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 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.

It was a great experience. Food and service were both great, of course. Chef Mike was very interactive and knowledgeable, and there was a friendly crowd that night. Look forward to coming back to omakase in the future
