The Scene
The large room is a striking deviation from the grandeur of the Loop address. Floors are inlaid with posh zebrawood; the tables and bar are thick slabs of weathered logs. Art is bold: Prints feature oversized utensils and a wiry sculpture stretches an entire wall. A takeout area is equipped with glass cases offering bento boxes, salads and sushi to harried 9-to-5-ers. Guests in the dining area get shimmering flatware and fancy black chairs, taking time with the thoughtful menu.
The Food
The bar menu offers Pan-Asian bites like smoky yakitori (marinated, grilled skewered chicken) alongside pepped-up sushi like the Shikago Roll, featuring salmon, avocado, cilantro and chopped tomatoes. The dining room menu scores with appetizers like grilled scallops which, texturally, match beautifully with heirloom tomatoes wrapped in rice paper. Larger dishes are surprisingly substantial: Sweet bulgogi-marinated ribeye gets tangy scallion pancakes-perfect for sopping the juices.
Hits: The strength of Kevin's kitchen is clearly evident, even if it's takeout you're after.
Misses: Unlikely location and street-side invisibility leaves guests wanting of energy.
