The Scene
Sushi chefs call greetings from behind the bar as a crowd of River North professionals and after-work diners fill this sleek, simple storefront. The hum of conversation and power lunches doesn't distract from the main focus here: wonderfully fresh fish. Dine inside for sophisticated comfort, or watch busy Wells Street erupt from the outdoor patio.

The Food
Sushi and maki (roll) options abound and include traditional items like hamachi (yellow tail), maguro (tuna) and spicy tuna, plus several chef's specials. Cooked entrees are limited but include tempura vegetables and shrimp, and teriyaki chicken, beef or salmon. For starters, try edamame (fresh soy beans), which comes boiled and lightly salted. The Naniwa hand roll, a chef's special, is a seaweed-filled masterpiece combining fresh salmon, tuna and yellow tail, crab stick, avocado, cucumber and fish egg--open wide. Tuna avocado maki, a winning combination, is given extra kick with special spicy mayo (though you have to ask for it).
