“Every time I go there, they take a bit too long for the order, so this time I decided to order to go. I don't know the names of each role by memory. When I showed the picture of what I wanted to the server, she didn't know either, didn't want to ask the chef, and kept pushing me to order a popular roll instead.“
“Last time I had sushi was well over 15 years ago. Times change, appetite, and eating habits change so here I am. My wife enjoys sushi and has been here a few times and enjoys their rolls. I do enjoy food in the teriyaki family and I get this fix at a few other restaurants in town. The interior of the restaurant is inviting and it was strange being back in the former Peapod restaurant location. We ordered the crab ragoon, gyoza, chicken teriyaki roll, scorpion roll, Godzilla roll, and the beef teriyaki entree. Both appetizers were good but pretty standard. I tried a few rolls and it's still not for me. I believe the seaweed wrap is what I don't like. The filling is good though. My wife enjoyed every bite of it. The beef teriyaki comes with salad, rice, and miso soup. I don't particularly like miso soup but this one was slightly different in a good way. I enjoyed the simple salad as well. Now when I ordered the beef I wasn't asked how I wanted it cooked which is not unusual. When I received the beef it was too blue in my opinion. I'll eat beef anyway outside of raw but typically I like my beef medium. The sauce and vegetables were good and I still ate the beef. For drinks I stuck with water but my wife had a mango smoothie that was quite tasty. The employees were attentive and definitely hustling so I appreciate that. I would go back and get the chicken teriyaki (hopefully it's not pink) and let my wife enjoy the sushi rolls. 4 stars because everyone I know that has come here for the sushi raves about it.“
“this was our third time at kaido, and it never disappoints! the fish is so fresh, the sauces are delicate but flavorful, and the rolls are amazing. and the interior is cozy and beautifully decorated.we've been to many sushi restaurants in chicago and suburbs, and kaido is definitely one of the best, most creative, and freshest sushi in the area. this has become our go-to sushi place, and we highly recommend it!our favorites are: kenchin jinro soup, aloha roll, hamachi truffle roll, and the hamachi carpaccio in the omakase. the omakase was also amazing and filling. honestly, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu!“
“Don't sleep on this place that's on the other side of O-Hare. The sushi & sashimi are fantastic, everything was mouthwatering from the fatty tuna to the sea urchin apps, and of course the rolls, we had some classic rolls, as well as signature ones with tuna and mango and softshell crab rolls. (and the kids loved the donkatsu, thankfully they haven't discovered sushi, yet!)“
“We ordered sushi for take out from here on a whim (after our regular place turned out so busy on Good Friday that they disconnected their phone and turned off online ordering). They have a great selection of maki, both basics and specialty rolls at very fair prices. Edamame was piping hot when we got it home. We found a nice surprise in our order - they had included 2 ice cream desserts with a hand written note to have a good night on the box. Really sweet touch. Everything was fresh and yummy - I also feel like the specialty roll portions were very sizeable. Will definitely come back again to try some of the bento meals and udon noodles! Thanks :)“
“My boyfriend and I love sushi and have tried places over the country. This was hands down the best sushi we have ever had. The owner was so kind and even gave us a special role to just try! The salmon was amazing. My favorite roll was The Grinch and his was That roll. We will be back again soon!“
“I cannot rave enough about Kinta Sushi. I have been a patron for over 15 years and no matter where I've moved around I'll make the drive to get there! Dining in is always a great experience. The most friendly staff I have ever encountered. The quality of sushi is always top tier and the price matches. Dining in is always comfortable and clean. Presentation is nice and a fair mix of traditional and modern twists. I also frequently pick up to go and they have never missed a thing in my orders. Not only that but they always label the containers which I appreciate so much. My go to order always includes the stuffed mushrooms. And I've always been a big fan of the green bay roll! Their sashimi always impresses me as well. I am just a very satisfied and happy long time customer and I will be as long as they are in operation.“
“First time going here and I couldn't be more impressed, the restraunt is very clean and the staff are nice. The food is fresh and very good. Got the salmon obsession sushi burrito and it was very good! Can't wait to try their other dishes.“
