Sushi Ai - Palatine

Additionally, my daughter ordered one dish but ended up receiving the wrong one, so they had to go back and prepare her correct order. Just when we thought it couldn't get any worse, the waiter finally brought out the potato while we were having dessert—but it was too cold to enjoy. I highly recommend looking for dining options elsewhere!

We have eaten here before and have a solid grasp of Japanese cuisine. Unfortunately, our most recent experience was disappointing and rather average. Most of the dishes felt quite ordinary and lacked creativity. The California roll had an odd flavor and seemed like it was pre-made, while the mixed vegetables were tasteless. Overall, we were not impressed. The restaurant appears to emphasize sushi and sashimi, which may be great, but the other menu items did not live up to our expectations.

We have eaten here before and are familiar with Japanese cuisine. Unfortunately, our most recent visit was disappointing and felt rather mediocre. Many of the dishes were bland and lacked inspiration; the California roll had an off taste and seemed somewhat stale, and the mixed vegetables were flavorless. Overall, we were not impressed. While it's clear they specialize in sushi and sashimi, which may be excellent, the other items on the menu did not meet our expectations.

All the classic dishes that once made this place unique are no longer on the menu. It’s not the five-star restaurant it used to be.

The food is excellent and offered at a great price. The service is attentive and welcoming. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant!
