“⭐ 5 stars “Worth the drive — and yes, I’ve found my new regular spot.” The service here? Shockingly good. Better than Ocean Prime, and I don’t say that lightly. Our waitress had my tea refills timed so perfectly I’m convinced she was watching my cup like it was the stock market. And honestly, any place with karaoke in the name automatically has my trust. If you’re bold enough to put karaoke on the sign, you’re bold enough to serve good food. The lineup: - Otorro ($5 each): Melted in my mouth like it had somewhere better to be. - Salmon avocado roll: My universal test roll. If a restaurant can’t get this right, I pack my things and go. This one? Certified. Stamped. Approved. - Mango Tango roll: So good it deserves its own theme song. Easily recommendable to anyone with taste buds. - Spicy Latin: Perfectly balanced — the kind of roll that makes you nod to yourself like, “Yeah… they knew what they were doing.” Between the service, the food, and the karaoke energy radiating from the walls, this place is absolutely worth the drive. I’m claiming it as my new regular spot before someone else does.”
“Amazing staff !! Incredibly friendly and attentive. Food was amazing and came out fast despite it being busy. The music was good and it is a bit loud but to be expected. Overall an excellent experience, will come back and highly recommend!!”
“came here after a shift while craving sushi all day and it did not disappoint. one of the few late night sushi spots open and it’s a karaoke lounge! the sushi was really good, and they have so many unique rolls to try. they have raw fish, cooked fish, and vegetarian options. they also have a weekly specials menu which includes $1 oysters. the service was amazing, and we hand an amazing time singing a few songs. look forward to coming back”

“Hands down, this is the best sushi I’ve ever had in my life. This place is literally what made me fall in love with sushi. Every roll is fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. On top of that, they have the best oysters—always fresh and delicious. I come here all the time, they never disappoint. Highly recommended if you’re a sushi lover!”
“Enjoyed the garlic edemame. I'd go for the vegetarian sushi again. Could be better not bad.”
“What a great “hidden gem”. All of the dishes were wonderful and very fresh! Don’t miss out on this great sushi spot for a date night! Good vibes, music, and great service!”
“Cute small place. Nice vibes, the food was GREAT. The tiger shrimp was amazing and huge portion for the price. I mean I'll definitely be a repeat customer and they open late.”
“Sushi was great and oysters for $1 are a good value. Restaurant is small, though. Like 10 tables total. That's not such a bad thing, unless you're looking for a crowd of people to do karaoke with. Sound system is a little disappointing as it cut in and out. Overall, a good place for sushi that's priced well and a decent spot for more intimate karaoke”
“Cool vibes, great service, delicious food - I love coming here!”
“This place is definitely a hidden gem in Chicago! It’s a small but welcoming place with delicious food and karaoke! Perfect for hanging out with friends and family! I usually go here after work since it’s open late! I love to eat out and try new places and compare flavors and I must say the flavors they serve here can rival those of a high end restaurant if not BETTER! Their sashimi if allways so delicious so fresh! Their OTORO IS PHENOMENAL! I personally don’t care much for oysters, but in this place I allways have some every single time we go. If you eat spicy ask for a side of chili oil! Don’t forget they serve alcohol too! Whether it’s beers, soju, cocktails, or shots! A few of my favorite dishes -udon noodles with ribeye! -flaming maki -grilled octopus -grilled squid -ribeye nigiri with quail egg -crab maki -sashimi (all sashimi is great here) Shout out to Henry for all the hospitality kindness!”
