“The food here is absolutely delicious and large portions!!!“

“I’ve been searching for a great place for sushi and I’ve finally found it at Tekka! The sushi is outstanding here and very fresh! The menu has a long list of options for all! The staff is quick to serve you and is very friendly and knowledgeable! The entire place is immaculate and tastefully decorated! And the smell of seared tuna and scallops fills the air making way to a pleasant and inviting atmosphere! Well done!“

“Great service, fantastic food, and I had a great time with my cousin there. The server was so helpful in explaining their combos and allowing us all the food combinations we wanted in a simplified manner. The boba smoothie was Devine too!“

“I truly appreciated their take on ramen as I typically do not eat it because of the fish broth. I had the pork with noodles and I couldn't finish it. Very filling. Cute place, a little dark. Still a great little place that now serves appetizers“

“I've been to a lot of AYCE sushi places. I just tried this spot and it's my new favorite. The restaurant itself is small but the sushi was some of the best I've had. The rolls were on the smaller side which means I can order more and get more variety. The icing on the cake is that the AYCE dinner is $25 which is great considering others are at least $30 nowadays“

“We were met by two of the nicest people today. Ichiro and Mrs. Lee. They were warm and friendly, and Ichiro made a recommendation which we obliged. He said if you don’t like it, no problem I will make you whatever you like. He made a recommendation for Ramen and sushi and everything was top quality, amazing flavor, and our new favorite! Thank you so much! You are two beautiful souls! Luca and I will see you Sunday for lunch.“

“This was a pretty decent spot for ramen considering there are not a whole lot in the Lisle area. There is shared parking. They have a decent amount of seating, I don’t think they get super busy. They also have a special Chinese menu so I guess this is a good Chinese and Japanese place. I’ll have to return to try their Chinese dishes. We ordered gyoza, kaarage shoyu ramen, and tonkotsu ramen. The broths were well seasoned. The kaarage chicken was very juicy in the middle and crispy on the outside. The chashu was very tender and little chew. Gyozas were tasty. They had a nice crunch to them. Service was okay, not much of a service. Prices were good.“

“The best sushi that I ever had. I am addicted and I drive almost an hour to go as much as possible.“

“Each table seats 4. We dined in. They have take out as well. We were greeted right away by a friendly wait staff who helped us with some recommendations along with taking our order. everything we ordered was great I had the black garlic pork on the first page of the menu, one of the children had plain ramen with chicken broth and the other had a chicken ramen bowl. We all tried each others and we all agreed our own bowl was the best but they all were good. You can either make your own, à la carte and choose your ingredients or you can choose from pre-made with pictures which we did because it was our first time. we didn't have room for appetizers, but we will definitely be back to try them because they all look amazing. Everything was delicious and we had a fun time with lots of leftovers which they package up very cute and neat, they put the ramen noodles in a bowl and your broth separate so your noodles don't suck it all up by the time you eat it again.. saved it as a new favorite spot!! The kids were ecstatic and had an amazing time which is very hard to do with most restaurants. fun food for kids and great eats for adults. 10 out of 10 from the kids!“

“El pasillo de la comida es buenísimo !! Me encanta el snack house que prepara una comida deliciosa“

“Had a great experience here. The sushi rolls were really good—fresh, flavorful, and put together well (the kind where every bite tastes intentional, not sloppy or overloaded).

What really made the night, though, was our waitress. She was kind, fun, and genuinely made us feel welcome without being over the top. Service was quick, drinks stayed filled, and she had the perfect vibe for a relaxed dinner.

Definitely a solid spot for good rolls and friendly service—I’d come back.“

“I love the food here. I've loved everything i have tried. Ask for Luke to be your server! He's fantastic!“

“I have eaten at Tanaka Sushi once or twice a month since 2021, and they consistently serve the best Japanese and Korean food in the Naperville/Lisle area. I am a sushi snob, and their sushi is always fresh and well-prepared. Their cooked dishes are always served piping hot and delicious, well-plated, and the portion sizes are great for the price. The employees clearly have a tight-knit work environment, and they are all always polite. I cannot recommend this restaurant more. You will never regret a Tanaka Sushi lunch.“

“Great food and service. Large menu to choose from. Will be back.“

“Food was awesome and staff was very friendly“

“This is lovely place to relax and enjoy a meal. Our waiter, Paul, was so kind! His service was impressive. This was our first experience with Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ. The food was amazing. When we return, we will ask for Paul!“

“Excellent food and our chef was SO MUCH FUN!“

“Absolutely blown away by Ichiddo Ramen in Naperville! Their ramen is fantastic—rich broth, perfectly cooked noodles, and toppings that hit the spot every time. But the real game-changers are their appetizers—absolutely freaking awesome! I highly recommend the short rib and crab jalapeño appetizers; they're insanely delicious, packed with flavor, and totally addictive. The service is always fast, friendly, and attentive, making each visit an absolute pleasure. Ichiddo Ramen has quickly become my go-to spot—5 stars without hesitation!“

“Awesome service and the sushi lunch specials were great“

“Great restaurant very good portions of delicious food. Compared to other hibachi restaurant this is by far the best .our # 1 will be back for more.“

“I love Domo 77 and you will too! This place is absolutely amazing with attentive staff, amazing chefs, and outstanding food. The Domo mustard is the absolute best addition to a Hibachi dish and if you don’t believe me, go try it! Amazing and unique drink menu, great desert, and fantastic Hibachi dining atmosphere!“

“Our favorite place for sushi! Food is great. Fish is fresh. Staff is very friendly. Order here once a week.“

“I love this place! The food is always fresh and delicious. I'm not able to frequent this spot in person like I used so I order through Uber Eats and they do such a great Job at packaging your food safely and they always listen to the notes section. 5/5 Would recommend“
