    Restaurant week menu was pretty much the same as the past few years. However, the portions were so much smaller. Definitely not worth $45 when you can go and do express lunch for cheaper and get a lot more food.

    I cam with my friends for restaurant week. The sushi rolls were good. For the next item we each order something different to try so we had the tofu, chicken sandwich and the pork belly. Of the 3 none of them really stood out to me. The tofu and chicken could have used more seasoning. The pork belly on the other hand could have used less. The best thing that we ordered was off the restaurant week menu which was the gyoza and their take on a dirty martini - I loved how the olives were stuffed with caviar!!!

    The experience and meal plan was great. The only thing we didn't like was prices and the surcharges

    The waitress seemed overwhelmed with the number of people she had to serve, including my date and me at our booth for two. We ended up waiting about 20 minutes for her to bring the to-go containers.Im sure it wasn’t intentional but it was frustrating to see her hustle and nobody else seemed to help.

    Great food and stellar service! Definitely recommend sharing family style. All of the nights are so fresh, definitely recommend a “San Set”. We also got the spicy salmon & shrimp tempura maki, crispy tuna rice, and gyoza! Don’t forget the lychee sake shots!

    Our server was amazing and very hands on! She increased our great experience significantly. My partner was visiting from NYC and he has now dubbed Sushi San his favorite sushi spot in Chicago. Also, the happy hour here is hard to beat.
