Finally, Sushi is Close By

We are so excited! Finally, a sushi restaurant opened in Oak Park, so close by that it could be dangerous for us (and a reward for actually going our gym which is located across the street). There are a couple others we've tried: Sagano Sushi, which tends to get pretty high reviews, but we really didn't like and and Fuji Grill - in a scary strip mall, but reasonable for standard sushi fare. But none that we'd necessarily get really excited about going to. Until now. Sushi House opened up a couple weeks ago in our neck of the woods, and we tried it out for lunch today. The atmosphere was great. We sat in sunken seating next to tall bamboo branches. The food was really good. My favorite is still Sai Cafe, but for a near-by alternative, this is perfect! I had the daily chef's special sashimi meal, Brian had a bunch of different sushi pieces and the kids had their favorite, agedashi tofu and (really cool) kids bento boxes with steak. Both loved them and ate almost everything. We'll definitely be going back.
