" Momotaro is an incredible place for fresh sushi in a classy setting. I was enamored by the atmosphere and decor upon entering. The staff was attentive and helpful, ensuring our needs were met promptly. The food was divine! Particularly loved the charred grilled items and the fresh sashimi options. One of my new favorite sushi spots in Chicago. " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a fabulous night at Momotaro! Celebrating a special occasion, the place was buzzing and vibrant. Our server went above and beyond to make our experience memorable. The sashimi was fresh, and the miso soup had a deep, satisfying flavor. Worth every penny spent for this joyful dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Tasteful food, but service here is all over the place. We experienced some confusion with our orders and there were long waits at times. Nevertheless, the food was delightful. We enjoyed everything from the tuna to the desserts; can't knock the kitchen. I'd go again but hope they improve the service. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Momotaro was a fantastic experience. The highlight was definitely the attention to detail in both service and food presentation. I highly recommend the Tsukune and the seasonal sashimi which was incredibly fresh. My only complaint is that it was a bit crowded, making it hard to enjoy intimate conversations, but overall, an excellent restaurant. " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing sushi experience! Everything is so fresh and authentic, it reminds me of my time in Japan. The service was exceptional; our waiter was knowledgeable and made great drink recommendations to pair with our meal. Each roll was beautifully presented and tasted incredible. I'm definitely coming back to try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, this was a delightful experience, albeit a little expensive. The food was good, but the service didn't quite match the hype surrounding the restaurant; we experienced slight delays. I did thoroughly enjoy the sashimi and the varied menu options available. It made for a fun night out, but next time I think I'll try visiting during a less busy hour. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was the second time I visited Momotaro, and while the food was still delicious, I found the service lacking. Initially, we were excited for the omakase, but the wait between courses was long and left us a bit frustrated. The dishes that did come out were exquisite and fresh, but a bit more efficiency would make the dining experience phenomenal. " (*Curated Review*)
