14 Best Sushi Bars near Oak Forest

“Love this place! Definitely recommend. Just eat here. Order with the board and the dry erase.Continue reading if you have more questions.This was my first visit but won’t be my last. Went alone and sat at the bar.Food: I had 6 of the fresh rolls and it of the best sushi I’ve ever had. The rainbow roll was absolutely amazing (my go-to roll). The prices are very reasonable: Specialty rolls are $10-12, and the basic rolls are 2 for $10. Most places in the area are charging $14-$21 for a specialty roll. The size of roll was perfect, not too big not too small and so much flavor in each bite. None of my rolls fell apart, just all around quality. The owner is from Korea so I’m disappointed I did not try the Korean specialties, but ordered Bibimbab to go. She recommended a few dishes for next time.Atmosphere: People keep describing it as a “hole in the wall,” I disagree and describe it as “cozy.” It’s like you’re sitting in the owners living room watching Tv and eating. It may not be everyone’s vibe… but their right people appreciate it. Maybe not the place for a first date high school date, but two degenerates, absolutely.Service: My service was fantastic. There was two people working, I believe they are both owners. The one that made my rolls brought them over with a smile, so nice. They are very kind and easy to talk to. I do not enjoy most people but I enjoyed their company. I read some of the negative reviews and don’t listen to them, they are incorrect. The owners are laid back, hard working and they might not tolerate Karen’s. ??‍♀️ is what it is. They’ll tell you like it is and I’m here for it.People watching is on point.Vegetarian options: At least 10 vegetarian options.“

“Ignore the person who apparently doesn't understand what "EXPRESS" means. This place slaps. It's cheap, good quality, and everyone is nice and friendly. It's a tiny storefront and not really meant for dining in. Don't judge a fish on its ability to climb a tree.“

“I came here with family and friends to celebrate my two kids' birthday, and we had an awesome time. The hibachi is a must do. The kids and adults enjoyed not only the food but the entertainment of the chefs. I ordered the chicken and steak and they both were very good along with the other sides the chefs cooked up in front of us.“

“Good Service, Delicious Sushi, Always Fresh. There is a large variety available on the menu. I have been here many times over the last 5 or 6 years and never disappointed nor have I ever had a bad experience.This place is very busy so a bit of a wait is not surprising. Definitely one of my favorite Sushi places in the area and there are many to choose from.“

“Strip mall sushi spots now populate virtually every urban area in the U.S. It's funny to think that 25 years ago, sushi restaurants were few and far between, and for most folks the notion of eating raw fish was completely absurd. 25 years later and they dot the landscape like fast food chains. Most people have their go-to spot for strip mall sushi, and Ichiban is probably that spot for a lot of people. They're not breaking any new ground here, but the service is good, the restaurant is clean and the sushi is delicious. I've only been there a few times for their all-you-can-eat lunch special, and at $21.95/pp the value is right there. They do offer an extensive menu that features a bigger variety of sushi, as well as Cantonese and Hibachi entrees. I would like to visit again in the evening and sample some of the other items offered on their menu. The all-you-can-eat lunch special features appetizers, pieces of nigiri, common rolls, and a selection of specialty rolls. All of the items I've had have been really good. Great spot to go for a reasonably priced, delicious lunch!“

“We came here for my sister’s birthday and had a blast. The staff was welcoming and our chef was so funny and entertaining. I think this is the most fun I’ve had at a dinner in years. The food was also phenomenal and serving sizes were very generous. I ordered scallops hibachi and sushi. The sushi tasted fresh, and the scallops were buttery soft! I can’t wait to come back again“

“absolutely amazing all around....we were in town from Wisconsin and were referred to a different place further away but decided on here instead....thankful we did. The Ramen was superb, rolls were amazing, and service could not have been better! thank you“

