I've been on the hunt for my go to sushi spot in Naperville and I've finally found it! Wild Rice is a small and locally owned business. From start to finish I was treated like family. Staff members are extremely kind and accommodating. I have a shrimp allergy and they made sure to not have any type of cross contamination. The restaurant itself is pretty dated, however, this is exactly what I wanted. This is the perfect place to dress casual or even dress up, but I was in the mood to just chill and have some excellent sushi. A friend and I shared 4 rolls - mango tango, tuna lover, Ogden avenue roll, and the great Naperville roll. Everything was delicious and fresh. I would order all of these rolls again and I probably will! I'm also looking forward to trying their entire menu. It's that dang goooooood. read more

Them getting more help has to be one of the slowest places that I know. They need more people to help with the food always only 1 man doing it and he's way to slow read more

Wild Rice Sushi is such a gem in Naperville. Their lunch special is an incredible deal, especially for the quality you get, every roll we tried was fresh, well-made, and genuinely delicious. One standout for me was the spicy hamachi maki. You almost never see hamachi offered spicy (it's usually just tuna or salmon), and it was excellent, easily my favorite roll. On top of the food, the staff was beyond friendly and sweet. Everyone was welcoming and attentive without being overbearing, which made the experience even better. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to. read more

I came here for pick up as I was craving sushi and it really hit the spot. I probably ordered a little too much and was pretty stuffed. I got the Ogden Avenue roll, the mango tango roll, and chicken pad Thai. Then with all of that I got a free order of crab Rangoon. I had to finish the chicken pad Thai the next day because I ate everything else maybe except a couple of rolls as it was all just super filling. There was a lot of great flavor and I would love to try more of the other menu items. read more

Adorable little place with very welcoming staff. I love that they have black rice and were very accommodating when I asked them to use it in my roll. The rice was delicious and nutty and vinegar-y... so excited to come back! read more

Always game to try a new sushi place (at least new to me), and for the most part it was ok. Except for the Spicy Tuna Roll. It tasted off - I think because of the weird fish flakes in it? It tasted very fishy (as in fish that's not fresh) and I could not eat it. Even if the rest was fine, I will not order again from this place. There are enough other outstanding sushi places in Naperville read more

Very thankful to the team at Wild Rice Sushi and Grill for being so hospitable to my work team. We had ~10-15 colleagues join on a weekday evening, and everything went very well. I appreciate the speed of service (plenty of parking and not too crowded), quality/presentation of food, and note the significant quantity of food as well! We tried quite a bit on the menu- from seaweed salads to sashimi and traditional sushi rolls to ice/boat presentations. Will definitely come back next time I'm in the area! read more

I LOVE this place. The sushi chef (Sonny) and the waitress (missy) remember everything! The food is always exceptionally done! The ambiance needs some updates, but between the food and service, we'll keep coming back - probably at least once a week!!! It's a hidden gem for sure! read more

Nice quiet establishment, the service was excellent, and the food, in general, was satisfactory. read more

STILL my favorite sushi in town! (Another guy waiting outside while we were picking up our orders declared it the best in the state!) In Covid times they are not open for seating, but have pickup through a hole in the plexiglass shield covering the door. Everyone inside was hustling! Glad to see on a week day that some customers were picking up food after work. I actually didn't get sushi myself yesterday: I had a taste for chicken teriyaki, which was delicious with its deeply flavored glaze and caramelized onions. It came with steamed veggies, white rice and miso soup (you can also substitute clear mushroom broth). Support your local sushi! Get something yummy from Wild Rice soon. read more

When it comes to sushi, many of us are very particular as to what we like and where to go. My favorite place was Kyoto in Downers Grove but unfortunately during Covid, they closed. So we've been looking for something that salivated our pallet as Kyoto did. I have ordered from Wild Rice Sushi and Grill on a few occasions but will say, this time was better than others. It's a very small basic strip center restaurant with very few seating and not much ambiance, but the food was good. I ordered on line and said it would take 50 minutes to pick up, which I had no problem with. But when I arrived it was another 20 minutes longer to get my order. I know now they are very short staffed, 1 sushi chef, 1 server and likely 1 person in the back. I am more tolerable these days but on a Saturday night, I wasn't too thrilled. And with 3 tables with 4 patrons each and 1table with 2, it wasn't that busy. The Ginger Salad was a good size with refreshing dressing, appetizers were King Crab Rangoon and one of my favorites, Gyoza. The only disappointment there was by the time I got it home, it was cold , as I expected. I always get an order of Salmon Sushi and tend to judge a place on that, and I wasn't disappointed by any means. There are 2 to an order and a nice slice of sushi. Delicious! Rolls were great with a spicy tuna roll that is not too spicy but always consistent and a Shrimp Tempura Roll. But tonight I decided to order 3 specialty rolls I never had. The first was the Mango Tango Roll which had Yellowtail, white fish, salmon, avocado inside, topped with mango, tobiko & mango sauce. Very sweet with the mango overtaking much of the flavor but I did enjoy it very much. You better love mango for this one. The second was the 2018 roll with Tuna, salmon inside topped w. tuna, salmon, eel, avocado & masago served w. eel sauce. This was delicious and very filling. And lastly the Classic Godzilla Roll which was very tasty for a deep dishes roll. It had Deep-fried spicy tuna, avocado topped w. eel sauce, spicy mayo, masago, scallions. I do like what I ordered and will continue to enjoy takeout from here. I'm not convinced I'll fine in but don't let that discourage you, it's fine for a basic bite. read more

