The food is great, the price is great and you bring your own alcohol; that is everything that a great restaurant should do. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the atmosphere is a little weird. They had some japanese cartoon movie with subtitles on a projector right next to my table. Â I would definitely go back and its a great place to bring friends and a girl on a date.
Review Source:We decided to try Sushi X after a friend recommended it and the 4 star reviews on yelp. Â We were sadly disappointed. Â We talked in to the small space and had a feeling it was going to be great. Â The vibe was good and the place was small and dark. Â The staff was friendly and it started out great.
I typically don't order appetizers but we had just talked about how we wanted to go out for oysters and then noticed that had an oyster shooter on the menu. Â He ordered two just on a whim. Â They came out and I kid you not, the oyster was as big as my hand. Â I am gagging thinking about it... Â Moving on.. Â We ordered the Godzilla roll, the Lava (it was their monthly special) and the Black Widow. Â The Lava roll was the worst of the three. Â Warm and mushy in your mouth. Â Not good. Â The Godzilla was ok but rather bland and the Black Widow, which is a larger version of the spider with a few extras, had no flavor and the soft shell crab felt as if it had been sitting out after prepared for a while. Â
Needless to say, we wont be back and I would never recommend this place to anyone.
I said in my previous review that I have a "love/hate" relationship with Sushi X. So now it's time to be a hater. Â This update focuses on service. We are frequent, long time customers. Â This is my husband's go to place for sushi. Â I'm not a real fan of sushi, but I go along with it for my husband. Â Fast forward to New Year's eve...my husband wants, of course, sushi. My main staple here? Â The wasabi mashed potatoes. Â Outstanding. Â Except tonight, they were out of them. Â So there went my NYE meal. The owner made almost no effort to comp my selection, didn't offer a future order on the house, and really couldn't be bothered otherwise accommodating good customers. Â I love my husband and will do anything for him - but my relationship with Sushi X is over. Â No more.
Review Source:i always passed by this place on chicago and never really gave it a chance until my friend was in the neighborhood and were both craving sushi. this place is literally across the street from me and decided to give it a chance.
i was pretty surprised to walk in and find no sushi bar in sight and pretty much made up my mind that i probably wont like this place. i was WRONG.
im a sucker for all the saucy american sushi rolls but also need my purist nigiri fix as well. their spicy tuna was super fresh, well spiced, and the rice to fish proportion was perfect for me. i've tried their omega and the buddha roll, and both were very delicious. i had their nigiri platter for take out and i was pretty impressed by their attention to detail even for take out.
they have a great lunch special:
1 of their selected rolls + salad + miso soup + drink = $10
(their ginger dressing is really good but i have to ask for it on the side because it comes out drenched in the sauce when i don't. the dressing is great but i just don't like my salad with too much dressing.)
Let me first start this review by saying that I have only had takeout from Sushi X and never eaten there, nor do I plan to. Â The place is small, dark and does not seem to have the best ambiance.
For takeout (which I think is where they get the majority of their business), Sushi X rocks! Â Inventive, delicious rolls and good hot dishes. Â I'm a fan.
Sushi in general is expensive, but for the price, Sushi X's rolls are larger and more delicious than any other sushi place I have tried.
I know that some people won't consider their Godzilla roll a "real" sushi roll because it's got cream cheese and tempura shrimp, but it is so amazingly delicious!
Also try their honey roll, hibachi scallop and R.O.K. bowl.
Yum.
So it's Black Wednesday and the lady and I are in a mood for sushi. (after watching Jiro on netflix.) We look on the net for something close and see a few reviews for this place called Sushi X which we thought looked intresting. After grabbing a bottle of vino we pull up to the front. (Great parking which is a plus.) We walk thru the doors and instantly we are warmly greeted by Steven. We are seated at our table and he goes over the menu and the specials with us and we end up getting into a conversation about "Jiro,Dreams of Sushi." He tells me after seeing that he couldn't wait to get to work. I felt the same way after I saw that too. So we order are stuff from our server Rachel who also was ultra friendly and attentive. I ordered a few pieces of tuna nigiri with ebi and tako. The fish was good. The Ebi marinated very well. My girl ordered a veggie Buddah roll which I tried and thought was out of this world. I also got the Black Widow which satisfied my every expectation.(By the way..Some of the names of the rolls are funny..like the Thai stick and the buddah kush..Someone is a stoner eh??lol).It came with a chili/ponzu sauce which was the perfect fit for this roll. The flavors were above average. To get straight to the point with this place. The Sushi was very good. The service was exceptionally awesome.They made you feel like a long lost friend of theirs.Great service is a big important part of the dining experience in my book and for that they get 5 stars. I am definately a big fan and will be back here for siure in the future..the prices are great too.. SUSHI X is AWESOME!!!!
