"Dropping the equivalent of a car payment on one dinner may be excessive. But the quality of ingredients in all 18 delicious courses at Kyoten’s dinner is so outstanding, you’ll never wonder where your money went. The menu is constantly changing, but always includes high-quality cuts of fish, rice that’s expertly seasoned with red vinegar, and creative hot dishes like uni risotto with foie gras sauce, topped with another piece of uni. Before you finish your meal, you’ll be counting the days to your next visit." - john ringor, nick allen, adrian kane
"This omakase-only spot is offering sushi bento boxes to-go." - adrian kane
"An intimate eight-seat omakase destination (with a more casual sibling, Kyoten Next Door) frequently recommended on maps of the city’s essential sushi, valued for pristine nigiri and focused, chef-driven service." - Ashok Selvam
"Ambitious chef Otto Phan left his lauded restaurant in Austin, Texas to come shake up Chicago’s sushi scene in 2018. His eight-seat spot provides guests with an omakase experience that showcases deft techniques and top-quality fish imported from markets in Tokyo and Fukuoka. The nigiri is composed of premium delicacies, such as Osetra caviar and fatty toro, and larger-than-standard rice grains seasoned with aged red vinegar. Kyoten’s menu is currently priced at $440 to $490 per person, inclusive of service. In 2023, Phan opened Kyoten Next Door, a neighboring sister restaurant with slightly more casual omakase at $159 a head." - Naomi Waxman
"The Logan Square omakase restaurant whose chef Otto Phan won Chef of the Year for his work there." - Ashok Selvam
