Review Mirai Sushi Gold Coast - Chicago

Darian J
I was super impressed by Mirai Sushi's Gold Coast location. Just around the corner from my home, it is nice to know that a quality sushi establishment is within arms reach. I absolutely love the design of the dining room here. Yes, it is quite small. However, I believe intimate would be a more appropriate descriptor of the space. It is somewhat dimly lit, and the ambience is quaint, trendy, chic. I was greeted by a warm hostess and sat at the bar along the preparation station as I was dining alone. As this was right at the beginning of dinner rush on a Friday evening, I was lucky to be one of the first persons sat at the bar (within 20 minutes others started filing in). Make a reservation on Opentable to secure your spot! I thought the service here was great. My waiter followed up with me the perfect amount of times throughout my meal, as did the hostess. Given the size of the restaurant, I was secretly demanding great customer service as it's less people to cater to. Mirai did not disappoint on that front. They also didn't disappoint on the cuisine. The spicy mono was incredibly delicious. The tuna tartare was fresh, sweet, and spicy and complimented the savory, spicy octopus. The fried rice was great, however, it would've been perfect if it had more bacon and/or bits of chicken added to the rice as well. My only small complaint overall is that the two sushi masters did not interact with the diners at the bar. This isn't mandatory nor is there a sanction that requires this. However, imagine how esteemed we would've felt had the chefs mingled with the guests that were directly in front of them, watching as they prepared all of the yummies. As other reviewers have mentioned, this is not your commercial style sushi restaurant. You have to really enjoy and know about sushi to appreciate this place for what it is.

As an east coaster it’s hard to believe that some of the best sushi I’ve ever had was in the middle of the continent, but it was! This is a true, authentic sushi experience. The fish was exceptional. The staff is knowledgeable and the food is truly incredible. Absolutely do not miss the octopus sashimi, which is sliced thinly and hit with just the right amount of lemon juice and salt for the fish to shine. I will say I didn’t have the maki sushi, but instead a couple of the chef’s special rolls and some nigiri and sashimi. My feeling is that Mirai’s speciality isn’t the mainstream maki offering, so I went with what felt was their specialty. With those choices I felt really delighted by the experience.

We went for early dinner after attending Timeline Theatre. Food was excellent; service crisp. It’s a small space, but wasn’t crowded at 5:30. Best sushi we’ve had in years.

Sat at the sushi bar and got to talk to the chef as he made everything for me. All was great, super fresh and glad I listened to his recommendations.

Ordered the miso soup, spicy mono, Kano nigiri and wasabi tobiko. All were amazing. Great service. I will definitely be back.

This place is on ground floor of the Hilton on magnificent miles. I don’t expect the Japanese sushi restaurant in USA will be great. However I think that this place is up to standard of Sushi restaurant. So if someone long for Sushi , this may be one of the place available in the area.

One of the best sushi restaurants I’ve ever been. The rolls didn’t need any extra sauce they could be just eaten like that! Very tasty! I enjoyed my miso soup and the price wasn’t too bad.

Amazing. Every bite was delicious. Highly recommend their seven spice sauce as well as their baked king crab nigiri and summer roll. As my friend said: orgasm in the mouth. And of course great sake options as well as a saketini. Service was top notch! Loved our server Daniel. Small and intimate venue. Perfect for a girl's night (like I had), or special night out with your favorite someone. Would go back again in a heartbeat.

We cannot stop enjoying those Sushi at Mirai! We had dinner there last night. Order varieties of Sashimi and Sushi. We had really great time and great dishes. The restaurant is small but very convenient and not crowded. It was so delicious so we couldn’t stop ourself having 5 plates of Nigiri Trio as a bonus 😍😋 Highly recommended!
