    Green tea cheese cake
    Shawn P.

    What a gem. Never heard of Latin Japanese fusion but it works and it delicious. The sushi was delicious and our entrees were very yummy. The katsu curry is wonderful on a cold Chicago night. Warm and filling.

    Rumba w/ cream cheese
    Pan J.

    Tsukiji is a sushi-Latin fusion restaurant with a variety of options (sushi, ramen, udon) and drinks! I got the Rumba with cream cheese (no extra charge) because the server said the Tropical does not have rice and is for people who reallllly like plantains. The chirashi don was good but expensive for what it was. Service was great. The ambiance inside was lively but intimate. Would definitely go back for the happy hour deals and to try the margaritas!

    Mariscos Ramen

    I came here for dinner on Saturday night and was seated right away. The staff were really friendly and the decor was a nice vibe. The prices are a bit high for the quality of food that they provide to you. Spicy Edamame: edamame dressed with raw spicy pepper and sesame seeds Mangonada roll $21: I see the effort in the "fusion" but I wouldn't call this sushi. Salmon Avocado roll $11: this was a good classic roll. It would be nice if there was a better rice to filling ratio. Dragon roll $21: this roll was good. Good ratios of filling to rice and ingredients were fresh. Mariscos Ramen $28: had to wait awhile for this one. The ramen came out way later than the rolls. The flavours were good. The shrimp was perfectly cooked. The scallops were so chewy and over cooked. It seems like they hard seared the scallops and then put them into hot broth to cook it again. Unfortunately, the broth was way too spicy that I had to take it home to dilute it with water to eat it. Overall, I liked the vibe. It was a bit off putting & tacky to be asked to share their restaurant online. The food was mid.

    Tsukiji Sake Bar feels so welcoming the moment you walk in. The staff made us feel at home, and the food was solid across the board. The owner, Jessy, even came by our table to chat and make sure we were enjoying everything -- such a thoughtful touch that made the experience even better. Everything tasted fresh, and I especially liked the karaage and takoyaki. The salmon had a bit more sauce than I usually prefer, but I can see how others might like that style. Personally, I'd enjoy a little less sauce or dressing overall, but that's just my taste. The patio was spacious and comfortable, and I liked that the whole place had an open, roomy feel. They also have a good drink menu that paired nicely with the food. Overall, a very nice spot with a warm atmosphere and attentive service -- I'd happily go back.

    Guacamole fusion
    Jessie M.

    Love this spot! They have a latin fusion sushi menu and drinks. Their margaritas with homemade fruit purees are spectacular! Their sushi rolls are also great! My favorites are the guacamole fusion and lime fusion rolls. The ambiance was also great! They had Latin music and it felt upbeat. Our server was nice, but the food did take a while to come out. That wasn't an issue for us, but just something to note

    Hibiscus margarita
    Clara S.

    I've been wanting to try this spot after seeing a lot of social media posts and came during happy hour. The margaritas were too sweet, and the food items on happy hour were no difference in price. I also was charged extra for a spicy margarita. The lobster wontons were tasty with nice chunks of lobster inside. The rumba roll was interesting and weirdly sweet because of the fried plantain- I honestly wouldn't order this again. The salmon ikebukuro was fresh and delicious. Service was great and friendly. Interesting fusion concept!

    Guava margarita
    Dan J.

    I had some troubles with this restaurant. Although our server was truly really nice and offered great recommendations from the menu, the overall functioning of the restaurant was far from optimal and my particular meal wasn't very flavorful nor worth the hefty price. I booked a table for our party of 4 at 6pm Three if us arrived on time to a relatively empty restaurant, with the fourth person 15 minutes away. We were hoping to get started on drinks. We were told no matter what we wanted to order, they could not sit us until our entire party was here, despite not being busy. When we were finally sat at our table, we knew pretty quickly our entire order, but the staff could not take our entire order at once. Although I really enjoyed the guava margarita (the Mexican part of the fusion restaurant) this resulted in us waiting 20-30 minutes before we can place our apps and mains...dragging out the entire sit in experience to over 3 hours on a not busy Sunday night! There were some highlights of the food, the spicy edamame was delicious and their fatty tuna special was very smooth. However my beef curry don was pretty bland, didn't have the typical starchy potatoes in Japanese curry, and beef was minimal. It definitely was not worth the 20+ charged for it. Although the ambiance of the restaurant was dimly lit and fairly romantic, I wouldn't return give the long wait and overpriced food

    *Chicken Udon
    Elizabeth T.

    Fun spot we found while on vacation in Chicago. We didn't have a reservation so did have to wait 15-20min. It's a smaller restaurant so not as much seating. They have some unique rolls. We enjoyed everything. It was very filling. Especially the chicken udon. Good flavor. Wish we had a microwave in the room for leftovers. The sushi menu has some regular favorites, but also a few unique fusion rolls. I can't remember which one this is but had a shrimp tempura base which I usually prefer a non fried roll. There were too many options to pick from and think I just picked something. Would go back if I were in the area again. The ramen also looked solid.

