13 Best Japanese Restaurants near Lake In The Hills

“Had a wonderful dinner with 4 of us tonight, our first time here. Impressed by the creativity of the rolls. Our favorites were the Oshinko and Cucumber roll for me, Carribean for my son in law, the Crab Rangoon roll, Dragon roll, and more. Tempura was very good appetizer. Only issue was in the drinks. Had the peach iced tea which was a Pure Leaf Low Sugar Tea bottle, so it had stevia in it which tastes terrible to me. I wish we had known when we ordered. We WILL be back again!“

“Delicious food and the outdoor seating is great! They changed our reservation to outdoor when I asked because it was too loud inside. It does get very busy and the staff seemed a bit overwhelmed, but the service was still really good and we didn't mind waiting a bit longer since the food is great! Highly recommend for a fun date night or get-together.“

“The food is always fresh & excellent. They have plenty of appitizers, entrees, and there are some food choices that are not raw too. There is something for everyone. Our family is never disappointed in our selections. Servers are always attentive and nice. It's a nice atmosphere inside. It's our favorite sushi restaurant.Parking: There is also more parking in back of the restaurant. There are a lot of tables inside“

“Been here several times and always great service. They may take a bit of time to get to your table because it's always busy and they will get to your table. Be patient for the sushi lol it's worth the wait . All rolls are good and appetizers as well. I like to order tobiko roll and put the fish eggs on each roll lol . Enjoy your meal and buy a souvenir waving solar cat they have a ton of styles .“

“First time dining here since the ownership changed and I'll definitely be back. Restaurant is spacious, comfortable and clean. We came Friday for lunch and tried their lunch specials which come with soup. I tried the Orange Shrimp (pictured), Sushi Platter and Beef with Mixed Vegetables. Both the sushi and Chinese dishes were fresh and flavorful. I ordered the hot & sour soup with my platter which is one way I gauge the authenticity & quality of a Chinese restaurant and was pleasantly surprised. The soup and dishes we ordered reminded me of my parent's restaurant which they ran for over 30 years. There are very few restaurants serving quality Chinese dishes in the Northwest suburbs so come out and support this restaurant.“

“Great place if you want quality good sushi any day. Liam is always our surver and we rate him 5+ stars. Thx WOOW Kid-friendliness: Servers always take care of the kids there with above beyond kindness and they go extra mile with there drinks, food and treats.“

“Good local Chinese take out place. The only critique would be to to change the sesame chicken recipe because it looked and tasted exactly like the orange chicken with a few sesame seeds sprinkled on top. Sesame chicken meat was tough too, we were disappointed with that dish. Otherwise we will be back to try more things off the menu.“

“My new favorite restaurant for Thai food! My husband and I have been there twice for lunch and were not disappointed. The food is fresh, flavorful and delicious. Service is polite and prompt. Restaurant is clean. Prices are reasonable. The jalapeño bomb appetizer is a must try!“

“Chef Ceaser was a blast! We enjoyed our meals and come here often. Prices have increased and it seems we get less food each time we come in, at least compared to our neighbors at the table. Places is always busy and no matter a reservation or not it’s always a wait in the crowded entry so be prepared for that. Go closer to closing time for a better environment“

“Great place and food is very good depending what you get. Do not get their chicken is only thing I don't like from here. They need to have more than 1 server though because poor lady works her butt off while she is alone. Common occurrence so please be patient with the waitress you have.“

“It's the hubby's birthday..he was in the mood for tempura.. so we stopped in here. Service was fast and friendly.. answered any questions we had. We ordered crab ragoons, pot stickers, hot tempura plate with shrimp and white rice.. he ordered tempura vegtables and shrimp plate with fried rice. We also had the meso soup and house salad.. Wow..it was all delicious. Stop in..you won't be sorry.“

“The food was good. My boyfriend and I went for my birthday and were college athletes, so I would have liked a little more food. The other people at our table needed boxes though. The order for us was noodles, rice, meat, vegetables, which was a little odd but it’s okay. The guy wasn’t as fun as I would have liked.“

“After nearly 8 hours on the road from Pittsburgh, we were absolutely starving to death walked into this wonderful restaurant cheerfully greeted pampered by the serving staff and fed a most amazing dinner of fresh sushi. Could not be more pleased“
