50 Best Sushi Bars near Norridge

“The food was good and the service no complaint the atmosphere was really good too I always like to go there to eat. They greet you when you walk in and they thank you for coming in.

Vegetarian options: The vegetables are very good to eat.“

“Went here for a date night and it was excellent. The quality and quantity of food was appropriate for the price point and the food was excellent. Another highlight was the sake. They had a great selection that paired with the food and the server was very knowledgeable and helpful. Overall if you want a laid back omakase with quality food, go here“

“Made to order sushi place that offers a range of options: nigiri, sashimi, rolls, and fried seafood etc.

Price is very reasonable. You can find a menu on their website. The store also sells Japanese snacks, sauces, and spices. Only a few small tables food court style so plan to get take out if you prefer table service or have group of 4+.

Recommend ordering on the phone in advance; at peak hours there is a wait time of about 40 minutes.

They do catering and large orders. Seems like a great option for ordering food for a party.“

“Great food and great prices.“

“I've been coming to this restaurant for years, and it has the best sushi I've ever tasted. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, making each visit enjoyable. The quality of food and service is consistently amazing. I truly love this place and highly recommend it!“

“Delish and very fresh! So yummy!“

“อารหารอร่อยไปอุดหนุนกันนะคะ ลองชิมดูจะคุ้มแค่ไปหน“

“I’ve been here twice for lunch and dinner. Both times the fish was perfect. Nigiri and Sashimi that is top of its class (fresh, large portions, perfectly prepared). This is one of the best sushi spots in Chicago and the prices are more reasonable than everywhere else (local or in the city). The Nigiri/Sashimi lunch is only $16 and very large. I had 12 different cuts of fish for dinner. I will definitely be back. Great food, great service, well done! Highly recommended.“

“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.“

“I’ve come here a few times now since they opened and I can confidently say it’s some of the best Japanese food I’ve ever had. There takoyaki especially is the best in the city, probably in the Chicago area in general. I’ve had both their spicy tonkatsu ramen and black garlic ramen and the black garlic is my favorite of the two but they’re both very good. My wife tried their lunch special recently and was a huge fan. I’m hoping to come here for years to come so do yourself a favor and give them a try.“

“Not only does this place have fairly priced sushi, but it's also very delicious and fresh. Not to mention the sweet and friendly lady who I always see - they have amazing customer service. Back to the food; I usually get the fire roll, aka dragon roll, spicy shrimp roll, and Lincoln roll, and they're all very tasty and have always been fresh. This is my go-to place whenever I'm feeling sushi! I look forward to trying out the other dishes and sushi rolls!

P.S. as far as I know, they only do take-out, so it's a quick in and out with this place.“

“DELICIOUS SUSHI. Fresh, fast and good.“

“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.“

“Good foods and good service, give it a five (5) ⭐️“

“Great food and atmosphere. ❤️“

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

“My food was very yummy, the staff and service was also top notch!“

“We were really excited to check out a new sushi place in our neighborhood, but honestly it was fine. We sat at the bar and ordered a few appetizers during happy hour. The miso soup was excellent! However, I think the bartender forgot about us for almost a half hour before we could order the rest of our meal. And we were one of 3 couples at the bar.

The fish itself was good (not bad), but I was underwhelmed. We paid 20 dollars for a maki rolls that was essentially shrimp tempera with a little salmon on top.“

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

“Food was excellent. Highly recommend.“

“Love this place. Great sushi with great prices!“

“Parking: There is a parking garage directly under the restaurant, taking the elevator up brings you right next to the patio. There were plenty of parking spots.

Wheelchair accessibility: The two sets of doors into the restaurant are not automatic, but the restaurant is very wheelchair accessible otherwise, and parking in the garage below, you're able to take an elevator up easily.“

“Very good quality fish. great service“

“It’s very pleasant and the food is delicious!“

“Wonderful food and service. Will definitely be back“

“Last evening at Kyōten was enchanted. The bar seats eight people. And there is only a single seating per night at 6:30. The base price on a Friday/weekend is $490 + tax, and my bill was $557 with one delicious sake.

Chef Otto Phan is Vietnamese-American, and he’s obsessed with Japanese ingredients and flavors. He doesn’t do anything that steps afoul of Japanese traditions, but he’s also not constrained by them. Phan is a wunderkind with close relationships built with mentors and purveyors in Tokyo, who he visits twice annually and texts daily. Like an investor on the phone with a trader on the exchange floor, the fish traders on the floor of Tokyo’s bustling fish markets text Phan daily updates about what looks extraordinary, and so Phan’s menu is seasonal, based on the market’s best daily offering, and features only wild-caught fish. This, and the fact that Phan personally prepares every bite dispelled my concern that the cost of dinner was gratuitous. After dining and understanding the premium Phan pays for his ingredients, the cost makes sense.

