    Great place for lunch. Try to come before noon if you want anything from the hot buffet as the line can get pretty long. Lots of variety to choose from. They have a sushi buffet that is actually really good. You can get your choice of sashimi, Philadelphia rolls, spicy tuna, California rolls, etc. They also serve miso soup. On the hot buffet side, you have your choice of Asian food and Italian food. You can get either or or mix it up for $8.99/lb. There is also a salad buffet and a stir fry station. Plenty of tables so that you can dine in. This is located on the 2nd floor of the Sears err the Willis Tower.

    Pick your own sushi! Some good tasting maki today! I was tempted to go for seconds

    Sushi wasn't half bad. These are actual sushi chefs making the sushi in front of you. Plus there's a guy taking out leftover pieces and replacing them with more fuller plates so you have more options. What I like the most was the idea of getting a tray and filling it up with my own sushi choices because sometimes you just want a spicy tuna piece and Philadelphia piece but not to buy two whole maki rolls. This will keep me coming back if I have a small sushi craving. Wish I would have known about this place earlier!

    I met a friend here for lunch and just went to the sushi buffet, which is charged by the pound. I ordered a massive pile of sushi and rolls (see pic of my massive order of sushi compared to my lame friend's weak order) that cost $22, which I consider to be reasonable. That included the price of a drink. The rolls and sushi pieces tasted fresh and did not skimp on the fish to rice ratio. The meal left my appetite sated. Really I ate too much, but that isn't the restaurant's fault. It was too good and I couldn't stop. I might get less sushi next time, but do plan to be back.

    Sushi only cost 5 dollars

    When I first discovered this place it was extremely hard to find. I walked around the entire building before finding it. I think they need to invest in better signs that let you know where to go. I didn't know I had to walk to the other side to get the other options. So when I saw only one side I thought that was it. I stopped the staff working their about it but the young lady I spoke with was no assistance. I asked a fellow customer and he guided me the right way. Besides that the quality of the food was really good. I had the sushi, tilapia, and salad they were really good. And I love that it changes everyday. Clean stations on a buffet line is really rare. Overall I found a new lunchtime location close to my job and I'm happy.

    What a great idea for folks to get a quick, healthy (depending on what you chose) lunch. It's a buffet, but it's like a salad bar, where you just pay for what you take - salad bar, hot food bar w/ some very tasty Chinese items ($7.86/lb), salad bar ($7.86/lb), and sushi bar ($11.83/lb)! First time here, so I sampled lots of stuff and came out to $14 ($4.44 for sushi and the rest for the hot items), but next time, I'm pretty sure I could keep it under $10. Liked: the sushi, Singapore noodles, Hunan chicken ried rice, steamed asparagus. Decadent, but tasty - the honey walnut shrimp and orange chicken - but you can get just 1 piece each! Not fan of: the egg roll (too mushy); broccoli beef (way too salty - but maybe just today), and the steamed fish (I don't know why I thought steamed fish on a buffet would be a good idea, but always looking for healthy options). But overall, a quick, healthy, tasty lunch. I like it. Wish we had a Market Creations downtown in San Diego!

    This fairly new Market Creations is located in the Sears Tower. While tourists may not go ga-ga over a buffet restaurant, this spot is quite popular with downtown office workers. The buffet is by weight, so load up on your hot and cold selections at your discretion. It seems the lines tend to go counterclockwise around the food stations. While nothing I ate was earth-shattering, I enjoyed most every bite. The beef quesadilla tasted almost like a melty hamburger item but my friend said it was too mild. There seemed to be quite a few Asian-style and seafood selections here, along with a salad bar (love the fresh pineapple) and a sushi bar too. The lines can be long during the noon hour but move fairly quickly considering they do have to weigh your plate to calculate your tab.

    at $11.85/ lb of sushi, I focused on nigiri.  here's my nine pieces of nigiri with a grand total of $12.07.  Not bad!

