“ Great spot for a light dinner. Everything we tried was great. The sushi was fresh and well made. The grilled chicken was great too. Drinks were refreshing. Everyone was attentive and friendly. Overall I would come back! ”

“ So delicious, fresh, and fast! I live near here and this is a new “go-to”. The staff is also so friendly! I'm excited to try out their game show experience sometime soon. ”

“ best sushi we’ve had in Chicago after 3 months in the city! (Aurora, the server is incredible; great customer service!) will definitely come back. Sunset roll was awesome, very fresh; snow crab was incredible! ”

“ Unbelievably amazing dinner with an old friend. The service was amazing and server was perfect with her recommendations as well. I cannot recommend this highly enough, if you find yourself in Old Town - it's worth the drive even if you're looking for some of the best sushi in Chicago. ”

“ Kamehachi is a favorite of mine. I've been there a number of times and it's always terrific. The quality of the fish is what sets them apart from everyone else. Absolute must have is the Green Turtle Roll, it is an outstanding combination of flavors. I get it every time I go there. Service is great and everyone is always very kind. Good drinks too (I had the Eno Manhattan). Recommended Appetizers: Rock Shrimp Recommended Rolls: Green Turtle Spicy Tuna Dlx Dlx Recommended Nigiri/Sashimi: Otoro Suzuki ”

“ I love this place. Great food People are very nice. Chicago restaurant week perfect. ”

“ We decided to try this place for a date night dinner before going to a show. The food was excellent. fresh and flavorful, and our server, Bolero, was the best! She was extremely knowledgeable about the menu, along with how the food tasted and made suggestions that were spot on. She is everything as a customer would expect. Overall, it's a great dining spot. Thanks! ”

“ I recently visited Kamehachi, one of my go-to spots for Japanese cuisine, and once again, the experience did not disappoint! While I usually opt for their yaki soba or udon (both of which are always perfectly seasoned and hearty), I decided to try something different this time and ordered the chicken katsu. I also indulged in some sushi, including the New York rolls and the chef’s selection of nigiri. The chicken katsu was delightful—crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, served with a flavorful tonkatsu sauce that perfectly complemented the dish. The portion size was generous but not overwhelming, and the presentation was impeccable. The New York sushi rolls were fresh and flavorful, with a great balance of textures. The chef’s selection of nigiri was the highlight of my order—every piece melted in my mouth, showcasing the freshness and skill that Kamehachi is known for. I paired my meal with the Hachi-tini, a light and refreshing cocktail that was subtle in flavor but perfectly balanced. It wasn’t overpowering, making it a great accompaniment to the richness of the dishes. My partner ordered the sunset rolls and the chef’s selection of sashimi. The sunset rolls were vibrant and flavorful, with just the right amount of spice and sweetness. The sashimi was beautifully presented and incredibly fresh, with each slice showcasing the quality of the fish. My partner was equally impressed and couldn’t stop raving about the combination of flavors and textures in their meal. The atmosphere at Kamehachi is another reason we keep coming back. The space is warm and inviting, striking a balance between traditional and modern design. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable, always happy to make recommendations or answer questions about the menu. Overall, Kamehachi delivered yet another memorable dining experience. Whether you’re a fan of sushi, noodles, or classic Japanese comfort dishes, this place has something for everyone. I can’t wait to return and explore more of their menu—though I might be tempted to revisit the chicken katsu and nigiri selection again! Highly recommend it for anyone seeking a consistently high-quality Japanese dining experience. ”
