Jaiyen Sushi & Noodle
James Brendel · 140 Google reviewsJaiyen Sushi & Noodle — one of Roscoe Village's strongest chinese spots. Plates come out looking sharp. Good service that doesn't feel rehearsed. Good value, BYOB. "Their volcano roll is the BEST I've had, spicy, creamy, flavorful and DELICIOUS" — Tuba H. [$$]

“Long time customer for over 7 years. This place is still amazing! I needed to update my review to show some love. This is truly the best stir fried rice in the history of fried rice! Also I have no idea what kind of bowls they use, but the rice stays warm for about 5 hours. Its awesome. I've ordered from here about 70x already, no joke; all because the amount of food, quality, price and taste come together perfectly.”
“Amazing!!!! I love everything tempura. Light and delicious.”
“I unexpected had a couple of hours to kill in the Avondale neighborhood and stumbled upon this place around lunch time and decided to get some takeout to bring to the nearby park. The guy at the counter was super friendly! The menu is pretty big and I will certainly return to try more. I got the sushi lunch special which included two full rolls and a generous serving of miso soup. Not many sushi places spend a lot of effort on their vegan/vegetarian rolls so I was super delighted with the garden maki roll which had a delicious medley of roots, veggies and avocado. Service was quick and friendly. If it wasn't such a nice day out, I would have sat comfortably at the counter and enjoyed my meal. I highly recommend!”
“I dropped into this spot for lunch on a whim and was pleasantly surprised by the chill vibe, the great playlist, and the attention to service. The service was quiet and friendly, and the lunch special was delicious at a great rate. I would recommend anyone with a sushi itch go here for a scratch. I hope to come back soon for the other things on the menu.”
“I live nearby and didn't think too much about it when we walked in on a whim but I am definitely coming back! The service was very attentive, I felt like a little kid with the surprise of whipped cream and sprinkles on the Thai Tea and then getting cute drawings in sauce with the sushi. New favorite local spot for sure!”
“Five stars for fantastic service! The gentleman who took our order had a big smile and helped me pick out a tasty dish from their expansive menu! The serving plate for the Gyoza is a boat and I love that! The Udon Noodle Soup was good on a cold, rainy night it helped perk me up and give me energy. They helped clear away the empty dishes quickly. The decor is also great and fun! Easy to park on the side street!”
“they have the best most happy energy here!! love these guys, we will be back 100%!!”
