As someone who is not really about reviews, I wanted to take time out of my day to express how good my experiences have been with this place. i've been here quite a few times and i am always greeted very nicely. The food is amazing and if you want to try something new or have questions about stuff on the menu you should ask. The total vibe this place gives is very calm, and as someone who enjoys a little more quiet and calm environment i highly recommend this place. read more

The food is very poor in the quality of it. I love the service and it is very high quality service. The ambiance is very good. The food could improve by the rib-eye steak only just being served extra rare. read more

Went with a group of 6 women and most got the all you can eat sushi which was around $30. If you plan on getting an app and a few rolls, or more all you can eat is a decent bargain. I had the avocado roll and Boston roll. Both were decent. They were a bit warm though which threw me off. Neither were fried so I'm not sure why any part of the sushi would have been heated. The decor and inside is a bit drab, dark, and needing a makeover. No one got sick so I'll consider it a win. read more

Disappointed in this place how they not show some of the respect when drink is out they not even coming to refill the drink and also not only ask us about about our meal. They need to being more patient with deaf people when try to communicate with the them. But their sushi is alright to eat it. read more

It was clean and quick but incredibly awkward and mid food. My boyfriend and I went one afternoon and were the ONLY people in the entire restaurant and the server was rude and seemed annoyed we had came in. Then, upon ordering, my boyfriend asked for a roll that originally had spicy sauce on it to just not have said sauce on it. When our order came out, of course had the spicy sauce on it despite our request. I immediately pointed it out and the server just stood there and looked at me. Like hello? We kindly asked for no spicy sauce and she didn't offer to fix it or anything. Also - it said no sauce on our receipt so it's not like she rang it in incorrectly? I would not reccomend this place to anyone and definitely won't be going back. The rolls were also small and not worth the price. We also had gyoza that literally tasted like rubber. 2 stars from me was honestly generous. read more

all I can say is that I read all the negative reviews on Toshi Sushi which were negative and I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt, unfortunately I was extremely disappointed with the quality, you get a sliver of fish to the radio of rice. I've been a Chef for 47 years and even the supermarket sushi is way better quality than this place. we were the only customers in the restaurant that alone should have been a warning sign! please save yourself the disappointment and stay away from this place! I don't think they cleaned the sushi case where the fishes is stored in weeks! the sake was the only thing that didn't disappoint us! read more

Worst Japanese restaurant I've ever been to by far. The sake was lousy/sweet. The sushi rice was mush (a cardinal sin for sushi and sashimi). Seaweed wrap was almost impossible to bite through and the tiny sushi fish tasteless; probably leftovers. Avocado/cucumber was newly made and had a good sauce- so that's why the restaurant just made one star. The decor was uninspired and uninspiring. The whole experience felt like an affront to my senses. read more

Maybe I came on a bad day. I walked in and instead of being greeted I was met with "what do you want?". Overall, it in my opinion wasn't good sushi. read more

Good food, reasonable prices, good service. It lacks the "wow" factor to get 5 stars but I've been there more than once. And there's no BS "service fee" added onto the bill. read more

The food is okay. The atmosphere is drab. We like to travel and have had better sushi for the price. Please note: They have a ridiculous policy that they take very seriously. They require that you finish ALL of your rice from the "all you can eat" sushi you order. We ordered 5 meals, 3 of which were "all you can eat" sushi. When I finished, I had a spoon sized clump of rice remaining on my plate. The owner / chef promptly came over and pointed this out. He made a real awkward issue over it. This seemed pretty funny since 2 of my kids had rice bowls and only ate half...Huh?!? We are not interested in paying for food and getting a lecture, lol! We will not be back. Embarrassing! read more

It is hard to find an AYCE sushi as bad as this. First, kids are charged the same as adults. The cream cheese in those deep fried rolls was too much to the point that you could feel they wanted you to get full ASAP. The nigiri sushi were also made very unprofessionally with too much rice and the fish pieces were clearly too small. The rice in the sushi was very plain as if it was just regular steamed rice. And they charged $26... read more

Food was delicious, service quick and courteous!! We will definitely go again next time we are in town.

I dig the atmosphere. It's a good date place I suppose. I got the chef special pan fried Kobe beef with garlic. It was very tasty indeed. My only issue was the meat was fatty. they also raised the prices. The rice was really good- sticky The parts of the meat that were not fatty were very tender. It was OK. read more

Fantastic! Very generous! Love this place. Will absolutely come back. Ambiance is traditional! read more

Every time we come here we are so pleased. The food is so good. The fried rice is the best I ever had. We are adventurous so we always try new sushi off the all you can eat menu. Excellent service too!! read more

Zero rating! Female server is rude and disrespectful! Sushi tastes bad. Do not waste your time nor money in this restaurant. Don't even try their all you can eat option you'll just get rice instead of the fish. Find other place. We don't deserve to be disrespected while dining with my family for a birthday celebration. read more

