There are plenty of neighborhood sushi restaurants in Chicago, but few offer fish that’s as fresh—and generously portioned—as this Lincoln Park standby. The menu offers several different entrées, but it’s the sushi that packs people into the restaurant’s three laid-back rooms. Any of the sushi creations will delight you, but we especially recommend the rainbow maki with tuna, yellowtail, salmon and avocado delicately wrapped around rice and a crab stick.
