Mesaku is one of the better places to eat in Lincolnwood. Has a pretty okay variety of rolls to choose among. The prices are very good even for basic rolls. Came in at lunch. It's a nicer looking place than expected from the outside. This isn't a place to judge by the looks though. It's about $3 a roll. The rolls are kind of small. Basic looking. The however are a great value. Got the Avocado Roll and the Vegetable Roll. There's a pretty good amount of choices for vegetarians. Avocados were fresh. The other roll was filled with asparagus, avocados, carrots, and cucumbers and was a more filling one for lunch. For sure it's not quite the best place around here to get sushi but it's not that bad. It still has okay flavor and the service is mostly friendly. The rolls are pretty small but these usually have cheap prices.

The only downside this time is my friend ordered a Prosecco that had obviously been open for a while and our server was a little to quick to want to take plates off the table, which is a little annoying when you're having a nice dinner and conversation.

I do not normally write reviews like this, but the experience my family and I had at Bluefish Sushi…read moreBistro on 3/4/26 was so unacceptable that it needs to be said. Especially to save anybody else from what we had to endure. We came in for dinner after a long, exhausting day of running errands.... myself, my sister, and my 83-year-old mother. We were seated modestly quickly, which gave us hope. Unfortunately, that was the only thing that went right. Shortly after being seated, a man who appeared to be our server approached us not to take our order, but to tell us he was "too busy" to wait on us and that someone else would come. That set the tone immediately. When another server finally did come over, things didn't improve. It took OVER 15 minutes for Server to acknowledge us, And another 10 minutes just to take our order, while we watched multiple tables who were seated after us being served promptly and efficiently. At that point, we should have left. I eventually received an appetizer, but my mother and sister received nothing. As I sat there awkwardly picking at my food, we watched surrounding tables (who arrived after us), receive full meals before us. We flagged down our server, and only then were we casually informed that my mother's meal had been given to another table. No apology beforehand. No proactive communication. No attempt to correct it until we had to ask. Let that sink in: an elderly woman sat there (over a hour now), waiting, ignored, while her meal was served to someone else and no one thought to inform us. At that point, we got up and left. The front door staff were the only bright spots. They were polite and immediately got the manager. The manager assured my sister that the situation would be "handled," that we would be contacted, and that some form of recompense would be made for the experience. She was also so apologetic... But her apologies were as devoid is truth as her personality was devoid of any humanity. So her promises that she would reach out that we would be recompensed well...That never happened. No call. No follow-up. No accountability. As for the food? I can't fairly review it because we never actually received it. The small portion of appetizer I did get was nothing memorable, and the sake was honestly subpar. What I can review is the service, (if one can call it that,) and it was abysmal. Disorganized, inattentive, and completely lacking in basic professionalism and respect. Promises were made and not kept, which makes the experience even worse. I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. There are too many places that actually value their customers' time, dignity, and experience. Save yourself the frustration and go elsewhere.

The dishes are served little by little at a deliberate pace, allowing you to actually enjoy each course without feeling rushed. Each plate felt intentional and thoughtfully prepared rather than filler leading up to a main dish. The progression of flavors was well done, starting lighter and gradually moving into richer, more satisfying bites. Fish quality was fresh and clean, with a good balance between rice and toppings. Presentation was simple and neat, keeping the focus on the quality of the food. Service paired nicely with the course format, with plates arriving at the right time without needing to ask. Staff provided explanations when appropriate but didn't hover. The ambiance was calm and comfortable, making it easy to relax and enjoy the flow of the meal. Portions weren't oversized, but by the end the meal felt complete and satisfying. This is a great spot if you appreciate a slower, more intentional sushi experience instead of rapid, all-at-once ordering. I'd definitely return, especially for the course format.

The ambiance has always been cute and a nice little date spot that's easy to get into. The servers have always been very kind and helpful. We did not realize that they changed to a more premium style. All you can eat menu as an option. Typically with all you can eat options. You have very limited roll selections, but here they have a lot of chef specials on the menu as well as hand rolls sashimi and nigiri. The fish quality didn't change at all! It's still really good. We're typically turned off from all you could eat restaurants due to the fact that their rice to fish ratio is pretty high. That is not the case here. The sushi rolls are still billed in a very cohesive manner. The flavors hit your palate perfectly and are not buried in rice. The all you can eat option may be more expensive than competitors in the area, however, their quality is second to none in this tier. We will definitely be coming back and frequenting this option because you get great quality for a great price!!!

It used to have that at some point, but I've not seen it the past few times we've come. The service was very friendly and the food was decent, but the details missed the mark. It took a long time for the food to come out and the restaurant was only about 15% full. One of our rolls came out anemic looking, filled with stringy herbs, and falling apart when we'd pick it up. The soft drinks were luke warm, with 4 tiny ice chips floating around, and some of the portions looked odd when served on giant plates. Of all foods, sushi is meant to feed the eyes first. Finally, it just feels like a bunch of teenagers (albeit, nice ones) are running the place and nobody is managing it. I know restaurants are hard businesses, I'm just sad that we probably won't go here again.

Oh well, so I tried it and I think they did something that kinda was off compared to the traditional way the Japanese usually served it. For one, the sauce was a bit more on the sweet side. And, traditionally, if it's a Donburi item, that means it's got a base of rice in a bowl. Their creation had some clear noodles mixed with the rice! It wasn't bad, it's just that, I've never had a Don dish with noodles mixed in with the rice! Sorry, It was weird.
