    Soooo much better than Kura Sushi. No wait time + great throwback music + good service + fresh sushi. Portions are pretty big compared to a regular rotating sushi bar -- favorite was the sushi sandwich. Only con was that they didn't have crispy tuna, but that's okay!

    The rotary belt and some art decorating the back wall. That purple wall changes color avery few minutes.

    We went to Sushi Plus Rotary Sushi Bar, across from Chicago's Chinatown Square Plaza, for their great sushi, and for their fun "rotary" conveyor-belt food-delivery to the tables! The room is bright, with some modern and playful décor and some lovely scenes of Japan. There is also a small shop of trinkets and gifts. We were a group of seven, and we arrived shortly after 11:30am on a Monday to get their one large table that can set up to nine or so. Their many smaller filled up quickly. A wide variety of dishes are sent around the room on the "rotary" conveyor belt, with color-coded plates and signs indication the price, between $3.60 and $7.50 per plate (Feb 2026). You can also "special order" a dish using an electronic tablet, and a single-car train delivers it to your table! We were greeted with wet hand-towels in sealed individual packages, chopsticks, thermoses of self-service hot tea and ceramic handle-less cups, individual packets of horseradish paste, and bottle of richly-flavored tamari soy sauce with ceramic serving bowls. We first took plates of ginger slices to share. I like to dab a little horseradish on sashimi slices, nigiri slabs, sushi rolls. Or separately, i dip the fish side of those in tamari. We selected many main dishes! Tender sashimi slices of bright orange-pink raw salmon, Cold individual cooked shrimp ebi nigiri laid on rice slabs, slabs of scrambled-egg bound by a nori-seaweed belt as nigiri over rice slabs, silver-skinned saba marinated mackerel fish nigiri, at least three varieties of plain or spicy sake scottish salmon sushi rolls of seaweed around veggies and rice, tender sliced boiled-octopus tako nigiri, salty burst-y pink roe in nori cylinders, tender thin-wrapped lightly-spicy seasoned pork dumplings, pink smoked-salmon nigiri, a lemon-mandarin yuzu-sauced baby-octopus cucumber salad-bowl with white sesame, lovely super-white buttery escolar tuna nigiri, chewy pink semi-sweet difuku red-bean pounded-rice bites. Everything was fresh and delicious. The prices were reasonable, and you can easily fit your budget. We were well-taken-care-of by their attentive welcoming staff. And the rotary food-service belt is added fun :-). We highly recommend this dining experience.

    Great for kids entertainment

    This was a pretty good experience, I just don't desire to do it again. Hey over time I've began to like sushi less. I'm over sticky fish smelling rice, and to be honest I hate avocados. But hey came for a birthday celebration and it was so cute inside. While everyone smashed the rotary bar, trying all sorts of sushi, I kept it cute and went for what I know. They had an additional option that you could order at the table from. I ordered a seafood ramen, shrimp tempura and gyoza. Topped it off was a (here we go again) premixed margarita. The way the waiter came back in seconds gave it away. This margarita isn't made fresh. I stomached it down with a frown on my face. & did not order another one.

    It's not all you can eat But they have creative and inventive rolls and food. Nigiri was good quality and tasted good w the flavoring. Price was average with mid range sushi prices. The rotary is fun and you pick the color plate and you pay according to the color. Ginger in 1 oz containers are free. Clean, modern, hip decor. Lots of K-pop music and fun beats with hip hop too. Good dessert! Tayaki, Daifuku (mochi w red bean inside), crème brûlée, cheesecake, and the best thing ever that ever came from Hawaii! Dole Whip which is like soft Italian ice (not dairy ice cream) in pineapple and strawberry flavors. It is soooo good and comes in a cone for $2.59 each. Don't miss it bc unless you buy it for $6 at a hard to find grocery store or go to Hawaii, you can eat it here. Salad is only $3 w great ginger sauce on the side

    Super tasty makis. Can get busy but we went weekday lunch and got seated right away. Service is great. Our server kept checking on us to see if there's anything we need that is not in the rotary. If you're not into sushi, they have à la carte ramen and fried chicken apps/fries for kids!

    Mango dessert

    Delicious spot where sushi pieces are cut thick and rice is almost more than half of the portion. Food comes quick on a Friday lunch time and there was practically no one. I will say, the prices are very expensive and you can choose different plates for cheaper options. But up to you!

    I just LOVE a fun dining experience. This is a culinary experience!! You get to either order from an iPad in which your food is delivered through a cute train, or grab food off the rotating conveyer belt. A nice way to try a variety of rolls without having to commit to the bit. The surf and turf roll acrually blew my mind with the tender fatty beef combined with the imitation crab inside, and the sashimi quality was pretty good! Salmon was great, and a generous portion of scallop sashimi. This place is busy, and turnover isn't that high, so do expect a line!! We went on a Saturday night and waited 45 min for a table of two. They gave us an estimate of an hour, but you do get to walk outside while they "call you back".

    may no longer be on the menu

    This spot used to be our go-to affordable quick fix sushi eats spot, but the menu has downsized, no longer having a lot of our favorites like ebi, oyster shooters, and this uni scallop ikura bowl. The quality is still decent for price. If you're looking strictly for sushi rolls and fast service, this is still a good options.

