    BYOB & chill neighborhood sushi spot Great and attentive service Good quality sushi for the price (it's a very extensive sushi menu) There's a lot of different options, some classic combinations (spicy tuna, dragon, etc) as well as more adventurous rolls. Loved how they cut the pieces slightly smaller than other places so you're not taking forever to chew through a bite. 10/10 would be back

    Tequila Roll

    Delicious sushi, lots of vegetarian options, and a chill ambiance that is not overly pretentious! I did make a reservation not knowing how busy they'd be on a Saturday night. There was plenty of space but I sat at the bar (although it picked up a bit as the night went on) and was able to watch the chefs prepare and chat a little with them. The service was fast and friendly. Knowing they are BYOB, I grabbed a drink from Garfield's nearby and the server at Komorebi gave me a glass but also provided water. I got edamame, the tequila roll, and chili mango. Honestly it was all delicious, but the chili mango roll stood out to me the most as the perfect complement to the tequila roll. The mango was so fresh and tasty. Highly recommend ordering them together!

    Komorebi sushi has a huge menu, including a lot of very good veggie roll options. They have the basic veggie rolls like a lot of restaurants, but then they also have SIX speciality veggie rolls, which I have found is very rare for a sushi place! I ordered the crispy rice as an appetizer (which does have fish) and then the inari roll for my meal. All the veggie rolls sounded good but I ended up going with the inari roll because I love fried tofu and kampyo. This was overall a really good meal and I will definitely be back to try the other rolls!

    I was surprised by how much I liked this place. Their specialty rolls almost deterred me from trying it out because I wasn't sure how all the flavors would work but I recommend trying Komorebi! Fish was fresh, service was quick and friendly. It is a cute and cozy place. We ordered - salmon sashimi - aloha roll - this was my favorite roll. I love fruity flavors with my food - dragon roll - a good classic roll - garlic salmon - I took the jalapeño out but this roll surprised me the most and I liked it. The garlic was strong but not overpowering - tropical - a refreshing roll

    Sushi Deluxe
    Amanda C.

    The sushi deluxe combo was a great deal for 2. It came with 10 pieces of nigiri, a caterpillar roll, rainbow roll, and salad. All pretty tasty and no complaints. I liked how there was some wasabi underneath each slice of fish in the nigiri - not every place does this! Wasn't too busy on a Sunday night but service was a bit slower than we liked - could be bc we were sitting by the window and it was out of the peripheral view of the staff. They were kind and helpful when we did catch their attention though!

    Everyone needs a Komorebi in their neighborhood! Finally had the chance to try their menu and was so impressed. After spending a sizable amount of time perusing the menu, I settled on the Smokey and Green In rolls. I ordered via delivery and both survived the trip well with a lovely presentation to boot. The Smokey roll was absolutely outstanding- the charred salmon was perfectly complemented by a creamy shrimp filling and crunchy spice of jalapeno. Generally, I am dubious about excessive sauces on sushi, but the wasabi mayo perfectly tied together the flavor notes. A sprinkle of cilantro really took the dish to the next level. The Green In roll was excellent as well and very refreshing- the veggies were so crunchy and the sesame sauce brought a refreshing sweetness to the spicy jalapeno. I really appreciated how fresh all of the ingredients were (especially the fish) and that the fillings were very generous. Still dreaming about this sushi and already looking forward to next time. Can't recommend Komorebi enough!

    Is this Still byob?

    Yes

    Are they open for indoor dining now?

    Yes!! Their food is super delicious

    As Byob can I take Whiskey or is it just wine and beer?

    I don't think they care what you bring as long as the party drinks responsibly

    Is there a corkage fee?

    There was no corkage fee when I visited about a month ago. Last time I brought a 6 pack and soju. The server brought us a bucket of ice, glasses for beer, and shot glasses for the soju.

    Is this place a BYOB?

    Yes !!

I got the salmon bowl, the salmon avocado maki, and tuna crispy rice. The salmon bowl was definitely my favorite. The salmon was cooked very nicely so that it wasn't dry, and I loved the miso glaze that they put on top. It added a very nice sweetness to the salmon and created a very nice char. It was pretty small portion size though. The salmon avocado maki was solid too. It was the most filling! You get 5 pieces :) The tuna crispy rice was just alright. The rice part was good, but there was a bit too much mayo in the tuna. The miso soup that came complimentary with it was good too! I like how generous they were with the seaweed. Such a nice vibe inside! It's definitely a nicer spot, but still casual enough for lunch. I wanna come back for dinner! Service was quick and server was kind.

