“Lovely restaurant for parties of all sizes. We had 8 adults and 2 children.

Sushi is very good.

Spring roll was very good.

Shrimp,dishes were very good.

Service was very good.

Basically, everything was very good.

Not crowded for a Thursday dinner.

Menu had plenty of options.

Yep, no pictures. Someday I’ll remember. I don’t eat at restaurants just to review them; I eat at these restaurants because someone in my party made reservations.“

“握壽司好吃！綠茶香，不澀。味噌湯不死鹹。to go的章魚燒🐙跟唐揚雞味道好份量足。所有食物價格合宜。有很多日式小包箱，適合多人聚餐唷。“

“Sushi lover here. Ordered couple times 3 rolls lunch special and it was great. The quality of the rolls is top notch. Today I went to try the signature nigiri and Ari maki along with their house sake and it was just amazing.
Make sure to try the Zuke salmon nigiri, Yellowtail signature nigiri and the Big eye tuna nigiri as well. They are all wow😌“

“Always a dining experience for my tastebuds. The service, the food, the ambience. You couldn’t ask for more. The sushi rice is, hands down, the best we’ve ever had. Questions answered, recommendations given, new adventures with unknown cuisine. This is our go to for the authentic taste of Japan.“

“Best omakase menu in the suburbs.“

“the food is yummy / authentic japanese ! the service is great ,“

“豐富美味價格合宜，算是道地日本拉麵。服務很好，工作人員很友善！“

“The food and service are great!“

“Very nice, hardworking staff and delicious food! Love this place and highly recommend!! 😋👍“

“If you want authentic food an amazing experience then this is your go to. The owners are hardworking and they do everything themselves. When you come here, you will be greeted by the hostess/waitress with a smiling face. A sweet Japanese man will be making the sushi and a lovely woman in the kitchen preparing with love all of the hot dishes. It is places like this that I love to eat, quite the opposite of the corporate chain restaurants who give you minimal while charging the max. This place does the opposite. You get the full value out of your dollar and it is well spent. The freshness of the sushi and the flavor of the chicken yakitori are second to none, because love is an ingredient that is not often found in restaurants anymore. Please do yourself a favor and bring your family to a restaurant that you will feel wholesome while filling you up.“

“I love this place so much. The take out is quick, fresh, reasonably priced and SO delicious! My last visit, the chef was literally the server at the same time, I did a walk-in takeout order for Sashimi and it was ready fresh in 10 mins. Tasted incredible. Pro tip: Sometimes their hours aren't accurate on here, I've found them to be actually open a few times when internet said closed, so always worth a phone call attempt first!“

“Small resto with few bistro tables and chairs. They have different choices in their menus. My fave is the chicken nanban. Crispy breaded chicken strips soaked ij sweet and tangu vinegar-soy sauce and tiooed with tartar sauce or mayo and it is really yummy! It has rice and salad already. We also ordered Shaka Shaka fries and you can choose from their different flavors like cheese, corn, miso, happy happy and many more. They give you paper bag and you can mox the flavorings. Very addictive! Lastly we tried the Teriyaki omelet burger, seems like irdinary burger but they topped it with the freshly cooked japanese omelet. The server slice the omelet and add mayo and teriyaki sauce. Since it is huge and messy to eat, they give you pastic gloves. Teriyaki burger is tasty and not too sweet. Service is superb!“

“We've lived in this area for 20 years now, and this is hands down one of our favorite local establishments. The service is warm, yet efficient, and the food is outstanding. Highly recommend for an evening with a few friends or an intimate one on one dinner.

I wish nothing but the best for this restaurant and its owners. Solid A+.“

“Best sushi ever, great hospitality, I recommend the Salmon Sunset. I can never get sushi anywhere else, this place is a hidden gem!! 10/10“

“Spicy miso Ramen, so good“

“Everything was absolutely delicious! The grilled mackerel was the highlight of the meal—so juicy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. We also loved the gyoza, which were crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and full of flavor. The miso soup was fresh, comforting, and a perfect start to the meal. The Daikiri Salad was also excellent—fresh, light, and a great complement to the rest of the dishes.
Everything tasted fresh and was beautifully prepared. We will definitely be coming back to try more dishes from the menu. Highly recommend this place!“

“Always great entertainment and food!!!“

“Great sushi in the suburbs. Fish quality is amazing!
Ordered:
miso soup- good could have been more hot
Tuna crispy rice- good, had a sweet sauce drizzled on top and small but very good
Otoro sashimi
Otoro and hamachi hand roll- otoro was outstanding
Sunset roll- not my favorite but quality of fish was amazing and presentation with edible stars
Will be back!!

Good music- r&b, pop and hip hop“

“great food. bit of a wait but worth it. fresh crispy tempura with a sweet tendon sauce. the udon has a beautiful smokey broth with great noodles, add a bit of their onikasu for a bit of spice and extra flavor.“

“Hanakawa is my comfort food spot, no question. Their fried rice with the yum yum sauce is what I order every single time, honestly haven't branched out because why mess with perfection. Consistent every visit, great portions, and the yum yum sauce alone is worth the trip. If you haven't tried it you're missing out.“

“Great food. Excellent friendly service.“

“Hands down one of the best Tonkatsu Bentos around. The pork cutlet was crispy, golden, and incredibly juicy. Sankyu Sushi & Izakaya does an amazing job honoring traditional Japanese flavors while delivering consistent quality. A five-star experience every time.“

“More people absolutely need to pay Carlos a visit.

