I am surprised by some of the reviews on here but I have eaten here a handful of times only but have been very happy every time. Classic older decor and comfortable habachi tables. We love the egg sauce and usually get the shogun and its always more food that I can eat. We love the shrimp appetizers too and... More

Ron of Japan in Northbrook has been a family favorite for years. We have always celebrated all sorts of occasions here. Our most recent visit was last weekend for my birthday. We made reservations for 7:15pm and when we arrived at 7:00pm we were seated right away. Walking through to our table we couldn’t help but notice how packed the... More

I didn't like sitting with people I didn't know. I loved the food. The egg on the shrimp is fantastic. I always have too much food when I go but it was worth every penny and got a goody bag to go.

Japanese steak houses used to be great for entertainment and decent food. Even the chef's were authentic. Among the best, Ron of Japan was a standout.

The atmosphere is great if you want to spend eating dinners with strangers.

Came here for my birthday, but because I did not sign up for the birthday club until the day of, I did not get my free birthday dinner. I can understand they want their returning customers to get the free birthday dinner, but it would have been a nice gesture to give me a free dinner since I brought out... More

The egg sauce and meat-heavy fried rice may not appeal to everyone (per other reviews), but we loved it! Such a charming, unusual interior, great drinks ("super Mai Tai"), and the food was awesome. Not traditional Japanese, not super healthy, but yummy!

Ron of Japan was simply a delight. We go there all of the time, and the wait staff is always friendly the moment we walk in the door. The food was quite tasty, and the chef is entertaining while making it. The only downside can be that if you travel with a small party, you will most likely be sitting... More