Ate last night, and had the hibachi but the chicken was a little overdone. Others had the pad thai and said it tasted a little different than other places but was a good-tasting dish. We liked the ginger salad dressing, I just would have liked more of it. Service was spot on with the wait staff. Food took a little while to get but reasonable. We would come here again to try the hot pots. read more

Pretty good sushi place. Reasonable prices for reasonable rolls. Some gluten free options that the server was knowledgeable about, as well as things that could be modified to accommodate a gluten allergy. The environment was clean and our server was attentive to our needs, and she was friendly. Edamame was fresh and salty, salmon in Philadelphia roll was tasty but slightly dry. read more

I have been here twice, and the food has been great each time. Both times I have been here it was my party and one other. The gyoza tasted fresh and not frozen. All of the rolls we tried tasted fresh and done right. I thought the price was reasonable compared to the portion size. I never traveled out of my way to get here, but it is an excellent spot for sushi if you're in the area. They advertise having Thai options, but I have never gotten past the sushi. read more

Service was great but the restaurant was empty only 3 tables with people dining. The atmosphere is nothing great but it appeared to be clean. I ordered the Calamari (don't waist your money), so ai tried a crab rangoon not too bad! Then a ogden roll which was pretty good. Probably won't go back. read more

It was a Wednesday night after normal supper hours. ~ 7:30. Very friendly, the food was good. The curry soup was very good. The sushi roll was excellent. read more

I went here for lunch with the wife. We ordered several rolls, super white tuna and saba nigiri. I enjoyed the tempura, rolls and Saba. We liked the gyoza, which were excellent. We had some issues with the fish. The wife reported that she did not like the texture of the nigiri. The fish on the rolls should have been firm rather than mushy. I wanted to order 3 rolls designated on the menu as spicy, but the wife shut me down. She need not have worried as the allegedly spicy rolls were not spicy at all. I am concerned that the fish wasn't fresh because both of us had some abdominal discomfort. this is unfortunate because the food was generally good despite the mushy fish. read more

This place is my new favorite sushi spot. The prices are reasonable and the tuna tataki is the best I've ever had! Seriously, try the tuna tataki. I've had a few of their rolls and only two issues with them (which is the reason for the 4 stars), one of the rolls said it had salmon it it among other things and we looked in every piece of the roll and am sure there was no salmon. It was still good, but it bugged me so I mentioned it to the waitress and she ended up bringing us a side of salmon. The other issue I had was just flat out not liking the Mexican roll, I don't recommend at all, the combination of ingredients was just odd and didn't compliment each other. All in all, I keep going back to try all of the rolls on the menu. read more

Great food. The place is clean and service was even better. We ordered shrimp padthai and an amazing roll. Both passed our taste buds. I recommend this place. read more

This is the best sushi spot in town! It's so good and the staff is lovely! We love coming here!

This place has wonderful sushi. Came with my mom and nieces. Tempura was tasty. Had hamachi sushi my test for fresh sushi and they passed the test. It melted in my mouth and the piece was generous. We ordered rolls and we loved the mango tango, sunshine roll and dancing eel roll. Also loved the spider roll and California roll. We will definitely be back read more

Ice sculpture! That's right, you get a MF ice sculpture when you order the Wild Rice roll. Okay, so maybe it came from a mold, but it was still pretty cool. The sushi here not only tasted good, but were beautiful. I feel like I got $$$ sushi for the price of $$ here. Our waitress was nice and friendly. The chef even sent over a complimentary seaweed salad with mangos to start off our meal and it was yummy. There also complimentary fresh pineapple at the end of the meal. The restaurant looks nice on the inside and the booth seating was comfortable. Monster Ball $8 - Yes, do iiiit. Everyone talked about it so I had to try it and it did not disappoint. Angel Roll $11 - Everyone talked about this roll, also, and I thought it was pretty good even though it is lacking in the raw fish department. The imitation crab on top is probably the best imitation crab I have ever had. Great flavor and the tempura shrimp provided a very satisfying crunch. Dancing Eel $13 - Good Wild Rice $16 - This is not your traditional roll since it doesn't have rice nor seaweed. Instead, it is stuffed with high end imitation crab and wrapped in rice paper and has a little bit of sweet sauce on it. It was good, but I prefer the savory rolls...HOWEVER, it did come with the aforementioned ice sculpture! Which I played with until it broke, but it was glorious. Easy parking in the strip mall lot. ....| \ _ , , , - - , , _ , .../ , ` . - ' ` ' . _ \ - ; ; ; , _ ..| , a - ) ) _ . ; . ( ` - ` - ' - ' ' - - - ' ' ( _ / . _ ) - ' ( _ \ _ ) 2018 read more