    I did a takeout order from sushi +. The sushi was really good and the price was good too! I walked in & placed my to go order right away. Everyone was super helpful and friendly! This place looks like so much fun! It's bright and happy & has a revolving sushi belt that you can get sushi from. My to go order was up fast! I waited less than 10 mins & the sushi was so fresh and tasty! I really appreciated the cute (insulated!) to go bag with the Chicago skyline on it! This is the neatest place & I really enjoyed my sushi from here!

    Vanity H.

    My go to sushi place when in China town if I'm in the mood. Delicious, affordable, and love the touch of technology used to bring out the dishes. I never get the premade plates that roll around as I like to get mine fresh (or so I think it's fresh ahaha). This was my first time getting a drink and it didn't hit the way I like nor did it for my friend but that's okay cause food was the priority. They give you a punch card when you visit allowing you to get money off once you get enough. Very friendly & welcoming environment!

    Is there a kids menu or kid friendly options for the nonadventurous little ones?

    Yes.

    What is the parking like?

    There's a parking lot under the "el". They validate for it

    Do they offer any vegetarian options?

    Do you need a vaccination card to eat at the restaurant?

    Yes. That's a City of Chicago requirement!

    How long is the wait usually on a week day for dinner?

    Are they still doing pay by plate sushi on the conveyor belt or do you just have to order your food?

    Both

    Do they offer an AYCE option?

    Sadly, they do not.

    Planning to go this Sunday for my husbands birthday? How long is the wait typically?

    Is really depends on what time. During lunch is not much wait but from 6pm to 8pm is dinner crowd is about 30 to 45 minutes wait

You can tell they water it down a lot and just add a ton of minced garlic to make up for it. By the end of my bowl it was just boiled garlic crumbles. The tonkotsu was also completely the wrong color: translucent, watery, brown chicken-broth looking--not a nice light, fatty, and milky brown. Missing flavor. The chicken ramen was also extremely underwhelming, ZERO FLAVOR in the broth and the chicken!!!!! The meat itself was very moist, but the broth honestly tastes like a can of low sodium chicken broth. Really embarrassing excuse for ramen. I really expected more out of this place. Can't compete with A-tier Asian food in other areas. Service was pretty poor too. One girl for the entire floor of tables. Ignored us the entire time apart from getting our orders. Overall not worth coming back when there's so much better Asian food out there to try.

The Alaskan cod sandwich was served on a bed of cabbage covered in a sweet teriyaki & brown mustard sauce with maybe a squeeze of kewpie sprinkled in between. The Berkshire pork eggrolls had microgreens & shaved radish on top of a crema type of sauce that balanced the heat of the kimchi nicely!! For the main attraction I ordered the spicy garlic ramen that was such a delightful mouth experience it really hit all the taste buds! The noodles were perfectly bouncy with the right amount of chew. The jellied egg was perfect and rounded the soup very well! The red chili threads enhanced the spicy miso broth just enough to slurp all the delicious goodness down! My husband ordered the Sapporo miso soup which had more of a creamy type of broth vs the spicy garlic. The noodles were also thinner than regular ramen & had a bouncy springy texture that just hit the spot! Since it was kinda chilly outside we also ordered hot green tea to accompany our spectacular ramen dishes. This place also offers delicious seasonal cocktails on the menu or hot sake if that's what you are hankering for. Definitely try this ramen joint if you are in the Logan square area your tummy will be so happy that you did!!

    I was skeptical when I first heard the name Monster Ramen. All my previous personal experiences…read morehave always proven to me that restaurants with names that don't represent their culture in distinct ways are generally subpar. For example, I would usually never even think to step into a restaurant named Best China House, Sushi Bistro, or Mom's Korean Restaurant. (Apologies if your shops are named as such. These were meant to be generic examples) Oh, how times have changed. I would have never thought having a bowl of ramen at a Monster Ramen would give me this much pleasure. Part of it will (in fact, most of it) be on me and my general philosophy on fusion cuisine and outdated gemerational gap. There was definitely a time when avoiding agorementioned type of restaurants may have been deemed smart. But I feel the new generation of restaurant owners and chefs have up'd their games in not only at better food making, but also accepting of a bit more irony. Anyone who knows me knows how much I stay away from trying anything "fusion." It's kinda funny to myself how hypocritical it is that I would be totally okay in substituting an ingredient or two when I'm missing some when cooking, but when it comes to paying money to sit and eat that I would judge chefs by thier style of cooking. Yes, a big part of it is based on a large pool of personally gathered data, but I do acknowledge that I need to open myself up a bit more. Case in point. I was recommended MR by a fellow Yelper and I decided to give it a whirl. I happened to have a friend and his son with me, so I was able to do small tastings of 3 different ramen. And boy, was I pleasantly surprised. We collectively had bowls of shio, shoyu and miso specials. Plus, I ended up getting the Summer Special bowl to go for my wife. All of them had their individual charm to them but more importantly, each of them were made to perfection when it came to broth seasoning and noodle texture, which are THE two most important aspect of ramen, in my opionion. Not too salty nor bland soup. Perfectly dense noodles. I just loved all four! It wad when I tasted the yuzu in tgeir shio ramen that my wife would love it. Even though I brought her the spicy Sunmer version home, I still think it'll be worth bringing her and our daughter back when we get a chance to. Our server Dionne (I think) was most pleasant and helpful. The atmosphere of the restaurant was great, too. It helped that I came before the dinner rush, although, I can also see more lively vibe being nice as well. Will be back with the fam definitely!
