I know a lot of you don’t live in the Chicago-land area, but my sister, Mom and I went to a great place for lunch yesterday!
Okay, I may be biased, since the architecture firm I work for designed the restaurant and friends of mine at work decorated it, but its the third time I’ve been there and the food is awesome!
I actually don’t like Sushi, but they have lots of things non-sushi to eat.
There is a downstairs bar that has music several nights of the week called the Dragon Lounge.
I love these light fixtures!
And this was the view from my table, you can see the chef making all the food!
I know the owner of the restaurant while the construction was going on and he was there and nice enough to give us a complimentary appetizer! Thanks again Bob!
The edamame is steamed and they put salt on the outside shells. It’s so good!
The bento boxes come with Miso Soup. It’s a light broth soup with small chunks of tofu and spinach. I ate the whole bowl!
I decided on the Chicken Teryaki Bento box. It comes with 4 California Rolls, tempurah veggies, the chicken and rice.
This was so good! I loved all the flavors and the chicken is AMAZING!
It was a great time. The worst part was having to go back to work! I wish I could have hung out with my Mom and sister longer!
If you would like to check out Sushi House, visit their website for more information!
I hope everyone is getting ready for Thanksgiving tomorrow!! I can’t wait to see what everyone makes!
Have a great day!
Thanks for the review, don’t live anywhere near Chicago now, but used to live and visit near there often, so I love reading about my old home town (albeit briefly).
And I can only dream, as Kansas has not discovered sushi yet. Looks spectacular
Jenn! Remember in October I wrote about the Japanese restaurant “experience” my friend and I had!? Well, it was this place, but their Naperville location! But, you’re right – the food IS great!
***Oh I didn’t know it was Sushi House Christina, I remember that review you gave. I’ve had nothing but good experiences at this one. And, since I know the owner, I’ll let him know :0)

No no never apologize for a chicago restaurant review!!!! I LOVE japanese and especially chicken teriyaki bento boxes. I’m just like you and love the sauce that goes on the chicken. People always give me a hard time about getting that dish instead of a special sushi roll, but it’s just too good to pass up!! Hope you have an amazing Thanksgiving holiday dear!!
There’s nothing better than sushi out with the girls!! Glad everything was delicious.
Happy Thanksgiving!
I have never tried that place but now I am tempted — the food looks great! Why was Beth in town??? Sounds like you had a great time. Have a great Thanksgiving!
I want EVERYTHING in that bento box – yum! Happy t-giving!
This place sounds great – I will forward to my brother who lives in Chicago area. Happy Thanksgiving!
What a great lunch! Love the design of the restaurant, and the food looks & sounds amazing!
Happy Thanksgiving!
What a gorgeous restaurant! I’m glad to see another non-sushi lover – the fact that you found something yummy to order makes me happy – one of these days I’ll have to venture inside a sushi place!
Happy Thanksgiving, Jenn!
Looks like a cute restaurant! I go through stages liking sushi and not … sometimes I love it and other times, I don’t want it at all …
Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
The food looks absolutely amazing, I am not a big fan of sushi, but the pictures of the chicken sold me!
I am not a sushi fan so I probably would have ordered similarly to you!
Hope you had a very happy Thanksgiving! 🙂
Oh wow! What chic and appealing decor! I do love the decorations there…it’s simple, yet elegant!
Darn I miss sushi…
