"Compared to Sushi Lin right next door, Geido is a little more casual, with an a la carte menu and walls covered in doodles from past customers. We like this place for a chill meal when you still want high-quality fish. There’s a long list of signature rolls, like one named for Brooklyn that’s topped with kani salad, but we usually keep our orders relatively simple with nigiri, sashimi, and a big Sapporo on draft (served in an extra-frosty mug)." - bryan kim, hannah albertine, nikko duren, willa moore
"Right next door to Sushi Lin, Geido is a little more casual, with an a la carte menu and walls covered in doodles and paintings from past customers. We like it for a chiller meal when you still want really high-quality fish. There’s a long list of signature rolls, like a Brooklyn Roll topped with kani salad, but we like to keep it relatively simple with some nigiri, sashimi, and a big Sapporo on draft, in an extra-frosty mug. It’s open until 10pm, so it’s also a good post-game move." - willa moore, will hartman, bryan kim, neha talreja, hannah albertine
"This neighborhood Japanese spot has been around since the ’80s, and it seems like not much has changed since then. One of the walls is covered in decades worth of scribbles and paint, and the sushi chefs look like they’ve been bobbing their heads to R&B slow jams while compiling spicy tuna rolls since the dawn of time. There’s never much of a wait, and it’s always packed, so take a seat at the triangular sushi bar, and enjoy the D’Angelo." - bryan kim, neha talreja, carlo mantuano, sonal shah
"This Prospect Heights Japanese spot has been around since the ’80s, and it seems like not much has changed since then. You can get a big bowl of udon for $7, one of the walls is covered in decades worth of scribbles and paint, and the sushi chefs look like they’ve been bobbing their heads to R&B slow jams while compiling spicy tuna rolls since the dawn of time. There’s never much of a wait, and it’s always packed, so take a seat at the triangular sushi bar, and enjoy the D’Angelo." - neha talreja
"This neighborhood staple in Prospect Heights is always bopping, but you never have to wait too long for a table. You’ll have fun reading all the colorful graffiti scribbled on the walls while R&B slow jams play over the speakers. One of our go-tos for impromptu group dinners, Geido serves a solid rotating sushi menu, lots of classic izakaya dishes, and plenty of beer and sake. Most of the menu is under $15, so this place is a great choice if everyone you’re going out with is budget-conscious." - team infatuation
