We went here to celebrate an anniversary. The decor is great very industrial chic. We opted to sit at the sushi counter. Our server was very friendly and helpful for one of the diners who has a food allergy. The cocktails were delicious and unusual. The sesame one is amazing. The space was a bit loud, but we had a good tim. the food tasted amazing both the sushi and cooked dose. What soured us on the experience was the service. When we ordered there were two similar dishes with chicken. we had previously asked about one, and so when we ordered the chicken dish we assumed we would get that one, but the other one came and when we inquired why it was different, they didn’t offer to make it right just said that was the other one. The main disappointment was the feeling that they were trying to push through service quickly. Plates were cleared before the last bite was even in our mouth and sometimes plates that still had sauce and garnish were cleared and had to be pulled back. The service was so fast and furious that we didn’t even have time to inquire about the incorrect dish before all the dishes had been served and we are being asked about dessert. Also FYi they have a QR code to pay which I was going to use until I saw that there is a fee for using it. Overall delicious food, but was not worth the money we spent there.

It's trendy and has a cool vibe. The food is secondary to that, unfortunately. Expensive sushi that is petitely portioned and all food (including hot/cold plates) is slightly underseasoned. Food quality and taste is a solid 3 out of 5. For $200, without drinks, I believe there are numerous better options in Chicago for this type of cuisine. Service was friendly and efficient, though, and I'd maybe consider returning to try their izakaya concept.

Hi Mike, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the vibe and found the service to be friendly and efficient. However, we’re truly sorry to hear that the food didn’t meet your expectations. We strive to create a balanced experience where both quality and flavor shine, and we appreciate your feedback on seasoning and portion size. We understand that there are many great dining options in Chicago, and we would love the opportunity to win you over with our izakaya concept on your next visit. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back soon. Kanpai, Merissa White General Manager Momotaro & The Izakaya

As always, both food and service during our last visit on June 27 were outstanding. We are regulars at Momotaro because we can count on a high quality experience whenever we eat there. On this occasion, our server Britani provided polished, knowledgeable service, accompanied by a ready smile; they had clearly looked up our record of previous food and drink orders and were prepared to serve us. We ordered cold and hot appetizers, grilled shiitake mushrooms and chicken thighs, and rolls from the sushi bar. All were beautifully presented and made of the highest quality ingredients. We enthusiastically recommend Momotaro and thank Britani and the other staff for a pleasant experience.

Dear Ron, Thank you for such a thoughtful and detailed review — it means the world to us coming from one of our cherished regulars. We’re thrilled to know that your most recent visit lived up to your expectations, and even more so that Britani made such a positive impression. She takes great pride in anticipating our guests’ preferences, and your recognition of that effort is deeply appreciated. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with the entire team, especially Britani. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another memorable evening at Momotaro.

We had a wonderful experience - only one dish was not to our liking and that was the curry spaghetti. Unfortunately we took a chance and didn’t like the dish (it tasted a bit like mayonnaise on spaghetti) so nothing the restaurant could have done. Also the chicken dumplings were just Ok. Rolls and sushi were fantastic, as were the cocktails.
MomotaroRespuesta enviada hace 4 días
Hi Sarah, Thank you for joining us and for sharing such thoughtful feedback. We're thrilled to hear the sushi and cocktails hit the mark — and we appreciate your adventurous spirit in trying the curry spaghetti, even if it wasn’t to your taste. Your notes help us grow, and we're grateful you took the time to share them. We hope to welcome you back soon for more of the dishes you loved (and maybe a few new favorites, too). Thank you, Merissa White General Manager Momotaro & The Izakaya

Food and service were exceptional. Great varied menu with too many wonderful items to consume in one sitting. The only (and major) issue was that the music was WAY TOO LOUD! We could barely hear each other without yelling and even had trouble communicating with our servers. People at nearby tables were also yelling which made it even harder to hear. We will not be back. Too bad, we really wanted to try more items.

Dear Leon, Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We’re so glad to know that the food and service stood out and that you found the menu full of exciting options.

We order 4 different plates. One was burned in the bottom, the other meet was raw. Yellow tale small plate was good but nigiri’s were not well prepared. Waitress completely forgot our table twice. Place is too noisy. Impossible to hear each other in table of two.
