Sushi used to be good but not anymore.
Spicy tuna was not good very little tuna and they added cucumber to fill the space. Most places put only tuna inside.
Philidelphia roll tasted just like california roll. I did not taste any smoked salmon at all. The signature roll lacks flavor too. It was expensive 17$ only 5 or 6pcs.
I did not liked all the rolls. All lacks flavor and tasted the same.
Would not recommend.

Server was good. But not the food

My friend took me here to eat & wow, super yummy.
I seriously can't read apparently because I thought I ordered shrimp tempura with rice etc lol NO I ordered rolls. BUT what a great mistake, the shrimp tempura roll was so flavorfull!!! I am still craving it.
Everything was delicious and my friend enjoyed their meal too.
Can't wait to return!!!

This is the best sushi available in the suburbs, and it is right next to Mitsuwa Market!!!
The chefs are kind, portions are appropriate, uni is almost always available, along with specials such as toro and the occasional hamachi collar!!! Not to mention that they also offer real wasabi, which is a must try for those who have yet to experience.
I have not experienced many of the hot dishes but have heard from others that everything is amazing!!!
Oh!!! And do not forget to try their ikura with a quail, sweet, salty, creamy deliciousness:)
Thanks for all you do Nikko crew, the community loves y'all!!!

Nikko Sushi started a fire that can’t be extinguished with the Nikko Special Rolls. It’s got an exquisite taste with spicy tuna and is served on a flaming plate. I am fueled for the day and can’t wait to get out there and send it.

Tldr; Give this place a visit and get the Hamachi kama with no eel sauce and a side of ponzu. It's way too good.

We are visiting for work and were craving some soft tofu stew and sushi.

It was very quiet and the service was prompt. The menu is pretty simple (a good thing) with some great classic Korean comforts on there.

We ordered some sushi, soft tofu, then added on a kama and muscles. Do yourself a huge favor and order the Hamachi kama with no eel sauce and a side of ponzu. It's heaven on a plate.

Everything was fresh and flavorful. We have a wonderful time and you should give this place a try.

Clean and quiet spot with somewhat of an European/ urban feel while hidden in the NW suburbs. Open late, until midnight! Excellent customer service. Sushi is made with high quality ingredients and perfectly balanced. I haven’t tried many of the other Korean dishes yet but their bibimbap seems to be way more authentic than your typical Korean fried chicken place. Highly recommend!

We really love this place!!! We’ve been coming for almost 5 years and we really like that the people here recognizes us, remembers what we like and always gives us “on the house” our favorite dish. Believe me, it does make a difference when the owner himself shakes hands with you.
We love the food and staff. We’re so happy we found this place and appreciate the little things and gestures.
