    a bento box of food

    This place is a hidden gem. Got the Chicken Teriyaki Bento Box, substituted white rice with fried rice. Total came out to $22 which was a little pricey, however once I was served it made sense. This is a high quality meal with high quantity for a reasonable price. Chicken, sushi, and fried rice was fire. Tempura and side salad are a little basic though. Definitely coming here again.

    My second trip here despite a good jog from Indiana for more expensive sushi than offered in my hometown but Kame offers high quality sushi and a relaxed and refined dining atmosphere I've never had to wait for a table. Slightly high prices for smaller rolls but server was attentive and eager to share some thoughts on the menu which is huge. All our rolls seemed super fresh and were extremely flavorful. The Love Love is an original crazy good roll, props to whoever came up with that one. Happy to have a good sushi spot in this area and will come again!

    Disappointing fish katsu but everything else was yummy!

    This place is super close to my church so my family and I used to walk here for lunch all the time after service. I love their bento boxes and the price is definitely worth for the amount you get! Before the bento box even comes out, they start you off with a warm towel to make you feel fancy. Then, some miso soup followed by a cold soba noodle appetizer thing that I always love. It's tiny but it's technically free. I would rate 5 stars for the tonkatsu bento box that I usually get, but one time I tried to be "healthier" with the fish katsu instead and it literally tasted like fish sticks from a freezer aisle. So I will stick to the tonkatsu from now on.

    Excellent food! After moving here I was craving sushi and took my time looking at a few different places. This location is close to walking distance from the university. It was great and I didn't wait long for it.

    1. Chicken Teriyaki Bento Box

    Really great bento box, it has a ton of food in it and the price isn't bad at all for what you get. It does take a while to be made, so make sure to plan ahead if you're hungry!

    Went here for dinner with a friend. They didn't have many veggie options for the rolls but they customized it for us. They started us off with a complementary miso soup, noodles and a house salad. The house salad was delicious. It had this ginger dressing which was to die for. That was probably my favorite thing here at this place. The service and the staff is nice. The place was pretty clean. Would definitely go here again and get the salad!

    California and Salmon Roll
    Hayley B.

    This restaurant was fabulous. The restaurant itself is very pretty and clean and there were very few people inside which led to very fast service. I got the California roll and the salmon roll both were amazing. They tasted very fresh and you get a good portion of both! You also get a bonus miso soup with the rolls and this little noodle teriyaki salad which were both very yummy as well. Everything was reasonably priced my meal was under $20 with 20% tip and I felt comfortably full. Highly recommend, quick, delicious, and fun!

    "American Sushi" combo
    Jill F.

    I've been to Sushi Kame lots of times, and it's always a great experience. I would definitely say it's my favorite sushi place in the area. They start you out with a free cucumber and somen noodle salad. It's small, but very appetizing. I still can't figure out exactly what the dressing is, but I always drink the extra. After that they give you a (also free) miso soup, which is pretty good as far as miso soup goes. Oh, and the green tea is free and they use real matcha as far as I can tell. It's got a really nice, light, floral taste. I've also been to Yellowfin a few times. While Yellowfin is good, the reason that I like Sushi Kame more is probably their "American Sushi" combo. For about $14, you get three pieces of salmon nigiri, three tuna nigiri, a salmon roll, and the house salad, which is lettuce with ginger dressing. The slabs of fish on the nigiri are nicely cut and usually pretty thick, giving the sushi a rice-to-fish ratio that definitely favors the fish. Speaking of the fish, it has always been fresh and clean-tasting, never "fishy." Admittedly, I've only had non-midwest sushi once, so my basis for comparison is only other sushi in Illinois. When it comes to maki, I usually stick with the simpler stuff that lets you taste the fish more, so I can't offer much of an opinion on the super tempura fried california rolls or whatever. The unagi rolls are good though. I've had the sea urchin here as well, and while it's softer than the stuff at Yellowfin, there's also more of it and it tastes really, really good.

    If I'm going to buy some expensive sushi, I expect them to be of high quality. These sushi rolls were not. I ended up spending $16 to get a three roll special of California roll, spicy salmon roll, and spicy tuna roll. The spicy salmon tasted like it wasn't that fresh. The service was very amiable. I wish their servers wore name tags so I could thank them by name.

    Love this place. The food is great and it's the perfect place if you're looking for a healthy option.

    My wife and I enjoy sushi. Of the sushi restaurants in the Champaign / Urbana area, this is our favorite. Their White Dragon Maki is fabulous, as is their Love-love Maki. Those two are probably our favorites, while we rotate through many other excellent choices. The service is always friendly. The experience is always enjoyable.

    Ko Fusion - Enjoyed a Beef Bibimbap (Korean Rice Bowl). The rice was nice and crispy!

    This is our favorite sushi place in Central IL! The sushi rolls are fantastic, Korean wings and…read moreseafood cheese roll were great appetizers too!

    The vibes are nice, the interior is inviting and the idea of having a lot of different Asian…read morecuisines seems like a positive. However, the quality of food here does not seem to justify the price point set at Ko Fusion. The menu reflects the fusion aspect of the restaurant. Ko Fusion offers an entire Japanese sushi menu, along with various stir fries, curries, ramen and even Korean BBQ on certain nights. From the multiple visits I have had here, I would not say that they stand at the top in any cuisine, the food is relatively average. First things first, paying over $20 for a single sushi roll is one of my least favorite dining experiences out there. With restaurants charging a little more for an all you can eat experience or even doing buy one get one deals, the sushi roll has to be really, really good to make it worth it. I did not feel that way here at Ko Fusion. In fact, I felt that Flaming Phoenix Roll was good at best and when I finished, I was still starving. I do think there is an effort to import quality ingredients and do a nice job with presentation, but I was definitely not satisfied. On my next visit, I wanted to order a dish as it would hopefully fill me up more. I ordered their Bul Go Kee and at $32 dollars, I was really was hoping it would be a standout dish. The food was alright, but again, could not justify the price point set for the dish. Not only that, I am looking back on the menu and realize that I never got the lettuce wrap portion of the meal. The beef itself had some decent flavor and was tender, so it at least wasn't a bad dish. I just was left feeling like I did not get my money's worth. Would I recommend this place for nicer occasions? I guess so. However, I would go so far to make this your go-to Japanese or Korean spot, places that specialize in those cuisines would likely give you a better bang for your buck.
