Miku Sushi
Ansen Tan · 14 Google reviewsMiku Sushi — japanese in Lincoln Square. Worth ordering a drink, because the bar holds its own, and well-priced. "The tonkatsu ramen was phenomenal, the broth was rich and creamy, and the noodles were so delicious" — Ansen Tan [$$, patio]

“The reviews of Miku Sushi seem quite polarized. Many fellow Local Guides gave a 5-star review, while some others gave it a 1-star. I decided to check it out myself. I ordered from the dinner menu, nothing from the happy hour menu: scallops (wrapped in bacon), sashimi ume, house salad, and a glass of sake. The scallops are so delicious that I will have it every time I come here. Sashimi is as fresh as it can be, The presentation was beautiful (see photos). Underneath the fish is a big chunk of ice to keep the fish fresh. The waitresses are attentive, courteous, wearing a smile all the time. I cannot ask for more. I will come here again many times.”
“One of my favorite spots for sushi. Garlic edamame is amazing and can personally vouch for the Spider roll. They also have great lunch deals.”
“Excellent sushi selection! Everything we have at Miku is delicious. The staff is very friendly and helpful.”
“Great happy hour deals! Yummy sushi & fun martinis. We had a blast here!”
“Good food that comes with good service. I think my only gripe would be the noise level. It was so loud in there we could barely hear our own conversation we were having amongst ourselves. But other than that it was a nice culinary experience. Cheers!”
“The food here is great, but lacking in certain areas. We had the seafood ceviche to start, which was extremely sour and vinegary (and also pretty small portioned), but overall the seafood itself was wonderful. The tonkatsu ramen was phenomenal, the broth was rich and creamy, and the noodles were so delicious. My biggest complaint is that there wasn’t enough noodles; I was super hungry when I ordered and probably slurped all my noodles up in under a minute. I even had to order an extra portion of noodles to fulfill my appetite. I can’t quite put my finger on it but the poke bowl was just okay. It came well-proportioned, but the salmon and tuna felt a little warm and the entire bowl tasted a little under-seasoned.”
“Went for a happy hour lunch. The outdoor and indoor vibe was great, but the staff felt somewhat unwelcoming, though this might be different for others. The rolls were okay, nothing special, and definitely not fancy. The fish and imitation crab were dry.”
“Beyond average sushi, but they have such a good rating on here. I felt the sushi was too saucy. We also tried to order a roll and they said they were out… how? Weird like cross it off the menu or share that up front. We came here on a Saturday at 6pm and had made a reservation online for 5 people. I don’t think we needed the reservation because there was plenty of seating. We got the shumai, fried pork skins, and three rolls. I also had a martini that was way too sweet and not worth it. It took a normal time to get all the food but it was all luke warm. They also do not have a kids menu.”
“The food was good, other times I have visited this place, today doesn't look fresh... But the service is horrible!!! My food was ready I can see my food from my table for more than 10 minutes the girls were " busy" doing other chores... We are the only table at the restaurant, the other left 10 minutes after we arrived, it is unacceptable there are two servers and none can be alert about the plates that are ready? Unfortunately it's not the first time this happens to me in this place, I use to like the food very much, definitely I never going back.”
“Absolutely disgusting. I ordered through uber eats and upon arrival the receipt had hair stapled to it. When I opened up my food, there was hair in the food as well. Not just a strand but several strands. I called the restaurant and Niki (is the name the woman gave me) said they would refund me as clearly the food was not edible. This was on Oct 11 and now it is Oct 16. I have not received a refund. I advise for you to not order from this place. My pictures show the proof of the disgusting encounter I had.”
