Ichiddo Ramen, a Japanese restaurant, and Matcha En, a Japanese dessert and drink shop, are planning to open later this year at 204 S. Washington St. in downtown Naperville. From the plans for a national fast food chain’s local debut to a multilevel entertainment complex — complete with dancing — Naperville’s business environment is bustling with the prospect of newcomers.
Planning commissioners will consider a handful of requested variances the company needs to bring its plan to fruition. They include a pair of deviations from city code — one involving the bypass lane requirements and the other for signage — and a land use modification. City staff have recommended that planning commissioners approve all but of the requests other than the sign deviation.
Inspired by global Latin music, food, drink and dance, according to CEO Edwin Rios, the complex will be have three separate spaces: a casual Spanish cafe on the ground level; a second-floor dancehall and cocktail lounge; and a third level for events. In the same space, Matcha En — a Japanese dessert and drink shop — is expected to open sometime this year, Jeffries said. Matcha En currently has a location in Chicago. Its menu ranges from bubble tea to mochi.