Review Source:As a fan of sushi, I always look for two main signs of 'good sushi': Reasonable price, and fresh fish. Â I've been to the expensive places a few times, and they are really good - However, you don't get the same feeling at an actual sushi joint.
I do wish that there was a sushi bar @ SushiX, but who am I to tell them how to run things here? Â All I know is that every time I've been here, I've had a great experience, and great food. Same goes for their takeout/delivery food.
One of the best parts about this place is not only the staff, but also the price (and BYOB!). I lived across the street from this place for 3 years, and I just discovered how good it really is. I can't recommend it enough, and am sad that I didn't give it a try earlier.
The only way this place could get better is if they offered a wasabi tobiko roll w/ quail egg.
By far my favorite sushi spot in Chicago. Not pretentious, good quality food, decent service, and reasonable prices.
I HIGHLY recommend the Tuna tar tar. They make the chips homemade and mix it with a chili oil. My husband who hates fish will devour this dish. That is how amazing it is.
BYOB is always a plus.
I do wish they'd put up a website though. I don't like going through secondary sites to see menus or to use as a resource.
My favorite spot for good quality sushi in chicago! I love this place because you get what you pay for. Â You pay a higher price for the signature rolls but you are getting 8+ pieces and the rolls are huge! Some rolls even come with a special sauce. Â My favorite is the veggie roll--it has a name but i cant remember it. buddah maybe...?
All the staff is super friendly and helpful. Â The place is small so make sure to get there before you want to eat in case there's a wait.
I had a small birthday party at this joint five years ago, and just recently got to stop by for lunch. Â This little place still cranks out hits and does so with a casual flair that I love.
Chef Daniel has been there for 10 years, and he was super attentive to our lunch group. Â He gave special Korean side dishes to our vegan friends. Lunch boxes came with a yummy salad and miso soup. Â
The Thai stick roll was the most innovative roll/taste experience I've had in a maki roll for a long time. Â Big points for that since we are now living in such a blah maki roll world where everything is covered in siracha mayo and tempura bits. Â Nice job!
BYOB.
Have to say the space is cozy and was super surprised when I walked in how small it was...only to find that it still served a world full of delicious food. Â
I'm always a fan of BYOB and all the creative options on the menu were mouthwatering! I unfortunately only had sushi but would consider coming back to try an entree. Â
The service was great and the atmosphere was comfortable. Â A great go to spot when you don't want to be bothered by the hip scene.
Don't ever take a first date to Sushi X since the rolls are MEGA and true three-biters. Bring her on the 3rd date and she will love you for life. This places RULES!
I'm not dining at "the X" for the everyday sushi staples; I'm going there for the Red Dragon roll with tempura shrimp, mayo, roe, sriracha, jalapeno, topped with spicy tuna and scallions, the White Tiger with tuna, hamachi, salmon, asparagus, avocado, cilantro, cucumber, jalapeno, scallions, tempura flakes, roe, lime-juice, with wasabi mayo and sriracha, the all-veggie Buddha roll, and others. You know a veggie roll must be darn good if it's being ordered by a bunch of carnivores.
An ever-changing menu keeps things current and interesting. Â BYOB is always a nice touch too. Generous portions encourage group dining and friendly staff simply make this place work! Â

This place looks super ghetto from the outside (it's like a big black box). it's right in my old neighborhood so we had decided to walk there one day. When we first approached it and saw the sign my fiance literally stopped in his tracks and dropped his jaw. I persuaded him to maybe let's just go in and see what it looks like.
Once inside it was small, but nice. Appears to be a popular take out spot because lots of traffic picking up orders while we dined in. This place is BYOB, has some tasty apps and even tastier rolls. The only thing I don't like about it is some of the rolls are TOO big that you can barely fit them in your mouth to chew and enjoy them. We've been a few times now and learned to stick with the non-signature rolls that are so big. Great place, I'd def recommend!
