One of the best sushi places I've been to. The experience is sitting at the bar, ordering Mike's Special and feeding Mike Miller Lites all night. It's not cheap but worth it. Ask for the fish n chips!

Well... EVERYTHING IS AMAZING! Mike is an amazing culinary treasure as well as an amazing host even behind the bar. You're missing out if you haven't been here. YOU MUST GO, I INSIST!

The sushi chefs are personable, they drink beer that you bring them, and every single thing on the menu can be customized to your exact desire. In short, it's absolutely perfect. Read more

Everything is good here. Start with the fish and chips and edamame. You won’t be sorry. Then, tell them what you like or don’t like and then just trust. You will be thrilled.

This has GOT to be the best sushi in the city. Tell Sushi Mike what you like (or don't like) and he'll give you sushi you've never had before and won't get anywhere else. BYOB and always super fresh

Sushi Mike is a rock star and drinks like one! BYOB and be prepared to share some with Sushi Mike. Sushi is one of the best in the city.

Omakase sushi-let sushi mike decide for you, it's worth the wait, when it's busy, byob.he likes miller lite, bring him a 6 pack

My favorite sushi in Chicago for years. Skip the menu, order a Mike's special or four. Fish & chips is always a good starter. Bring a libation donation for the chef!

Awesome sushi-you tell them what you like and they make custom rolls...delish

The "Mike's Special" are improvised after you tell the chef what you like. Definitely sit at the bar and get some (you may need a reservation.) Anything with fresh wasabi sauce is excellent!
Lily KimJanuary 7, 2013
Ehhh. Wasn't the greatest. I wanted some soft shell crab peaking out of this roll. Also, they should have split it up. The shape of it is a bit daunting...
Jennifer MulvihillAugust 14, 2013
Sit at the sushi bar and don't order off of the menu. You won't be disappointed!

Sushi Mike was phenomenal! If you go get the sushi Mike special
Mimi ChanelApril 28, 2013
The menu is not great for selecting roll so come knowledgeable they will make for you. Appetizers very small. Very Pricey here!

Best sushi in town! And no soy sauce
Lily KimJanuary 6, 2013
Mochi green tea & red bean yummm
Riley YorkFebruary 5, 2013
Yuck. This is a place for people that don't have the brains to pick their own food. Chef creates maki based on your choices but you don't always end up with what you want. Not good !
Peter HunnerNovember 27, 2011
Best sushi in Chicago. Just tell Mike what you like and let him do his thing.

Food was good. Service definitely let something to be desired. Atmosphere and music didn't match.
Jessica DuBoisJune 25, 2017
Tell him what you like then let him do his thing.
Kerry NevelJuly 16, 2013
Not impressed. No, Chef Mike did not make me something, but there were two other chefs; that should make up fore the one Chef Mike, right? Overall, it's no big deal. I'll be going back to Agame.
Trish NelsonSeptember 13, 2011
It's BYOB so bring it!!! Sushi Mike will make your favorite!
Daisy De La CruzOctober 25, 2010

Don't bother with the menu. Fish and Chips for appitizer, and then Chief's Specials. And NO FUCKING SOY SAUCE. Mike will throw your bitch ass out!
Angel YsaguirreMay 29, 2010
For sushi traditionalist, this is not the place to eat. The sushi chef, Mike, who customers think is a god, makes syrupy sweet sauces for all of the rolls. They're disgusting. The nigiri is better.
Dan PliceOctober 2, 2010
No gluten free soy sauce here, so bring your own tamari
