“Very top tier Japanese Restaurant in Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood. Fresh food, fresh, delicious, world class chef, and an evening to remember.“

“We were lucky to get the best seats in the Omakase Room right in front of the chefs. Chef Michael was fantastic, explaining everything in each dish. He really took the evening from fantastic to absolutely phenomenal. Shout out to the rest of the staff, too, who expertly recommended beverage pairings and provided such excellent service.“

“Really good and fresh sushi at great prices. Love this place.“

“The food here was delicious!! I’ve done a few omakases, but this was hands down one of the best. Just looking at the sushi you could tell it was high quality. They also cut generous pieces of all the fish.

Mugi was our chef of the night and fantastic. He answered all our questions and made sure we satisfied throughout.“

“Fantastic Service and Delicious Sushi!

I had an amazing experience at this sushi restaurant! The waitresses were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. Their warm hospitality truly enhanced our dining experience.

The food was outstanding—the soup was rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious, making for a perfect start to the meal. I also tried the avocado roll, which was exceptionally fresh and of the highest quality. The avocado was perfectly ripe and creamy, complementing the sushi beautifully.

Overall, this restaurant delivers both excellent service and top-notch sushi. I will definitely be returning. Highly recommend!“

“The food is delicious and the drinks are great!! The atmosphere was amazing!!“

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

“I love Takibi and have been coming here for a few years. Living right around the corner helps of course. It’s a small and simple yet quality restaurant and you can tell the owners are passionate about sushi and giving customers a good experience. The food is always so delicious and I love that they’re BYOB. It’s the best place for a date night and a bottle of wine or to take a couple of friends to catch up.“

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

“อารหารอร่อยไปอุดหนุนกันนะคะ ลองชิมดูจะคุ้มแค่ไปหน“

“Great food and great prices.“

“Delish and very fresh! So yummy!“

“This is absolutely my new favorite handroll spot in chicago. Run - don’t walk. Go before this secret is out.

Every single roll on the menu is delicious. Favorites are the salmon skin and the smoked specialty toro. Dessert is delicious as well. It’s a great restaurant for a date, night out with a friend, dining by yourself. The handroll bar is a great spot to post up.“

“What you want from more of an upscale vegan place. Went in very hungry and tried a lot of things. Don’t sleep on the broccoli appetizer—that was my favorite dish. The ramen was my least favorite—would try a different main next time. It is pricier, but the value for money feels right. We got a ton of dishes and drinks and our bill was under $200 for two people. We didn’t need to order as much as we did, but I only visit Chicago occasionally so it was a treat.“

“Great, good service good food, no complaints“

“My 1st time going so I tried almost everything. I had the raw & cooked sushi. The raw was very fresh. The only thing I didn’t like was the taste of the ginger, left strange taste after eating. Other than that it was quick and easy process, no 1 rushes You to decide what You want to pick. Only about 10 seats all lined up in front of window so Unless You plan to sit & eat quickly just get it to go. They have different size trays so You decide how much You want“

“Best Sushi Restaurant on the planet. Not only was all the food superior than any other Sushi restaurant I've been to. My family and I had a feast.(I mean all the food was good). Very reasonable prices as well. The most astonishing fact about this restaurant was the host (Quam) his amazing knowledge of food and customer service was unlike any other. The Ice cream desert was mind blowing. You don't have to take my word for it, but I guarantee you, you won't find another Sushi restaurant in the city of Chicago as good this one. The ambiance of this establishment is very warm and pleasant. I highly recommend this place for family gatherings, and with people you want to share a special food feast with. It's pure laughter and joy. Thank you Quam for your kind recommendations on food selections. My family and I had the time of our lives, as if we were on vacation. Thank you! "Fresh Shushi Chicago" is a gift to eating out.“

“Decently priced new omakase in town. The nigiri was well paced and appreciated the attentive waiter providing insight on the selection and order. Bar service ran slow. Water service was timely. I’m not always a big proponent of any special treatment but I think if you write both honeymoon AND birthday on the reservation there should probably be a little something to make the occasion, especially if they plop a QR code in front of you at the end to ask you for a review. Left a sour and disappointing note to the night, not sure who missed that but something to be aware of if people are coming to spend hard earned money to mark a special occasion. We ended up going down the street to Chef’s Special for a little more hospitality in that regard and got a candle in our dessert and some comped cookies. A little goes a long way!“

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

“Impeccable service. Friendly staff. Delicious gin“

“Its my 4th time there and I just LoVe it 😍“

“Went there for the first time, loved it. Street parking is tough, but there's a big parking lot right across Neta Sushi. Nice atmosphere, great food. Especially loved Kabayaki Unagi - great combination of Unagi, crab, and tempura.
Prices are comparable with other Sushi places, not cheap, and not outrageous.“

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

“This is a review for Ekiben Catering!

