Fodor's Expert Review Kamehachi

$$ Lincoln Park Japanese

It seems like there's a sushi spot on practically every corner in Chicago, but when Kamehachi opened in Old Town in 1967 it was the first, though the restaurant has since moved to a loftier space complete with sushi bar, upstairs lounge, and flowering garden (in season). Excellent quality fish, updated decor, and eager-to-please hospitality keep fans returning, and the combination sushi meals are a relative bargain, running from $19 to $38. Reservations are recommended.
