Kfunky: If Flounders wasn't my fave neighnorhood spot, it would be Pequods. Pizza is fantastic! Had my wedding rehearsal dinner here. . .
Aaron M.: Great pizza. If its too busy for you on the weekends, take it to go and eat it two doors down at Flounders. They're cool with it and have $4 lagunitas ipa on Friday.
Lindsey E.: Long wait? Put your name in, preorder your pizza, and head nextdoor to Flounders for drinks while you wait!
O. K.: The beef Carpaccio and the pastas are always a delight, and everything else is absolutely delicious. This is one of my favorite restaurants in Chicago.
Stephen Lawrence: Get the fried calamari, frutti de mare and of course the tiramisu!!!!
Time Out Chicago: The toughest part of Mom's brunch here will be choosing between the smoked salmon omelette, the eggs Benedict and the fried eggs with spicy pesto.

Sushi Restaurant · Noble Square · 42 tips and reviews
C Rey: Sea Monster, Little Monster, and Salmon Lava were all very good. Also tried Lover's Roll and Hamachi Carpaccio but wouldn't order again. BYOB and outdoor space!
Time Out Chicago: Try the Triple S from our 100 Best list: This maki, made of sweet potatoes, salmon and the mysteriously-named “spicy dynamite sauce” is everything that is wrong with sushi. And it tastes so right.
Melissa Bradford: Sea Monster is A-Mazing!

Marc Cervantes: Love the private bench at the sushi bar
Saint: This was my first "Fancy" Ramen experience. Don't think a bowl is worth $15, but tasty nonetheless. Definitely try the Scallop Cake and for all my whiskey fans, the Nikka Nori Old Fashioned is a must!
Raj P: stick with the special nigiri - best in the city
