Great service, small restaurant but nice atmosphere. Awesome food! Very creative and a HUGE selection of rolls. They have wine and beer. They will package it to go if you wish. Parking is on the street. Try one of the dragon rolls. Yummy!!! Not inexpensive!

Nice eclectic sushi restaurant tucked away. Nice ambience inside and a wide selection of entrees on their menu. Staff was also very friendly. Sushi was great and prices were very reasonable. I had the Urban Heat signature roll. My husband had the Godzilla roll which were fried. Both tasted really good. We also got a free little appetizer and ice cream with our meal. Our meal came with a salad and miso soup. It was filling and satisfying.

Our favorite place for sushi. I enjoy the atmosphere - comfortable and lively, but not so loud that you canât carry a conversation. Food is consistently good but on more than one occasion, when the restaurant is busier, the service has been below average. Servers are always friendly but it seems as though they canât keep up with the traffic. Most recently, we were seated for more than five minutes before our server introduced herself. Drinks took too long to show up and we had to flag her down for another round. Same deal trying to get and then pay the bill. She did the best she could (and with a smile) but poor service has been the rule lately rather than the exception.

Ramen Misoya: A small Japanese kitchen in a dilapidated shopping center in the greater Chicagoland area. Good thing I don't judge a restaurant by its neighborhood! I first discovered this place via a coworker (and best friend) who came out here for training. He mentioned that Ramen Misoya was the best ramen he'd had in the States. Eager to verify his claims, I gave it a try.EVERYTHING IS DELICIOUS!Takoyaki is on point. The "Ise Miso Ramen" was my favorite of the menu ramen, and they have a curry fried chicken ramen that is to die for, but it's not always available. My wife and I life in Maryland; after she heard how much I was talking about this place, she flew out to Chicago to try it (Seriously.). She loved it.Long story short: They have a location in Downtown Chicago as well as Mount Prospect. Either way, you've gotta give it a try!
