    Really great sushi in the Old Town area. Space is small and cozy and BYOB always is a plus.

    They have a bar but definitely BYOB. The maki and specialty rolls were better than the individual pieces of sushi.

    If miso soup is a little too boring for you, go for Shiso's spicy miso soup. It hurts so good.

    Best sushi I have had in CHI. Coming from NYC (where food is so much better along with service and overall experience) says a LOT! My favorite place in CHI.
