"There are Sushi By Bou’s all over the place, and they follow the same format: a timed omakase experience with straightforward sushi. The 10-seat Sushi By Bou in the Emily Hotel is no different, although here, you get to sprawl out in the hotel lobby while you wait for your reservation instead of being crammed up against a host stand. Along with 12 or 17 courses in 60 minutes, a meal consists of a lot of '90s hip-hop, and banter with the charming chefs. It’s a fun time and the food is good. Given how expensive Chicago omakase restaurants are, any opportunity to eat a bunch of sushi (let alone in the West Loop, and in a hotel), without feeling the urge to check your bank account halfway through is worth knowing about." - veda kilaru, john ringor
