This place has the best ramen in the area.I always go to ramen places in Chicago, but haven't found anything better closer to where I live in Joliet/Plainfield area. I get the spicy miso garlic. Please note that when they say spicy, they mean it. I love spicy, but in the future I'd ask for less spice. I also ordered a bubble tea and that was yummy as well. read more

I came here with my husband between running errands and 45 Degree Tea is a great place for fast casual when you're in a pinch but craving a warm bowl of ramen. I was not a huge fan of their drinks (I tried two) but so far, their ramen was not bad. I ordered the spicy garlic miso ramen, my husband ordered the black garlic ramen, and we shared the veggie egg roles. The ramen noodles were cooked to order and served in disposable soup bowls. There were self-serve chopsticks/cutlery by a station near the pick-up counter. For under $15 a bowl of ramen, it's a great value. There were plenty of noodles and toppings, and the pork was nothing to write home about but it got the job done. I personally was not a fan of two drinks that I tried, and for that, 3 stars. Perhaps I'm used to my milk tea spots in the city. I ordered their "signature fruit tea" with 50% sugar and it was a little too saturated for my taste. What I mean by that is it tasted like the fruit rinds were soaking in the tea for too long and the citrus bordered on bitter, so they added a pump of guava or passionfruit syrup to cover it up. The result was a pungent bitter-citrus artificial floral combination that was hard to drink. The next day, I got classic milk tea for redemption but it didn't happen. I think their food menu items outshine their drinks, but I'm glad this place is offers what they do, and is so easily accessible in the large plaza on Showplace Dr. TL;DR Their food menu items are great for a quick fast-casual meal. Their ramen bowls are great value but are not the same as restaurant that only serves ramen. They have a wide selection of drinks and styles (milk teas, fruit teas, pure teas, yakult, cheese foam, etc.) and [[HIGHLIGHT]]this is a great spot if you're craving Asian snacks, want a quick bite, or need a hang out spot before/after a movie.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I was surprised to find such an interesting spot in Naperville with a full menu of tea options that includes everything from grass jelly to cheese foam to yakult to egg pudding. This will save me a trip to Chinatown as I can enjoy the more interesting options, but with a much easier time parking. In addition to all the great drink options, I was pleasantly surprised to see a huge menu of different food items such as chicken wings, fried pork chop, tako yaki, ramen, curry, hibachi, unagi, and more! [[HIGHLIGHT]]This really makes this a nice one stop shop with a good amount of seating to enjoy a conversation and your food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, worth a stop if you're looking to enjoy a large variety of drinks and a vast menu of different Asian food options all in one spot and at reasonable prices. read more

As it starts getting chillier, join me in grabbing a bowl of delicious tonkatsu udon from 45 Degree Tea When 45 Degree Tea first opened in Naperville I was not the biggest fan of their ramen and takoyaki but I'm so glad I gave them another shot! The tonkatsu pork bone broth was flavorful and not watery, the chashu pork and other toppings were all cooked well - I would genuinely order this again! read more

My husband and I went to 45 Degree Tea with a friend on a visit to the Naperville Crossings shopping center. We decided to stop at 45 Degree Tea before visiting the Chessfest in the shopping center.

45 Degree Tea is a tale of two stories in one place. Located in a plaza in South Naperville by the Showplace Theater, you'll be happy if you want a quick bite and some boba drinks. The variety of drink options from milk teas, fruit teas, yakult, coconut milk, and all sorts of options to customize your drink. Boba lovers will be happy. On the other hand, temper your expectations with the ramen. Whether you dine in or take out, your food will be served in to go containers. The broth in all the ramens don't have much depth. It'll do in a pinch, but there are better places for ramen literally down the road. There are plenty of toppings in any of the ramen bowls, and the noodles are okay, but for the money and better quality, go elsewhere. read more

The curry rice with pork was a good deal. they serve the sauce on the side which allows the meat to stay crispy. I just wish the curry had more vegetables. The shao mai dumplings were cooked perfectly too. read more

I have been coming here every time I am in the area. This place makes amazing food, amazing drinks, and has amazing staff. This trip I only got the Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Cheese Foam. I kid you not, from the moment I walked up to the store, to the moment I got into my car, it only took three total minutes. The outside picture I took was at 3:43, and I walked out and into the car at 3:46. My drink is amazing. As always, it's beautiful looking, and is just super tasty. The staff was sooooo kind. I 100% recommend this location every time someone asks where to get good food/boba. I love you 45Degree read more

The food was good, the portion sizes are small. They call your name and you have to pick up your order and carry it to your table. If you don't mind doing that then you will love it here. The egg rolls were average, they were too temperature hot that they were not enjoyable to eat. Won't order them again for dine in. I don't think I will go out of my way to eat here... but if I am in the area I may consider dining here again. The bathrooms don't have changing tables so I would not consider this place infant friendly. The restaurant was decorated very nice, it was clean, and the employees were very friendly! I recommend giving it a try! read more

After choosing here it would have been cool to bring a thermometer and take the temperature but I forgot to bring it. 45 Degree Tea is a cool place figuratively and literally. If you're into Asian tea you'll find some good stuff. Has a good menu also so try things like ramen. The prices are kind of high so that's the bad thing. Holy shit you can get a lot of tea from here. It has all kinds. There's cold and hot. A favorite is the Citrus Lime Fruit Tea, which is what we got. It's $5 for a medium. This is Jasmine green tea with fresh lime spices. As for the food it was limited for us to choose from. The pho is made with meat except one thing. It has a vegan friendly entree. The Vegetarian Ramen is in a vegetarian broth, not beef or chicken like the rest of these. It's $11 for a bowl. This has broccoli, cabbage, eggs, kale noodles, lotus root, mushrooms, naruto, pickled mustard greens, shallots, spinach, and sweet corn, whew. A whole lot. Leave out eggs to make it vegan. It has some good spice in it. This was quite a warm and full meal. Big ass bowls. It unfortunately is expensive for the pho which seems to be the main thing to eat here. They thankfully fill the bowl up with lots of stuff so that helps make up for this. read more

