"At $195, Omakase Shoji is as pricey as other special occasion sushi spots in Chicago. But the experience at this sushiya is unlike any other in the city—a 20-course kaiseki menu, where the hot small plates outshine everything else. The quality of fish used for nigiri is excellent and the quick succession of so many large portions in just two hours means you’ll be full enough to skip a second dinner at McDonald’s. And for not-as-special occasions, there’s an a la carte menu of small plates, rolls, and sushi sets available at the bar." - adrian kane, veda kilaru, john ringor, nick allen