I really wanted to have Japanese food (specifically Onigiri) for a Studio Ghibli-themed baby shower, and reached out to several local restaurants. Ekiben was by far the most responsive and fairly priced!

Shasha was lovely and helped explain the prices and option recommendations. We opted to have the food delivered, and it was delivered exactly on time. Thank you so much! Everyone loved the food!“

“Excellent sushi in Lincoln Park. Staff is fabulous. We were treated like gold in the back cocktail room. A hidden gem!“

“Best sushi! Friendly service!“

“DELICIOUS SUSHI. Fresh, fast and good.“

“Ordered for pickup over 5 times this year and all but one time it's been perfect! Their miso soup is also great with fresh ingredients added in. I don't even want to mention what happened that one time since they've gotten better since then.“

“We were indifferent to Mora when it first opened several years ago. The food was ok but not great. We went back for the first time in years a few weeks ago and were absolutely delighted by everything. We returned on Sunday afternoon and continue to be bowled over inspite of the noisy laughter coming from a couple of women in a corner booth.“

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

“100 o/o recomended and friendly ☺️super yummy 🤤“

“Delicious food. Wonderful service.“

“Always yummy !!! Love their salad, sushi, ramen and sake especially.“

“First time at the division location! Good food awesome flavors & nice staff! Definitely coming back to this location 🫶“

“The Sushi was fresh, the flavors were bold and the rice was fluffy. Will be back for sure and the staff was so friendly and welcoming.“

“This was a wildly delicious meal. Inventive but also traditional. The food itself was the star, but every other aspect of the meal was also great. It felt like a dinner party at friend’s house. The atmosphere was convivial with the chef explaining the food and answering questions from the diners with everyone in the room being able to hear. The single waiter, Jose, was also a delight. I would return here in a heartbeat despite the price tag.“

“Hands down, this was most incredible dining experience I've had the pleasure of tasting in my life. My husband was able to reserve a table for us same day, and while we waited to be seated in the sushi bar at the back, we were served a couple of delicious cocktails. Once seated, the real magic began!

I have never tasted such unique creations before. Each bite was exquisite, each fish's unique flavors complimented but not overwhelmed by the incredibly fresh ingredients atop each piece, expertly crafted and delightfully arranged. Omakase can be a bit of an intimidating experience, especially if you are not sure what you are getting. It can be an experiment in trust. I can say that after the first bite of sushi, the tartare, I wholeheartedly trusted whatever Chef Marcos wanted to put on my plate!

The sushi chefs were so talented and so friendly, answering all our questions about the food and more. I felt I got to know Chef Marcos in particular, who was both skilled, well traveled, and wicked fun to talk to. He even delighted me by speaking a bit of Vietnamese, which I found impressive and charming in equal amounts.

I cannot say enough about how mind-blowing this dining experience was. If I am ever back in Chicago, you can bet I will be back again to enjoy what new creations Chef Marcos has in store for the season.

Dietary restrictions: It is also of note that my husband has a shellfish allergy, and all chefs were incredibly careful in accommodating my husband's allergy, subbing out ingredients so that he wouldn't miss out on anything. I found their care and attention to detail to his allergy be very impressive, and I'm sure anyone with any dietary restrictions will find them equally accommodating. Just let them know when you make the reservation.“

“Voor de 5e keer hier gegeten. Heerlijke pokebowl en sushi. Ruime keus.“

“Over the years, Indie Cafe has been amazingly kind and thoughtful in their service, and their food preparations and presentations always go above and beyond all of my expectations. From quadruple-checking whether or not a menu item is gluten-free, to recommending the best wine/sake pairings for an entrée, their staff have always ensured that I've left their restaurant knowing that I was appreciated as a customer. And welcomed as a friend. Maya is hands-down one of the most excellent servers I've had the pleasure of dining with. She always goes above and beyond with her level of professionalism and attention, and her personality is lovely as well! Given the quality of their sashimi, the creativity behind their menu, and the warmth in their hearts? I look forward to dining with them for many years to come.“
