“Wonderful service and excellent rolls!! Overall great experience“

“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.“

“30 years I’ve been going to Sai Cafe. Quality has never changed. Always the best.“

“We came for restaurant week and while the food was very good, the restaurant week menu was not really a good deal I don’t think. If you’d like to check out this restaurant, you should do so, but don’t come in for restaurant week thinking you’ll get a good deal. We had to order some additional food on top of the menu as we were still hungry. The food is very high quality but portion sizes could be a bit larger at the price point they’re charging. As seen in the photo, we received a 6 piece nigiri but this is not enough food to really get full. Would recommend checking out, not sure if I’ll be back though.“

“Delicious food. Great variety of sushi, beautifully plated. Great service as well.“

“I love really good quality food, and this was one the best places in Chicago!!
We had shushi and ramen. The fish in shushi tasted like water (because of the freshness) and loved the broth of the ramen so much.

As appetizer we had shrimp tempura, were so light and amazing!!

Also there in house soya sauce, had so much depth. I was drinking the sauce, because it tasted so good. I wish they would tell the sauce!!“

“The dragon roll delicious also the Spicy tuna yum.. and I had the Lychee tini 🍸 it was also great my new spot for sushi“

“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.“

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

“California man says Yes, and highly recommend here“

“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.“

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

“Nice atmosphere, good sushi“

“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.“

“An outstanding dining experience. The food and cocktails were incredible, upscale but accessible and grounded in robust flavors. The ambience was gorgeous, beautifully lit with lush neons around the bar and periphery with delicious pockets of intimate lowlight at tables. Best of all was the team that bring it all to life. Eric and Alex took incredible care of us. They were so attentive, considerate, and warm, it truly made for a welcoming and fun-filled night. An absolute must for any birthday, date night, or any other excuse you need to eat out!“

“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.“

“Delicious food and fabulous service!“

“the best sushi in chicago 😍 everything super delicious and very good service, 🥰“
