If you prefer your sushi served in a trendy nightclub-like space with dramatic lighting, or if your favorite maki is named after an American state, don't go to Kai Zan. If, however, you crave a more adventurous and inspired sushi experience, make a reservation at this charming little jewel box of a restaurant on an unassuming block in Humboldt Park.
Order the omakase menu (from $65) from twin-brother chefs Melvin and Carlos Vicondes, and you'll be treated to the freshest, most creative sushi Chicago has to offer.
