He is the best!
Been coming here for years and I have never been disappointed.
The omakase is hands down the best in Chicago. I've heard various conversations of the guests who like to flex where they've been around the world to him...he smiles and nods. He's got his fish guy in Japan. He knows his product is 🔥. Such a treat to have a seat at the table. Make a resv if you can cause it's definitely worth it.

This is the only omakase place I've been to in Chicago but I've been to a lot of similarly high end ones in SF where I live.
I honestly liked all the 300 dollar range ones I've been to in SF more than Kyoten, not even factoring in price. There were some great pieces here, but overall I did not like the nigiri as much as I'd hoped, especially considering it cost $500.
On the other hand, the dessert dishes were actually leagues above the other omakase places I've been...read full review

Kyōten offers an exceptional sushi experience with high-quality, unique ingredients and expertly prepared dishes. The restaurant's relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere and Japanese-style minimalist design create a magical ambiance. Standout dishes include the exquisite monk fish liver with ginger sauce and the rare puffer fish testicles. The sushi rice is exceptional, making every piece extraordinary. The chef, who is deeply connected to Tokyo's fish markets and sources only wild-caught fish, creates a seasonal menu based on the market’s best daily offerings. The menu features many courses of the freshest fish, some from Japan, and is carefully crafted to highlight the natural flavors. The restaurant offers only a single seating per night, with a base price of $490 on weekends, which includes a carefully curated, multi-course Omakase. The chef’s passion and skill are evident in every bite, from the delicate slices of fish to the beautifully shaped rice. Although some dishes like monkfish liver may not appeal to everyone, the overall experience is memorable and worth the price. The attention to detail, the artistry of the chef, and the high-quality ingredients combine to create an unforgettable dining experience.