Hands down my fave Sushi spot in Chicago (and Evanston). I do cheat and try other places...but as I'm eating my mediocre sushi elsewhere, I feel guilty and stupid for cheating on Sushi X...i'm a bad girlfriend. But no more...my loyalty is here.
Here's why:
*Sushi is always fresh and the rolls are creative and HUGE
*I could go on and on about the Godzilla, the Mango, the Honey, the spicy tuna...oh lord...so good. Â
*BYOB!!!
*The non-sushi items on the menu are super yum...I take my kids here and they love the rice bowls. Â And these are no "kiddie bowls" -they are filled with culinary delights like short rib, shrimp, an over easy egg and other goodness.
*They project anime films on the back wall and the it seems very "Lost in Translation," yet they don't give off a snooty, too cool for you vibe. Â The owner is often here and is very friendly - always recommending great rolls to try.
*In West Town and always easy to park!
*I could eat here every night. Seriously.
It seems that no matter which sushi spot I try, within any price range, I always go back to Sushi X wondering why I went anywhere else. Â The Honey Roll and Crab Rangoon Roll are hands down the best sushi rolls I've had. Â I love the fact that the place is tiny and they play anime on a projector at all times. Â They also have some great local artists' work displayed and for purchase. Â
Sushi X, you're my hero.
I ordered delivery from here the other day and it was ok.
They do have a unique selection of rolls, but for the price and the quality (or lack there of) with regular rolls, I'd go elsewhere.
For one (hungry) person, I ordered the Honey Tuna, Black Widow and tuna (with avocado added for $1) rolls. Â They were all decently sized, and I ended up w/ half the Black Widow as leftovers. Â But for $41 (including a $3 delivery charge and tip) it was just meh, nothing special. Â
I think if I was in the neighborhood, with a group of people, I would def. check this place out, since it would be easier to try a bunch of things for cheaper potentially and from others' descriptions, the restaurant interior sounds interesting. Â But I will not be ordering delivery again, simply because the cost does not reflect the quality.
How does this place get 4 stars!?
I didn't try the sashimi because I was skeptical, but I'll give it to you that the rolls were decent and yes a plus that they are BYOB.
HOWEVER, above all... where is the sushi bar??? where is the fish coming from? It seems a bit mysterious that it is coming from a kitchen.
Also can my server please tie up her hair? Her hair was so long all the way down to her waist. Sushi hair free please!
Great place for easy, every day kind of sushi!
I prefer Sushi X for takeout or delivery. Their decor is fun, but there are cosier places. With that said, if you do decide to dine in, I recommend going with a small, chill group of friends. I like going with girl friends when we're looking for an easy BYOB evening.
For food, I suggest their honey roll, their Philly with fresh salmon and easy cream cheese (they like to load up on the cream cheese, so easy is still plenty), their spicy boiled shrimp (ebi) add avocado, spicy tuna, and their crab rangoon roll or red dragon roll if you like the big, crazy rolls. I also highly recommend their miso and their creamy ginger salad.
Their rolls are huge, so you likely need only 1.5 - 2 rolls per person. On average, $20-$25/person.
OH HELL YES. Â Sushi X is awesome. Â Why? Â Let me give it to you quick:
1) Â Cool warehouse/Zen look.
2) Â B.Y.O.B. Â Enough said.
3) Â Rolls as big as your head! Â Well, almost.
4) Â Maki is fresh, delicious, and well made.
5) Â Menu has simple to inventive rolls for anyone from sushi virgins to foodie daredevils to enjoy.
6) Â Waitresses know their shit...they don't have to go to the kitchen to get answers.
7) Â They let you substitute and/or design your own roll if you want.
GO THERE. Â You won't be disappointed.
Behold: Dude Sushi. I had just sat down with two female friends when an all-male group sat down next to us. Call me gender-stereotypical, but I thought, now there's something you don't see every day - 5 dudes out for sushi night. Then I took a look around me: all-black walls, our waiter wearing a hoodie, some incredibly violent anime flick playing on a projector, and godzilla-sized sushi rolls. This place is just a few giant leather recliners short of a full-on man cave. Of course, my friends loved the place too, so sushi x is fun for all.
Moving on: Did I mention the ginormous rolls? Because they're ginormous. They're so amazeballs that only combinixtures of words can describe them. Don't be scared of the prices - one roll almost filled me up. You don't need to order two rolls/person. We got the Crab Rangoon, Omega and the Five-0 (bacon & sushi, in it together!?! OF COURSE!!). Also, it's BYOB, and CVS is just across the corner. Extra win. Not too crowded on a Thursday, but not dead either. I would definitely check it out again. Man date, anyone?