Everything tasted delicious. There was one course I couldn’t eat, monkfish liver, but I did have the slightest nibble and it was buttery, mild, and delicious, and I loved its ginger teriyaki bath. As a wildlife disease epidemiology researcher, I’m essentially a parasitologist. And once I interact with a research specimen in the field, my ability to eat a clean version of that thing raw in the future is done. It’s why raw proteins are nearly impossible for me in general. I put my rules and prejudices aside and ate course after course of Phan’s transportingly delicious fish painted with sauces, glistening, sliced, pinched, sometimes packed over delicious rice, and often concealing a poultice of wasabi, citrus zest, horseradish, ginger, or other complementary aromatics taking each bite to the next level. Some courses I enjoyed with my eyes closed to focus on the flavors, not caring that I may have looked weird. The two tempura courses, lobster with its roe, and beltfish, were my favorites.

Another protein that I generally don’t enjoy raw is beef. Phan’s wagyu nigiri looks extremely rare, but it spends four hours in the sous vide and its fats and juices melt in your mouth. My enjoyment of this wagyu was in contrast to wagyu I was served last week at a different restaurant’s tasting menu where a nearly fist-sized rose-shaped wad of too much wagyu to serve in one bite made me channel my inner Khaleesi as I imagined myself as Daenerys Targaryen trying to choke down a whole horse heart. Phan’s wagyu course, like all of his courses, I truly enjoyed.

Phan is an artist, and watching his passion and giftedness was thrilling. His hands squeezing the rice or shaping the fish and the gleam in his eyes made me think of the Japanese aesthetic principle of wabi-sabi, which embraces imperfection, transience, and connection to nature. Here is this beautiful young chef in his absolute prime, with extraordinary fish that he instructs you to eat the moment he places it on your plate not waiting for the diner next to you to receive theirs, and we’re tasting the fruits of our oceans, which are in a race against time both literally with a short window on their peak freshness, and also figuratively as our oceans are warming.

I fell in love last night.“

“My family and I are very picky when it comes to sushi, but this place went beyond my expectations. They really stuffed the sushi with fresh ingredients. The quality of the fish was excellent. My father is especially particular about his sushi rice, and it was perfect for him. For the price of this sushi, it is definitely reasonable. I recommend this sushi restaurant to everyone. Will definitely come back to this place!“

“Absolutely delicious! This is a gem of a place that I would go back to time and time again if I lived in the area. Fish is flown in from Japan and the chef has worked in restaurants all over the world. Everything we ordered was fantastic- highly recommend!“

“Amazing food, wonderful presentation and taste, calming environment and reasonable prices.“

“Sakura was a cozy restaurant with really good Sushi, we enjoyed our time there! 😊🙏🏻“

“Starting off it was pretty good and pretty cool for my first experience going to a rotary or conveyor sushi and I would come here every so often because it's kinda expensive compared to all you can eat but the last couple times I've been here it's been a little lacking in quality in my recent visit the sushi was a little chilled and ice cold when I ate it along with my spicy mayo now it wasn't frozen or icey but it was the temperature of it coming out of the fridge which I wasn't really a fan of. The roll quality has also gotten a little worse because some of the rolls I got just fell apart especially the one hand roll I got. However I am not saying this is a bad place the fish is super fresh the staff is very kind and always there when you need them and the atmosphere is great for a family night out or for a cool dinner experience I will definitely be returning to Kura revolving sushi i definitely recommend it to every one it a great place.“

“There was absolutely nothing that could have been better.
This is one of the best experiences aive had at a sushi place, period.
The staff greeted me with smiling faces, were attentive without being obtrusive, and genuinely seemed to care that I was satisfied throughout the meal.
The food? Probably the best I've had anywhere around Chicagoland. Not kidding; I felt compelled to write a review after, which isn't every day.
Great location only a minute or 2 off I-90, as well, so I will most certainly be back!

Edit: stopping back again another day, I was impressed at the amount of effort the waitress took trying to find something to suit me and my guest, who didn't have much experience with sushi.
Our meal was fantastic, and suited both of us well. Also had a great presentation, which I generally don't take much note of.

Same opinion as before - one of the best in the area.