“Well, I came here for many times and didn't have a chance to write a review for this restaurant. It is located in a small plaza right off Higgins and Lively. The staff were friendly and quick service. One thing I love about this restaurant is the daily specials just $12. Every day they have different offers for their daily specials. The food was worth compared with the prices you paid. I would love to come back here to try their daily specials.“
“The beef tatami was excellent, lamb chops & calamari were good, yellowtail was ok...rice pot didn't have much flavorSteve, server had excellent interaction. Support staff was ok...plate change didn't happen unless we requested and was very slow, table never got manicured throughout$300 spend on party of 2“
“We visited this restaurant for my wife's birthday. The atmosphere was ok with attempts to make it look authentic Japanese. There's a small fish pond in the middle of the restaurant and cozy sunken booths to get that seated on the floor vibe. We came for sushi and were not disappointed. It was all fresh and seemed very authentic. Many places make sushi but Daruma's sushi seemed somewhat different... stepped up. The fish pieces on the Nigiri were larger. We tried some different pieces and there were Maki combinations that were fresh and different than the norm. My only complaint about the place was that it was either under construction or was just a bit run down. When you first walk in there were things piled into the corner of the bar area, there was a space heater in the middle of the room we were seated in to warm it up, and the bathroom was very rundown and in need of a makeover... fresh paint and an overall cleanup. The place needed a good dusting. Aside from the cosmetic issues, the food was excellent and well made. For my wife's birthday, they brought her out some green tea cheesecake that was very good. It was a nice end to a nice evening.“
“The sushi offerings at Chef Soon are nothing short of extraordinary. Each piece is a masterpiece, meticulously crafted with precision and passion. The fish is fresh, the rice perfectly seasoned, and the flavors harmonize flawlessly with every bite. Whether you’re a sushi connoisseur or a novice, the variety caters to all palates, promising something delectable for everyone.The service at Chef Soon is exemplary, especially Grace The staff is attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about sushi, eager to guide you through the menu and ensure your dining experience is nothing short of exceptional. Their dedication to customer satisfaction truly sets them apart.Ask for Grace!!!“
“I had just left a review somewhere else about how I've never had a restaurant that served both ramen and sushi where the ramen was actually decent, but there's a first time for everything, right?The restaurant itself is quaint, but comfortable and has a nice ambience. I sat right in front of the sushi making area so I had a nice little show while I ate. The server was nice and took my order quickly and checked in on me enough.I had ordered both a miso ramen and a couple pieces of tamago nigiri. Funny enough, while my usual complaint is the ramen at a sushi restaurant, today it's more of a small complaint about the sushi! The sushi itself didn't taste bad at all. It was well-made, in fact. My only "complaint" was that the tamago was still very cold from the fridge, but still really tasty. It didn't affect my overall experience.The ramen was great and the presentation was really nice. I'm really fond of miso ramen in general and they made it really well here.Noodles: The noodles are thinner, springy, and chewy. They were pleasant to eat and tasted amazing. They had a nice neutral taste that went well with the broth.Broth: The broth was rich and savory and had a good miso flavor. It was served perfectly hot.Toppings: The pork tasted like it was marinated well and was nicely braised. The egg wasn't marinated in anything and was a plain soft boiled egg. The bamboo shoots also tasted good on their own. I also enjoyed the corn last in the broth. Everything worked well both separately and together.Overall, I was very pleased with Lili Sushi & Ramen! I'll definitely be coming back to enjoy the other bowls of ramen offered here!Vegetarian options: They have vegetable ramen“
“Absolutely delicious Japanese food. You can order at the counter (they’ll bring it to you) or you can order on your phone and leave a tab open (and close out at the end). We got a meal set with shio mackerel and katsu with ponzu, udon, edamame, and a large katsu curry. Everything was delicious and authentic. The prices are great for the portions and quality. If this place were near us in the city, we’d be in trouble. #curryeveryday“
