Fried Chicken (Karaage) from Oozu Ramen on Feb. 29.

Champaign-Urbana has a plentiful amount of delicious Asian food, but one that sticks out among the rest is Oozu Ramen Bar.

The restaurant’s mouthwatering combination of perfectly flavored broth, springy noodles and fresh vegetables makes it the winner of this year’s Best Asian Fusion.

Oozu Ramen Bar is located at 601 S. Sixth St., Suite 102, and its delicious food, pleasurable atmosphere and excellent service are what sets it apart from the rest of C-U’s Asian fusion options. Its flavorful ramen and large portions leave customers feeling full and satisfied.

There are numerous options on the menu, so you’re guaranteed to find something that satisfies your taste buds. If you like something a little spicier, try the spicy miso or spicy chicken ramen. If you like something a little more simple, you can always get the tonkotsu classic — either way, you won’t be disappointed.

The warm and friendly environment makes Oozu Ramen Bar the perfect place to enjoy a dinner with friends, a date or even a meal alone. It doesn’t matter what time of day you come — you will always be greeted with a welcoming atmosphere and delicious food.
