   The food was great, service was excellent - super quick and friendly! Noise a bit louder than I would have liked but still very enjoyable

   We had a chaotic service experience here. Multiple dishes we ordered were forgotten, service was slow and inattentive, restaurant as noisy, food was forgettable, and our table was not ready when we arrived. Without the table ready, there were nowhere for us to comfortably be seated in the meantime. I wouldn’t come here again.

   My wife and I arrived 45 minutes early, we were celebrating our anniversary. We went downstairs for a drink, It was a cool fun environment down there! Good vibes! After the drinks, we went upstairs to the host stand for our reservation. They sat us at a table upstairs where the the vibes are much different, it reminded me of a hotel lobby with the chairs and TV mounted on the wall, I much rather would have ate on the main floor where the lighting was great and it also had great vibes! The woman who brought us to our table ended up having to clean it off while we waited, making trips back and fourth clearing glasses and plates. they made it a big deal out of the situation when they could have been sly about it. Food was good, waitress was very slow! 15 minutes for our first cocktail! We were not impressed, this was our second time being her and we have great service the time before, on the main floor.

    The food was amazing but the service was horrible. The waitress forgot to put part of our order in. We waited 2 hours to get one of our rolls and some rice. If it wasn’t for the food quality I would have rated this lower just because of the service.

    One of the best experiences I’ve had restaurant-wise in a while. The attention to detail regarding one of the members birthday was immaculate and the food (especially the small plates and sushi) was second to none.

    They add an extra “employee benefit” charge to see if you’ll pay it. They remove if you ask. They also charge 12% sales tax even though it’s supposed to be 10.5%. We asked and she said normally it’s 25% sales tax but they discounted it for us to 12%. Food was good but overall the meal was over priced for what you get.

    Our server was painfully show and took forever to greet us and even longer to bring us our drink order. I find that totally disappointing with such an expensive restaurant. Servers /staff were all over the place, so lack of service is no excuse. And a 3% surcharge added to help pay medical expenses? R they kidding? Boka Group should be able to swing helping their employees pay this expanse

    Amazing food and service, highly recommend. Being able to try feshly grated real wasabi root was such a unique experience. Expensive, but the quality is there to justify it. The fish quality may be the best I've had in the US.

    Very good Japanese restaurant, the ambiance is really cozy and the playlist is great! The food is very good, but not the best Japanese I’ve ever had for what we paid for. Still I would go again and would recommend. We were celebrating, and I was glad we chose Momotaro !

    My husband and I celebrated our anniversary here - as it has been a long-time favorite spot of ours, even before marriage and parenthood. The sushi is, in our opinion, the best in the city. We recently moved to the suburbs, and traveled back into Chicago specifically to eat here. We sat at the sushi counter for the first time, and enjoyed watching the chefs create amazing dishes as we dined on the most amazing sushi in Chicago. We were treated to Prosecco and dessert by the staff in honor of our anniversary celebration. I can’t wait to return.

    To start we made a reservation on open table. When we arrived we requested a booth and where told there where none. When we sat we noticed there where two empty. We asked again and where told they where very busy. The whole time we ate they averaged 2-3 open booths… Drinks watery, wine list unimpressive and high for having nothing overly noticeable. Edamame unseasoned, Miso soup good, sushi nothing memorable.. Spanish octopus dry so dry and little char. Rice bowl very bland chicken cook well. Spaghetti spice was good but really just noodles with spice. Lichee lime sorbet excellent! They work hard to be posh and trendy but comes off flat

    We had a fantastic dinner at Momotaro! Food was incredible, drinks hit the spot, and service was attentive. I am usually not a sushi person, but Momotaro is the perfect place for me to be a bit more adventurous and try things I wouldn’t typically eat, and everything I had was delicious. I will definitely be back again and am looking forward to it.