“We came here once before. This visit was during lunch. We didn’t know they had a lunch special starting at $9.95 depending on the protein you select. This is one of the most delicious Thai food restaurants I visited and I had visited many. We ordered the pekimao with beef and the of Thai with chicken. Everything was done very nicely with flavor and not over cooked. The drunken noodle was a little spicy but within my tolerance. They also add small appetizers such as egg rolls and fried tofu which makes the meal even more worth paying. Everything was great. I wish they would update their floors but other than that it was great!“
“I love Wasabi as it is always neat and clean, the restaurant and the atmosphere is hospitable. I mostly order delivery but their service is top notch and always timely and the food is excellent everytime. I recommend to anyone who wants to try this kind of food to try Wasabi first and i promise you'll be delighted as i always am.“
“This has quickly become my 'go to' place for sushi. I've had quite a variety of their rolls, and everything was quite good! In-person dining is best described as intimate owing to the small size of the restaurant. If you're claustrophobic, this might be off putting. Seems clean; a bit heavy on dark wood. Service was efficient, though the woman that served our table during my first visit seemed overwhelmed (I believe she was the sole server). Poor thing! My preference is to order for takeout so I can pig out in private at home. If you love the spicy kick of wasabi as I do, don't hesitate to ask for extra--they'll readily compliment your order with more. Overall, good quality sushi in terms of sizes of the rolls and taste, at price points that won't cause considerable angst. I can, and do, recommend Abishari with great ease.“
“This place is legit. We came here for the Korean Sashimi experience. I wasn't expecting much since this place is in a pretty unassuming strip mall but the quality of the fish is what did it for me. I believe the owner buys an entire tuna and expertly slices different parts himself. I had the best tasting sashimi here. And as much fish as I have had in my life I found myself asking the waitress what part of the tuna I was eating. First time trying Tuna jaw meat and it was astounding. The amount of toro grade tuna that was served amazed me. Service was a bit slow but with high quality fresh fish that they serve all was forgiven. 5 stars all the way.“
“Hidden Gem… my sister, daughter and I were out shopping when we drove past this restaurant. Everyone was so welcoming and accommodating. Everything was delicious and amazingly prepared. This place was a 10/10 and we can’t wait to return.“

“Royce chocolate and cookies is located inside of mitsuwa along with several high end vendors and shops. Royce doesn't disappoint. Paris was extremely helpful and went over all of the offerings that Royce had. I ended up getting the variety pack because I couldn't make up mind. Great gifts for the adventurous tongue and even for someone with a sweet tooth. The have adorable pink gift bags to make it for a quick pick up. I absolutely recommend the fromage blanc chips, they are delicious and daring at the same time!“
“First time here last week and last night (2/23/2024), we came back and dined with friends. There were 9 of us in the group. Food was delish! We had diff types of sushi, ramen, gyoza, edamame, and Taiyaki with vanilla ice cream for dessert. All were delish and brought to our table quickly. The place was clean and staff were efficient. We sat on the part of the restaurant where you sit on the floor while you eat. We enjoyed the authentic Japanese dining set-up. They have various Japanese beer and wine, and dessert options as well. Prices are slightly higher than other Japanese restaurants nearby (Ari Sushi in Des Plaines & Sushi Nikko in Arlington Heights) but we can deal with it because of the efficient service. I think this becoming one of our fave sushi places.“
“Hamds-down my absolute favorite sushi restaurant in the western suburbs of Chicago. The Asian Tacos and Crazy Jalapeño are a must for starters and I've yet to have a specialty roll I didn't love, to include a few off-menu rolls. Be sure to ask your server about those. Speaking of the staff, very friendly and equally attentive. The speed of service is also above par. Nabuki is certainly a spot worth visiting the next time you're in Hinsdale.“
“We tried BNK for the first time last night, and could not have been happier! The mini crab & veggie spring rolls were delicious (we fought over the last ones) and the Spicy Peanut Sauce dish with chicken was so good I licked the plate :)“
“Service and atmosphere was nice. Sushi was tasty. I liked the volcano. I also enjoyed the appetizers. I tried the Misso soup, the calamari and the veggies roles. They also have individual sushi pieces which I wish I noticed them first before I order the other stuff. It is very very price. I paid rounded 41 dollars just for my self. 28 rounded all you can eat which is 27 something dollars plus a drink. I order tea and tip. Taxes were rounded 4 dollars. 40 for 1 person al you can eat buffet too expensive. Some sushi was no real sushi but it was tasty.“