LOVE THIS PLACE! LOVE THE SERVICE AND THE AMBIANCE! Â
I am a regular here and I love the sushi here! The fish is so fresh, it melts in your mouth. I love the spicy tuna roll and the yellow jacket maki roll. Â It is also BYOB which makes it so awesome too! The manager Mikey is super nice and accomodating.
I love their portions and their artwork on the walls. Â I feel like family here and I will always come back here for my sushi fix!
great little sushi place, all the rolls i've had are always fresh and really tasty. Â Last time i finally tried one of their "bowls". Â It's a big bowl with rice and veggies and meat and you mix it up with sauce, kind of like a korean bibimpap-type-of-thing. Â Super super great flavor explosion party in your mouth!! Â
Also, love their art pieces on the wall.
This place was spectacular! Just hosted a bachelorette party, and not being from Chicago, had to go off of yelp reviews...
As we pulled up, I have to say it wasn't in the cute chicago-esque neighborhoods that I expected, but once we got inside the team @ Sushi X completely wowed us!
I had pre-ordered for 16 people, and we tried a bit over everything! The roll with bacon is my favorite! Although the spring-roll type rollups were delightful. Love the gyoza, and the tempura mushroom and green beans. So good!
With it being BYOB, we had such a bang for our buck, and all of the people in my party were mucho impressed! I know Chicago has tons of BYOB sushi joints, but this one is definitely a winner!
* Also, we brought in a cake for the table, and they were super cool with that! Thanks!
Damn, what a good find. Â I've got some super cool friends and for my bday lunch Miss Eugenia O. let me pick the place. Â Having heard of Sushi X's crab rangoon roll, we had a winner. Â We walked in on a Tuesday and the place was dead. Â After drooling over their menu we wondered why. Â After checking out the $10 lunch special we decided people must be batshit crazy. Â That, or they have no idea of the awesomeness that exits in this little black box of a place on Chicago.
On to the important stuff. Â Their rolls are huge. Â Got that? Â Huge. Â If you're a size queen, then this is your place. Â We went with the crab rangoon, honey, and sushifruit rolls. Â Damn good. Â The crab rangoon roll was heaven, the honey was tasty (we switched out the tuna w/ salmon - with no problem, I might add), and the sushifruit was simply amazing, with the fruit accenting and giving a unique kick to the sushi, instead of becoming a full on fruity dessert roll. Â They also offer various dipping sauces...um, honey sesame mayo anyone? Â Yum. Â The service was quick and friendly, and they always have rotating artwork on the walls to enjoy/purchase.
We returned a couple weeks later for some takeout, and surprise!  You can grab the lunch special to go.  Score.  My stuffed takeout  bag came with miso soup, a roll, salad, and a pop.  All for $10.  And when it comes to the rolls, they don't crap out on the selection - they give you an amazing choice of 12 rolls, including their delish honey roll.  Oh, and from placing our order to getting our stuff we made it out in less than ten minutes.  Yes, I think I'm obsessed.
Rolls are good and all, but the true test of a good sushi place is the Sashimi. I was not impressed with the quality of fish at Sushi X. It wasn't terrible, but I've definitely had better and there are better choices in the area. We got one of the rolls that the menu called "giant". It should have said "too big to eat". Sushi is meant to be eaten in one bite. These rolls were so big and packed with stuff that I had to eat it in 2 or 3 bites and they just fell apart all over my plate.
Some pros are the small and laid-back atmosphere. I get tired of stuffy sushi places, this one is cool and unpretentious. I also loved the spicy miso soup.
I have had better sushi from a conveyor belt.
The rice was gooey rather than sticky.
The fish was grainy.
It all just tasted like it had been sitting for too long.
The menu and decor need major work as does the care and handling of the ingredients.
The price would have been solid had the food been enjoyable.
Very disappointed since its in my hood.
"Why does the crab in the California Roll look funny?"
"Oh. That's because it's real crab and not crab stick..."
Yep, Sushi X uses REAL crab in its California Rolls (and do not judge me because I enjoy a California Roll...they are a good simple roll that is hard to screw up.) Delish.