    Absolutely amazing sushi experience! The sushi here was incredible - super fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. You can tell the chefs put a lot of care into every detail. The owners were extremely friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. They even surprised us with a complimentary shot of sake! A Everything from the ambiance to the service was perfect. Definitely one of the best sushi spots l've been to, and I'Il 100% be coming back!

    *Lime Fusion, *Creamy Scallop, *Escolar Jalapeno
    Pilar G.

    Delicious sushi and Japanese food with a Mexican twist! The couple who own this place are awesome-- come support a local business! To start, our table shared the yellowtail jalapeño and Hawaiian poke appetizers. Both were delicious! The yellowtail was the perfect amount of spicy and I loved the crunchy wonton chips with the tuna poke. We shared three sushi rolls for our main course-- the lime fusion, creamy scallop, and escolar jalapeño. The lime fusion roll is a must try. The lime zest topping the roll makes the freshness of the fish pop. All three rolls were flavorful and I'd order everything we tried again. I also had a guava margarita. I loved the tajin rim and large portion on this. They have cute outdoor seating in the summer and a fun indoor area for when the weather isn't as nice. Service here is good and it's obvious that the owners truly care and are passionate about their food.

    My best friend I popped in for a quick dinner after a long work week. I took a rideshare but I believe there is paid street parking. Once inside and seated, the restaurant is moderately loud and dimly lit. Lots of low lamp lighting; pretty cozy. It would be perfect for a date night! We started with some margaritas and appetizers. We LOVED the margaritas, they were fresh, they have different fruit flavors to choose from and you can get sugar or salt rim. For apps, we had the *Hawaiian Ahi Poke, and *Lobster Wontons. We loved the poke and disliked the wontons. We ordered the wontons knowing they are a customer favorite but the ingredients inside weren't cohesive so we sent them back. For dinner, I had the *Crazy Roll and my best friend had the *Kara Miso Ramen. For the ramen, we removed all of the meat and instead ordered a side of chicken. WOW The sushi was fresh and delicious. I wish I had more room in my belly to order another roll. LISTEN UP! The ramen is absolutely PHENOMENAL!! Perfectly flavored and no need to add soy sauce. The chicken was seasoned and fried to perfection! Service was fairly paced and our server was friendly and attentive. I can't wait to visit this restaurant again.

    Jacky S.

    Cool vibe with Latin music, dim lights, and fun decor. The sushi and margaritas were amazing--no complaints about the food at all. But service was really slow. Even with a 6:30 reservation, it took an hour to place our food order and another hour to get it. Great spot for the food, just be ready to wait.

    Tsukiji Sushi Sake Bar is a must-visit. The ramen is absolutely delicious, packed with rich, flavorful broth and perfectly cooked noodles.Their sushi rolls are to die for, with incredibly fresh ingredients and creative combinations. For example I loved the Tokio it is a Deep fried roll with extra crispy shrimp tempura, avocado, cream cheese, scallions and spicy sauce, the tropical roll it has Fried plantain, cream cheese, avocado, kanikama, choice of fresh salmon or shrimp tempura topped with unagi sauce and spicy mayo.Lets talk about the margaritas I promise you these are some of the best I've ever had-balanced, refreshing, and expertly made. The service is another standout, with both the owners and staff providing top-notch hospitality that makes you feel welcome. They also have a mixture of music catering to the atmosphere. So if you're in the mood for sushi, ramen, or just great drinks, this place delivers 10/10 . It's one of my go to spots whenever I'm in town thank me later

The hostess said we could still be seated but another reservation was coming an hour later. I had never had okonomiyaki before, but I got to try three different kinds plus some yakisoba. We ordered four dishes and shared them among the four of us. We got the pork belly yakisoba, pork osaka style okonomiyaki, shrimp osaka style okonomiyaki, and the mushroom and yuba Hiroshima style okonomiyaki. My favorite dishes were probably the pork ones, but I really liked trying all of them! When our waiter asked if we wanted dessert, we said how the hostess told us we would need to leave by a certain time for the next reservation. However, he said we could order dessert anyway. I thought it was weird the hostess was being so finicky about the time, since usually 15 min late is within reason. We did get the red panda. It's mostly ice and a little ice cream, but it was very good and so cute! I would definitely come here again! It is a bit loud if you have anyone in your party who has trouble hearing. You are also quite close to other people in the restaurant.

They serve the special burger for brunch as well as limited timing at night, so obviously we had to order that.

The avocado dip was so interesting, but I liked a new twist on your average avo toast. I appreciated the toasted bread for being crispy enough without being too hard that it cuts up your mouth. The kalbi was so tender and juicy and a pretty decent portion for the price! I wish the kimchi breakfast potatoes had more kimchi flavor! We made the mistake of eating the burger last. It was still delicious, but I know it would've been 10 times better if we ate it while it was hot. Beware of those jalapeños though! The burger had every flavor: sweet, salty, spicy, tangy, creamy. Basically something for everyone. Service was prompt and friendly despite it being totally packed in there! Reservations are definitely a MUST. Free parking all down the street was also a plus!
