Wonderful Pad Thai! Combine it with a Sapporo Abba you are all set!
*awesome sunny crunchy maki. Huge rolls!
Never go wrong with the sweet potato tempura maki!
They do some amazing wines (that aren't even listed - asked them)! Really good food and worth a visit : )
Awesome food friendly service the tempura was amazing the shrimp dumpling where out of this world and the prices very reasonable but the softcrabshell roll was unbelievable.
The chef’s special rolls were awesome.
So many options for the vegetarian, vegan, plantbased eater. So good - sticky/crispy rice concoction with tangy sauce & veggies. And the cured tomato sushi is the best creation!
10-course omakase: doesn’t look like much, but it was very tasty and very worth it
Japanese Breakfast (Fluffy, wobbly, panda-monium pancakes with matcha butter and Okinawan black sugar syrup)
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.
Friendliest bartenders, board games, always a good deal, and always something interesting happening!
Say hi to Lou! Best bartender in Chicago!
Get a shot of Malort from Dougie, you'll mostly not regret it.
Fantastic produce and beautiful fish at really affordable prices. Awesome cafe and great home-goods section in the back. Parking can be a little rough in the awkwardly shaped lot.
Hidden gem restaurant at the corner of the supermarket. Excellent korean food for less than 10$!
Kimchi, soups, dumplings, awesome cheap lunch spot
Anything on skewers - yes! The dipping noodles SO GOOD, naked roll also fabulous too!
The cheesecakes here are great. Matcha green tea latte cheesecake is AMAZING!
Best tofu I have had
The men in black roll will knock your socks off. The sweet potato is really good too. A little pricey but worth the splurge. Service can be off at times.

amazing food!!
Best sushi in the city without the downtown hassle. G-O!!!!
Amazing food, amazing shows. Staff is very cool, despite the stress of constant live music transient crowds. One could be a regular here.
The Beat Kitchen hosts The Chicago Underground Comedy showcase each Tuesday with some of the city’s most talented and promising comedians. The showcase is every Tuesday at 9:30pm; tickets are $5.
go to Beat Kitchen and see Lucky Boys Confusion!!
Lunch special - maki bento box is such a deal and the salmon and sweet potato rolls that come with are great !
The Red Nori is fab! As is the veggie Mo Yasai. Def going back.
Crunchy Spicy Calamari Roll, it's not on the menu but it is far and above the best roll I've ever had in my life (and I've been to Japan and every other sushi place in Chicago!). Best Spicy Tuna too!
One of the best sushi restaurants I have been to in Chicago. Unique maki rolls, amazing scallop cake & the seared tuna appetizer was delicious.
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!
stick with the special nigiri - best in the city
I have yet to find a better sushi place in Chicago. The rolls are reasonably priced and delicious. If you're feeling up for it, the Miami roll is my favorite. The place is BYOB so bring a bottle!
Yummy kiss of fire and lion king roll
Jerk wings are really really good.
If you want the best jerk chicken in Chicago, you found the spot!
Try the punch with Remy Vsop
As good as the sushi is here, chef Mark Hellyar’s prepared plates, including rich and bold sukiyaki, terrific robata-grill snacks and the signature Momotaro tartare are what will blow your mind. Read more.
Raw- albacore tuna- delicious
Amazing meal- sashimi, sushi rolls, skewers, chilled ramen. Ebi tempura was absolutely delicious
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
