| - A Champaign 5! An actual 4 :).
The Place: Of the handful of places that serve sushi in the area, this place always has me coming back. It's intimate, quick, and pretty tasty for the price you pay (which is next to nothing if you're a regular sushi eater). The waiting area gets crowded, but that's part of the fun for me. Download the "No Line" app, to "make a reservation" it's very helpful since they don't take actual reservations. My waiter was always helpful, try to sit with Sophia, if possible, and you'll be guaranteed a great evening.
The Food: Classic rolls are dirt cheap and delicious considering that. The signature rolls are elaborate and worth it. The VIP roll comes on a flaming plate if you're looking for some attention and good taste. I love the Playgirl after that, then the Kamikaze. Haven't had their alcohol, but it comes in mason jars and looks delicious. Their ramen is also VERY good and very filling for about ~$13 USD.
The Wait: Again, get the "No Line" app, it's very helpful bc people know this place is pretty worth it and the town is nondescript. Saturday nights have like 1-1.75 hour waits if you just walk up. But, if you're smart about it, it's worth it.
