Sushi Kushi Toyo

“Sushi kushi remains the best and most authentic sushi and Japanese cuisine in the northern suburbs.”

Sushi kushi remains the best and most authentic sushi and Japanese cuisine in the northern suburbs. I have been eating here a long time, but decided to update my review. The menu is very extensive. I still probably haven’t tried half the items. The sushi rolls are creative without being crazy. Sushi kushi is one of the few places that will have fish far beyond the usual tuna and salmon and eel. We also like the skewers though I still have no idea why they call them kushi instead of yakitori. Service is good and patient with explaining all the dishes and specials.

Our family has been coming here for over a decade; at least a couple of times/month. Every single time the food has been consistently great and the sushi is fresh. The staff know exactly who I am when I am there and always get the “Red Carpet” treatment.

“We had a very good first experience at Sushi Kushi Toyo.”

We had a very good first experience at Sushi Kushi Toyo! We have made an effort to try as many restaurants that serve Japanese Curry as possible, and this one did not disappoint! The curry sauce was savory with a touch of spice. The chicken katsu was fried perfectly, crisp on the outside and juicy chicken on the inside. I will say that I missed the typical addition of fukujinzuke (pickled vegetables) with the curry and next time I would ask for a side of potato salad or shredded cabbage to balance the meal. We also ordered sushi - Double Dragon and Nagoya. Both were fantastic and we would definitely order those rolls again. We're already looking forward to our next visit!

“The Japanese curry with pork katsu and rice is the best!”

The Japanese curry with pork katsu and rice is the best!! Seen the dish in anime and always wanted to try it and boy this place doesn't disappoint. Mango icecream (sherbert) was great as well. The lunch pricing is fair and the waiter we had was great. A must try and favorite of mine and I don't live in IL.

“This restaurant has been around long time.”

This restaurant has been around long time. One of our friends and family’s favorite sushi restaurant. The interior has been expanded 2-3 times, so there’s plenty of seating indoors, which were full one Saturday night we were there. The sushi and kitchen food are all consistently delicious every time we have them. There’s so many favorites from spicy kinoko, buta kimchi, ika butter, karage from hot appetizers, and the carpaccio is a must have! Their sushi and sashimi are always fresh. What makes this place special is that most of the sushi bar and kitchen employees have been here since basically the beginning, and thats why you can tell that the food is always original. Annie, the front person, is always friendly and makes this place feels like eating in your relative’s home.

“The sushi was fresh and amazing.”

The sushi was fresh and amazing! Will definitely come back. The waitress was super nice and helped us when we didn’t know what to order. She showed us the picture menu. She even told us that the sushi bar was getting busy so if we want to order we should order it now so we can get it quicker.

“We went in for there lunch special.”

We went in for there lunch special. I really wanted katsu and I got the pork katsu. It was crunchy but not dry. The katsu sauce went well with it. The salad and the dressing were an appropriate accompaniment. It was so good I even stole two pieces of katsu from my friend!
