Wouldn’t return for the rolls as there was not enough fish portion to the rice. Though the fish was fresh. Cooked food was much better but even some of those dishes they seem to maybe use the same sauce so didn’t provide much variety. Drinks were good.

It was the first time at Sushi-San Lincoln Park. We truly enjoyed the ambiance, the food was amazing and delicious, and the service was exceptional! There were also great menu options for the vegetarians in our party and creative cocktails and mocktails (ie dry January). I highly recommend!

This is a place we will be going back to often. Fantastic service, amazing cuisine, and the ambiance (mainly the lighting) was so well done. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

We had a reservation for 6:30 and they didn't seat us until about 6:50, so that was the only bummer having to wait 20 minutes for our table. However, the cashew and crispy rice salad was my favorite and the ambiance was top notch!

First time dining out on a new year’s eve. Really nice experience, service was attentive during and friendly at the end of the dinner. Food was good, unfortunately some of the choices we wanted to try were out of stock. Drinks were not outstanding but enjoyable, probably in another occasion would be a bit better. Special thanks to the server who made this special date more memorable. Definitely a place worth visiting.
