Rock Wrap & Roll — a Lincoln Park japanese mainstay. The space has a modern, polished edge. Plating that reflects real attention to detail. Family-run, BYOB. "Everything came out hot, fresh, and fast, and the staff was really friendly and attentive" — Sergio Kestler

🍷BYOB — grab a bottle next door, they'll open it.
🌱Vegan & vegetarian friendly — real options, not one sad pasta.

Delicious food and amazing staff! A few friends and I came in on a Saturday night for sushi and Thai food, and we were promptly greeted by the friendly staff. I enjoyed a warm cup of miso soup and crab rangoon to start—some of the best crab rangoon I’ve had! I ordered the Smashing Pumpkins roll, and it did not disappoint. The fresh, savory flavors of black rice with eel, creamy avocado, slightly sweet pumpkin and bright pops of texture from the tobiko complemented each other perfectly. My friend had the jungle curry with chicken which was perfectly spicy. We enjoyed the lovely jazz-esque playlist, cozy ambiance, and lovely people. I love that they offer creative rolls you can’t find everywhere, and we will definitely be back to try more!

If you want to feel like family, with exceptional service, the best rolls that are easy to modify to your liking this is the spot. This has been our favorite neighborhood sushi spot for years. They call us my name, we get hugs and updates on life every time we come in. The staff remembers our favorite orders, the quality of the food is also so fresh and we can’t wait to come back the next time. The spot was accommodating to being gluten free and dairy free, bringing gf soy sauce and ensuring I didn’t order anything tempura, and making subs for rolls with cream cheese. This spot is BYOB and they have everything you need to enjoy an adult beverage. There’s a corner store right around the corner is you forgot to bring something from home. Overall such a great experience every time and I hope this restaurant continues to thrive!

Always an absolute amazing spot to visit when you have a sushi craving, the strawberry roll is a MUST! The owner is always so friendly and sweet, she remembers all her regulars and is a great time. The pad Thai was also soooo good, can’t wait to try the entire menu!

I was craving sushi and I was in the area and saw this place had great reviews so I had to try it. It was late on a Monday night so I was the only one there, but it was great because I received quick and excellent service and the owner/waitress helped me decide what I should get. I got the white Philly and it tasted so fresh and delicious that I ate it pretty quick. The eggroll was also very good. They have a very large menu so tons of yummy food to choose from! Really stylish space with great music playing too, side street parking also very accessible and it is across from the movie theater so you can see a movie before or after eating!

I had the Super Saiyan roll and it was incredible. The bonito flakes on it dance! You have to try it.

I am forever getting food here before/after I see a movie. This BYOB place not only has great food, but the owner is so nice and truly cares. I loved hearing her story of how the chive dumplings I ordered are the same recipe her mom made her for when she’d come home from school. They were amazing, by the way. Also have to love the adorable Halloween sushi and the amazing sushi roll names. A lot of thought and attention has been put into this place.
