"Diners looking for trendy restaurants need to look no further than River North’s Sushi San. Serving up the best sushi in Chicago accompanied by hip-hop music and minimalist wooden ..."
"Description: Sunda is by far the most amazing Asian fusion restaurants — EVER. Along with the unbelievable sushi (and all the other food, for that matter), there is always fun music bumping and great people watching. It is the perfect spot to go with your family, and an even better place to pregame a night out in the city!"
"A post shared by KAI ZAN (@kaizanchicago) on Jun 19, 2019 at 2:21pm PDT. KAI ZAN is an elegant and cozy joint known to be the home of creative Japanese dishes that will leave foodies wanting more. The warm, relaxed setting is great for an evening of special treats and meals featuring tasty bites including sushi and many more."
"Humboldt Park’s Kai Zan is another spot where it’s best to order the omakase menu and trust the sushi chef. This is one of the best places to order uni (sea urchin) which is flown in fresh. Be sure to snag a wooden booth which is designed for ultimate privacy during your meal."
"Chicago Ave. (between Rockwell Street and Maplewood Avenue), is another top choice, with Yelpers giving the sushi bar, Asian fusion and Japanese spot 4.5 stars out of 1,030 reviews."
"Serving some of the city's best sushi, this warm, cozy room in West Town seems to encourage you to stay for hours, sipping sake and Japanese whisky. Start with appetizers like the chrunchy chicken karaage or the decadent roasted bone marrow served with ribeye tarare before moving on to sashimi, nagiri and maki selections. You'll find everything from bluefin tuna to Alaskan king crab on the menu, along with speciality items that can be accompanited by optional caviar supplements."
"The best sushi really depends on what type of experience you’re looking for. Yuzu Sushi & Robata Grill has by far the most Instagrammable presentations (going crazy with elaborate sauce designs). There are also a few all-you-can-eat spots that are also great deals (and filling if you’re not looking for the best fish) like Sushi Para M."
"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."
"A post shared by Table for Two (@table__for__two) on Jan 16, 2019 at 7:25am PST. Be prepared to be blown away from the moment you step foot into this two-level 300-seater restaurant. A grand staircase connects both levels, allowing guests a magnificent full view of its chic dining space."
"Tao Chicago opened with great fanfare in 2018, revealing an astonishing reimagining of a circa-1892 landmark in River North. The historic property, with its stone structure and arc..."
"Yuzu Sushi & Robata Grill was established in 2011 in Chicago, with now two locations. Both locations were set by their adoring owner Yut Vong. Upon his coming into America and being at the food industry for over a decade, Yut’s passions and livelihood turned one hundred and eighty degrees to the foodservice business, making the first group of beef rolls and robata emphasizing the young urban diners of all Chicago."
"Description: This casual restaurant definitely wins for the most beautiful sushi accompanied with beautiful designs. Be sure to try the Avocado Mango Salad and one of the Special Rolls (like the one featured above.) You better have a camera on hand, because these dishes CANNOT be eaten without snapping a pic on Instagram or Snapchat, trust me. #SpoonTip: Yuzu is BYOB!"
"Description: Yuzu Chicago is a great spot for ~artsy~ and delicious sushi rolls and robata grilled dishes. Be sure to order the Dragon Ball roll under the "Yuzu Jumbo Roll" section of the menu!. Location: 1751 W Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60622"
"Within a year of opening, Naoki has already received numerous accolades. Naoki’s name has appeared on the ‘best’ lists of Chicago Zagat, Chicago Magazine, Infatuation and Thrillist to name a few. Chef Naoki Nakashima, a native of Fukuoka, Japan, consulted and revamped sushi menus around the world prior to opening his namesake restaurant in 2016."
"Lettuce Entertain You’s Naoki Sushi is a hidden gem, literally. The intimate restaurant is located behind Intro’s dining room and kitchen. Grab a seat at the sushi bar to interact with Chef Naoki Nakashima while he prepares sashimi plates, hand rolls, and maki including hamachi with yuzu, scallion, and cucumber."
"Just beyond Wrigleyville lies this section of Lakeview; it's been a major "gayborhood" since the 1970s, which also makes it one of the…"
"If your ideal vision of a Chinatown eatery is small, authentic, and here to knock your socks off with one signature dish, look no further than Xi’an Cuisine. The décor is sparse, the drinks are BYOB, and the TVs are always on. This all matters very little though when the flavors are so big."
"There are several fantastic dim sum places in Chinatown, but Cai has one of the biggest selections of authentic dishes available in the city. Located on the second floor of the complex, the restaurant encapsulates the classic dim sum atmosphere – chaotic, loud, and full of clinking plates. A few carts still make rounds, but the majority of ordering is done from an illustrated menu full of glass wrapper dumplings, steamed ribs, radish cakes, and other delicious dishes."
