lots of toppings (I thought it was funny that the eggs were left in the shells for transport). Both were tasty but the confit mushrooms on the miso ramen blew me away. I could house a full plate of them on their own. Union will definitely go into the neighborhood rotation, for take out and dine in.

If you can appreciate a savory broth, extra season, tender meats, and a good noodle to slurp. This is your hot spot okay, and I mean that cause I burnt my mouth trying to get it in. The feel in this place is calming and bright, the service was nothing less than expected. They were attentive and if you were into the culture and backgrounds of it they were ready to share.First off I don't like breast because it's more along the tough part of the body I can't appreciate. But my waiter convinced me it was a bop. So I tried and was not disappointed, I thought I was eating a well cooked thigh that thing was so tender. I can't even phantom how that happened but it did. When it comes to noodles that can be a tricky thing because either they're right or a second away from either hard or mushy. And this place has the technique down pat. This is an all year round place to kick back and relax, get some work done, or get chatty with the girls over their amazing drink selection that comes with an interesting mixologist. She was definitely creating purple history, might I add that was the star of the show.

I heard great things about Union before going, and they did not disappoint. I've been three times now and they have blow it out of the water on all occasions.My favorite dishes so far are the crawfish and shrimp lumpia and the watermelon and pork belly. The shishito peppers are super yummy too! I never had Musubi before. I wasn't in love but it was good. The Ramen was excellent. And huge portions. I don't think I could eat much other than that if I was by myself.Do not sleep on the spot. And do not skip the small plates.

We were seated quickly and give ice cold water. And the AC was on which was great considering it was 90 degrees out! We ordered the Beggar's Purse dumplings and Original Tori Ramen the dumplings were surprisingly delicious with the blueberries not giving a sweet taste but more of a tart taste that complemented the cream cheese inside the dumplings. The Original Tori Ramen was also a very well made chicken broth ramen with home made noodles that were perfectly bouncy like ramen should be: the pork was also tender and well marinated. The egg in the ramen could have been more salted but overall it was a delicious bowl of ramen!