“This was our first time coming here. It is located in a strip mall and is smaller than I expected but cozy. We came here tonight to celebrate our son's birthday. Since his birthday fell on Superbowl Sunday, when we arrived, two other families were finishing their dinner, so we had the place to ourselves after they left. With this being said, the service was wonderful! Staff was very attentive and we loved our chef, Andy. I wish I had taken a video of him twirling the spatulas around because he was awesome, engaging, and funny! For appetizers, we ordered sushi and spring rolls. The birthday celebrant ordered filet mignon and lobster, my daughter ordered the chicken and salmon, hubby ordered the steak and lobster, and I ordered the salmon and lobster. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered. I love my rice, but I especially enjoyed the noodles. To Ryan's wonderful surprise, they brought him fruit after dinner. That was so sweet of them!“

“Our first time visiting. It was soooo pretty inside. Loved the music. Our waitress was awesome. (Wish I would have gotten her name.). The food was superb! We had pot stickers, shrimp fried rice and Governor's chicken. It was all delicious!! We will be back!“

“I really enjoyed this restaurant. The sushi was awesome, great customer service and a nice environment. I ordered the sushi tray for 3 and a side order I can’t remember the name, but it was delicious and the tray had a variety. All of it was fresh and “

“Great food and service. Our chef was very professional and even had a naruto headband. Everything he made was great! Totally worth the price. And the food is so balanced and portioned well! I've had ginger salad in other places and they bomb can't even finish them. This one...comes with the hibachi and it is so delicious! Not overpowered very balanced with the ginger and all the other ingredients as well! Loved it. I vacuumed it into my awaiting mouth!Dietary restrictions: Servers ask if you have any allergies before hand.Parking: Good amount of parking.Kid-friendliness: The chefs have their personalities and are very accommodating to children many of them sing. And they carry around rubber chickens! ? ?“

“Visited last nite, Friday...& thought I'd write a review of the exceptional dinner my husband & I had. We were surprised we were able to be seated as we were walk-ins without reservations (typically this area & its restaurants are hoppin' on "Fun Fridays"!). Let's cut to the chase tho before I continue to embellish. We began with drinks, I had a nice glass of Pinot Grigio while my husband elected to have a good Japanese beer. Edamame was brought right after the drinks, thank you...perfect. Then we reviewed our quite extensive dinner menu options! I mentioned to my husband I was in the mood for some sashimi tonite, and in the very back he found the sashimi dinner options which we selected from! The one we chose was a Sashimi & Sushi combo. It was a HIT! Also, the Presentation was out of this world as the quality of the fresh fish (which were chef's choice for us that evening) was second to none. Oh, we also had the miso soup and salad with ginger dressing...who does not love homemade Ginger dressing...cannot get the stuff at the grocery store that even comes close. All good. My husband ordered his salad separately for a larger portion and he wished he would have ordered the dressing on the side as the dressing was rather abundant on his salad. Other than that, we loved our dinner and experience there! I especially loved that the chef did such an amazing job on his selection of the cuts of fish for our sashimi order! It was a good variety as well as cut. We were very pleasantly surprised! Well done Mr. Wu ! We will definitely be back...“

“I've been here many times and I really love the food here. There is plenty of variety to choose from on the menu, and it is well-seasoned. The service is polite and quick. Most recently, upon entering, we were greeted and seated in less than a minute. Our server quickly provided water and asked if we were ready to order. This night, we ordered chicken fried rice, chicken egg foo young, and orange chicken. The fried rice is my favorite at this location, with extra green onions! Our food was delivered to our table in approximately 10 minutes! Not only is the food delicious and quick, but they have also made interior improvements since COVID. The decor is swanky and more modern. The restrooms are always clean, too.“

“We had a great time celebrating my mom's 67th birthday at Asian Harbor Restaurant in Homewood, IL! The restaurant was beautifully decorated with modern Asian flair. The waitress was very engaging and entertaining! Although it was crowded in the restaurant, we were able to get seated fairly quickly, and we felt like we received VIP treatment! The food and beverages were EXCELLENT and quite affordable! Everything we ate, including the seaweed salad, crab ragoon, pot stickers, egg foo young, pad see ew, orange chicken and the specialty shrimp dish that was stir fried at our table was SUPERB! We will be returning! It's a nice family restaurant, so go and have a great time!Wheelchair accessibility: My mom felt comfortable because the ramp and the wide tables accommodated her wheelchair.“