    With Lent in full force, I decided that i needed to find a few places that would not only be paleo, but also allow for Friday meals (no meat) in the loop. Sushi comes quickly to mind (white rice in limited quantities), and so on the first above 30 degree day in Chicago for 2014, I made the trek over to the Sears Tower to check out the sushi at Market Creations. Finding it: When you get to the Willis/Sears Tower, it's on the 2nd floor. There are signs that give you a general idea where Market Creations is, but there's a lot of other food options here, so pay attention. Once you find it, you'll likely see a line forming to the right - that's the sushi bar. There are plenty of rolls, with all sorts of fillings, creams, sauces... but I was here just to enjoy some simple nigiri. (As you'll see in the picture). Here's what I got 3x Tuna: Tuna was my least favorite, as it had a somewhat off taste... yes, it was a bit fishy. The rice was a undercooked a bit as well, but far better than overcooked overworked mushy rice, which I've had at some buffets. 3x White Tuna: Not bad. This came in 2nd place out of three, as the flavor wasn't as clean/crisp as truly fresh white tuna, but it was tasty here. Would benefit from a small squeeze of lemon on top possibly. 3x Salmon: This was actually quite acceptable! (Notice I don't say good). The salmon wasn't fishy, and was fairly smooth with just the right amounts of fat (though that's based on the pieces you select really... pay attention to the pieces you grab!) Total price: $12 and change. Yes, 9 pieces of nigiri for $12 and change. Great value, right? It's based on the weight of what you order, so this fell just in line for me. Verdict: This place is A-OK. If you're craving sushi and don't need the highest of qualities, and the budget is more important right now, this is a massive step above your Jewel/Dominick's sushi at the grocery store, and likely more affordable as well. I'd stick to just white tuna and salmon next time, as the tuna was acceptable, but not enjoyable. At $1.30 per nigiri, the value proposition here is hard to beat. Get some rolls if you like, which may mask the fish a bit better.. but I'm quite content with my nigiri. Side note: I'll have swing back and try the hot buffet/cold salad area sometime, which is actually far cheaper than the sushi ($11.85/lb). Buffet was $7.85 per lb I believe...

    So yummy!

    Best sushi lunch in the Loop! Their sushi buffet is fresh with tons of options! And if you go after 2pm, it's cheaper. (I think half price, but I don't remember). I changed them from a 5 star to a 3. They stopped doing the 1/2 priced sushi at 2. It became too popular. Also, at exactly 2:01 all the employees take all the good sushi for themselves and the rest it left out at the salad bar. Bummer. :-(

    My sister and I decided to treat my brother in law here for his birthday. He found out that a…read morePolish buffet existed around here so he had to go! We went before the dinner rush on a Saturday. There's a small parking lot in the back but that was full so we parked on the street. We were immediately seated and drink orders were taken as well as soup (which is included). Drinks are added separately and not inclusive of the $34 per person. I had the borscht and that was tasty and comforting. My brother in law didn't waste any time and he immediately got his first plate going. My sister and I took our time to enjoy the soup. I then started with the appetizers and tried the different salads. It was cool to see they had aspic since that's not something you see often either. When I eventually made my way to the warm food, I was overwhelmed by all the choices. I tried to take one of everything but even then it was too much so I didn't get to try it all. The meats that I did try were super tender and juicy. They definitely know what they're doing with the meats! The dessert area had so many different options. There was cake, flan and cheesecakes. So many to choose from! I think I just love Polish food in general because of the comfort food aspect. The proteins are usually simmered in gravy and you get to pair it with potatoes cooked in all sort of ways! My sister was adventurous and just started putting random stuff on her plate that I've never seen before. She found the meat spread and that was surprisingly good too. If you're ever in the area, try to go before the dinner rush. It's a great space and is deserving of the title "Largest Polish buffet in Chicagoland".

    Parking is the hardest part here because of the tiny lot and packed side streets. We managed a…read morespit about two blocks away but were seated right away when we got in. Lunch and dinner prices appear to be the same (over $30) for adults but even though the waitress asked how old our kids were, she charged us less, so win on that! Husband liked the carved meats and kids loved the dumplings and all the mini desserts and fruit. I had a bit of dumpling and some sausage and rice, but was getting over a headache, so this was not a gorging meal for me. Very nice waitress and we didn't feel rushed or crowded even though they were busy.
