"We had been wanting to try this restaurant for a while, and after a recommendation from someone at the gym, we decided to give it a go. First of all, they have an awesome sign out front! The food was absolutely delicious! My kids ordered the gyro wraps (with added lettuce) and they were massive and filled with tasty gyro meat. I chose the chicken entree, which was enough for two meals! It came with four boneless chicken thighs (an amazing deal for $12), and my wife ordered the falafel with a side of babaganoush, both of which were very flavorful. We finished our meal with some baklava, which was also delicious! We highly recommend trying this place out. It's mostly for takeout, with just a few counter seats available (which was fine with us), and they close at 7pm. Unfortunately, we didn't get any pictures of the food because we devoured it as soon as we got home... lol."

"A bit of a let down tbh, was hoping it to be a bit more authentic. ?kepta duona (fried bread with garlic and cheese) was quite good, ?saltibarsciai (cold Beetroot soup) the soup itself was nice but the potatoes it came with so weird, had to leavethem.. ? both balandeliai (cabbage rolls) and apkepti cepelinai (baked zeppelin) was clearly cooked by someone not Lithuanian, asort of a twist on these classic dishes and not very good twist on either of the dishes. Service was alright, atmosphere was OK( just a few tables but it was an early Tuesday afternoon) The beer was great ???? At the end of the day, it's nice to have aplace like this just hope it would be a bit more authentic ????"

"DO NOT ORDER FRESH SQUEEZED ORANGE JUICE. They claim it’s freshly squeezed, but what you actually get is either concentrate or a mix of half concentrate and half fresh juice."

"We visited this restaurant to celebrate our anniversary and arrived during happy hour. We decided to order a few items to sample. Unfortunately, my husband wasn't feeling well that day, so I was the only one who ordered a drink. However, the owner came over and insisted that at least two drinks must be ordered during happy hour, a rule that wasn't mentioned anywhere on the menu. He then pressured my husband into ordering a drink as well. The owner was rude and aggressive in his approach. We were considering hosting a private party here later this year, but after this experience, that is definitely no longer an option!"

"Short and sweet: the best sushi I have ever had Long and sour: everything about the experience was perfect. Located near Naperville and right next to plenty of other restaurants and stores so it makes it easy to multitask and knock out two birds with one stone. The restaurant itself has a cozy interior with booth seating to make it feel more welcoming. There is also a patio with a rain cover so that you can take advantage when the weather is nice. The service we received was phenomenal. A very friendly hostess showed us to our table before we met our server. She gave us great recommendations and took our tastes into consideration. She also stopped by multiple times to fill out water, make sure everything was good, and take away dirty plates. Finally, the best part, the food. It 's hard to explain with words what the tongue can taste but I will try. I 'm not the biggest sushi snob but I can appreciate a good piece of maki when I taste it. We got the chef soon special, smoky bear, something with mango, and a shrimp tempura roll because I always have to try it. It 's hard to rank such good food from worst to best so I will go from good to great. Unsurprisingly, the one I choose instead of having the server choose for me, was the good one. It has smoked salmon on top but I think there was a little bit too much cream cheese inside. It was still better than any other roll I have had but a great roll can 't have cream cheese, let alone enough to slightly overpower the roll. The presentation was great with thin but wide pieces of salmon on top with a sauce drizzled on the side to let the customer choose. Smoked salmon roll 6.8 Secondly is the shrimp tempura roll. The top three rolls were all so close but just like cream cheese in the smoky bear, a great roll can 't have shrimp tempura. I still love shrimp tempura but that is because it 's hard to mess it up, and it tastes good, but is not authentic sushi. It had some flsort of white crunchy bits around the roll that enhanced the texture but the flavor is where it rose to the top. It didn 't taste much like normal shrimp tempura so I could tell it was a higher quality than what you get anywhere else. Just like the other roll, it had a great sauce on the side. Shrimp tempura 8.1 In second place was the mango roll. I call it the mango roll because it had mango on top but you can find out exactly what is in each roll by looking at their menu online. The roll itself was great, but I am a huge fan of mango and fruit, especially on sushi so this one had high expectations. It perfectly met those expectations. As the tiny diced mango never tore apart the roll, slid off, or overpowered the fish. If you are new to fruit on sushi, I highly recommend this one. It also had a bit of spice but the perfect amount where it was just a bit after you already ate the piece of sushi. Mango roll 8.6 Last but certainly not least... The chef soon signature roll. Listed first on the speciality rolls menu, it did not disappoint. I usually prefer salmon over tuna but this roll has singlehandedly changed my mind. The presentation was very demure. It knew where to fit in and it knew where to stand out. The interior of the roll looked very basic, just yellowfin and some accessories but the top lured you in with some edible flowers that have a little flare to an otherwise, standard looking maki roll. The first bite was the same as the last... Perfect. I could eat this roll every single day for the rest of my life and not get sick, unlike some of the distinct flavors in smoked salmon, mango, and shrimp tempura. It executed a pretty basic recipe to perfection. The rice was fluffy yet dense enough to hold the roll together. The nori was almost invisible to my mouth and let the tuna talk. The way I described it in person was creamy , but in the best way. That must have been a good piece of fish because it was the equivalent of a nice marbled piece of steak with the rendered fat that melts in your mouth like butter. Also a great lemony juice that balanced the richness of the fish. Tuna 10/10 perfect."
