Why Isn’t This Place Packed to the Gills. Why isn’t this place packed to the gills with people waiting, for dinner on an early Saturday night?That was the question I asked myself as my wife and I enjoyed a fantastic meal here at the sushi bar ahead of a movie last Saturday. Sure, this isn’t one of the flashy, trendy, hip hop Americanized places to get sushi that are so trendy these days. It is a quiet traditional place for authentic sushi. The sushi is classic sushi, again, not all the experimental or Americanized stuff you might get at some of the hip hop sushi places, it is just properly prepared, very fresh, and very authentic sushi. And it is perfect. We enjoyed four different rolls, Spider, Spicy Tekka (tuna), Spicy Albacore and French. The Spider roll was simply incredible. Of course we had some sushi too, and of note, I had never had Anago (Sea water eel), it was exceptional and is now a new favorite of mine. The most interesting sushi was suggested by the head sushi chef (Itamae?) toward the end of our meal. He told me that they had Aji (horse mackerel) that was flown in fresh from Japan twice a week, and that I might enjoy it. Indeed I did. I wish he had shared this with me earlier in the meal, I would have had two pieces of it, not just one. The sushi chefs were cordial and helpful, our waitress was unobtrusive and polite, though not particularly warm or engaging. And the head sushi chef was obviously thrilled we were having a most enjoyable meal, and ended it for us with a complimentary dish of green tea noodle sushi to share. It was a nice touch to end a wonderful meal. This place deserves to be packed, and if you live in Evanston and enjoy a traditional sushi place with authentic and amazing sushi, then patronize this place before it is gone and we all lament that it is no longer here for us to patronize.
In this restaurant I’ve been treated as an honored guest. It’s easy to be a regular here because once you’ve tried it you just keep going back.
