8 of the Best Sushi Restaurants in Chicago — 2020 Edition
"Surprisingly affordable and elegant, Kai Zan is one of River West’s most popular sushi joints. The brainchild of Melvin and Carolo Vizconde, the omakase menu is the way to go, whether you choose the chef’s choice or the new Omakase — boasting premium offerings that are carefully selected. Off the menu, you’d be remiss not to try the scallops or oyster shooters, the escolar or magura pearls, or the green monster roll made with shrimp tempura, unagi, and crab, or the fiesta maki made with fresh tuna, salmon, jalapeño, and spicy chili oil."

"Arami is the rare Japanese restaurant that offers a wide ranging menu, yet somehow, expertly maintains the quality of their food. There are sushi, ramen and even robata (charcoal) grilled items on the menu to choose from. Thanks to having two executive chefs, Arami is able to focus both sushi and hot food from the kitchen."

"And none of us would exhibit our robust appetite full-on while a potential lover is across the table. Arami is the perfect eatery where the nigiri and sashimi are as good as it gets. The menu at Arami is far from fancy, but the food is authentic."

Whether guests stop in during lunch for a beef dip sandwich or treat themselves to a nice hunk of dry-aged beef at dinner, there are plenty of delicious choices that’ll evoke visions of Paris."

"By law, no building in Chicago can be built on the lake side of Lake Shore Drive. However, one developer found a loophole and built Lake Point Tower, one of the tallest residential buildings in the world. Up at the top, on the 70th floor, Cite’ serves up excellent French-inspired American haute cuisine."

"River North and West Loop French MarketWhat you’re getting: The Gold Coast Lobster RollWhile its Gold Coast location is now a soon-to-be casualty of building demolition, it's still got the River North (BYOB, by the way) and West Loop digs inside the French Market. The quick-service lobster roll eatery serves authentic New England rolls with a twist, including Indian, Asian, Mexican, and Greek varieties. If you’re missing the newly closed shop, you can always get the Gold Coast-style lobster roll with lobster, blue crab, shrimp, and truffle mayo in River North."
