“I called ahead on a Tuesday for their dinner reservations, we were told they weren't busy that night so we went ahead and made the one hour drive just for their sushi and their great reviews. We had the best experience and their sushi was truly top notch. We basically ordered everything on the menu from sushi, caviar to desserts and drinks. they did not disappoint, customer service was superb. The owner even came outside to attend us, he showed up with his own bottle of sake. I truly appreciate the great experience we had at this beautiful and clean restaurant. I have nothing bad to say, the food was high quality and extremely delicious. I definitely recommend this location, even if you have kids which I did. We left so happy and satisfied, loved it.“

“We went here for our anniversary this year! This omakase is unique compared to other ones we’ve done. There’s a mixture of hot dishes, sashimi, nigiri, and custards. All were really delicious and meticulously presented and well thought out. We also did the sake pairing which was fun and really good. On top of all that the service was phenomenal and Chef Shoji was so kind and wonderful and it was amazing to watch him work. Highly recommend!“

“First place I ate dinner at when home shopping in the neighborhood. Been a regular for years now. Sushi is great, especially for the price. The owner is super nice. Really kind to my family and would ask about how my kids are doing when i did takeout during Covid. Will keep coming back.“

“The Sushi was absolutely delicious .“

“My favorite place for sushi. A hidden gem of the neighborhood. Nice and hard working people. Food is very good. Highly recommended!“

“So much to love. Many tasty options and it's BYOB!“

“Really enjoyed this place. Ramen seemed priced fine for the amount you get, very flavorful. Nigiri was very fresh, buttery soft. It was more expensive but well worth it. Some of the specialty sushi dishes would be more doable with a group of people so can try a little of everything for a more reasonable price. Definitely would come again.“

“Amazing freshest sushi , best in the town , great service , and nice ambiance.“

“Very nice place . Owners are really good people , very warm and friendly . A large selection of drinks and great hang out place . Love it ! Highly recommend!!“

“We were in the area and happened to stop by here completely by chance. The place is okay. Unlike other spots where you already have “pre-assembled” ingredients for a poke bowl and just choose which one you want (so-called signature bowls), here you have to build it yourself. The poke was fine. The ingredients are fresh, and since I picked what I like, of course I enjoyed it. The place feels cozy and interesting, with lots of plants inside. My only complaint is that the low white tables are very close together, so you literally can’t move. They need to be spaced out a bit.“

“California man says Yes, and highly recommend here“

“Some of the best sushi my girlfriend and I have had in Chicago. Never had a bad meal!“

“Hiro Izakaya is an absolute gem. The ambiance is on point—stylish, welcoming, and the perfect vibe whether you're out for a chill night or a full dining experience. The food? Outstanding. Everything came out hot, fresh, and beautifully prepared, with flavors that clearly show care and quality. The drinks were strong (just the way they should be), well-crafted, and balanced perfectly. What really sealed the deal was the service—impeccable from start to finish. Attentive, professional, and genuinely warm without being overbearing. If you're looking for great food, a lively atmosphere, and top-tier service, Hiro Izakaya delivers on all fronts. Can't wait to return. 🍣🔥🍸“

“Every time I leave this place I look forward to coming back.“

“We didn't realize our show at the Ramova a block away was cancelled until we got there.... So we had dinner at Kawa. Everything was delicious and very fairly priced, and I've been daydreaming about the Avocado Poppers ever since! I wish this place wasn't over an hour away from me.“

“I ordered Morikawa Bento via delivery app & what an incredible experience!

The Makunouchi (Unagi) is easily among the most outstanding I've ever eaten, maybe even the best. Such a delightful presentation and true to the traditional bento & Ekiben forms, where you discover hidden items as you eat & each side dish feels fresher & more delicious than the last. Feels like a very generously-portioned (in case you're doubting the price tag) home cooked meal prepared and packed by someone with a rare amount of intention & care for not just how the food will taste, but how well it will travel. You can feel the that the chef wants your meal to be a joyful experience filled with little surprises. Truly a new favorite meal of mine in the city that I plan to order again and again.“
