"With its mismatched cushioned chairs, old dressers, and an old electric organ, Komorebi in Wicker Park feels like a sushi restaurant that’s sponsored by The Brown Elephant. But the combination of vintage furniture and bright, wooden interior is cozy and inviting versus feeling like a claustrophobic maze of nostalgia. The menu has plenty of loaded rolls that all fall around $17, but if you prefer simpler preparations, nigiri and basic maki are all about $8. And whether you’re at this BYOB spot for a low-key date night or catching up with some friends, you can always count on consistently good sushi that won’t require you to take out a loan.
