Sushi City in Downers Grove was excellent. Started with miso soup, which was comforting and flavorful. The Naperville roll and Crazy roll were fresh and well made, and the jalapeño bomb was the standout—just perfect. Also enjoyed the chicken yaki, fried scallops, and chicken fried rice, all cooked really well. Finished with a fun tempura Oreo for dessert. Great variety, fast service, and solid quality overall. Definitely coming back.

Sushi City is by far my favorite sushi restaurant. I have been coming here for years and the place only has gotten better. They just completed their third remodel. Now the restaurant has a super sleek and modern aesthetic. They also increased the number of booth seats they have.
This is an all you can eat (AYCE) sushi restaurant and their selection is huge. You get the usual appetizers, nigiri, and basic maki rolls that you would expect from a AYCE sushi restaurant, but this place gives you more! They have always allowed you to order their specialty rolls (their best roll being the torched dragon roll), but they recently added carpaccio plates, ramen, and dessert. Their prices have gone up over time, but I still consider them a great value for everything that they offer you.
And it is not just about quantity and variety. This restaurant upholds its quality. Other AYCE sushi restaurants give you lower quality fish and hide it by smothering it under lots of heavy sauces. But at Sushi City you can taste the quality of their fish (just order a salmon or tuna nigiri and taste how fresh it is).
The wait staff also is amazing. They are super prompt with everything. This place used to have a robot that served the appetizers. It was a fun novelty. The robot disappeared after the last renovation. Hopefully it will come back some day..
I hesitated to write this review since my home town is Downers Grove and this place is pretty well known to those in DG. However, you should know this place is amazing. The evidence of this is that it is the only surviving store front on that side of the strip mall they are located and another AYCE sushi restaurant (that is a fairly well known chain) that used to compete with them on 75th street closed down awhile ago. I love it at Sushi City and hopefully you will too.

The rolls are HUGE and delicious! Our first time here and we expected your typical small pieces so we ordered quite a few things… boy howdy was that a mistake! After 1 round we were stuffed and struggling to finish what we ordered. The restaurant is clean, staff is friendly, and the booths have these cool design to them. They have a great selection of fish, rolls, ramen, and poke bowls. The nigiri pieces are even big with the perfect amount of rice. It’s like non all-you-can-eat dinning, but AYCE!

We’d been coming to sushi city since about 2016 and we use to love it. We recently started going again after the new renovation and while the indoor looks great we’ve experienced more issues now more than ever. From the tip percentages on the tablets not adding up properly, to server pressuring about said tip when denying it on tablet (especially when it was other staff that served our food), and now this last time we found a bug in our salad. As a pregnant woman, I’m already limited on what I order there but now I can’t even feel safe to eat there. As a place that serves raw food, this is not an acceptable standard to have and we will no longer going here.

We came here for our anniversary dinner and we’ve frequently eaten here over the years. Don’t let the name and location fool you, this place can look nondescript from the outside, but the inside packs a huge punch in terms of their newly remodeled decor. The ambiance is very upbeat and the wait staff are all friendly! They took great care in making sure their customers had plenty of seating with coordinated, modern furniture. Since it tends to be busy, expect to wait for a table. We waited 40 minutes to be seated. You check-in electronically and they text you when the table is ready, but totally worth the wait. I counted 6 sushi chefs preparing the food, so the food comes out quickly. The sushi is FRESH & it tastes incredible! We got the all-you can eat dinner option. Loved that they didn’t rush us while we were there. They allowed us to talk and linger at our table without pushing us out of the door. You order thru an iPad, which makes it easier to order what you want and it sends the orders electronically to the kitchen. Super convenient & easy to use! The city of Chicago has a ton of sushi places to eat, but if you’re looking for great all-you-can eat sushi in the suburbs, Sushi city is worth the commute in all directions! Enjoy!

Love the interior! Super modern and futuristic. Service was amazing, food came out not even 10 minutes after ordering. One roll I will NOT recommend is Umami tastes like someone’s foot All the other rolls were insanely good, all you can eat was a good deal and soju is really good!!! Definitely recommend!!!

Just had to shout out Sushi City! The food was out of this world, especially the tempura shrimp and avocado roll. Seriously, that thing was fire—super crispy and delicious.
The whole place had a chill, quiet vibe, which was awesome. It was easy to just hang out and have a great conversation without shouting. 100% recommend this place. I’ll definitely be back for more!

This restaurant did not catch my eye until I was invited to dinner with friends. I’m glad I came across it. I enjoyed it so much I took my husband to lunch here a couple days later, and it was consistent!
Great Value for the ambiance, sushi quality, and service. Other ayce sushi places tend to be rice heavy but not this place. Good variety of nigiri and rolls. Husband tried the raw pieces and they tasted fresh.
Just fyi, dessert is not included with the lunch menu in comparison to dinner.
Coincidentally, John was the server for both my visits and he provided great service consistently. The iPad menu is straightforward.