In fact, Sushi X was our delivery diva through and through. Miso soup was piping hot. So piping hot, it turned into a miso dessert. Hey, I'm down with that. Who likes her soup cold? Not this girl. Two thumbs up. Nice big chunks of miso too. Edamame was well-portioned and hot.
Spicy tuna was average, but not bad at all. And appropriately temped. You'd think with all the hot, hot, hot food we had going on the sushi might not be so cool. You'd think wrong. Sushi X does sushi delivery right, keeping the hot foods seriously hot and the cool food (like the raw stuff) cool and perfectly preserved in its darling little to go packaging.
Sushi X is a Sushi do for delivery.
Sushi X = Delivery Superstar.
Boasting hands down the most immaculate to-go packaging, Sushi X rocked my sushi delivery world last night. Â I mean, these guys are bringing it with beautiful packaging, leak-proof bags for the soup and the perfect amount of utensils.
My first impression was slight annoyance. Â I was put on hold for about 5 minutes, but I held strong. Â Once I was finally taken off the Muzak hold music, a perfectly nice gal took my order for California, beef asparagus, spicy crunchy tuna and spicy shrimp rolls, a miso soup and extra sides of raw ginger and spicy red chili paste. Â I was a bit put off that they don't have sashimi on the delivery menu. Â Really? Â Bogus. Â
Delivery estimate: 45 minutes. Â Actual delivery time: Â About 30 minutes. Â And the most shocking part was the (very hot) delivery guy was able to find his way to my bat cave of an apartment without calling me for instructions. Â Whoot whoot!
The food? Â Yummers. Â I only partook in a California roll and miso soup (damn diet), but they were very well done and pretty darn tasty. Â The roll was actually a bit on the larger side and didn't skimp on the crab meat, which I love. Â My miso soup had great flavor, although if I had one teensy complaint it would be my soup wasn't quite hot enough for my liking, but when you get soup delivered, the temperature can be hit or miss. Â I'm told the sauce, tempura and mayo-laden beef, tuna and shrimp rolls were delicious. Â I bet they were. Â I hate people who can eat fried food and mayo right now.
Again, I can't say enough about the presentation. Â I was asked how many people would be dining, so I received the perfect amount of chop sticks, soy sauce (yes, I'm a bit persnickety and don't like sharing my soy sauce) and mounds of lovely, delicious raw ginger. Â The rolls were all served in their own foil blanket so the flavors wouldn't merge and everything was non-smooshed and fairly temperature appropriate.
If you're not ordering sushi take-out from Sushi X, you should be.
Totally unexpected sushi bliss.
Scene: Â 7 girls with 6 bottles of wine and empty bellies on a mission for a rocking girls night out. Â I was in charge of picking the place. Requirements: BYOB and a reservation available for 7 lovely ladies at 8pm on a Friday night. Â Sushi preferred.
Sushi X happily took our reservation and had a nice section for us ready to go even with our delayed arrival (extra hair primping and all). We started off the night some crunchy edamame and they were quick to open up our bottles of wine.
The service and the food were equally impressive. They were attentive, but not overbearing, letting us ladies dish out the gossip between bites and slowly order a few rolls at a time. They even spit up the rolls on two plates for each side of the table so sharing was easy.
Everything we ate was gold here. Crab rangoon roll what? Believe me, it's as good as it sounds. The spicy scallop roll converted a table of scallop roll sceptics into believers. As for the classics, the spider roll, spicy tuna and rainbow roll were big, stuffed to the gill (HA) rolls of sushi perfection.
For dessert they split us up a couple of plates of smooth creamy mochi and strongly encouraged us to stay and finish up the rest of wine, even long after the food was gone.
Now that above is an excellent combination for a perfect night out. Can't wait to go back!
Well, I guess it's happening; we couldn't get in for happy hour tonight...
We used to order delivery a lot from here, and it varied wildly, probably depending on how long the sushi had to sit in a car...
But the food has always tasted great when we dined in. We've been going to happy hour once a week for a little while now, not forever but long enough to become attached to our new tradition!
The environment is wacky, for sure, but I like it. Not snooty at all. For some reason there have been babies making a racket in there every time we've gone, but I don't think you can blame them for that, can you?
The only think I wish is that they had nigiri or sashimi, but I know that's their thing, and I'm not really complaining about it...
Crazy "white-boy" rolls as the husband calls them, very creative and delicious.
