In Short – A sushi bar backed by large sake bottles dominates one corner of the minimalist-style dining room. Blond wood, dropped lighting, and gray and slate blue walls give the one-room restaurant a cool, mod vibe. Although the well-executed fare, including grilled miso-marinated butter fish, has won high marks, the star attraction here is ultra-fresh sashimi and creative rolls. Sushi chefs churn out popular choices such as the Cherry Blossom, tuna and yellowtail rolled with cucumber and avocado.

fresh cow hollow/marina sushi (gr8 4 lunch)
by steves94123
Its been open for a year...but I just started eating there. I love sushi and was thrilled when Hime opened on Lombard...but they arent open for lunch or on Mondays. This is my new regular when Hime isnt open (and if I want to save a few $s in return for less atmosphere)
- Pros: good. fresh. not too costly
- Cons: nice but less atmosphere than some others

Amazing service and tasty sushi at a very affordable price
by ghustad
My girlfriends and I were planning on eating at different restaurant in the neighborhood, but they had a two hour wait for seating. So we decided to walk back up the street where we had noticed a sushi restaurant. It was about 8pm on the Sunday before Memorial Day, and we were able to be seated immediatly. The dining room was small, but very cute with enough room between tables so you didn't feel like you were on top of your neighbors. The menu was very extensive and offered lots of different cooked and raw selections. Our order came out of the kitchen very quickly and looked wonderful. The sushi was very fresh and the pieces were all very good sized. After our meal, we asked the server to take our picture (we were in town on vacation) and sadly the batteries in our camera died. The sushi chef immediatly asked what size and ran in back to find some for us! Our experience up until then was very good, but that really put it over the top! We all eat sushi on a very regular basis and this is some of the best ever. Not only that, it won't require you to take out a loan or sell a kidney to be able to pay the bill!
- Pros: No reservation required, great service, great value
- Cons: The lighting isn't the best