Toshi Sushi & Grill - Salmon nigiri - Sushi Bars Near Me - Gurnee, Illinois

It was ok- Clean, fast, fresh. Staff was friendly and attentive. Miso was tasty and super hot! Rolls are only 6 pieces. It was both the smallest and most expensive Futo Maki roll ($10.50, usually $6-7) and seaweed salad ($5.50, usually $3-4.50) I've ever had, but luckily I wasn't too hungry. Everything was fresh but there was a certain blandness to the rolls that I can't fully explain. No seasoning on the rice? It wasn't bad, but I struggle to explain it anything other than bland. Typically, the futo maki roll is a party of flavors in my mouth but that just wasn't there. My hubs said the same about his Tuna, Philadelphia and California rolls. So for all that, $34.50 plus tip. Would I eat there again? Sure. Will I drive out of my way to do so? Nah, probably not. read more

Have been coming here for about two years once in a long while. The waitress has an attitude and has AirPods in while serving. The ambiance is completely lack luster and the decoration is just weird. The food is subpar at best. Today I went with my boyfriend and I ordered the AYCE. He just got two rolls off the regular menu. The man who mad the sushi came over to give us the food and strictly told us "no sharing!" And proceeded to wave his hand in our faces. He said that since I got the AYCE, that anyone else could not have any. My boyfriend hadn't even taken a bite of the rice I ordered!! Then the man WATCHED ME from behind the bar for the rest of our "meal". I was so uncomfortable. As if it couldn't get any worse a BUG came crawling out from under my plate. I refused to pay the extra fee for the remaining rolls and food. Plus, the sushi tasted really weird. I will not be coming back and will never recommend this place. read more

Wasn't too sure about stopping by a sushi spot near a popular amusement park, but definitely surpassed our expectations. Quick service, great quality of sushi, and we ordered some specialty rolls to go for the road. We will come to eat here next time we spend the day at Six Flags. Well done! read more

Dry sushi, stale crab Rangoon. 0/10 recommend. I thought that door dash got our order wrong and left out a sushi roll, but they were in the same container and NOT separate at all. Poor presentation and poor quality of food. read more

Hi, so me and my friend absolutely love trying new sushi spots. however this establishment is the worst place that we have tried. they used ingredients that were not ready to be used. the deep fried food was overcooked and extremely bland. everything was super bland and all of the dishes that had cream cheese in them was completely overpowering. I would not recommend this restaurant. rude staff and sushi that I wouldn't let my dog eat. read more

I have a whole family that I may have gotten addicted to sushi. I consider this passing the blessing, since someone did this for me once before, while I lived in Chicago. I think anyone who enjoys sushi knows there is Meh sushi, OK sushi, and I CAN'T STOP EATING THIS DELICIOUSNESS sushi. I had the last one in a place I would frequent in the city, so when I came up here, I was hesitant to scratch my seafood itch. This place is the bomb. I finally gave them a chance, and haven't looked back. I've been there many times, and they are responsible for making at least 4 other family members who had said they would NEVER try sushi, love it. I've fined in and ordered out. The ambience on the inside is OK, but the food is amazing and the people are so friendly. When we order take out, it is always a large order, and they have been great with making up separate trays for each order so I don't have to figure out who's food is who's. I've been back many times and will be back again, and always recommend this place when I meet people that haven't tried sushi before, but are curious. read more

Over priced food not friendly at all Food does not have fresh taste Terrible costumer service from waitress read more

Located in the back of a strip mall. This medium-size restaurant offers grill items sushi items. You can either order off the menu, or go for their dinner all you can eat special. The portions were adequate, although the cuts a sushi or a bit small and the rice was a bit large. The service was attentive. And service with a smile . Would return if in the area again. But not worth a special trip. read more

Been coming to this place once per month for the past 6 years quality service and price is just great it never disappoints

Carried out lunch today. 6 pieces of Salmon sushi and a California roll. Food tasted off. When you walk in, you see a mop and bucket, cleaning supplies, and part of the kitchen with a microwave. $27 I won't go back. read more

Good sushi for all you can eat, has a wide variety of sushi. Really get your bang for your buck I would say. Also a lady complained about a boy working here. All he does is seat people and nothing else. I have been here many times and i have seen there family, the kids sitting at tables with their mother doing their homework. Clearly it's a family business and they are teaching their boy to help out, how to work. Nothing wrong with that. read more

Been here twice with my husband once for all you can eat dinner and once for all you can eat lunch. This has been the worst customer service experience I've ever had at a restaurant the female server was rude both times. The wait time was ridiculous when we were the only people at the restaurant. And lastly the portions of fish are extremely thin & small with a ton of rice.. will not be returning & will definitely not recommend. read more

