    chicago fire roll (8pcs)
    Munsanje M.

    Ordered this for delivery last night and it was delicious! I really like the Chicago fire roll with extra eel and spicy mayo sauce on the side, the seared tuna on it was perfect. The nigiri was INCREDIBLE, specifically the hamachi with the truffle on top and the otoro. The salmon was so buttery and delicious as well! Will definitely be ordering again and going on to check this place out.

    Nice ambiance with huge open window on the storefront facing a Winnetka side street. Lots of locals are eating here, including families with little kids on this early Saturday evening in July. Creative flare shines on a variety of rolls, with lovely presentation. The three of us ordered three rolls plus a couple of nigiri (tuna and hamachi, 2 pieces in an order) and salmon sashimi. The fish was very fresh. The green tea was unique: the high-quality tea bag included tea leaves enhanced with aromatic herbs, and we asked for hot water refill in our teapot. We left room for apple tart for dessert. Gorgeous, tasty, not too sweet. There's a full-service bar with seating along one side of the cozy space. Sushi bar seating is along the back of the room. There are two tables for two out in front, on the sidewalk.

    Not the best experience. The fish is okay,but a little too salty. Not a lot of people here,even it was weekend dinner time.

    Loved! the Spicy Tuna and Spicy Hamachi rolls. Great atmosphere!

    Excellent Sushi! Had the Spicy Tuna and Spicy Hamachi rolls for lunch (tuna gone). Great atmosphere and cozy decor. Highly recommend!

    Jimoto was a different experience than we had thought. We stumbled upon this place in the suburbs of Winnetka and I was taken by surprise. The sushi and salad was a very tasty and filling combination. We got the salmon on the salad for some extra added protein. We requested that they grill the salmon and they did just that. We were so appreciative for them doing that because I cannot have raw salmon. So with that, we will say the service was excellent! The restaurant is a cute, vibrant, and comfortable setting in the suburbs. If you're looking for sushi or simply a fun place to go with friends in the suburbs, this is your spot. All in all, we had an enjoyable experience.

    I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a fresh, new sushi place to dine in. I had just dined there with my girlfriend for a Valentine's Day dinner and it turned out to be a great choice. The sushi was very fresh and the interior decor was chic and modern. The food came out to our table amazingly fast once we ordered it and everything was delicious. Faster than the McDonald's drive through. Lol. We order 2 nigiri rolls (1 tuna and 1 hamachi). We also ordered the spicy tuna roll, Godzilla roll and rainbow roll. The price point wasn't bad either for the quality of sushi that they serve and they also have a full service bar. I'd definitely go back again to try the other rolls.

    The ambiance in this restaurant was amazing. We made a reservation and got seated right away. Our server was so sweet and she made sure she took care of us. The food was delicious and I couldn't get enough. I definitely want to go back.

    I was looking for a good sushi spot in the North Shore and a friend recommended this one. I didn't know what to expect but I noticed that they rated high on Yelp so immediately I was intrigued. I didn't make reservations in advance but probably should have since it was busy when we arrived. Luckily there was seating available at the sushi counter which would have been my preference anyway (I like watching the chefs prepare the food). I wanted something warm to sip on so they brought out their box of teas and it was such a treat going through the process of selecting the perfect one. I don't know why but when they bring out the box of teas, it immediately elevates the experience. We got the steamed dumplings and ordered a couple maki rolls, a hand roll and a few nigiris. The fish was fresh and really good quality. Next time I come back, I would probably create my own omakase and order all the nigiris to try!

    I'm so happy jimoto has finally opened their doors! I've been anticipating the opening of this spot since I love everything their sister restaurant (501 Local) next door does! As expected, jimoto did not disappoint! Everything from the service, to cocktails , rolls, and dessert was just what we needed. I started off with sipping on a smooth shot of sake... nibbled on edamame... then onto the rolls... First, the Spicy Hamachi roll... perfect balance of flavors and the texture of the hamachi was divine... Then the Soy Paper Salmon Roll... mango. spinach. asparagus. mango sauce... I've never had spinach and asparagus in a sushi roll before and I liked this one! Last but not least, the crispy rice roll... So different and maybe my fave because of its uniqueness. The combination of crunch, and I sipped on a Lychee Martini then a "senba zuru" a thousand cranes throughout the meal For dessert, Green Tea Mochi Ice Cream & Vanilla mochi Ice Cream... I didn't ask but I'll bet the mochi was fresh and stuffed because it was soft and had the perfect flavor... The Japanese Cake Roll was delectable and had the most perfect balance of fluffiness and flavor. Not too sweet and tasted so fresh! Can't wait to come back!

