    Terrific giant rolls, and a very tasty (sorry I'm not remembering the name!) special that had scallops in a yuzu sauce. Ione of my new favorite sushi spots in the city.

    The sushi was good, but I've had better. I would have liked to see more specialty rolls not have cream cheese and not be fried. Our favorite roll was the spicy tuna which was the most basic one. But we still enjoyed our time. The staff was very nice and friendly.

    Amazing sushi! I usually don't like sushi with tuna but their own was very good. The fish tasted very fresh. My friend and I had eel, yellowtail, salmon and tuna. The place is kind of small so not really a place for big groups. The service was great and while we waited for the food (which wasn't long) we admired the anime drawings on the wall.

    We were in Chicago for the weekend, staying with a friend in the Ukrainian Village and were craving sushi. Of all the options available, Yuzu was the absolutely the best one. Good pricing, BYOB, friendly service an bomber maki. This is definitely worth the trip for some killer rolls. You'll be happy tou came!

    Just arrived here from New York and this is easily one of favorite go to spots. The beef short rib skewers are my favorite, but the eggplant, chicken thigh, and pork shoulder are great as well.

    Friendly and welcoming neighborhood spot. The people at the table next to us, recommended the mango and avocado salad as the dish that kept them coming back; we took their recommendation and fully agree -- this salad is delicious. The sushi was also quite tasty; the maki rolls with a bit of added sesame oil were extra-yummy. Very fresh and flavorful. A small complaint -- hot tea costs extra (unusual for a Japanese restaurant) and it was nothing extra - hot water with a tea bag. Overall, however, I look forward to a return visit.
