    Sushi Taku is a great place for sushi lovers and anyone curious about sushi. They have everything from basic sushi to sushi you've never even heard of before! We did the all you can eat special for $31.99 per person. Great deal! Everything you order you can absolutely share. The appetizers we ordered were the calamari, softshell crab, and Goza. Exceptional! The calamari was my absolute favorite. We then ordered 2 spicy tuna rolls, eel, salmon, scallop, red snapper, and tuna Nigiri. The spicy tuna rolls were my absolute favorite along with the eel! The spicy tuna rolls were very spicy! Proceed with caution. The eel was amazing. The red snapper was light in taste, dipping it in the soy sauce definitely brings it up a notch. The service we received was attentive. Our waitress was very kind & helpful, she explained everything thoroughly. We did order a calamari towards the end of our day and didn't receive it, they were pretty busy but by that point we were pretty full. We concluded our meal with a miso soup and a macaroon. Both were delicious!!! I can't wait to go back here. The ambience was a modern day traditional sushi bar. Very vibey. We sat inside. They have outdoor seating. The wait time was not too bad we came in around 6 pm and receded immediately. It was packed! So get there early if you can. I highly recommend this place! It is a must, they have something for everybody.

    I'm a little torn with this place. I had a wonderful spot snap dab in a busy walk through. Yet I seemed like it wasn't as busy a Saturday night should be. I'm not complaining, we got sat in 30 mins or less. The food looked amazing but there were subtle hints where the par was slightly dropped. Especially on the nigiri side of the menu , we did two rounds and each round was great for the wait. The ambiance was that of a typical sushi spot with minimal decor and bamboo walls , but it worked. I stayed , I ate , I went for a walk. It was a good vibe.

    A great ACYE sushi restaurant. Only giving four stars because the quality is just good not great. The efficient way they're able to churn out so much sushi is impressive. Our waiter was friendly and attentive--checking in to see if we were ready for another sushi order. Most of the rolls were delicious, while a couple had an overpowering amount of sauce. I recommend the Spicy 2 in 1 roll, if you're a lover of tuna like myself. You should definitely put yourself on the waitlist if you're looking for some good sushi in the neighborhood.

    Love coming here for AYCE!! It's such a fun spot when you're craving sushi and want to try a little bit of everything. The selection is great, the rolls are fresh, and everything we've ordered has been delicious. It's the perfect place for a sushi night with friends because you can keep exploring different rolls and dishes without having to choose just one. Just know you have to finish everything on your plate so try to order a few at a time!

    The food was well presented and fairly priced. Not mild-blowing sushi, but it was flavorful enough. Delivery was prompt and the soup was still nice and hot upon arrival

    We were visiting Chicago and had gotten there around dinner time. We saw this place right down the street from our Airbnb and decided we wanted to go. I noticed it was very very busy and we had to put our name on a little tablet thing that kept track of where we were in line. It took around an hour to get seated but that was partially our fault for not checking if we could sign in beforehand. They have a cute patio area that's pretty big and the restaurant itself had a lot of seating and was gorgeous! It seemed very clean and the staff seemed very focused and nice. We ordered salmon, scallop, some tuna, yellowtail, squid, and a smoked salmon for our mains. We had also ordered their fried oysters, the ika salad, miso soup and their special drink at the time! Everything was beyond good. First off, the price for all you can eat being under $40 per person was crazy to me and I was even more blown away when I tasted how fresh and delicious the fish was. Some of the best tuna and yellow tail I've had! The drinks were yummy and had a nice balance of bitter, sweet, sour, I would definitely order it again. The only thing we didn't love was the oysters... They didn't taste bad but the texture threw us off even though we love oysters. The other thing we didn't love was the smoked salmon nigiri. Nothing particularly wrong just not our taste I would be here CONSTANTLY if I lived in Chicago.

    It's pretty rare for a restaurant to stay consistently great for over a decade, but this place has managed to do exactly that. Time really flies. I've been coming here since Day 1 and it's still my go-to sushi spot in Chicago. In all that time, I haven't found another AYCE sushi restaurant that I would confidently recommend to everyone I know that visits Chicago. I remember when it was around $20 per person when they first opened, and even though prices have gone up to around $32 now, the value is still incredible. The quality has remained remarkably consistent, which is something that's hard to find, especially in an AYCE sushi restaurant. The fish is always fresh, the rolls are well made, and the menu hasn't changed which is good because change doesn't always mean good. What really sets them apart is that they don't skimp here. Even after all these years, the food quality, portion sizes, and overall experience have stayed at a level that keeps me coming back. The service is just as impressive. The staff is attentive, efficient, and always friendly, making every visit smooth whether you're dining with a small group or bringing a table full of friends. This is a place I don't mind waiting 2-3hrs for on Fridays with friends. There are plenty of AYCE sushi spots in Chicago, but this is the one that has earned my loyalty year after year.