I always look forward to the seasonal rotation of menu items, as I know the ingredients will be fresh and in season, and I love looking forward to new dishes. I absolutely adore Spirit Elephant and have loved making this my go-to spot in Winnetka. I have had Meet Up events, girls brunches and date nights here, and always enjoy the experience. I've honestly been here more times than I can count. My omnivore friends are always pleasantly surprised once they've been officially introduced to the magic of Spirit Elephant. I've loved watching all of the small changes over the years, and have appreciated that the quality of the food and handcrafted cocktails has never changed. I have raved of the patio in the past, but they've since done two major upgrades, and I love spending weekend afternoons with a group of friends during the warmer months on their patio even more. The staff is phenomenal, and I appreciate that I always know my server will have an excellent recommendation whenever I stop in (I mean, you truly cannot go wrong with anything that you order).

    Always a treat! Finally made it to happy hour just tinder the wire. We tried the bao buns and poke…read morenachos - both were amazing. The tofu in the bao buns was so crispy and delicious that my carnivore friend said tasted just like pork belly. Having never had pork belly, I was happy that to me it tasted like tofu since I love tofu. The poke nachos were a bit spicy for me but flavorful and delicious. Again, my friend thought it really tasted like tuna. My friend wanted to split the steak which I thought wasn't their strongest dish because it tasted more processed and not like lovely tofu nor like meat. But for those who enjoy vegan steaks, it was quite flavorful and moist. The potatoes were so fluffy and crispy. But not my fav of their dishes. As always the manager, Jordan, comes by and makes us feel like VIPs, laughing and treating us like old friends. And the whole team works together smoothly. Being surrounded by plants with perfect warm lighting makes the ambiance just as wonderful as the food itself.

I really like that you have a lot to choose from, and the included amount was decent. Like, you can pick up to five different toppings like edamame, pineapple, etc, up to three different proteins, toppings like tempura flakes, and different types of rice, including purple rice, which was great. I went with black rice, pineapple, masago, green onions, edamame, salmon, tuna, tofu, and some spicy sriracha. It was delicious. My son loved his poke bowl, but he did say he wished there was more rice. Overall, food was great, service was good, and the overall dining experience is worth a revisit. BATHROOM REVIEW: Located near the back, there is a men's and women's bathroom. In the men's, there is a urinal and a toilet. I always wondered whether to lock the door behind me in these situations. Well, I couldn't anyways, as the lock was broken. So I peed as quick as possible, to avoid being walked-in on. The toilet handle was hard to press but thankfully I got to the gym and it paid off here. Sit or squat? Squat.

    Pretty solid overall!!…read more Ordered fake out sushi from here last week and had a good experience. I normally don't enjoy takeout sushi as it's one of the foods I find tastes best eaten where it's made. That said, I thought I'd give it a go and put in my order when I arrived to ensure everything was fresh. For food we ordered the gyoza, crispy spicy tuna, spicy tuna roll, spicy salmon roll, and shrimp tempura roll. All were good but my g favorites were crispy spicy tuna and spicy tuna roll. The rolls are also very large fyi! Would definitely go back as I'm curious to try their poke.

