Maya Ignatova
My friend and I went there for the first time today( we were the first customers to walk in shortly after they opened ). We ordered quite a lot, but the prices are reasonable, especially for a place on Michigan Avenue! More importantly, the sushi was fresh and our server was very nice! Presentation was excellent too! We will definitely go back. Thank you guys for a great experience!

Raw fish was definitely not fresh and the server’s service was not good. Chicken karaage was also not very fresh. The view from the outdoor dining space was great but I wouldn’t go back again for the food.

I walk by often and decided to stop in one Saturday for lunch. I ordered the lychee martini, zen maki and the sautéed string beans. I was brought out an miso soup even though I didn’t order it, so I think it comes with an meal. Everything was delicious!

The Mongolian beef was not spicy, with a smaller portion, and not cut up enough. Long strips of beef are hard to eat with chopsticks. Good fast service, open late, lively bar.

Nice, quiet, upscale ramen and sushi spot. Visited with friends on a very cold day after watching the St Patrick’s Day Parade and was very appreciative of the quick service. Gyoza was a good starter, but the steaming hot bowls of flavorful ramen warmed us right up! Unfortunately for me, the only non-pork ramen options were either chicken katsu (fried chicken served on the side) or mushroom. Even so, the chicken was nice and crispy and the broth was delicious. Bushido sake was good for additional warmth and came in a convenient resealable can.

This place is great. Just a very short wait to get in, and the wait staff is wonderful. Got the ramen and calamari, and both were excellent. I would avoid the saki flight, and just ask what the two best sakis are in the flight and just get those. The third one was not very good.

Chicken ramen is good but sashimi didn’t have any taste. Overpriced. I asked small sashimi like on the picture and she brought me big supreme portion which I couldn’t finish.

Best Neighborhood Sushi! Great appetizers, excellent Sushi, extensive tea list, and amazing Mojitos. This is my daughter and I favorite after school lunch spot. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. The food is always fresh and delicious.

Absolutely delicious, quick service & conveniently within walking distance of the Congress Plaza Hotel. We went twice during our stay in Chicago. On the second visit we ordered the Tokyo Tonkotsu ramen with the Big Philly roll. Highly recommend this place for a bite after a Field Museum visit

First time here off Yelp ratings. Went on a slow time of day and sat outside alone. Great ramen, sushi and service. I will return and recommend it for people visiting the downtown Chicago area.
