This family run sushi restaurant has some of the best sushi in Chicago. The pieces are all very high quality and substantial portions. The rolls are creative and tasty. The dragon roll was delicious. Higly recommended. Other favorites in Chicago are Kaze and Tank.

This place was awesome! The quality of their food is a bit better than most Japanese restaurants but the sushi was fantastic. The value was unbeatable too. It's a small neighborhood place that sits about 50 but it's pretty spacious. I'm glad to have discovered it.

What a great place! I would easily compare the food at Tampopo to the more trendy sushi joints. But the beauty is that you get the same great food for about half the price! Great specialty rolls and the staff is always super friendly.

This place is awesome. Daniel, the chef/owner, is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet and will absolutely bend over backwards to serve you. My wife and I are hooked on this place. Outstanding, extremely fresh sushi, reasonably priced.