Immaculate tempura and generally have your order ready quick and fresh.

I got the Edomar Tempura plate and loved it.
I especially love how when you get the plate they include the grated daikon in your tentsuyu! The only place in the US I've seen even include it.

Absolutely try it out if you haven't yet. I highly recommend any combo that includes a shishito pepper with it!“

“Absolutely fantastic! I ordered the Kaiseki Bento with Salmon, and it was a feast! The grilled salmon was perfectly cooked—crispy skin with tender, flaky meat. The bento came with miso soup, fresh salad, delicious gyoza, tempura that was light and crispy, and a few California rolls that rounded out the meal beautifully. Great presentation and flavor. Sushi EN has definitely become my new go-to for Japanese lunch and dinner specials!“

“ROYCE’ Chocolate is absolutely incredible. This is some of the best and most delicious chocolate I’ve ever had. The texture is unbelievably smooth and creamy, and every bite melts in your mouth. The flavors are rich without being overpowering, and the quality really stands out. An amazing treat and also a perfect gift.“

“Love it!!!, the food and service was amazing. Would go for it again. 10/10!“

“I have been to Wu’s House in Merriville, IN and Orlando Park. This location is by far an overachiever. The pond, the bridge the decor inside I felt like I was on vacation. all employees were oh so inviting, but our server his name is Yoga. He put his heart and soul into our service and made our experience extraordinary. I have been having sushi for quite a few years now, but this sushi was the best I’ve ever had. I know that is a bold statement, but oh so true. Our meals were freshly made. The flavors were spot on. I wished I lived next-door so I could go every day. I live in Joliet, but I will be coming here as often as I can. It is well worth the One hour trip. I Pray for your success, you are an asset to the community.“

“Everything was excellent!!!“

“First time here. Will definitely be coming back many times! The Red Miso Ramen was the best I have had in a long time! Cannot wait to come back!“

“Food was absolutely delicious!! Highly recommend!!“

“Phenomenal in a true gem in the Hoffman Estates area. The crabcake is to die for. Some of the best sushi that I’ve eaten all around. Very reasonably priced super tentative staff. If you have the opportunity to eat here, take it.“

“First time ever trying this place out as I’m not currently living in the Chicago area and we don’t have them where I live, but I had heard great things about this place and I was not disappointed at all. It was delicious and a lot of food for the price! I wish they would build one in Texas.“

“We love this place and we will going to miss it“

“They make really good cooked to order fried rice. My Fiancé has also enjoyed sushi from this establishment. Top notch stuff.“

“If you want the very best sushi go to Taste of Tokyo! We can’t say enough about how nice, friendly, and creative the owners and their staff are! If they don’t have something on their sushi menu that you want, then just ask! And they will gladly make it! If you want to relax with comfortable seats, great background music, reasonable prices, then visit Taste of Tokyo! If you love to support small businesses in your community then visit Taste Of Tokyo! We are just so grateful for them and their Great Foods!“

“Great food and service enjoyed my meal will definitely come back“

“Party sushi Trays - Fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented — every bite was perfection.“

“Amazing food, made to order!! Delicious and fast please tip the servers well!! They deserve it“

“First time going here was amazing, staff was great and very respectful, and don’t even get me started on the ramen, everything about it was amazing from the taste to the look. But yeah honestly great place to grab ramen.“

“Enjoyed a simple but incredibly tasty lunch with the BlueFin tuna and crunchy rolls that were soooo good. Yum!!!!😊👍“

“The udon here was pretty good. I have not been to Japan to compare but I thought it was really good. I ordered the tonkotsu udon (normal). Then I ordered a side of their homemade chili crisp which was amazing and wish they would sell on their own. Then I also picked up some tempura green beans and tempura onion which both were good. Termpura batter was seasoned very well. They also have toppings and stuff to the right of the register some people may look over when they are getting their food paid for.“

“The food and service were both quite good“

“My wife and I totally enjoyed their food. We were a bit surprised to see that the AYCE went up to $28.99. We will go back.“

“One of the best places to eat on earth! Flavors are amazing. Salad dressing is the best. Spicy Garlic Shrimp - amazing! The house made Teriyaki is the best I ever had! Such a great place! Highly recommend. :)“

“The bacon with quail eggs is my favorite skewer! The quail egg adds a deep flavor but is balanced out with the bacon.

The chicken skewers are consistently good. I personally enjoy the chicken thigh skewers. Also, the sausage skewers are pretty consistent in flavor.

I have tried their takoyaki multiple times. I feel it’s a hit-or-miss. Sometimes they are fresh, other times, they are a bit stale. But I still order them.

The same goes for their chicken skin skewers - they could also be a hit-or-miss.

Overall, whenever I visit Mitsuwa, I always order from Toritetsu. :)“

“Great place! Highly recommend“
