Really cute Japanese place close to the airport, our actual plan was to get Halal pizza from Girodano’s but had to change our plans and the wife picked this place at a walking distance

The staff were friendly and accommodated us when we didn't have a reservation. The food was delicious! I got the chicken curry and I could happily eat that for dinner every night! Also, their sushi was yummy! Highly recommend you visit this wonderful place!

First time trying this place and I'm immediately a fan. I did the happy hour deal of choose any 3 rolls for $15. I did the shrimp tempura, salmon crunch and spicy crunch rolls and they were SO DELICIOUS. Right across the street from where I work too, very convenient. I can't by spending like that all the time 😅 but I will be back!

This place is sooo good! Definitely go for the happy hour! I got 3 rolls for $15 (I thought you had to get 3 for the deal, you don't 😂 I still ate them all though lol) and it was huge portions! My husband got the bulgogi bento box and it was also a huge portion. Great food and the staff were super nice too!

Always excellent. The plum wine and the coco sake....yum!!! And the Bento box was delicious. I also liked how they were willing to make changes to the sushi and not wrap it it seaweed. I want to go back.

가족여행으로 시카고에 와서 엄선하여 고른 식당이예요 친절한 서어비스는 물론이고 입안에서 살살 녹는 맛이 일품이예요 특히 연어초밥은 입안에서 살살 녹아요 가족 모두 식사에 만족했구요 다시 오고 싶은 곳이네요 사장님 번창하세요 기쁨 주셔서 감사해요~~^^

It is a great place to try different varieties of sushi. You can choose to have cold sushi or fried. Quite and no need reservations, reasonable price .

The food was absolutely AMAZING! We ordered the salmon sushi, Mango Tango, and the salmon hand roll — and every dish was so delicious. The server was also incredibly kind and attentive. I would definitely recommend this restaurant!
