Booze Box

Definitely need a reservation for this place. That said I came on a Friday night without one and waited 15 minutes for a spot at the bar which I think was a cooler experience because we got to see the chefs roll the sushi. The restaurant itself is smaller than that I expected with tables placed incredibly close to one another. But the vibe is very lively and a great late night dinner spot right next to soho house. The rolls itself were good — nothing absolutely amazing about them. The seafood was fresh but the rolls itself were lacking flavor other than the freshness of the fish. There is a crispy rice on their secret menu that I want to try that did look amazing. Otherwise I’d rather go to my local sushi spot than come here.

absolutely loved this place!! we were downstairs and it had such a cool, hip vibe. great music. loved all the sushi l ordered and we all had a few cocktails that were great. staff was super nice and helpful as well especially with my allergies. would go back for sure. seems like a good date spot too

Had a reservation at Booze Box. Their cocktail list was excellent. Decided to try some of their dishes and we were not disappointed. We were thoroughly impressed with their dishes and even tried some drinks that were off the menu. The staff Jennifer went beyond our expectations and had us excited to visit again. Very recommended, would want to make another visit.

Drinks were OK, nothing bad but wasn't impressed with the cocktails. The okonomiyaki was a nice shared starter. Unfortunately though, some of the worst sushi I've had including that from a Kroger in Kentucky. Would be perfect for someone who's looking to taste nothing but added flavors used to mask low quality fish.

We first ate at Sushi Dokku and have continued to do so since in August 2022. We sat on the patio with a friend and had a great experience. The restaurant is laid back and it was very enjoyable being outdoors. The servers are all quite friendly and attentive with refilling water and getting more drinks or food. We ordered quite a variety over our visits but our favorites are the Dressed Oysters get them dressed, it's worth it, the Hot Daisy, and the Miso Salmon rolls. Both are flavorful and have a nice kick to them. Sushi Dokku has turned into our go-to place in West Loop for sushi and it never disappoints! I highly recommend anyone go here for a fantastic meal.

Underground, off the alley, dark! Japanese flair, great cocktail list, sushi! Why would you not try this place? Why? What’s your problem? Oh, good Japanese Whiskey selection also! DJ spinning old school deep house, I may never leave. Look for the arrow.

Fantastic Japanese food! We had miso-tuna sushi, spicy karage, tempura, and even a matcha cocktail. Lastly, special shout-out to the vegetarian “chef’s special”. It was hands down the best vegetarian sushi roll I’ve ever eaten and really appreciated how accommodating the restaurant was to different dietary needs.

Super cute sushi restaurant! The atmosphere is super cute and the sushi and drinks were incredible! I definitely recommend the miso salmon roll and the gin cocktail if you like something on the sweeter side. Great place for a lot of occasions and the staff was super friendly!Food: 5/5

Came on a Sunday evening and there was no wait at all. I sat at the bar and it was fun watching the chefs make their food. I ordered the Daisy Roll and a bowl of ramen. Both are really good, the roll is a bit spicy so beware if you can’t handle spice. Overall, I’d say that it was a bit expensive, both items came out to be $35 which seems a bit much for just one person.

I came here for restaurant week with my brother and a friend, and we all enjoyed our meal immensely! The 5-course dinner was surprisingly pretty filling although we did order an extra roll at the end of dinner. The saba cold noodles were our favorite. The dish felt so simple, but the flavors complimented each other well. The fish was fresh on the nigiri and the maki, and they all tasted delicious. The mochi dessert was a perfect end to the meal. I only gave 4 stars because service was pretty mediocre and even with a reservation, we ended up waiting 20 minutes to actually be seated. I would love to come back again and try the bar downstairs!
