Excellent, as always. The spicy tuna on caked rice was especially delicious. Can't go wrong with yellowtail jalapeno appetizer. Miso black cod is a fave, and the lychee martini is worth the trip. Wagyu on hot stone is superb, but expensive. Staff was super friendly and accommodating on Thanksgiving.

The food was good but not great. The fish portions were small which isn't always a negative but when the food is not amazing then it is just over priced for soso sushi. The time it took to get our first drink was 15 min and it took 20 min to get our appetizers. There location in Las Vegas was much better.

John David was our server, and he was the consummate professional. We were a party of six hosting our twins 23rd birthday and everything from beginning to end was fabulous. Our server made excellent recommendations to accommodate a gluten-free guest as well as a vegetarian guest, and everyone loved the craft cocktails as well. We have dined at numerous Nobu restaurants around the United States and believe that the food and service in Chicago is second to none. We will be back.

Had a 2:00 lunch reservation. Rushed through lunch. Was told to order dessert ten minutes into getting our meal because the kitchen/ bar as closing . That is ridiculous. Don’t take a 2:00 reservation if I can’t enjoy my $500 lunch. The food was delicious but it was a ruined rushed celebration lunch