If there ever was a boutique sushi take away, Sushi X would be it. Â The first thing you'll immediately notice is the amount of attention paid to their packaging. Â They have their own specially designed carry out plastic bag, box stickers, chopsticks, flyer menu and business card (see pictures). Â
Being a bit OCD in my personal time and taking great pleasure in putting stuff away in neat containers, I found it refreshing to find a place that shares my love of organization as each roll was carefully tucked away in a container that looked like it could withstand the harshest of delivery routes (again, see the pictures).
Yes, this is very clever, I hear you say, but as a customer, it gives me great satisfaction when I take away food and the restaurant asks me how many people will be partaking in the meal and then making sure the same amount of utensils are not only included but carefully packaged away for me to enjoy and use. Â Call me a sucker but small things like that carry a lot of weight for me.
The food is outstanding. Â The rolls are decently sized if not a tad on the big size but that's forgivable considering the price you're paying which is a tad on the expensive side. Â The ingredients are plentiful and they do not cut any corners in the construction of their rolls. Â This is definitely a place where both quality and quantity are served.
I adore Sushi-X for so many reasons. I've never experienced the negativities that people are mentioning.
They're a neo-sushi place rather than traditional so there is stuff they serve that you definitely won't find elsewhere in addition to staples like dragon or rainbow rolls. Evidence of their neo-philosophy towards mayo: there's a lot of different kinds they offer up.
What's really great is customizing your roll here since they offer so many different ingredients. My favorite is the mango. Mango is an awesome sushi ingredient and I'm often surprised it hasn't caught on in Chicago like it has elsewhere.
What's also amazing about this place is that it's good for vegetarians. I know it sounds contradictory, but they offer that many vegetable options for their rolls. The Buddha roll, one of their specialties you'll never find elsewhere, is 7different vegetables.
Their specialty rolls are truly special. I can't stand places where their house "specialty" selection reads like a catering menu from Jewel (dragon, rainbow, california, caterpillar, godzilla, spider, etcetera).
Here's a short list of specialty rolls:
Thai Stick - green curry, shrimp, bamboo shoots, basil
Red Dragon - siracha, shrimp, tuna, jalepeno, green onion
Honey - albacore, cucumber, honey sesame, tempura crunch
Yellow Jacket - yellowtail, mango, shitake, avocado
Buddha - lettuce, avocado, daikon, asparagus, cucumber, shitake, green onion, ginger sauce
This place is more than affordable for the quality they provide. I think this place is 10x better than Sushi Wabi because of craftsmenship and presentation. I can't think of another restaurant that delivers sushi with such class and design.
I'm usually turned off by LA style restaurants, and if you are too, go with an open mind. This place is 100% black with anime projected on a wall with some type of electronica (drum/bass, house, trance, etcetera) playing in the background.
It's also not listed on the menu since they've revamped it for the 5th time since they've opened, but this place will customize rolls for you. My favorite has always been the mango, shitake, and yellowtail combination. This is something that'll be new to most people no matter how much sushi they've eaten if don't travel much.
And like I've said, this is a neo place so a lot of the traditional stuff is lacking. As much as I love miso, I'd much rather have their butternut squash soup or their wasabi garlic yukon mashed potatoes. To further enforce the idea that this place is really nouveau and far from traditional sushi places: they don't offer any nigiri.
What most people understand to be sushi is raw fish pieced in a roll (which is technically maki) or ala carte by piece (which is technically nigiri), but traditionally sushi is all encompassing and means basically snackable hand items of rice with stuff attached and they just love pushing that definition. Thank g-d someone is willing to do it.
Here's something I'm absolutely fanatic about: their rice is top-notch. I've had better, but this is definitely close to the top. I'm seemingly obsessed with rice quality in my sushi, but really, rice the common denominator between all sushi and it usually composes about 50% of the content: the rice NEEDS to be good.
AND for the reviewer who said: " Upon further consideration, we theorize that the sushi isn't even produced onsite. Evidence? Â There are no sushi chefs visible as the food mysteriously appears from behind a curtain."
I have ONE word for you: KITCHEN. I know in most circles, it's a well-guarded secret but I thought should let you in on it.
High-end sushi places (like most high-end restaurants) use a kitchen and not a barista-style bar. That was a habit produced by fast-food sushi in places like Tokyo or NYC, but a good restaurant uses a good fully stocked kitchen. This ain't Benihana's. I don't mean to curt and insulting, but if you're going to attempt to make a clever slam, at least be clever about it.
