Sai Café — Restaurant in Chicago

This is one of our favorite restaurants in Chicago. Hands down BEST SUSHI spot in Chicago if you ask me. Service is absolutely amazing and welcoming. Jim takes great care of his customers and treats them like family. Johnson and staff are truly Amazing and the whole vibe of this Chicago gem will have you feeling at home and your taste buds Screaming for more. We recommend trying the Salmon on fire, Hamachi Jalapeño, Escolar special, fried rice and all of the soups. 🔥🔥🔥😋😋😋 all those dishes are must tries and please don't forget to ask for fresh Wasabi! If you drink I also recommend the plum wine to finish your experience. (Tim and Alicia,...

I've been to Sai Cafe many times and I always sit by myself at the bar. I frequently see other solo women dining at the bar and I even notice a few who must be regulars. There are also always groups at the tables, but I like to run in and have a bite before my appointments on Halsted or Armitage. They are always so friendly. The food it outstanding. I always opt for the sushi or sashimi and it is always extremely fresh and tasty. I always have a sauvignon blanc, as well. I do have a severe shellfish allergy and they always take care to mention to the chef. It is very clean, as well. I highly recommend Sai Cafe and will be back...

Absolutely delicious food - our party of six ordered a wide variety of drinks, appetizers, entrees, sushi, and maki, and not a single thing was less than delicious. Service was excellent - fast, friendly, and attentive. It's easy to spend over $50 per person for dinner and a drink or two, but it is absolutely worth it for the high quality and flavor of both. Was recommended by a member of our party who is a longtime patron and assures me that it's consistently this great, and after just one visit I look forward to coming back next time...