“The only negative thing I will say about it is the music was turned up a little too loud.Aside from that, everything we had was incredible. Our 8 year old daughter inhaled her chicken gyoza & chicken teriyaki rolls. We ordered the King Lobster, Mango Tango, Boston & Philadelphia rolls and they were all delicious. Will definitely remember this place the next time we're here from WI.“
“Great food & amazing service! My coworkers go regularly for lunch & I joined them for the first time last week. Went again today with my family & the waitress even remembered my order. She is so kind! She went above & beyond & took the initiative to hold the door for my elderly mother & help her both going in & leaving while I parked the car & brought it around.“
“While it's a wee little place that often isn't crowded, the staff is on the ball and the food is better than you might expect. They do a serious take out business for a reason and their prices are reasonable especially for the fresh food.“

“My new favorite sushi place! The service is super kind and welcoming. They have such a wide variety of sushi as well as other dishes- all at an incredibly fair price! We ordered a few appetizers, rolls, and nigiri. Everything was so tasty and fresh! And even came out quickly!“
“I'm delighted with this place, I was passing by and stopped in for dinner. Very tasty rolls names “Best west “ and sushi eel and salmon, the fish is very fresh. I would definitely come back here, price plus quality, decent friendly staff, and plus it’s very tasty. cozy atmosphere, music playing ♥️ ?“
“Had the best experience dining here with coworkers. Jess was our server and was warm and welcoming, offering suggestions and pairings, and had the beat timing- we never felt rushed or interrupted. The martinis and crafted cocktails were as delicious as they were beautiful. Appetizers were delicious and the portion size was great- don't miss the brussel sprouts! Now the sushi... wow- creative and meticulously prepared rolls and sashimi with a menu that has something for everyone-- and the vegan options are incredible! Can't wait to come back. Thanks for a great night out and a. fantastic service experience.“
“This is a great price for the all you can eat. The rolls were delicious and the fried rice was the best fried rice I’ve ever had. I love that the appetizers and soup and salad are included in the all you can eat. I’m glad we came out it was so good I’ll definitely be back.“
“Let's start with the service and the atmosphere. When you enter, the atmosphere is warm, relaxed, the employees are cordial and attentive. We continue with the food, the Suschi is incredible from the presentation to the flavor, my taste buds exploded when I felt the exquisite mix of flavors.“
“We went there last night and got a take out order. I love Chinese food. This food is the best ! The staff is very friendly and polite . The food is so good that this is My go to restaurant when I’m in Elmhurst from now on. I am very delighted that we stopped in .“
“Beautiful dining room with a unique raised floor with glass covering the sand.Sushi was ok. Lots of items but all very similar. Expensive!The entry does not have a vestibule and we were blasted with cold air each time the door opened.Server Noe was friendly and efficient“
“the food here is amazing!! they made an adjustment for me because i'm a vegetarian and made tofu in a dish served with meat. i also ordered a lot of things spicy and they did not fail! super quick & sweet people. i will be coming back“
“I ordered a bowl for pickup through their website. I chose crab sticks for my main protein. Extra $1 each to add avocado and crabstick salad. It was delicious and the sushi rice was hot. Bowl was ready at their estimated time. My only complaint is that they forgot 3 of the ingredients that were written on the receipt: pineapple, mango, sweet onion. There was no extra charge for these so I wasn't too upset about it but forgetting 3 items in the bowl is kind of a lot. Next time I'll order there inside the restaurant.“
“Lu’s was recommended and we couldn’t be more pleased. A great choice and nothing disappointed. Crab Rangoon was delicious, pot stickers were dense and fill of flavor and the Mongolian beef simply the best I have ever had. There was a sweetness to the gravy and I can’t wait to have leftovers today.“
“The food was really great, huge portions for a good price. We did have to wait a while even though we had a reservation. It felt a little chaotic, but we did have 12 in our party, so probably that was the reason. They are super busy, give them a lot of credit handling so many in a small space. I do plan to go back, maybe takeout, though.“
