Omakase On Me 8.3
Wrigleyville
A high-energy, coursed omakase that treats the night like a show—fast beats, playful bites, and a party-leaning room. It’s strongest when you embrace the format and let the chef’s sequence do the work rather than trying to steer it toward a quiet, traditional sushi bar.
Must-Try Dishes: Ama ebi nigiri, Red curry with wagyu bite, Uni or caviar-topped course
Scores:
Value: 7.2 Service: 8.4 Consistency: 7.9 Food Quality: 8.6 Atmosphere: 8.8 Cultural Relevance: 7.8
What makes it special: A speakeasy-style omakase built as much for fun as for fish.
Who should go: Celebratory couples and friend duos
When to visit: Later seatings for the liveliest vibe
What to order: Chef’s omakase, ama ebi, uni/caviar course
Insider tip: If you want quieter, book the earliest seating.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Metered street parking along Clark and side streets; can be tight after 6pm. Several paid garages within a few blocks.
Dress code: Smart casual to dressy. Jeans are fine, but the room skews stylish and night-out ready.
Noise level: Loud and energetic — conversation is possible, but expect music and crowd noise to be part of the experience.
Weekend wait: Reservations strongly recommended; walk-ins are rarely accommodated for omakase seatings.
Weekday lunch: Not applicable — dinner-focused omakase experience.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Limited — the experience is seafood-forward; notify ahead for possible accommodations.
Vegan options: Very limited — not ideal for strict vegan diets.
Gluten-free options: Some courses can be adjusted, but soy-based items are common; communicate needs in advance.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes if you want built-in energy and conversation starters. The fast pace and shared experience reduce awkward pauses, but it’s not intimate or quiet.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Unlikely. This is a reservation-driven omakase with fixed seatings, so booking ahead is the smart move.
Is it kid-friendly? No. The format, pacing, and late-night party vibe make it best for adults.
Best For
Better for: High-energy omakase nights, celebrations, and groups who want sushi plus a party atmosphere.
Skip if: You’re looking for a quiet, traditional sushi counter or a customizable, slow-paced meal.
