    Really solid sushi joint! Great service and everything we ordered was fresh and delicious. You get a lot of sushi for a great price. Don't sleep on the Sushi Fruit! It was amazing!

    Catching up on Yelp reviews in 2024. I have been to Sushi X once and I have ordered delivery multiple times. Sushi X has become one of my favorite sushi places in Chicago and it's off the beaten path away from the West Loop and Wicker Park. The first time I went was to celebrate one of my friend's birthdays and he had a huge crowd of about 20+ people so we took up pretty much the entire restaurant. Sushi X is BYOB. Ambiance is pretty dark and almost felt like a nightclub and there is some cool artwork on the walls. The rolls are pretty creative and the special rolls are pretty big. Regular rolls are about $8-$10 while special rolls are about $15-$20. Again, the special rolls are pretty big. They do a roll of the month where a special roll is $12, which is a nice discount. Rolls are packed with rice, which make them pretty filling. Sushi is very fresh and I love their Nigiri. Overall, I am very glad that my buddy introduced me to Sushi X. I have had numerous times and it has been great every time. Service was adequate and I haven't had any delivery issues. I will pretty much eat any rolls and I tend to stick to salmon, tuna, yellowtail, and crab for Nigiri, which are all excellent. Prices are fair for Chicago and portion sizes of the rolls are big so this is actually pretty good value. Definitely give Sushi X a try!

    Avocado Roll And Spinach Roll

    Here is yet another place for sushi in a city full. If looking for a chill hip place to get this delicacy, come here. Sushi X is just east of the Expressway on Chicago Avenue close to the Blue Line station. Just so happened to be around here so it was convenient. They had just opened up for lunch so we came in and got a table. As with many of these sushi restaurants, there's a menu of contemporary and more traditional rolls, most with some kind of fish. It has a few vegetarian ones. This made choosing pretty easy though. It's $5 for most rolls, which is good. We got an Avocado Roll and a Spinach Roll. Both were awesome. The Avocado Roll was pretty typical, except this one had sesame seeds. Basically if you've had one this isn't much different, but you know what you're getting. The Spinach Roll was more unique. It's seasoned with garlic, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. This was the first time we ever had this type. Good enough. The spinach thankfully wasn't wilted like we thought it could have been like. Cool little place for sushi and some other appetizers. It closes between lunch and dinner Mondays to Fridays. They're open for dinner only on the weekends.

    I'd say the music and vibes in the restaurant are really catered to young adults which is fantastic. The food I felt was not exactly that great. The chicken katsu for example was way too breaded and could barely taste any of the actual meat. The R.O.K dish was way too salty. The sushi does; however, did taste decent. For the quality of food and the pricing I would say it's pretty reasonable. Reason why I gave this a 3 stars is because I told them ahead of them that we were celebrating a birthday and even reminded the waiter during our dining duration. He still forgot anyways which is pretty disappointing.

    Double Stack and Spicy Tuna

    You can't miss this place since the front of the restaurant is covered in a huge mural of a woman. Dinning room is small, maybe 7 tables. The staff is super friendly. There is plants street parking around. Check out their monthly deals for heavily discounted items. Tried the DoubleStack With tuna, salmon, cilantro, avocado, mayo, masago and citrus chili ponzu and the Spicy Tuna w/ masago, sriracha and mayo. Both were very good

    Not sure which is which - Double Stack, Megatron, Sashimi Roll, Five o, Spicy Tuna
    Clara S.

    This is a small no frills sushi joint, with cool house music and a projector to play background videos while you eat. Nothing fancy, and the sushi rolls definitely don't disappoint! Great prices for even better roll portions. It's also byob! Wasn't a fan of the $5 corkage fee, but not a huge deal. The service was super friendly and quick as well. Here's what we ordered and loved: - double stack roll - five o roll - sashimi roll - spicy tuna roll - Maui wowie roll - megaton roll

    The best sushi in Chicago. Everything that I order from Sushi x is amazing and consistent. The shrimp fried and pan seared gyoza are great appetizers.

    This spot in Chicago is a cute little place for sushi! The space intimate and great for a hang out dinner/date night! Be forewarned, this place does not sell any alcohol. So if you like some sake with your sushi, it's BYOB (bring your own booze). I was a little sad I couldn't have some sake with my sushi! But still was good and fun without it! The food is pretty good, taste fresh and full of flavour. I don't remember exactly which rolls we ordered, but we did order 3 rolls and one had mango, which was incredible! Everything cam out fresh, hot food was nice and hot. Service was good, with host coming by every few minutes to top off water, tea or simply check up on you. Because it's a small space, you get lot of attention from staff. Ambiance was fun, with EDM music playing, making me want to dance more than eat [maybe that's why they don't sell alcohol ;) ] ! But over all a fun space. As for price, it was very reasonable and inexpensive. Parking is public on street. Again, since it's a small space, I'd call to see if you can get reservations since may be full or busy on popular weekend evenings.