“Stopped in with our 1 year old for sushi and everything was great!! Super fast service and family friendly. After leaving to get in our car, we found out that our car died, and the restaurant owner helped us jump our car! Above and beyond service. Thank you!“
“I've been going to sushi nest for years, this place is still amazing, ordered to go recently so that's where the picture is from, BUT EVEN TO GO IT WAS SO GOOD, definitely prepared with love, thank you guys!Top left is forest roll, under it is the red dragon, the one with the small leafy garnish is called four seasons, below that the Godzilla, below that the king crab roll, and we ordered a sashimi dinner on the side as well with the edamame“
“Every single thing we ordered was delicious and nothing was left uneaten! From the crab Rangoon, to the chicken friend rice and all 6 sushi rolls- it was delicious! A great atmosphere from the moment you arrived. Love the warm towels and nice chopsticks! Definitely recommend and kid friendly for how nice it is!“
“I would give this 10 stars if I could - The best sushi in the western suburbs! The quality is always AMAZING and the service while dining in is also incredible. The prices are so good for the quality of rolls. Some of our favorites are the Godzilla, XMas, Cubs, Ogden Ave.“
“We tried food at the dining place at the back of the store. It was satisfactory.Vegetarian options: This is a japanese food dining place, so either it is tofu items, soups, vegetable rolls, boiled beans, friend vegetable or meat (salmon, chicken, pork etc.)So you can choose decently.Parking: Enought parking space because this is located in a strip mall.“
“This is a revolving sushi bar where you pull your sushi off a conveyor belt. It's fun to see all the different types go past, and I'd say the novelty is the main reason to eat here. The sushi is fine; not the best I've had but not the worst either. The atmosphere is pretty lively/noisy.I've now eaten here twice and I found the sushi better the second time than the first (last summer). I could not tell you what I had the first time, but the second I had two types of eel (both delicious), salmon (fine), and inari/fried tofu (so-so). Do be careful because the plates can add up quick.“
“I love this restaurant! The sushi and other menu items are always tasty and good quality. The staff is nice and very helpful for first timers. The meal can get expensive really fast as they charge by the plate, so come prepared for that. The only downside is that it can be exceptionally loud , especially when they are busy as it is a small space and there a lot of people in it. The kura bots are cute but play a loud song to let you know they are coming or near, as a safety thing.“
“I love the rolls here and all you can eat price is pretty good! Only problem are the rolls that contain cream cheese.. boy do they put A LOT of cream cheese in it - to the point where all I could taste was cream cheese. Other than that, lovely sushi place!“
“OMG best little place in carol steam, I'm here Sunday night no one is here and I am wondering why, I had a drink called sunshine, it's pineapple, orange, strawberry juices is delicious. I had crab legs, corn, potato, eggs, salad came with meal, the dressing on salad was very different but soft and delicate, the crab was very clean, sweet and plenty. ordered the cajin house, mild still had a kick of spice but perfect.If I could give this place a 10 star it would get an 11. Fabulous delightful very quiet, server's was not a pest, but cleaned up right away. I still don't know why it's not packed. This is a must go to if your in carol stream IllinoisParking: Plenty of pull in spotsKid-friendliness: Tv, kids menue“
“Excited to have a quick date night at the new ramen spot! The lights were warm and just right. They clearly figured out a way to dim their lights (or turn off some of them). The ramen was delicious! The broth was creamy and seasoned well. Definitely not watery or bland as previous reviews suggested. Must have tweaked the recipes. Ramen typically isn't like Pho with a lot of broth. After the ramen, we were actually pretty full. We each also got a roll and an appetizer and struggled to finish everything! My rainbow roll was fresh and done well. My Caucasian husband liked his Wheaton roll. The tuna appetizer had a nice bite to it from a slight sear. Servers were very nice and attentive. We had a great time!“
“Absolutely out of his ?! Best Sushi I've ever had... The service is absolutely wonderfu!!!. This restaurant has a very homey vibe and the staff is very welcoming. They have the Christmas spirit, well decorated and I can't hardly wait to come back! A+++++Kid-friendliness: Super patient with my 6yr old daughter with tons of curious questions. I can't speak enough about the outstanding service and welcoming atmosphere!“
