Jellyfish8th best sushi in the country?!We heard that Jellyfish had the 8th best sushi in the country and it lived up to its reputation. Add to that a great atmosphere starting the moment you walk in the door downstairs, the pleasant and helpful service and amazing cocktails and Jellyfish is a winner!
Highly recommend!5/20/2013 12:00:00 AMI had reservations for 9:30pmI had reservations for 9:30pm I was late in 20 mins so I couldn't get a table until after 11 pm. I thought its a little to much time to wait .5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat experience at JellyfishI loved my visit to Jellyfish - will definitely return. Specialty rolls were fantastic - Kiss of Fire and Black Diamond. Martinis were great. Service was great.5/4/2013 12:00:00 AMOverall, loved it. Only complaintOverall, loved it. Only complaint was we were seated at the worst table in the kitchen area. Disappointing.4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Find!!!!The sushi at Jelly Fish is excellent. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the ambiance especially since our reservation was for midnight. No issues with getting a table! The restaurant is on the second floor and the entry is rather small so be on the lookout. The dining experience was excellent. The evening we went there was a live band playing and the music was wonderful. Dinner and dancing in a very nice atmosphere. As the restaurant closed the valet had our car waiting at the entrance as we exited the restaurant. Very nice!
We recommend giving the restaurant a try.4/19/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food but aggressive serviceThe food here is quite good! All of the rolls I picked were so delicious and the seaweed salad is must. I wish the service was a bit less aggressive though. At one point I felt like going from the bar to my table was an inconvenience to the staff because I wanted my tab to follow me. Outstanding service should start with the mindset that we don't want to interrupt a customer's experience.4/13/2013 12:00:00 AMDoes not upset. Fantastic!The ambiance inside is vibrant. Lots of electric blue light mix with royal and white decorations and backgrounds, a very modern feel. Service staff is dressed in trendy fashions of blue and are friendly, efficient, and helpful. The sushi rolls are some of the best I've ever had! Traditional and signature rolls give plenty of options. I highly recommend the lobster/mango roll, Dragon roll, and Philadelphia roll.4/6/2013 12:00:00 AMEverything was great fromEverything was great from start to finish. Must check this restaurant out!!3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMTasty, thoughtful, and great priceThe food was delicious. Perfectly prepared and well presented.
What I especially liked about this place is that the service was as fantastic as the food. They were courteous and thoughtful.
I thought the food was probably under-priced for Chicago, which is always a great thing for the wallet.
My ONLY gripe is that at 6'4", the table they had me sit at in the atrium was really low. I had to sit with one leg out because my knees were pushing the table up. It was a little weird. So I could see how tall people might be uncomfortable.3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMI went to Jellyfish on a SaturdayI went to Jellyfish on a Saturday to meet two friends for a 9pm dinner reservation. The hostess was very personable and we waited at the bar for our 3rd guest and when she arrived the table still wasn't ready. We didn't get seated until almost an hour after our res. but we were enjoying ourselves so much we didn't notice. The manager stopped by our table and was very apologetic and gave us a complimentary shot. We had the edamame and soft shell crab to start them several of the sushi rolls: kiss of fire, pink flower, California, Philadelphia, Mexican, and fire dragon roll. The food was great, every employee we interacted with was energetic and pleasant, and the ambiance can't be beat!! You may have to wait but its worth it!3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMJellyfish exceeded my expectationsJellyfish exceeded my expectations tenfold.