It melted like butter in my mouth. I've could have had more! Avocado Toast (hamachi, sake, ahi tuna, avocado, jalapeño, seared spicy mayo and crispy shallots)- delicious (my favorite maki roll) Tarabagani (king crab with garlic butter) - the crab is beautifully wrapped around with cucumber. Unagi (eel and avocado) - really good! Zuke salmon sashimi (seared) - good, smoky flavor Spicy tuna - good Vegetable gyoza - good. Son ate a few gyozas thinking it had meat in it so thanks for giving him some veggies. Pork gyoza - good. Son ate all 8 of them. I'll be coming back to try the other makis and eat more sashimi! Since I'm talking about the sashimi, I want to come back right now. They gave me vegetable gyozas the first time when I ordered pork, but they worked with me regarding that mistake and tossed in pork gyozas this time around. My 2nd time, they forgot 1 order of my sake and my hamachi so I can't write about how the hamachi sashimi. Overall, the food was good!

    Sushi right here in Glencoe? Possibly the best thing to happen since March (granted it's been a…read morerough few months). According to their friendly staff their plan is to open right down the street on Vernon, but while things settle down from Covid-19 they are operating as a pop up within Guildhall. I ordered online on my way home from a Dr. appointment this Friday evening thinking that I would pick up 20 minutes later. Silly me because they needed about an hour to prepare my sushi. I got home ready to feed my hungry sushi loving children and realized they forgot 6 pieces of salmon sushi (the kids fave). So I ran back and they had it ready, but prepared without rice which would do for my picky children...and so I waited a bit longer. There were a bunch of others also waiting curbside for both sushi and Guildhall's regular menu, which made me happy to see them somewhat busy during this time. The sushi itself was very fresh. We got a few typical rolls (tuna, salmon, etc). An order of vegetable gyoza. And then their avocado toast and a special version of the California roll. The rolls were much smaller in comparison to other favorite sushi spots nearby and also more expensive, but it was tasty and convenient to have down the street. My entire family enjoyed, but complained they were hungry after, which was a bit annoying for spending $100 on takeout. I'll likely stick with other less expensive spots for takeout (AO, Dempster Fish Market to name a few) since my family can devour a lot of sushi in one sitting, but will definitely be back lots when possible for dining in or even patio dining.

It turned out to be such a fun, family-friendly experience! The atmosphere was perfect for kids, and they had an absolute blast.

One of my picky eaters tried things I never imagined he would, all thanks to Steve! The food was amazing. I ordered the lobster and filet, and it was not only delicious but such a generous portion that I had leftovers for the next day. Every meal came with chicken noodle soup (which my kids loved), a fresh salad, and even ended with ice cream, such a great touch. Sam, the manager, also came by multiple times to check on us. He was so attentive, welcoming, and wonderful with the kids, it really made the whole experience feel special. We got so much food for the value, and more importantly, we made such great family memories. I honestly regret not bringing the kids sooner, but we will definitely be back again very soon!

I left my house planning on a takeout…read moresmash burger at a new fast food place 5 minutes from home, when on a quick whim, I hooked a right turn instead of a left, and drove 22 miles to Ron of Japan in Northbrook, a restaurant I last visited in 1993. I was turned on to the place by a good friend who took me there as a treat, thinking I would like it. She was very right. It was my first experience with teppanyaki, and I was hooked. Over the next 32 years I've had many more of these meals at other nice Japanese places closer to home. So now, for this visit, I suddenly went from getting a $10 burger, to dropping $200 at a restaurant (I went all-in, treating myself on this one). The place still looked the same, which in my case, I loved. I enjoyed a Super Mai Tai at the elegant bar before my table was ready (a very short wait). Lupe, a long serving, very experienced chef was my company for the evening, and he was wonderful. The lobster appetizer was absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked and presented. My filet was a fine piece of meat and it was the exact medium rare I requested. Soup, salad, vegetables, fried rice, shrimp - all fantastic. The waitress was also great, refilling my water, and bringing me a second Super Mai Tai. I topped it all off with a scoop of green tea ice cream. It was an extravagant meal and I was quite full, but it was a Christmas splurge, and it was worth it. Now, I'm planning on not waiting another 32 years to return here. I'll save up some money and come back here with my two grandsons, two daughters, son, and ex-wife. My little guys have been with me a few times at similar places and quite enjoyed it. As far as for me, it was well worth it, and I recommend it all - the people , the food, and the atmosphere, but load up your wallet.
