    Service was great. Dishes were well timed. The food itself was quite good. It’s expensive but good quality. The salmon was a little over cooked. Everything else was pretty good. I will go back. It’s definitely a splurge place. I had 2 glasses of wine, roughly $30, and about $60 for dinner. Not too bad overall. I was not stuffed from my dinner, but felt satisfied. Hope that gives folks an idea of what to expect.

    Food is perfect. Service perfect. Ambiance/decor is outstanding. For an upscale neighborhood sushi place, this is one of the best places in the country. BTW: The vibe is far more “mellow” at the Lincoln Park Halsted Street sushi-San than at the sushi-San in River North on Grand Ave. One is not better than the other, they are just different. I go to both places for a total of four or five times a month.

    Fantastic sushi. Service was great as well, with waitstaff coming by to check on us frequently. The nigiri were well done, and the rolls were very consistent and aesthetic. They of course tasted good as well, and the spicy rolls really do have a kick. The only issue is that I had booked this through open table and it only lets you do an "experience" that you must pre-pay for. I thought it was for the hibachi but it turns out it is for the all you can eat sushi. The staff had trouble verifying the prepaid amount so they had to write down my credit card number to compare it to their open table reservations. This seems to be more a technical thing. It might be better to just have reservations and bill at the end as usual.
