Ordered pickup. Somewhat of a busy intersection with little parking right next to Jefferson Park. I luckily found a spot in front and was able to run in. Small restaurant, greeted and was given my order quickly.We ordered the Mexican Roll, the Godzilla Roll, the Valentino Roll, and the Redeye Roll. Along with an order of calamari.The calamari was good, not great, and needed a lemon wedge to accompany it. Most of the sushi rolls we ordered were signature rolls, a bit pricier. DEFINITELY worth it! Each came with 8 pieces and some rolls were huge. The Godzilla in particular was delicious, both crunchy and fresh (shrimp tempura inside and spicy tuna on top), and felt like double the amount of a regular piece. Easily could have been 14-16 regular pieces. The Valentino was our second favorite (fresh water eel, cream cheese, unagi sauce, among other things and topped with a grape tomato). All our rolls were great and would order them again.

What a fantastic experience here at Gorilla Sushi. Talk about delicious sushi at such an affordable price!I came here on Sunday around noon-ish (they open at 11:30am), and the place was completely empty. We got to sit wherever we wanted. I noticed they had a good amount of to-go orders that were consistently coming through. It's a relatively small sushi spot and gives me authentic vibes. They give you a warm wipe at the beginning to wipe your hands before you eat. They also leave a pitcher of water with you which is nice. On all the tables there's a jar with napkins, reusable chopsticks, and straws which is convenient.Our server was soooo sweet. Very attentive and polite! She was precoppied later once we already got our food with to-go orders and came to apologize that she didn't check in sooner which was so sweet. She was totally good anyway, we didn't even notice! Truly a very nice staff.The sushi is what did it. EVERYTHING was beyond fresh, you could tell instantly. I was pleasantly surprised with the inexpensive regular rolls that came so fresh, nicely made, flavorful, and were of quality. All the regular rolls were $3.95, but they also have special rolls which are a few bucks more depending which roll you get. I absolutely loved the spicy crunchy salmon roll and spicy trio roll specifically. I can't wait to come back and try more sushi rolls! Loved this place.

This place is always amazing. I come here very often, and tonight my husband came here to support on small business Saturday. We love that we have such a great byob place so close to the house for date night. The servers are always super polite and the orders always come out quick. Today, I asked the server about the specials in the board and she recommended the salmon teriyaki. Wow! What a great suggestion taste wise and price wise! For $16 you get a nice chunk of salmon, rice with seasoning on top, and a delicious salad along with a side of miso soup. The whole dish was outstanding, even my husband was raving about it (and he's not a big fan of sushi places). I love this place and will remain a regular for a long time.

Last evening we had food delivered from Gorilla Sushi which I had saw a few across Chicago while I was here. I knew I was not gonna be blown away quality wise because of the price point, but it was actually a fantastic meal that more than filled three of use up for a great price. The special rolls have complimentary flavors and overall was a great experience, which is true because I normally take photos, but devoured through them before I could take a pic.

My motto usually is "it's all about the ratios" but lately I think it's become a matter of QUANTITY -vs- QUALITY. The quality was good. The quantity for what was paid was a joke. Granted I chose delivery instead of takeout but that was only because of Yelp not having the option to do takeout. Your girl was feeling anti-social and did not feel like chatting on the phone...SO DELIVERY IT WAS!What I disliked about the ordering process was all of the items ordered did not include the number of pieces you were getting. Except for one. The spider roll.The spider roll was suppose to be 8 pieces. We only received 6. When I went back to double check, the number of pieces weren't listed out post payment on the receipt. Was I gaslighting myself ? Was the sushi gaslighting me? A saga..The rest of the sushi rolls were only 4 pieces....4...Unbelievable. I am still hungry. 3 gyozas for 4.00 just hurt my soul. Miso soup lacked flavor but I appreciated it not being loaded with sodium. No more late night deliveries but all in all everything was tasty. Still hungry but tasty.Robbery!
