Noburi Sushi: Top of the Line QUALITY Japanese Sushi and Cuisine

Noburi Sushi is Chicago's North Shore premier and top quality Japanese cuisine and sushi. This wonderful establishment is owned by Noboru Nakamura who originally came to New York from Tokyo and then came to Chicago in 1988. He was previously the President of Akai Hana in Wilmette and left to open Noburi Sushi two years ago.

His very fresh ingredients (I can't stress enough how fresh the food is.) come from wonderful vendors from his previous relationships at Akai Hana. The menu is made of very traditional Japanese dishes and are not Chinese or come from any other Asian culture or cuisine. Freshness and quality are very important to Noboru.

His clients consist of families, business people, High School students who bring their parents, Toddlers, Senior Citizens and friends who get together for lunch. The establishment is immaculate and one can eat off the floors. Noboru waits the tables himself and says that customer service is highly important to him and to the employees.

They were featured in the Pioneer Press on May 6, 2010 in an article that was written by Lee A. Litas which speaks highly about their quality and prestige within the community.

The future may hold another restaurant and possibly some additions or substitutions to their menu.

Noboru is very well versed in the cuisine of his homeland and loves customers who understand that his establishment is strictly of the Japanese cuisine (so there is no fried rice, crab Rangoon or chicken cashew) and those who ask for suggestions.

The menu includes vegetable appetizers such as goma, edamame, vegetable croquette and vegetable tempura. The meat appetizers range from goyza, yakitori to Kara Age and a Beef Teriyaki Appetizer. They offer great teriyaki offerings such as chicken, chicken and vegetable to Chilean Sea Bass Teriyaki. There are also different entrees such as chicken cutlets, Vegetable Tempura Oyster Soup and Sukiyaki. They have noodle dishes, various salads and of course countless sushi offerings.

For dessert, they have ice cream, Mochi Ice Cream, Mochi Daifuku and Cheesecake.

This author had the pleasure and privilege of trying the goyza, Chicken and Vegetable Teriyaki, the white rice (which was GREAT!!)the salad with carrot and ginger dressing and an unbelievable piece of cheesecake.

Noboru Sushi is just an absolute wonderful treat and great staycation to Japan. I highly recommend a trip with your family or friends.