It clearly is for all their locations. Unfortunately, here at Chinatown's location, when they attempted to scan the card, the staff said it does not work and only works at the Printer's Row location. I ended up calling the Printer's Row location and had the team talk to the manager at the Chinatown location, and the manager at the Chinatown location kept their stance that it does not work, stating Printer's Row location does not know why the gift card does not work at the Chinatown location, and will not make any exceptions to accepting the gift card. Thankfully at the Printer's Row location, they are stating it's due to their system being new as they are a new location, and reason why the gift card is not working at all the locations yet which they are now working on to fix so it does not happen to any other customer moving forward. I just wish the Chinatown location showed some compassion to address the issue and still accommodate the inconvenience instead of us having to go back to the Printer's Row location to use the gift card Price: Approximately $20, not including tip for 2 people. There are lunch specials! Ambience: Indoor Seating Overall: Worst experience, especially to follow up my birthday celebration

We had family visiting from out of town, and they were greeted and welcomed by name, which was such a thoughtful touch. Between the incredible sushi, cocktails, views, and service, Miru delivered a truly unique and unforgettable Chicago experience.

    The three of us celebrated our daughter's birthday at Miru, the modern Japanese restaurant on the…read more11th floor of the St. Regis Chicago, which has a charming terrace overlooking the Chicago River, Navy Pier, and Lake Michigan. It was the views that attracted us to this venue. It turned out to be a perfect evening with beautiful weather for dining al fresco. Since it was a Monday evening, the large modern dining room was not too busy. As expected, the outdoor terrace was bustling. The terrace is basically divided into 3 sections. We were seated in the first section closest to Navy Pier and Lake Michigan, and this area filled up fast shortly after 6:00 pm. Service was friendly and professional throughout the evening. Our server Justin was very knowledgeable of the menu. Both the hostess and Justin wished our daughter a happy birthday several times. A birthday dessert with a lit candle on the side was presented to her at the end of the dinner, making it a special meal to her. Our daughter ordered a cocktail called Happy Days ($23) that came in a Japanese cat shaped jar/glass. My husband had a glass of Chablis ($21), and I had a mocktail Setting Sun ($14), which has fresh yuzu, Valencia orange, lychee, Soda. However, I could only taste the soda, I wished I could taste the lychee. For dinner, we ordered the following to share: Kani Kani Crispy Rice ($34) -- Justin recommended this dish. I really enjoyed the crispy rice and the minced crab meat topping, which was flavorful and not too spicy. However, my husband did not feel that was a crab flavor. Tempura Rock Shrimp ($19) -- a nice quantity for sharing, shrimp was fresh, but nothing too special. Crispy Spring Rolls ($28) -- 6 very small spring rolls were filled with Maine lobster, pork, with Thai orange sauce. They were delicious but we couldn't really distinguish the lobster or pork in the minced filling. (For the nigiri and sashimi, each order came with 2 pieces. Everything we tried was fresh.) Unagi +1 piece ($14 + $7) -- BBQ Fresh Water Eel Seared Salmon Belly Nigiri +1 piece ($23 + $11.50) Kinmedai ($18) -- Golden Snapper Chutoro ($21) -- Medium Fatty Tuna A5 Wagyu Nigiri ($49) - This was a surprise disappointment. All 4 pieces of Wagyu were tough and had gristle in them, so chewy that we had to spit them out. It's definitely not the melt-in-your-mouth A5 Wagyu experience that I was looking for. Duck Yakisoba ($28) - This dish was mixed on our table by a server, that added more fun to a dish that had egg noodles, duck confit, and ginger. It was flavorful with a good amount of duck. Black Cod ($44) - It was nicely seared and prepared. However, my first bite had a very slight fishy smell in it. Otherwise, it was a good dish. Black Sesame Mochi ($18) -- Charcoal-Vanilla ice cream, black sesame praline, and mochi sponge. Surprisingly, this was the highlight of the night! The flavors and all the different textures worked very well together. I could easily eat a couple of these myself! I am still craving for the aromatic crispy black sesame praline and creamy charcoal-vanilla ice cream a week later! With a 3.5% restaurant surcharge, our total bill came to $431.80 before tip. Valet parking was originally $50, but with restaurant validation, it was brought down to $35. All in all, we had a wonderful birthday dinner for our daughter. The stunning views and ambiance with excellent service made it a memorable evening, while the food was very good overall, there were a couple of disappointments. For us, Miru is a 4-star experience overall, with 5-star ambiance and service.

The tuna piece was the only I really loved. The fish quality wasn't as high as I was expecting. The sushi was decent. A little too much truffle in the spicy blue fin tuna and a little too vegetable forward in the hamachi serrano. All in all, the atmosphere and amazing service pushed this up to a 4 for me.