    I've never tried such delicious sushi in my life. I came to Chicago for a couple of days and miraculously got this place. I will definitely come back here again.

    My friends went sushi so he came here. I wasn't really hungry. Also I'm vegan so I was like that's probably not gonna be much for me to choose from but they did have a few roll that I did to get. They were pretty good. my friends did all you can eat option honestly only do that if you haven't eaten because she almost didn't finish any of the last rolls and she had quite a bit to eat, but overall was really good would come back. We had a saki bottle. It was pretty decent. The waiter was nice. It was really quiet in there. It was pretty late. It was. I think we went in like a little bit before they close for the night would go back

    Love the sushi here! They even have some great specials like two for one rolls. I was able to get four orders of California rolls and salmon/avocado rolls with a side of rice for only $20 which is amazing. Plus it's super flavorful!

    All you can eat price

    I had a great experience here! They offer both an all-you-can-eat option and the choice to order individual sushi rolls, which is perfect depending on what you're in the mood for. The restaurant was very clean, the food was fresh and delicious, and the staff was friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Service was excellent.I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for great sushi, and I'll definitely be coming back! Note if u get the all u can eat u do have to eat all the sushi, if any left over sushi they do charge u a $1.00

    Donna F.

    A generous servings of AYCE appetizers, salads, nigiris, soup, rolls! Quality is there & it's uncommon for AYCE places to have quality served in every order. Would definitely recommend this place! Lunch at $24.99 & Dinner $31.99 -hopefully prices will stay the same forever! Haha! Wooden tables good for groups & creates a comfy space.

    They under delivered on quality of food. I do not recommend the patio for seating , as it's not maintained well. Very robotic service and robotic feel about the place. Not very authentic or welcoming at all. Disappointing indeed, as I've visited in the past and had a much better experience. The inside is much nicer, so definitely dine in. I did try a product I really liked, so I gave the product the 2 stars. Posted the photos . Jinro, Strawberry, Korean product- delicious.

    My friend doesn't like sushi enough to get the value out of the AYCE, but we still want to go together. Does the whole party have to get the AYCE or can I get the AYCE while my friend just gets their own entree?

    Hi Hooman, Thanks for inquiring. The whole party does NOT have to do AYCE, we simply ask that you… 

    Is this place BYOB?

    No they have alcohol for sale.

    Is this place byob?

    Nope. They have a pretty full bar offering.

    What's the AYCE deal on the weekend?

    It's the same all you can eat during the week, but they charge the "dinner" price all day during the weekend. If you go for lunch during the week, there is a little bit of a discount

    Still BYOB today?

    It's a $10 corkage fee for every bottle of wine & 12 pack of beer. But, they also offer beer, wine, soju, & sake.

    Do you take reservations? Can't figure out how to reserve?

    No reservations, first come first serve! (As of 2/6/22)

    How do you make a reservation?

    They only take reservations for parties 6 and up. Parties less than 6 are first come first serve, or if there's a waitlist you can add yourself there.

    Is this place BYOB?

    Yes. They also sell beer there as well.

    If you get ayce, is everything on their menu available to order, or is there a separate menu?

    Whole menu!

    Does it cost to reserve a table? If yes, will the money be returned after the person who reserves comes on time?

    No it does not cost to reserve a table. Make you everyone arrive on time to get the table.

    Does Sushi Taku offer discounts on birthdays?

    No they don't.

    Is this place still BYOB?

    Yes

    Has anyone experienced being told that they were not allowed to order anymore nigiri? We paid for the AYCE menu but were told around that we were cut off from nigiri after the third round of food. We didn't order all nigiri on any of the other round

    Hi Aly, You should never be limited to the number of rounds you are ordering as we are a AYCE… 

    So is the AYCE for Mon- Friday only for lunch or is it available during dinner well?

    The AYCE is available all day. Lunch price is Mon. to Fri. from 12 to 3:30pm. Saturday and Sunday is all day dinner price.

    Is there a child price for the AYCE?

    It depends on age. I just called and asked about 6 year old and they said $7.99. I saw on a earlier question that Age 7-10 price is $11.99.

    Do they have their own parking lot or is it street parking only?

    Street parking

    Do the take reservations?

