Sayuri Sushi Bar

Didn't take photos because the stomach could not wait!The reviews do this place justice, 5-star hands down experience, presentation, environment, and taste! The location is down the block from me and I will now be here all the time! We had the:Ocean Ceviche- I think that was the best ceviche I have ever had, had a kick of spice in the sauce but was well balanced with fresh fish!The Godzilla roll and the Crunchy Salmon roll-were the best versions of these rolls I've ever had. Somehow these rolls were incredible! I don't know what else to say other than amazing sushi!Nigiri of Smoked Salmon- we ended up getting this twice because the salmon was smoked to perfection, tasted fresh, was perfectly delectable. Could've only had this and my review would've been 5 stars all around. I can't wait for my sushi craving in a week to be back! Truly my official hidden gem of Edgewater, and I hope more people find this place because it deserves all the love!

Even for a really good establishment, living up to an excellent reputation becomes increasingly harder as they accumulate more reviews. At over 100 reviews of perfection, I had to check the place out. Located just west of Loyola campus in Rogers Park, this tiny place was exceptional! Just scanning the menu, nothing stood out as being special but once chicken wings and salmon carpaccio arrived, it was quite clear they were well presented and incredibly flavorful. Strongly recommended.

This is a hidden gem. Wonderful service, fresh and quality fish and unpretentious. The chef takes pride in his craft and it shows in the wonderful flavors and meticulous presentation. The service is top notch - they make sure everything is just right and that you have everything you need. We loved everything we tried and can't wait to go back. This is now our favorite sushi spot!

All i have to say is WOW.. I've been to many sushi bars, but nothing compares to the quality and freshness of the ingredients used here to prep your food. The speciality rolls are big and filling. Everything came out cooked to order which made the food hot, fresh, and tasty. Spicy mayo was perfectly crafted to enjoy your sushi with. The service was A+. They make sure you have everything at your need and constantly check up on you. If you are in the area and crave sushi I HIGHLY recommend this spot!

We are so glad to have (finally) tried this sushi restaurant right in our neighborhood! We made the walk from our place to this restaurant for dinner after seeing such rave reviews here on Yelp. Thank goodness for Yelp by the way -- I'm not sure we would have noticed the place had it not been for their reviews on here! There is a neon pink sign at the front, but not as easily noticeable if you're driving by. By foot though, it was easy to spot. Sayuri absolutely lived up to the praise others have shared. The space is on the smaller side (maybe call ahead if you plan on a party of larger than 5?) but is quaint and intimate. Service was wonderful as well. Upon entering, the host and the sushi chef greeted us and you truly felt like they were welcoming you into their home and they were glad to see you. Great hospitality. The food was so beautifully prepared and everything tasted fresh and clean. We started with the seaweed salad (was also hoping to try the crab salad but they were out that night) which always a nice palate starter - fresh flavor with just enough acid. For our mains, we chose the salmon poke, tamago nigiro, sweet potato roll, and unagi avo roll. All of our dishes were beautifully presented, prepared fresh, and full of flavor. We will absolutely be back soon.

I went to have dinner with my boyfriend, and the food was fantastic! They suggested we try the Ocean Ceviche, and it was delicious, especially for spicy food lovers! The service from Tim and Sonia was incredibly friendly and welcoming. We'll definitely be returning!

Absolutely amazing sushi. I did a pick up order but I have been frequenting the bar and it is so delicious. The man who makes the rolls is sooooo sweet and kind, and genuinely cares about your food and experience. Honestly 10/10 place. I had the raw fish rolls but I didn't grab a picture

Given the rave reviews Sayuri Sushi Bar has received, and given that I eat enough sashimi to register as an Oceanic-American? Sayuri shot to the top of my must-try-ASAP restaurant list. I ordered delivery tonight because I was short on time, but I'm looking forward to dining with them in-person.My selections were the Sashimi Queen, Sunset Beach Maki (wrapped in cucumber instead of rice), and Salmon Carpaccio. With a sprightly side salad. I immediately tried the Carpaccio, as I was curious how its truffle oil melded with the salmon. It was a fantastic combination of earthiness and salinity. All of the fish I ordered was incredibly fresh and high-quality - and I'm impressed with the creative liberty Sayuri takes with their dishes, in preparation and presentation (even - perhaps especially - via delivery). Additionally, when I called to confirm that they accepted delivery orders, the woman I spoke with was so gracious and kind.Suffice to say, Sayuri is definitely one of my favorite new local finds.Itadakimasu!

It's a cute spot! 2 tables and a few seats at the sushi bar. Our server sat us and gave us plenty of time to catch up and order, which was appreciated. The rolls were stellar, particularly the negi hamachi! Gyoza were perfectly fried. I'll for sure be back!

Woah! Incredible sushi!!! Chef Tim is the owner and he couldn't be nicer. The fish was super fresh and the rice was cooked perfectly! This is a must go spot!
