Naoki

Gochisou sama deshita

Great date night spot! Sushi was incredible and the service was amazing. Our waiter knew everything on the menu and made excellent recommendations !

The food was amazing. We came expecting good food but we were blown away by each and every dish. Embarrassed to admit that the fried chicken was also a highlight but the sushi stood on its own. Will definitely be coming back.

The staff was also extremely attentive, knowledgeable, and personable.

Freshest sushi. Beautifully served

Naoki is our favorite sushi in Chicago. We had the best time!

Always delicious and tasty food but our server was really subpar.

This is the best experience ever.
The food is gold star.
The service is top notch.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had chef Naoki’s omakase. It was a lot better than other omakase in Chicago!

Wonderful food and beautiful presentation. Knowledgeable server and cozy atmosphere

Delicious food! Will recommend for a date

My wife and I loved the sushi. It is the best in Chicago and the service was excellent.

Very pleasant staff makes you feel truly welcomed. Incredibly fresh taste of sushi.

Great place, go and get the tuna tacos. Minor miscommunication with the waiter/kitchen. No big deal.

We were there for Chef Naoki’s tuna event. We had every dish that he had prepared especially for this event. It was all better than great and just out of the park FANTASTIC.
Our server Charles is both a pro and charming. Table visits from The Mgr, Bill were most appreciated. My wife & I both remarked how gracious everyone was and that we felt welcomed & appreciated.

This is why we keep returning; fresh, well-prepared food and a top notch group taking care of the guests.

A great evening. Go Naoki!!!!

Our waiter was gone for 20+minutes after explaining the menu. Was nowhere to be seen in the room.

Excellent service, loved the food, great place to take friends!

Food was delicious!

Chef put together some quality fish for me. The Sake selection is decent and their specials were delicious. The Uni was very tasty, the hamachi & kampachi specials were divine and the baby Ika were awesome!!!

Fantastic!

Amazing Nigiris and "Naoki style sashimi". Out of this world. The rolls we good but way too pricey.

Had a great meal at the sushi bar. Lee and Ansen, the chefs, were wonderful hosts. The sushi quality was delicious. Would definitely come back.

Great place for Sushi-love the variety of options and the Gluten Free options are really great!

My husband and I are big fans of Naoki. We were just slightly disappointed on our last visit to find out that there was no grilled fish special that evening. But that won't keep us from going back! We feel it's the best sushi in town.

Naoki was simply outstanding in every way. Best sushi and maki I’ve ever had, gracious servers, quiet atmosphere. All made for a wonderful birthday evening. I’m eager to return on another special occasion and will recommend this restaurant to all of my fellow sushi lovers.

This was a truly great experience. Food was great, service was on point.

Great food but the pacing was terrible on this occasion and several plates of food showed up almost at the same time. Chef needs to better instruct his staff on attention to this detail.

Food was great. Charles (my server) was amazing and took time with each guest. Manager Bill also took interest in each guests’ satisfaction. I would definitely recommend you check this hidden gem out!

A hidden gem! This place has fresh, creative excellent sushi, with good service. It wasn’t the first time we have been here, and brought very good friends that enjoyed it so much, they are already planning on coming back too!

Everything was delicious and beautifully presented.

Amazing meal! The food here is exquisite and the service is to match. Our waiter, Charles, was extremely knowledgeable and we let him guide our meal. This restaurant is impeccably managed with which make it even more pleasurable. Amazing food quality. Not to be missed.

It is a hidden little treasure in the back on the lobby. My husband was more critical of it because the portion sizes are small but the presentation and taste were impeccable. I want to go back to try more on the menu. Chef Naoki cares about his sushi and even the rice is better than other sushi places. Don't go to "binge" on sushi, must be someone who cares about quality!

Fresh and imaginative sushi

Food and service exceptional! Highly recommend for those who are experienced sushi consumers. Quality of food and presentation are now at top of my Chicago sushi recommendations for locals and visitors.

Absolutely love Naoki. We go here for every special occasion and it is easily the best sushi in the city.

Our waiter, Charles was the BEST! Everything was delicious and the service was fantastic. Can't wait to go back!

Our visit to Naoki was exceptional, and left my girlfriend and I very pleased with our choice to come here for the first time. First, the ambiance is very cozy, and was great for date night. There was one larger group in there, and they were a bit noisy, but I would guess this isn't typical. Regardless, we were not deterred. The service was fantastic. Our server was great, and I don't really have anything but praise for him. He definitely was a big part of making our experience great. Finally, the food was absolutely incredible. We had one of the sashimi plates, a few rolls, one of the chef's specials (sake...soemthing...it was salmon collar cooked on a robata (sp?) grill), tuna tacos, and the gyoza. It was all very good. We'll definitely be back.

Naoki is always amazing! By far, it is our favorite gem in Lincoln Park and our go to date night! Love the ambiance, love the sushi and love the serving staff!

Our waiter failed to put in all the food we ordered. After they gave us our food that he did put in for us, they gave us our check and seemed to want us to vacate our table. Good fish but the experience left a bad taste.

Came for dinner with my sister. Had a really perfect time. George, our server, couldn’t have been more on point. Nigiri is exceptional.

The fried chicken and nigiri were amazing and I would highly recommend. It is a bit pricey though.