It is pretty pricy for the amount you get, but it isn't too bad for the location it is at. Tried the new yaki udon chasu bowl and it is stir fry filled with chasu, broccoli, and cabbage. Got the tako yaki balls and there was a good amount of octopus with mayo and lots of Bonito flakes on top. Husband had the spicy garlic miso ramen and he said it wasn't bad. He was still hungry and ate the rest of my udon. We also got the taro milk tea, which they are a popular spot for the drinks. read more

My sister brought me to 45° Tea for a Festa 2024 event. We stayed for lunch after shopping the vendors at the Festa. I had a taro boba tea, which was excellent. Not too sweet and lots of tapioca pearls. To eat, I ordered the unagi (eel) rice bowl. Unfortunately I can't have seeds and the seaweed salad that topped the bowl had sesame seeds mixed in, so I had to leave that off. I've never had seaweed salad with sesame seeds already mixed in, so I was surprised. The bowl itself was a huge portion. The unagi was a pretty small portion compared to how much rice was left once the eel was gone. That was disappointing. However, the food was very tasty. If you like Asian food (rice & ramen bowls) and boba tea, I would give this place a try. read more

I had high expectations but left in want. Want of different food. The rice bowl was so oily, all you taste is oil. I could probably top off my cars oil with this. . Also they give you their ramen in plastic bowls with covers. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Probably cause they don't want you to eat it there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I probably would not recommend this place. Can't wait for more of an authentic ramen place to pop up around here, just not another one like this! read more

Best ramen I have had since Tokyo! I have been seeking black garlic tonkotsu ramen since eating at Yokohama Family Ramen (an unpretentious place in the Akihabara neighborhood of Tokyo with amazing black garlic tonkotsu broth). I've found some good tonkotsu ramen around here (Umai Aji-ya is nothing to sneer at), but was still questing for that black garlic umami depth of flavor. Then a friend told me about 45 Degree Tea, Ramen and Rice, in the old Wayback Burger space near the movie theater at 59 and 95th Street. I got there as quickly as I could to try their version. This is what I have been waiting for!!! So glad it's nearby too. Delectable roast pork, crisp bamboo shoots, crunchy green onion, and very thin squiggles of ramen noodles, all bathed in the mellow, creamy, garlicky broth. They have other dishes I'd like to try like an unagi bowl (eel) and chicken teriyaki but it would be hard to bypass the black garlic ramen!! They also make a variety of bubble teas; my standard, taro milk tea with tapioca, was tasty, not excessively sweet with chewy pearls of tapioca. Needless to say, I will be back soon! read more

I don't frequent Naperville Crossings so I was not aware that this amazing place was located here. My daughter recommended we go here since she's been here a few times with friends. The first time we went I only had an order of egg rolls and a cinnamon boba tea. My daughter had a chicken fried steak bento box. It came with salad, rice and a generous portion of chicken. My egg rolls were the best I've ever had. Great flavor, perfectly cooked... I don't even know how to describe how good they were. My daughter said her food was good too. My boba was fantastic. I couldn't wait to go back so we went there again today. I had the ramen special and it was fantastic. I picked the pork broth with chicken and pork belly, noodles, scallions, corn, egg and got it mildly spicy. Yum!! It was delicious!!! I highly recommend them for boba and for their meals. You order at the counter and they call your number to get your order. Food comes out pretty quickly and it's all so fresh. I am already anticipating going back to try the rice bowls. Prices are also decent. If you are in the area you need to check them out. I'm very impressed with their food. read more

My wife, son and I shared a Shoyu ramen, build my own ramen and potstickers. Wife also got boba milk tea. Food was solid, I really liked the pork broth. Shoyu ramen was ok, nothing spectacular. The chicken on the Shoyu ramen was ok but the tonkatsu (pork cutlet) that I ordered with the other ramen was great! Portions were great too. I end up ordering extra noodles at most other ramen places, but I was stuffed without anything extra. Boba tea was ok. I didn't think the food rose to the level of 5 stars but might've been a bit better than 4 stars overall, and I'd go back in a heartbeat. I might have to try some more items and perhaps that would change my rating. Service was good. Staff was accommodating and cordial. read more

I've come to this place once before but only for the boba. This time I had to try the Japanese curry with katsu pork and it was so good! The pork was super crispy and light and the curry was full of flavor! I paired it with the cheese peach with boba which was okay because the peach flavor wasn't peachy enough for me. I really like their cheese top though! The service there was also very kind and made it a very enjoyable experience :) I will be sure to come back! read more

Went here with the parents a month or so ago based off of some locals recommending it. It's hard to find decent ramen here in the suburbs. Damn. This place hits the SPOT. I've gone back a few times and it's never disappointed; personally the Hell Ramen at level 4 spicy is where it's at. Along with the regular bubble tea with the tapioca. So delicious. Add in their spicy chicken wings and you're through the heavenly gates. Service has always been decently quick for what it is and very polite. Clean area and abundance of parking in the strip mall that it is located in. I advise to try coming a tad earlier or later from the lunch/dinner rush as I think there may be a school or fitness center nearby. Lot of kids in this area. Will gladly be back. read more