Parking: The lot is small, and it is easy to drive past. Not their fault, but be advised it may be difficult to park here at peak times.“

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

“Always great and fresh sushi here. Keep in mind this isn't a sit-down spot and is strictly a take out place. Not much options if you were to walk in as you are required to order ahead (which can take some time ~ buffer at least 60 minutes ahead)

Parking: Somewhat difficult depending on time. The free parking lot doesn't have a lot of space.“

“Amazing!!! I love sushi and this is some of the best I’ve ever had. Everything was so fresh—from the fish to the veggies and even the ginger, you can tell it’s all high quality. We also had the chicken fried rice and it was flavorful and delicious. Our waitress was so sweet and the atmosphere great—clean and well decorated. We’ll be back for sure!“

“Very relaxing environment and excellent sushi choices. Great saki as well.“

“Excellent food and service!! Highly recommend!“

“The absolute best neighborhood sushi place I've ever come across! How is their product so fresh!?! (Super H Mart is two miles away) The family owned business is one of my favorites in my 'hood. Intimate, clean, and welcoming it's just the Best!“

“This place is a gem! Tasty and affordable, service always pleasant. All the times I’ve ordered for pick up the orders have been accurate. Definitely a family favorite.“

“we get takeout from here a lot. we love the basil chicken, the tom yum, tofu red curry and the tempura. most recent order we got pad see ew and it was borderline inedible - mushy and flavorless. but in general this place plays the hits well!“

“Awesome restaurant awesome food :) .“

“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.“

“THE BEST place for AYCE (all you can eat) sushi. I've been going here for almost 2 years and they never disappoint. Ordered out 3 or 4 times during the lock-down and they got my order perfectly right every time. They're open for dine-in again, very happy about that! The AYCE dinner menu includes appetizers, basic rolls, signature rolls, sushi, sashimi, and ice cream. Every single thing I've ever ordered has been high quality and absolutely delicious. Staff are very nice and the food comes out in good time. Our go-to spot, I recommend Sushi World to everyone I know!“

“This sushi restaurant is a gem right here on Western the longest street in the universe fun fact, western runs plenty of miles one of the longest streets in America. Where can find abundance of restaurants and foods that come into your drive however, gorilla sushi is a heart of the north side of heart of sushi this is the only place you need to come to when it’s time to get busy with your sushi and your chopsticks. I suggest you come here only do not wish your time and other sushi places, they are not as valuable and food is not worth the price. Other places only come to gorilla sushi here on western where you will find the most fares prices realistic food and however, the service is amazing.“

“First time trying Nobori, and I must say the Sushi was amazing. The owner Nobori was kind, friendly, and attentive. To start, we ordered edamame, and miso soup. One of the best miso soups I've had. Edamame was streaming hot, and yummy. We ordered Ramen miso soup, which was really tasty. For sushi we ordered, the Patrick roll, Galapagos roll, and sushi/sashimi combo that comes with spicy tuna rolls. For dessert we ordered green tea ice cream. All the rolls were phenomenal. We will def be back.“

“Jimoto is a great experience and excellent food. The apps and sushi are done very well. As a return customer, they are very consistent and it’s also a great dining environment.

My only comment would be about training the servers on the menu. Wasn’t sure if we had a new one last time, so I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt, but he wasn’t familiar with the different tuna types on the menu (hamachi, otoro, etc). Still top notch, would highly recommend.“

“If you’re looking for great sushi at an affordable price, try the Godzilla roll at Sushi4u. The roll is packed with fresh, vibrant flavors and just the right amount of spice. The presentation is great, and each bite is satisfying. Plus, it’s budget-friendly, so you get excellent value for your money. The staff at Sushi4u are friendly. Don’t miss out on the Godzilla roll – it’s definitely worth a try. Head over to Sushi4u and enjoy!“

“The Sushi was absolutely delicious .“

“This place is great! I’ve enjoyed everything I’ve gotten here, and the lady who works here is SO NICE! My partner is gluten free and she is helpful with this and offers gluten free soy sauce which is nice and rare to find. Also.. BOGO later in the day is wonderful and for the other low star reviews about their BOGO sushi not seeming super fresh… like that’s the point? It’s BOGO so they don’t have to just throw it all away at the end of the night, so if you need it fresh just made then obviously don’t get the BOGO items lol.
In short great food and if you know how to enjoy things you should be able to enjoy this ?“

“I order for delivery. The scallop shooter seemed like the scallop was somewhat blanched or something. It wasn’t the texture of raw scallop which is nice and soft. It wasn’t rubbery though so that’s good. I ordered negi hamachi maki and the fish portion is not great. Same with the unagi roll, i think I can get better makis made at another place. The salmon asparagus/cucumber appetizer was great.“
