Coast Sushi Bar

Needless to say, I'm well overdue for a review on Coast.

Now, it helps that Coast is in my area, but Coast is 90% of the time the place that I need to satisfy my sushi cravings.

It's hard to get into each and every dish on their menus as I've had much of it. What I will say is that one of my personal favorites is their volcano maki along with their white dragon maki. Everything also looks really delicious even before you eat it. Their nigiri pieces are also perfectly put together and always taste fresh.

Coast can get busy on the weekend nights, but that is generally to be expected. They are BYO even though I normally don't take advantage of that. Even though there are a lot of sushi options in the logan sq/wicker park/bucktown area I keep finding myself ordering from Coast because they do a lot of sushi really well.

It's a sushi joint, what do you want me to say?  They have different types of fish wrapped in rice and seaweed.  There's a reason nearly every sushi restaurant on yelp has a 4 star rating.

I equate the act of eating sushi to going to a steak house and ordering a ribeye, a filet and a strip.  Sure those three steaks taste different, but I don't think the difference is pronounced enough to make eating those three steaks, and nothing else, all that enjoyable of a meal.  

Coast epitomizes this theory I have of sushi.  They literally can't do anything any better with the sushi they have and they don't offer innovative choices, so I have no reason to eat here over any other sushi restaurant.

Fantastic sushi restaurant.  I have not had anything here that wasn't absolutely delicious.  I recommend bringing a bottle of wine (BYOB), and ordering whatever is recommended that day by your waiter/waitress.  Their specials are always changing, and there are always new, interesting sushi rolls whenever I come to visit.  Great ambiance, great for groups or intimate dates.  The prices are very reasonable, and food is phenomenal!  They do take reservations, so I recommend making reservations when busy on weekends.

Bonus perk:  You can order for pick up or delivery on their website.