    Hi Kevin, we do take reservations for party of 6 or larger. Please call the restaurant directly at (773)252-8258 to check if there’s any openings. Thank you!

    Is Sushi Taku BYOB?

    Yes!! They just change a corkage fee, I believe it's $10

    Is this place byob?

    Yes it is! But they charge a $10 cork fee/service fee. I went two weeks ago. Also, make reservations… 

    Is soft shell crab still served on the ayce menu this time of the year?

    Yes!! I was there on Dec 2nd and we ordered it. Its delicious!

It's really cool in here because you can watch them make the Okonomiyaki in front of you! They had like a set meal going on which included soup and okonomiyaki and dessert, which was mochi donuts.

I will say I didn't really enjoy the mochi donuts but I was so full I couldn't eat them until later so it may have been because they weren't as fresh and got hard.

The shrimp temporary I could've lived without it. It's just fried shrimp very flaky the sauce it comes with is actually really delicious. We kept it for the remainder of the meal. Get the lychee martini it is divine and super smooth, not like a kick in your face! The ambience here is upscale of course you must dress to impress. They have window seating since the weather wasn't permitting for us to sit on the rooftop. Our waiter was really sweet. He was kind of busy so he was forgetful a little bit but super sweet. And we celebrated my birthday there so he got me a little birthday treat for free. I would come here again for the sushi and lychee martini!

I hope to return to Kumiko in the future and share this experience with my loved ones.

    The missus miraculously got a 1045pm table reservation for two (same day!) when we were in the Uber…read moreon the way to Fulton Market (area). The service was great - from checking in (they ask about allergies and whether you're there for food / drink), to ordering experience, to the walkthrough of the menu. I understand why this was on the world's best bars list at one point. We ordered the truffle milk toast, the fukubukuro (signature cocktails) and the pineapple fizz (specials) to start. We both liked the pineapple fizz, missus thought the toast was a bit strong. She did warm up to the fukubukuro though, it's very complex, and you start to appreciate it the more you drink it. She later ordered the Japanese potato salad, and I waited to order the moonrise daiquiri. They did run out if the clarified milk punch as we arrived but they made a spice-forward one that the missus didn't end up ordering. The potato salad was divine - even better than the toast. The kitchen closed though, dang now I wanna try the entire food menu. For last call on drinks (1130pm) we did the moonrise daiquiri (special) for me and the walk softly (signature) for the missus. Definitely worth the last minute reservation, but the bar doesn't seem to be reserved and we always saw seats available while we were there. I will say that michelin guide is well deserved here - it's pricey, and not an everyday treat, but the experience was worth it. Highly recommend for any trip to Chicago, especially first timers, even if you don't drink, they have an entire page of non-alcoholic drinks that we would have tried (missus isn't a drinker usually). The walk softly is definitely more one-dimensional than the fukubukuro, but not in a bad way. The daiquiri flight you have to drink in order - cocktail, sake, hojicha, cocktail. It tastes different the second time around. Overall the staff were attentive but not overbearing, and I never felt pressured to order. It's a great experience - would recommend even for the non-alcoholic patrons out there.

    Rotary Sushi! Yes! Was so excited to go and treat Hubby for a pre-birthday lunch date after a day…read moreat the Japanese Botanical Garden:) The restaurant is nice and clean. The service was awesome, friendly and welcoming. We did plates off the belt and it was a good experience for us! Looking forward to going back again!

    What to Get/Not to Get/Do: All the food is great. What my complaint would be the poor customer…read moreservice, unfortunately Customer Service: Worst possible experience. I have recently got a gift card at Printer's Row location for my birthday. It clearly is for all their locations. Unfortunately, here at Chinatown's location, when they attempted to scan the card, the staff said it does not work and only works at the Printer's Row location. I ended up calling the Printer's Row location and had the team talk to the manager at the Chinatown location, and the manager at the Chinatown location kept their stance that it does not work, stating Printer's Row location does not know why the gift card does not work at the Chinatown location, and will not make any exceptions to accepting the gift card. Thankfully at the Printer's Row location, they are stating it's due to their system being new as they are a new location, and reason why the gift card is not working at all the locations yet which they are now working on to fix so it does not happen to any other customer moving forward. I just wish the Chinatown location showed some compassion to address the issue and still accommodate the inconvenience instead of us having to go back to the Printer's Row location to use the gift card Price: Approximately $20, not including tip for 2 people. There are lunch specials! Ambience: Indoor Seating Overall: Worst experience, especially to follow up my birthday celebration
