The food is prepared on site after you order it, this is no gas station sushi. This is top notch fresh and delicious. We had the Chicago Dragon roll (among other) which was just, wow, mouthwatering.Free refills on our normal drinks, and since it is at the end of the terminal there isn’t much outside traffic noise.Cushy Booths or bar seats available.Variety of mixed drinks and beers.We were here at around 3, and there was plenty of seating.Parking: You kinda have to be thru security in order to get here…Wheelchair accessibility: It seems like there could be an arrangement made for anyone in a wheel chair but I didn’t spot anything out of the norm. Multiple low tables that are loose enough to setup for a wheelchair.

Save your money. Got a breakfast burrito and for $18 I would expect it to be made from fresh ingredients. Unfortunately, it’s not. Taco Bell has a better breakfast. Everything was unseasoned, the potatoes were somehow both undercooked and overcooked and came out Luke warm, as if they had been in hot holding for hours or possibly from the day before (I ordered at 6am btw). The burrito was hot, but had no seasoning, and the salsa was too bland to help. The server was nice, but the guy next to me had issues as no one told him he couldn’t order sushi for breakfast.

The food is decent but definitely overpriced, but expected at an airport. What I don't like is the abysmally rude service. Next time, I'm going to video the experience.

Great discovery! We had a short time to wait for our flight and this was a delighted place to wait and enjoy a great glass of wine and eat from the menu that offer a great variety choice. They were fast and accommodated our schedule, it was tasty and delicious.

My partner and I shared 2 orders of the Spicy Tuna and one of the California Roll. Both were delicious but the tuna was definitely our favorite. (It comes with eight pieces but we were so hungry we forgot to take a picture first, thus the six pieces you see in the photo)As others have noted, it's a little expensive, but considering this is an airport, the service was very quick, and the sushi was delicious, I think it makes sense and is really worth it. This corner of the airport is relatively quiet as well. Over all, a great experience!

Stopped by here for a quick lunch before my flight, drawn in by the amazing view of the airplane runway from the location - a definite plus! However, the sushi bowl was a letdown. While the ingredients were fresh, the taste didn't meet the usual standards I expect from sushi. It lacked the authentic flavors I anticipated. Nevertheless, if you're seeking a meal with a view, this place might be worth it. Just consider exploring other options on the menu.
I am in the Chicago airport, which has a pathetic selection of restaurants and in terminal 2, particularly slim pickings. Nevertheless when the server is amazing it helps. Wicker Park charges a corporate expense account amount for mediocre fare. Today decided to have a miso soup (merely $8 for something similar to the complimentary bread on an Italian restaurant table) and a tuna poke bowl. Nothing extraordinary here with 1/2c of poke salmon, a few pieces of egg, avocado, sushi ginger, lettuce and sushi rice for $23. Perhaps that is why it's quiet over here (good) and I could get a seat easily (also good). Fine in a pinch, especially when The Man is helping out.

There is an employee here that is so ridiculously rude. He asked me if I wanted anything after seeing me sit here for an hour and after I said no because my flight was about to board he said this is for customers...as if you didn't see me sit here for an hour??? To add, the manager watched it happen and was glaring at me as though he also affirmed the foolishness. Don't eat here if you like good service. They also leave the shrimp tempura out for hours before serving it.

Service was good, she was attentive, friendly, quick, and got the orders right. Unfortunately I can’t say the same for the food, ordered an unagi rice-bowl dish with undercooked sushi rice! (I eat rice EVERY DAY since I was little, and cook rice since I was a teenager.) It was a big disappointment for a $23 donburi! Ended up not eating most of the rice, although I tried since I was very hungry. I hope the owner see this review and fix it. I want to try again when I’m flying back thru O’Hare airport, give them a second chance, and update this review accordingly.

Sushi was okay. Customer service needs help. The place mat had soy sauce that got on me and my clothes. They do not care to clean up. Oysters tasted really bad. Just a waste of money.
