MIND BLOWN. Best sushi in Chicago hands down. Amazing Japanese cuisine, beautiful presentation, delicious sake, and incredible, personalized service (I have several dietary restrictions). The unagi was to-die-for and every bite from their menu was unique and very special. Very knowledgeable and accommodating staff, and cozy atmosphere. I will be coming back here many, many more times.... I can't wait to see what's next up on the menu!
