“Went here on a Friday night recently for the first time with a friend. The host and the waitress made sure that my first experience would be unforgettable. We received delicious appetizers on the house. Service was probably the best service I've received in a really long time. And most importantly the food was delicious and fresh. Staff put so much effort into their service and food. It was refreshing to have such a positive experience at a local restaurant for a change. Will be back again soon!“
“Fast and friendly service. Good food. I did ask the waiter if they get to keep their tips and he said yes they do. He was surprised that I asked him so I explained about the review below and he said that it is incorrect; they do get to keep all their tips.“
“Took my daughter here on Saturday night, it was great. We had a Red Dragon roll and Beef and Egg Udon noodles, everything was amazing, the food was only out done by the great service!Parking: Typical strip mall parking, handicap parking and access“
“I have enjoyed this cafe for quite some time. Highly recommended if you are looking for good sushi. The bulgogi ramen is great as well. the Spicy Kyle roll is my favorite. We usually order takeout and the service is always spot on. Always exactly what we ordered.“
“If you're near Libertyville craving some sushi or hibachi, this is the spot to visit. Their sushi rolls are delicious! You must try the Dragon Ferrari and OMG rolls. They won't disappoint you. They're full of flavor. It's probably my 4th time coming to this spot and they never disappoint. If you're feeling hibachi, try the stake and shirmp, it's also delicious!“
“One of my favorite sushi restaurants. I wish it was a little nicer, kinda showing it's age, restaurant is over 10 years old, decors hasn't changed since then. Service is good, and they are attentive.Vegetarian options: Have friends who are vegetarian they enjoy their food.“
“There was a little language barrier between us and our server. We ordered sushi, but at the end of our meal we asked where our sushi was and they told us no one was making sushi that eve. It showed up on our bill too. They took care of it though. The food was delicious and the chef was very entertaining! Our 6 and 3 year old loved the chef's tricks.“
“Good sushi rolls!! Been here a couple times & love it, doesn’t disappoint! We ordered & recommended the Miami Roll, Spicy Tuna Tempura, Caterpillar, the dumplings are good too! They also have burrito rolls, didn’t try them but they look good. Service was great as well. Very attentive. Place was very clean as well. & food tasted so fresh.“
“Really nice little place. Me and a friend came in and they sat us down right away. We got all you can eat sushi. We tried all of the sushi and every single one of them were delicious. The Crab Rangoon was the best I ever had and all of the other sides we had were amazing. We finished off with the mochi iced cream.Over all it was amazing and the only complaint was the service was a bit slow. I would definitely bring friends here again!“
“We went to Shakou for dinner a couple of weeks ago for the first time. I can say that service was amazing - we were served by a new waitress ( she was still in training) but she did an excellent job providing perfect customer service. She was there when she was needed and provided space for us to have a great date throughout the evening.The food was on par with the service. We ordered miso soup, ahi tartar and salmon carpaccio for appetizers. For entrees we had diver scallops and jumbo shrimp dish and chicken teriyaki entree. Both appetizers and entrees were very delicious and we would definitely order it again. One thing I wanted to note that the scallop and shrimp entree is quite small, so make sure to get an appetizer (I was glad we did, because the scallop entree alone would not be enough for dinner for me - it is so good though I could probably eat two of those ?). For dessert we had chocolate lava cake a la mode and chocolate pyramid - both were pretty good, but lava cake is definitely the winner between the two.Overall, I definitely recommend this place. It has a city vibe to it, so louder than most suburban places, hence attracts younger crowd. 5 starts ?“
“We like Asian Harbor, we frequent this place. We're creatures of habit, and we order the same thing, usually combination fried rice or pineapple fried rice, crab Rangoon, egg rolls, or the side salad with ginger dressing. But the meals are tasty, the portions are great and the sushi is good too. Service is very good. Robot is a little creepy, lol..“
“It was my first time going, and it definitely won't be my last. The restaurant is so nice on the inside, the plaza definitely doesn't do it justice. The food we had was really good! And everything tasted fresh which is important for sushi. Not to mention the presentation was a really nice touch, they brought all of our sushi on a wooden boat. Also, our waitress was super sweet and helpful as well. Overall it was a great first impression and I'll definitely be telling others about Umai!“
“Haven't visited in quite a while, particularly for dinner. The current chef seems to be doing a respectable job with ingredient selection and traditional preparation techniques. I didn't think we'd ever find Tara no Kiku (cod milt) fresh in Mundelein, but they're doing it. They have a nice selection to dine izakaya style. It's pretty spendy though, being higher than other similar spots around.“
“Came here with my dateService was really nice, food was absolutley super freshI was not sure how many food to orderEnd up a lot of food to pack for next day LunchSpicy birria ramen was spicy and tasty ramen ever hadAnd again was huge amount i can not even finish half. Since we ordered sushi and maki roll as wellRaging Bull roll was my choice and it was bombAnd my date picked salmon lover rollWhich was fresh but i like my raging bull betterHouse Fried rice you must orden if you share the meal“
“This place used to be terrible a few years ago but something has changed drastically. Very good buffet options and everything is fresh. AND the price is great. Like $12 for lunch IIRC. Lots of chicken and a few beef diahes with all the appetizer choices. I like this place a lot if you like the options part of a buffet. Good stuff now!“