This place has AMAZING sushi. I'm only not giving them 5 stars because it took us nearly a full hour to get our sushi...and there were only 2 other small tables of people in the restaurant. I got the Crunch Roll which was just under $8. It was super delicious and well presented. My sister got the Angel Wing Roll and the Spicy Crab Roll. The Angel Wing Roll tasted a lot like mine. It was delicious too as was the Spicy Crab. The Spicy Crab was very simple and had the perfect amount of spice. I also got an order of he vegetable fried rice. It was it was a side order, but it was huge!! Our waitress also brought me some yum yum sauce for it. It was very good. Not sure if it was because we were waiting a ridiculous amount of time, but they gave us a free bowl of edamame and even gave us fresh pineapple at the end of our meal. Our waitress was nice, but overall the service was a little slow. We did not mind it too much at all, just found it strange since the restaurant was nearly empty. read more

Went here on Friday because every other sushi place we looked at was closed, but this was definitely a hit! I got the rainbow naruto roll and lucky 7 roll which were both really good, but the rainbow naruto was not wrapped in rice, but in cucumber- which the menu doesn't state. Other than that, Wild Rice did not disappoint! My boyfriend got the nabeyaki udon which was super good too! Due to social distancing, we didn't get to eat inside, but they have a system at the door so it was practically contactless. read more

This place used to be phat noodle restaurant. The current owner took over about two years old. I was looking for a new sushi/seafood place in town and noticed it was dated pretty good and Yelp. So her I am. There weren't too many patrons when I walked in around 7 pm. Maybe the location was not really visible from Ogden, so not getting attraction from drive-by customers. I ordered " Sashimw 4 Me" which is 15-pc of sashimi (raw fish). They served it on a huge plate with ice sculptures of cranes, and it looked gorgeous for just $18.95. It also comes with miso soup, salad and fruit (pineapple) as after-meal dissent. The sashimi included super white tuna, tuna, yellow tail, salmon and shrimp. I was not not disappointed at all. The tastes fresh and delicious! On a side note, the wasabi was a little bit grainy but it carries a good punch. read more

Amazing Sushi in Naperville! Finally, after recently moving to Naperville and also being a huge fan of delicious sushi (which I cannot prepare myself and thus must seek out), I know where to get fresh, tasty sushi from friendly staff at reasonable prices. I placed a big order and EVERYONE was raving about this sushi. The amazing roll, Shrimp tempura, Alaska, Angel wing, Crunch shrimp roll and Salmon sushi all delicious, flavorful, and most important, fresh! Additionally I enjoyed the secure and thoughtful packaging which made the meal that much easier and more enjoyable to partake in. I asked for eel sauce and they gave me 3 containers. I asked for a certain number of chopsticks, and they were all there. It is the little things that are the icing on the cake. I hope they add a roll involving spicy crab, salmon, avocado and cream cheese, tempura battered and deep fried. I dream of this roll. Just a thought. read more

They offer great sushi at reasonable prices. I was impressed with the menu and the service. It is clean and well run. We will definitely go back again. read more

We've been wanting to try this place for a while and finally stopped in! I'll start by saying the sushi rolls we ordered were fantastic. Quality, well executed rolls. The service, on the other hand, was atrocious. They had one person in back, one person making the sushi, and one server. No knock on the server, she was great, but they were swamped! We arrived at 5:30 on a Friday night and there were only 3 other tables of two seated. It took 15 minutes for the server to take our order, and another 45 for the 4 sushi rolls to arrive. We witnessed at least 6 delivery/pickup orders go out the door - they seemed to be catering to the pick ups rather than their dine in customers. Super disappointing! I thought this might be our new place, but until they get better staffed, order for pick up or delivery. You'll get your food faster. read more

What a great hole in the wall sushi restaurant. This place literally is that. It's in a small strip mall next to a spa. Walk in and notice right away it's pretty small but I like the size. I personally think that's the way most sushi establishments should be. Reminds me of Japan. The music was awesome. New EDM haha I enjoyed it. Anyway, the food. Really good rolls. Everything tasted really fresh and the preparation and presentation was top notch. I went for the 2019 Roll which was a special limited time roll they had with a ton to different fish in and on it. Amazing. Would definitely recommend. The staff was super friendly as well. Obviously always a plus. Oh and free pineapple at the end! read more

Generous avocado on the outside. I think the inside is tempura with some fish. The mango tango, eel, and godzilla rolls were all good. The food was all packaged nicely. I feel they really put effort into everything. read more
