Really cute decor. Lovely staff. I love the set up. The tables are ground level which I’m assuming it’s to give a traditional Japanese feel. I am giving the food a 4 star only because I didn’t order food, I got the matcha cheese cake. I’m not a fan of the cheese cake but the food might be good. I can barely taste the matcha. It hardly has flavor throughout the entire cake. It tastes almost like regular cheesecake. $6 seems too high for some plain cheese cake.

Ordered Kuma San for takeout last night. Picked up the sushi and when I got home I was very disappointed with the nigiri. The tuna nigiri looked extremely suspicious and old, I did not take my chance eating it. Super unfortunate. The sushi rolls were ok.

My fiancé and I had amazing food here! The avocado rolls and the asparagus rolls were really good! My fiancé had the bento box (eel) and takoyaki, they were so delicious ! We finished it off with beautiful green cheesecake! Definitely recommend if you’re trying Japanese!

Loved everything about this restaurant. It was my first time having sushi but the food was great and put a smile on my face. Couldn’t recommend any higher.

Wow – this restaurant is a hidden gem. So much thought must have gone into getting the best, freshest fish with exceptional variety. I’ve eaten a lot of sushi in Chicago and this is among the best. No skimping on size either – I ordered the sushi chef’s selection and there were the most beautiful and interesting selections with generous slices. That with a $0 delivery fee if you order on their site will be dangerous as I live nearby but I’m so grateful for a hidden gem like this in the neighborhood. Thank you, Kuma San!

Hello, this place is really awesome! I went here with my parents for about 5 times and it haven’t disappointed me. I really like the Sake Maki salmon sushi, because there’s no cheese in them. In the cafeteria there were lots of beautiful Japanese style decorations, which made the restaurant atmospheric! The staff were really nice and patient. In one word: Perfect! P.S. Sorry if I have any mistakes in this review, I’m from Russia and I speak english a little bad.

I would avoid ordering any sushi with raw fish here. The fish seemed poor quality and I am concerned I will be sick later tonight. Most of the food seemed very poor quality. The miso soup was lukewarm. I stopped eating after a few bites. I sat down on a poorly constructed unfinished plywood bench and saw large pieces of decorative structures standing crooked like they could fall over any second. I figured as long as the food was good the decor wouldn’t matter, but the food was not good. The waitress was very nice and I did appreciate the picture of Goku on the wall.

Ordered pick up, got a generous amount of good sushi for a good price! I got the spicy crab rolls. The person at the counter was great and friendly even in the very brief interaction, I’ll definitely come back whenever I feel like sushi!
