Best sushi in Chicago. Amazing bites of fresh fish in inventive preparations. I love this place. Basically order every roll on the menu, both pearl apps, and try the specials!
Let's just say, I'm Asian and I know my good sushi. The Midwest blows in the majority of their sushi restaurants but this place is rules!! Don't tell anybody about this place.
Best Sushi experience I have ever had, Jiro would be proud
Hiroshima style was our favorite. Great drinks as well. Food comes out and it laid down on a center table “hot plate” of sorts. Great place for dates
The four-course tasting experience was amazing.
Hiroshima style okonomiyaki is my favorite, everything is incredible though. One of my favorite places to bring guests
Great for working lunches
Excelent service. Happy our with super good deals every day 12 - 3
This best , i have to come here every time i come to chicago
My fave roll in the city: pot river. Cilantro? Yes
Oh yeah and its BYOB just so you know.
Been here at least ten times, and the food is consistently good. Start with the robata: 'chicken satay' (with rice pearls), 'beef short rib', and 'shishito'. Finish with 'maguro' and 'hamachi' nigiri.
A great group/date spot for a dressy casual hip for the Japanese cuisine. The sushi/sashimi is beyond excellent. Make sure you get yellowtail, because it will literally melt in your mouth.
Raw- albacore tuna- delicious
Amazing meal- sashimi, sushi rolls, skewers, chilled ramen. Ebi tempura was absolutely delicious
During the week the lunch specials are an amazing deal. You get a ton of food for the price, no need to order any appetizers, you'll have plenty to eat for around $10.
The cheesecakes here are great. Matcha green tea latte cheesecake is AMAZING!
Best tofu I have had
Check the washroom. No more worries about those garlic/scallion/onion breath, they have tequila like mouthwash just for you. How thoughtful
Everything about this place is delicious. Minus the wait time and of ability to meet a reservation on-time.
Really wonderful ramen!! Never disappointed. Good rolls to be had as well. Truly a hidden neighborhood gem.
Try the spicy tuna tartare tower with house-fried tortilla chips and sweet sauce to start — the hot stone bibimbap entree ($15.95) pops with color and flavor in any iteration. Read more.
Salmon tartar
Try: gilded wagyu tartare gunkan maki topped with caviar and wasabi and the lightly battered fried squid with jalapeño rings. Say no to the salt-grilled saba.
Try the chef’s selection steak from our 100 Best list: Go for the chef’s selection, they’re beautifully marbled, expertly grilled over Japanese binchotan charcoal, and the best value in the house.
Try the largest Sake list in the Midwest.
Great sushi, udon, teriyaki beef, and all meals come with soup, salad, and a veggie appetizer and orange slices finish.
High quality Japanese restaurant and sushi bar with traditional decor and seating. Read more.
Ask for the carb (rice) free salmon skin hand roll. The most ... Amazing ... Thing ... ever!!
Best miso soup ever! Strong flavor + edamame + foam on top
Pink Lady is where it's at! Amazing!
cubs sports roll is my fav!!! Read more.
The Dynamite is dynamite! Don't miss it.

Try the dynamite, it's pretty delicious.
A great informal alternative to upstairs. The chicken karaage and the spaghetti were standouts.
If you ask, they split the ramen into two little bowls for you to share!
The Sake and Whiskey Flights are great.
easily the best oyster shooter i've had in chicago. highly recommended. great value as well, 2 shots with a total of 4 oysters for only $10
Katsu curry - amazing!!!
Absolutely empty at lunchtime, so if you want sushi without a wait, go then! They also have okonomiyaki (off menu?) We split it with 4 people.
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