    If you are traveling solo, the is the best seat in the house (immediate right table)

    So I just I'm coming off of a 2 and 1/2 day virgin vacation in Chicago. I saw a lot over the weekend, and stumbled into here as it's my last night and it's right next to my Airbnb, and I love sushi. Yet this is a review I'm going to immediately write because this place is fabulous!! I just had the Godzilla roll. This is like super candy sushi! Really tasty...my brain at one point spun off into some sushi haven heavenly universe with dancing fish in the sky while eating it; it must've been the (fabulous) club music playing... In spite of the nightclub vibes, keep in mind this a BYOB venue. Also keep in mind, this fabulous Godzilla roll is on the menu in June, and then it's rotated out, to entice you to come back. I sure would, but alas, back to Boston I go. And thank you my friend who took care of me - I enjoyed your New England Patriots story very much and wish you the best of success!

    Gaijin may be a small restaurant, but it makes a big impression the second you walk in. The dining…read moreroom isn't huge, but it has this lively energy that makes it feel exciting instead of crowded. I even was able to watch the chefs cooking just a few feet away. I could hear the sizzling from the grill, smell the food cooking, and by that point I was more than ready to eat. Our server was really nice and gave us a bunch of recommendations. Everything sounded good, but I ended up going with the Pork Belly Yakisoba. This dish was packed with flavor. The noodles had that smoky, slightly charred taste, and they were coated in just enough sauce to make every bite rich. The sauce brought a nice balance of savory, a little sweetness, and plenty of umami that soaked into the noodles. The pork belly was easily the best part. It was incredibly tender and juicy, with just enough fat that it practically melted in your mouth. Every piece had those caramelized edges that added even more flavor. Then you get the crunch from the cabbage and bean sprouts, the freshness from the scallions, and the little nutty flavor from the sesame that tied everything together. Hahaha I'd definitely come back. This is one of those dishes that sticked with me long after I left.

I got the pork okonomiyaki lunch set and added a fried egg to it. I like that the table has a built in grill to keep it warm (I'm a slow eater, so this is extra beneficial for me). The bacon was quite salty, compounded by the okonomi sauce. Hoping the kombu vegetables would offset this, I mixed them into each bite to no avail. The pandan coconut mochi donut holes I chose were probably the highlight. They were crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and there was ample sauce for dipping. I think some people would find the service top notch here--constantly checking in on me and keeping water refilled. I guess that came with a cost: 3% service charge automatically applied, and the server proactively brought over a digital payment system, so the 18% tip I selected calculated off the total leading to what was essentially a tip of 23%.

Then wiped his fingers on a dirty rag and proceeded to finish making the bowls. A short time later, we were served that same bowl of ramen. Watching an employee use their bare hands and mouth on food that was then served to a customer was extremely concerning and completely unacceptable from a food safety and hygiene standpoint. It ruined the experience and made us lose confidence in the restaurant's food handling practices. I hope management takes this seriously, retrains their staff on proper food safety procedures, and ensures this doesn't happen to anyone else.

The interior was pretty sleek and it was packed around 6:30pm on a weeknight. It's definitely the kind of place to go when you want to have a dinner out that feels like an occasion without getting dressed up. Most of the dishes were served family style, so I recommend going with a group if you can! We tried the chef's special menu for 4 people, which had about 8 courses at a great price. To drink, I started with the white lotus, which did not come to play! It was very strong and barely sweet- maybe a bit much for me, but if that's your vibe, you'll like it. Appetizers included the Thai papaya salad and imperial rolls. The first was solid and the rolls were extra hot and crispy. I enjoyed the perilla leaves that they were wrapped in. Next came the garlic rice with whole roasted cloves of garlic, sauteed mushrooms, everything wings, and chili cauliflower. The rice was super fluffy and garlicky, but the miso butter mushrooms are not to be missed! We definitely drank a little bit of the sauce. The wings could have been a little crispier, but I really liked the sweet and spicy Korean style sauce. The crispy chili cauliflower was sweet and actually tasted a bit like orange chicken- we demolished it and this may have been my favorite dish of the whole night! Finally, we had the mentaiko kimchi udon, steak kalbi, and ordered one of their burgers on the side because why not. We agreed that the bonito flakes on the udon covered up the kimchi flavor a bit and wished it was stronger, but I liked the creaminess of the sauce. The steak kalbi had a great flavor and sauce, but I do think it could've been more tender. The burger was as good as it looked and indeed one of the best I've had in Chicago. I loved the balance between sweet and savory, and all of the flavors were balanced very well. We ended the meal with the seasonal dessert, which was sticky rice with strawberries and fermented rice. I thought it made for a refreshing end, but we agreed that it would've been even better served cold rather than hot. Overall, this was a very fun and great experience with delicious food! I would absolutely return and recommend paying a visit.
