We had a killer dinner at shinsen tonight. The place was completely moved and I couldn’t understand why. It was my first time here.
The food was just fantastic. It took a while because it was busy, but we were warned and waited patiently. I had the thin tamarind noodles. They came with some shrimp cooked in the shell. Which gives the dish the next level of aroma. Intensely flavorful and the right amount of spice.
Also had the black widow roll with soft shell crab. Spectacular presentation and texture.
Our server was super busy but very friendly and kind.
Looks like they have sidewalk cafe in the summer too.

The best place to eat in Evanston. We always take our friends from out of town here and they are impressed. Some from LA saying this is the best sushi they’ve ever had! What to order: ALL of the black rice rolls (Black Widow, Black Dragon, Black Hornet) are absolute perfection— even someone who doesn’t love sushi will be impressed. We love the creamy tom yum ramen and the fried rice (wagyu and shrimp are our favorites). All of the mocktails are also excellent. We’ve been coming here for over four years and the service is always extremely kind and attentive. Presentation is stunning.

5 stars! I just had an amazing experience at this Japanese restaurant. The new Asian twist on classic dishes blew me away. The flavors were recognizable but with a fresh spin. The presentation was stunning and the cooking technique was on point. And the wine selection? Impressive! One of the best I’ve seen in a small restaurant. Can’t wait to go back and try more!

I love elephants, so I always wanted to try Shinsen. I stopped there on Saturday at 3:42 PM. A very friendly Asian person told me to choose any table outside. There were plenty of tables available. He recommended the $20 shrimp roll, but I was not convinced. The roll lacked flavor, and the shrimp was mushy. Although it was plenty for one meal, my total was $35, including a miso soup and the tip. I love the place and the service, but these shrimp rolls did not meet my expectations.

An exquisite culinary experience from start to finish. The selection of appetizers was both diverse and thoughtfully curated, offering a delightful prelude to the meal. Each main course—be it the perfectly grilled steak, elegantly crafted sushi, fragrant rice dishes, or comforting ramen—was executed with remarkable excellence and attention to detail. The dessert provided a soft, refined finish that beautifully balanced the richness of the mains. Service was warm, attentive, and effortlessly professional, enhancing the overall dining experience.

What an incredible experience I had. Staffs and services are so kind and amazing. I have to stop here every time I am nearby Evanston. Japanese A5 Wagyu Fried Rice and the shrimp Pad Thai were ones of the best dishes I’ve ever had outside Thailand and in the U.S. Other dishes are so very delicious, fresh, and you can definitely tell they made it with care and great quality. Highly recommend for anyone. Thank you, Shinsen!

We had a wonderful meal at this restaurant! I ordered the shoyu ramen, and the portion was generous enough that I had some left to take home. The pad see ew was absolutely delicious—my daughter said it was the best she’s ever had! My husband went for the tantanmen ramen, which was quite spicy, but the staff had warned us ahead of time and even offered modifications. He decided to stick with the spice level and still loved it.
Beyond the great food, it was the small touches that made our experience special. We enjoyed a lovely pot of tea, and the waitress kindly brought us tiny cookies to share. These thoughtful details, combined with the delicious meal, truly made a difference. We’ll definitely be back!

Shinsen was very delicious and reasonably priced for the quantity and quality of the food they provided. The staff were very polite and attentive and I highly recommend this for a nice date spot.

Wow!! This place should be Michelin rated. Absolutely incredible taste, display, service, and atmosphere. Every dish we had was unique and flawless. Will be coming back many times over. I’ve never seen/tasted such an amazing sticky rice. Top tier wagyu fried rice and then delicious carpaccio. Don’t skip out on this place!

The soft shell crab is really nice. Sushi is fine and worth the price. The Lychee icecream is fantastic!
