    Small but amazing! Excellent sushi, fast, and very friendly service! My favorite sushi restaurant!

    Dinner tonight: Masa's Special 1, Omelette Sashimi, Striped Bass Sashimi, White Tuna Sashimi, Rainbow Roll, and a Buffalo Grove Roll. So much sushi and sashimi, so fresh and so delicious! My favorite is the white tuna and their salmon. It's always so cold and fresh, I can hear the delicious "crunch/snap" of the fish. Hubs loves the tuna rolls because they're mostly tuna and the clam sashimi aren't chewy one bit. Masa Sushi is a small, unassuming, and unpretentious sushi restaurant with very limited seating AND the most friendliest owner couple you will ever meet! This does not mean the quality of the sushi or the intricacies of the artistry to the rolls are poor. THE FRESHEST SUSHI EVER! The portions are generous and yet still delicate to be a couple of bites. It's not mostly rice like many of the sushi places nearby. Masa Sushi uses the rice just as vessel to hold the fresh fish, not as the filler to make the portion look bigger. The couple who owns the restaurant are so sweet. They're passionate about their business and treat their customers like they've known you forever! My husband and I don't order too often from here, but they still greet us like we were just there last week and ask us about our sons (not just how are the kids, but how are your 2 boys).

    Fantastic, fresh sushi and I believe it's family owned. I believe it's the best sushi place in BG and their prices are very reasonable.

    Carry out order was perfect. Fish was fresh. A nice surprise from a smaller restaurant. Wish they had a website to see current menu/prices.

Vin 90 has a pretty wide variety from pub grub to sushi. Prices are kind of high, which is the only bad thing about it. The menu still has a few items that aren't as pricy though. About the only bad thing is the prices, especially on food. It's not bad on some things however. Take a look and there will be some good ones. It's about $12 for the cheapest cocktails. Really not bad for the fancy suburbs. Of course we got a few. The best was the Spicy Orange Mule. Probably the most interesting and unique Mule I've ever had. This was Orange vodka, ginger beer, and lime with a kick. Because we're pretty cheap we got the cheapest food on the menu just about. The Maki rolls are about $5 or so. Much better than the $65 Lobster Rolls. We got the Avocado and Cucumber Rolls, and these were probably about as good as those, just saying. Proves you can cheap out here. The rolls were a pretty good amount for the cheap price. Could check this place out some time again. It has cheap and very expensive items. There's something for those on a budget or for those who can spend whatever.

    My sushi was pretty good. Not amazing, but not bad either. I was concerned for a few reasons…read more First the menu is all over the place. I don't expect to be able to get burgers, tacos, pasta, and sushi at the same place. Additionally, during prime time on a Friday night there were only two other tables occupied. When you see that at a sushi place you start to wonder about freshness. My concerns seemed to be unfounded, but it does get you thinking as to why aren't there more people here.

I still enjoy the big pieces of fish and mix of cucumbers, avocado, seaweed with a sprinkle of sesame seeds. There was a time it included edamame but doesn't look like it is included anymore. My kids ordered the spider roll, dragon roll and beef udon that came with a california roll. The rolls were a good size and had a good ratio of rice to other ingredients. The pieces of sashimi are good sized with appropriate amount of rice in each piece. The salmon kama is a nice appetizer. It comes out scorching hot and crispy. It can be tricky to eat because of the bones, but worth the work! I really like the design of the booths with the authentic decor resembling Japanese architecture. I don't like that the tables are consistently sticky when we eat there and if we don't get a booth, the tables are wobbly. No matter where we sit, there is always a table with a wobbly leg. The service is always super welcoming and friendly. Our waiter may have been new and still in training because we waited 24 mins from when we asked for the check until it was brought to us. And even then, I had to ask the busboy to remind our server for the check because he kept walking in and out of the room taking other tables' orders and refilling water. Upon realizing the long waiting time, the server was apologetic and still very kind which I appreciated. As we were leaving all the other staff made a point to say thank yous and good byes.

    Not sure how I feel about Chicago Ramen in Wheeling after my most recent experience…read more.. Since my kids had a lot of afternoon activities again and I didn't feel like cooking I decided to get carry out from Chicago Ramen. I placed an order for two Chicken Ramen with an egg. I showed up about 10 minutes later and they were already packing my order. I've always been impressed with how quickly they get the orders ready, but I guess everything is already premade which makes it easier. I ended up adding a wonton soap for one of my daughters since she just burnt her fish sticks at home and needed a back up. As I was waiting for my food I glanced at the chef and noticed that while he was packing our ramen he was NOT wearing any gloves and added the eggs with his bare hands!! I found it shocking and disturbing... Everything was packed well, and as I got home and got our ramen and wonton soup ready for dinner, I realized that instead of the wonton soup, they ended up giving me shrimp broth without any dumplings. I gave them a call and they apologized and offered a refund. I guess it wasn't meant for my daughter to have dinner that night... My husband and I did enjoy our chicken ramen...but I skipped my egg. We both woke up this morning super swollen and realized there was a ton of salt in the food. I'm not sure I will be back and might need to explore some other ramen places in the area. * Easy street parking right out front. * 2 Chicken ramen with an egg $37

However, it has been our go-to place for ramen takeout for some time now, this review is focused on their takeout ramen. After about two years' time, we have narrowed our preferences to the Red Miso Ramen with Egg and the White Miso Ramen with Egg. Both ramen comes with a big piece of Cha-Shu (pork), bamboo shoot, and green onion. The Cha-Shu is very tender and flavorful, and the egg cooked just right. The ramen noodles are bouncy with the right texture. When it comes to broth, the White Miso Ramen is definitely a winner over the Red Miso. I found the broth of the Red Miso a little too thick and there is a taste that makes it less pleasant than the other. There is ground pork in the broth of the White Miso, which adds flavor and complexity to the texture. Portions used to be very big, and I used to have leftovers. However, recently portions have shrunk and I could finish the entire bowl of White Miso Ramen with Egg in one meal with no problems. It would not be enough to feed someone with a bigger appetite than me. They had made a couple of mistakes in our takeout orders a year ago. Since then, they have been accurate with the orders and timing has also improved. I am pleased to have Chicago Ramen in our neighbor town, and a bowl of tasty ramen is so close by. I just saw that they have added Shrimp Wonton Ramen (and two other items) to their menu recently. Next time I might give that a try.
