   Tied for the best sushi I’ve had in Chicago. Great service. Super tasty cocktails. Was a bit noisy but was a Friday night so expected. Will definitely be back.

   We had a wonderful dining experience. Our server was punctual and knowledgeable and consequently very helpful in guiding a first time sushi-er. Really nice experience, delicious food with equal service. To get nit-picky: little too dark and on the noisy side but those were minor issues comparatively. Thanks Momotaro for making our Christmas celebration so much fun!

   Always a great place to go in the Windy City. My wife and I shared 8 tapas sized dishes chosen Omakase style by the waitress. All were tasty!

   Our waiter was very helpful with all of the questions we had on the menu and pointed us in the right direction of what to get! Amazing Nigiri and Sashimi.

   Not sure what the big deal is. Food was mediocre, especially for the price. Service was terrible. Food was being brought out one plate at a time spaced 20 mins apart. There was no effort to bring things out at the same time.

   We’ve been here a couple of times and each time has been incredible. They had an amazing broccoli cold dish and their salmon belly sushi was phenomenal. You can’t go wrong with anything! The fish quality is amazing and so buttery.
