About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
  • Great for creative cocktails
The Omakase Room at Sushi-san is a culmination of Master Sushi Chefs Kaze Chan and Shigeru Kitano’s combined experience defining the Chicago sushi scene. While the menu and service are informed by tradition, guests can expect a transcendent experience that breaks down the formality and austerity usually accompanying omakase dining. Each dinner in the warm, modern, and intimate ten-seat space features luxury ingredients from around the world. Sophisticated and carefully curated beverage pairings are available to complement the meal.

    This is my fifth or sixth time dining at the Omakase Room. In my opinion it is unquestionably the best sushi experience in Chicago. It never disappoints and never fails to impress. I wish I could afford to eat there nightly.

    This was one of the more expensive omakases I have done and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. Every dish was so delicious and well prepared. The ambiance was fun, calm, and relaxing. The dish I will spotlight is the Uni ice cream at the end of the service. I have seen any other place do this and it was excellent.