I'm still new to sushi, so I'm not sure how credible my review is, but for the most part, I liked this restaurant. I thought the spicy tuna roll and clear broth soup (not miso) was good, the service was quick, informative and friendly. The gyoza, something I'm quite familiar with, was some of the best I've had, seriously delicious and delicate. This was my fave item of the night, for sure. I've been craving them since the first and only time I visited the restaurant. I definitely plan to go back for more gyoza! The chicken teppenyaki with noodles was kind of disappointing. The chicken itself was yummy, but I didn't think it came together as a complete dish. The Japanese sodas with keys that make a ball drop and pop, were kinda fun, despite how painful that prolly sounds. Ha! I suppose the price was average, but I'm not sure I thought the chicken teppenyaki was worth the $12 price tag, even with soup and salad. Chef Sonny was quick to answer my sushi questions, and guide me to selections that might best suit me. There was a cute young girl, the owner's daughter perhaps, that checked on us, and danced around and was quite engaging. I did really enjoy the atmosphere and intimate setting; it had a nice, casual but warm and modern vibe. Although I LOVED that gyoza, I haven't found myself rushing back just yet- even though, the gyoza alone deserve 4 stars. I will definitely return to explore more sushi. Stay tuned. ;) read more

Since I am on my phone, I can't type too much but I think my review for Toshi is well due. This place is fantastic! And I mean that. I am very picky with where I get sushi from (for obvious reasons - no one is going to get sushi from the gas station). Sushi is always fresh, chicken and rice are always right out of the kitchen and they are always very kind here. Unlimited Sushi Monday through Friday $14.95 till 3 and $19.95 thereafter. Be warned, you may order as much as you want but make sure you eat what you order though because you pay for what you don't. All in all, I highly recommend Toshi to anyone nearby. Its tucked away behind the Golden Crapell (Correll) so don't get discouraged if you can't find it. 5 stars from me and if I could, I would give a sixth! It isn't easy to get a 5 star rating from me.. the King of Pickyness! Oh.. and remember, if you can't use chopsticks, don't worry! They have forks available for you beginners upon request. read more

A reasonably priced sushi restaurant? With great rolls and nigiri? IN THE SUBURBS?! I've hit the m-f'in jackpot! After frequenting several sub-par sushi places in the Lake County area, I was starting to go through an existential crisis. Am I turning into one of those anti-suburb Chicagoans? Was my ex-boyfriend right about me turning into a snob? Will I ever find a decent place to satisfy my sushi cravings? Tucked away in the heart of the tourist trap of Gurnee lies Toshi. I try to steer clear of rolls that have mayo, cream cheese, or are deep fried so my favorites are the Sky Beauty roll and the ebi or unagi nigiri. All the fish has been fresh and service has been on point. Skip all the chain restaurants in this area and get to Toshi ASAP! read more

I placed an order to go with the lady at the register who was very nice and friendly. After placing my order she advised me that it would be 10min so I sat at the bench....she then asked if I'd like some water while I waited which I thought was a nice gesture. Before I knew it my order was ready...so fast! It was about 5min (: I ordered the Gyoza appetizer and the Maki Combination. They were both delicious and fresh. I will definately be back again!! Overall food was great and service was outstanding!!! read more

The place is always empty, with perhaps one other table. On my fourth venture to the restaurant, I ordered the all you can eat deal as usual, but was feeling very unwell before the food arrived. Needless to say, I was unable to finish my order, and was charged a dollar for all thirteen pieces of uneaten sushi. That is obscene. Most places (even in Las Vegas) charge 40-60 cents per piece, max. Again, I was not new here, so I figured they might cut me a break given the circumstances if I explained it. Nope. Manager was unhelpful. I will not return. As for the food, the sushi is OK, and the rice they use is very good, but they simply use too much of it. The fish is seemingly fresh, but you don't get much in your sushi. Mediocre food and terribly slow service overall. read more

Don't waste your time, money, or calories. It was fine but they make the fish pieces so small and stuff it with way too much rice. The fish was not very flavorful and rice was bland. If you must eat here it is because there is no other sushi place open (or you are stick at the Hilton across the parking lot) read more

The hibachi beef was extremely low-quality meat. All of the fish was virtually tasteless except for the disturbing chemical after taste. This was on a Friday night, is this their best quality? Count me out!!!!!!!! :'(0 read more

We used to go here all the time when the owner was the original owner. When he sold it to his brother, it wasn't the same. The food wasn't the same anymore. Its more meh and blah. However, I tried it one more time. Maybe it was an off day. Nope. Same meh. And the service...disconnected unfriendly server. Today, after a long hiatus away from this place, I thought I'd give it a try again. Food is still meh. However, what made it distasteful more so than anything was the server. This time was worse than I remember. It was as if she was mad I was there. How dare I make her work. Not one smile, kind of non-chalant and non-pleasant demeanor. She made me feel like I didn't want to be there anymore. I was more hungry though more than I was mad. The rest of my stay, she didn't change her temperature at all. Im asian and I knew how asians can be blunt and rude. But MAN!!! You're in a freakin restaurant in a service industry. Try being pleasant and smile for a change! Jeez. You make people not wanna be here. This will be my last time. I gave you chances. No more. read more
