Neko Sushi&Thai — Jefferson Park thai that sets the standard. Order the Ramen. A holdout in the best possible way, and BYOB. Marina B.: "It was rich, full of flavor, and perfectly spicy—just the way I like it"

“It was rich, full of flavor, and perfectly spicy—just the way I like it”
This was a 2nd attempt at giving Neko Sushi a chance to shine.
Went yesterday, the two of us ordered a sushi roll each, as well as a full entree each.

“Softshell crab was a 10/10.”
Softshell crab was a 10/10. Sushi was good and beautifully presented. Waitress was so so sweet. I'd become a regular here if I lived in the area.

We were looking for a Ramen restaurant to celebrate my friend's birthday, and our usual spot was packed, we decided to look for another place and Neko Sushi&Thai was nearby. Amazing decision! The moment we walked in, we were welcomed by Banks, our server, there was no wait time, the drinks and food were amazing, and she was regularly checking in on us to make sure we were okay. I asked the staff for a dessert to celebrate my friend's bday, and I told them anything but chocolate. They came out with mochis and a candle! 🥹 We loved this place, affordable, cozy, friendly staff. Shout out to the sushi chefs also, la comida estuvo al 100! We're definitely making this place one of our top 3 spots! Thank you all so much!

I recently ordered from this place for the first time because I wanted to try something new, and I’m thrilled! I was craving ramen, and this one definitely exceeded my expectations. It was rich, full of flavor, and perfectly spicy—just the way I like it. They were also very generous with the meat. 😁 Besides the ramen, I ordered takoyaki, and it was delicious! But let’s be honest—when is takoyaki not perfect? 😄 All in all, I’ll be ordering my ramen and takoyaki from here from now on. My local spot just doesn’t meet the criteria anymore.

“So happy to have this gem in the neighborhood.”
So happy to have this gem in the neighborhood. The sushi is so fresh and beautiful, and the Thai food is also amazing. Try the Khao Soi, holy cow! So flavorful and filling. Comfort food at the core. We will be back!

“Great service, our waitress was super nice.”
Great service, our waitress was super nice! We came Tuesday at 4:30. Monster roll was really good. But ramen lacks flavor for me. Overall good experience!

“My wife & I picked up sushi and pad Thai to-go.”
My wife & I picked up sushi and pad Thai to-go. The pad Thai was so very flavorful with somewhat sweet noodles. The sushi order was large enough that we got a large container with a beautiful presentation. We loved all the rolls we had, including OMG, Don’t make me cry, and Godzilla. The prices were reasonable for Chicago, and we got a free shrimp roll included because the order was over $50. Although we didn’t dine in, the interior is intimate and cutesy with the Asian cat art all over the place. We recommend this place :)

“This place just opened two weeks ago, and after driving by my friends and I decided to stop here for dinner.”
This place just opened two weeks ago, and after driving by my friends and I decided to stop here for dinner. The prices were on par with other Asian fusion restaurants we frequent in neighborhoods like Lincoln Park or Bucktown, and the portions were WAY BETTER! The Thai Iced Tea in particular was so flavorful unlike the watered down versions you’ll find at some places. The dragon sushi roll and takoyaki tasted so fresh and delicious. The pad Thai and fried rice were great too, and we had plenty of leftovers. Service was fast and friendly. My friends and I will absolutely be coming back here again!
