Union Sushi + Barbeque Bar

Black rice sushi sampler $27, spicy tuna , eel & crab , shrimp tempura and sweet potato tempura . BBQ sampler $28, 1 scallop , 2 shrimp jalapeño and 3 meats but cauliflower miso best. Perfect for 2.

Black rice sushi , Kangaroo , Camel,Beef tongue & Escolar! Try them all. All my favs. Great atmosphere, music is awesome, mixologists making the drinks are fantastic. One of my favs when Im in town .

Everything is amazing you can't make a bad pick off of the barbecue and the sushi is so fresh and innovative and delicious. I've been lucky enough to be served by the chef 2 times. great experience

Try the Truffled Tuna , King Crab Legs , Scallops , & Lamb Chops - all were super delicious! For rolls... the Shrimp Tempura , Bay Street Cali (get it w/blk rice ) & Hokkaido were all amazing.

Great ambiance and good sushi . We enjoyed the Scallops barbecue bar and the California roll was unique. Wasn’t happy with the Squid because it tasted burned.#Yeswaa

Oxtail Ramen : Mushrooms , crispy tofu , Napa cabbage , ginger , grilled tomato , parmesan , and slow-cooked, fallen-off-the-bone oxtail meat. A nice melody of diverse textures and big flavors.

Dollar oysters during happy hour , $5 Moscow mules , delicious items off the grill and can't forget about the black rice sushi rolls . Everything on their menu is fantastic!

This place is such a hideaway of great food, great ambiance, and even greater service. They thoroughly tell you about specials and always leave you wanting more. Plus it's really affordable .

For food, gotta have the Belly Roll (as in Pig ) or Devon Roll (think Indian food sushi , and just as amazing as that concept sounds in your head). Amazing cocktails as well -- try the Surprise + Delight

Great place to go with a group of friends for sharing plates. Quick service . On the casual side - great Friday after work spot. iPads for cocktails and specialty roles!

With a sashimi platter we got a variety of fish , which all were fresh & tasty. This is one of few places that I can get plum wine (umeshu), which I suggest if you like sweet wine .

Give server your card and ask him/her to bring the best BBQ and sushi on menu course by course. Best way to experience Union. Peter the bartender on 2nd floor is very friendly . Leave him a nice tip!

The sushi is reasonably priced for the quality and I like the option of black rice (for an extra charge) for my sushi . The service is excellent, and the staff really know their stuff.

Bento box for lunch was really good. The rolls are unique and beautifully presented. A feast for the eyes and the tummy.

Camel Kangaroo Sushi on Black rice Escolar in an amazing sauce. This has become a MUST when Im in Chicago. And the mixologist is fantastic

Haven't even tried the entrees yet but I love this place already. Amazing original cocktails ! Try the surprise + delight for the ultimate summer drink !! The truffled tunas also amazing!!!!!!!

Black rice sushi is the best. Love the spicy tuna roll and the truffled tuna . Just as good when ordered take out style.

King crab legs bbq , good but very expensive and small portion. The big plate is barely enough for 2. Fast and nice service. Overall, it is very expensive for the quantity.

Good creative maki rolls but what I like the most is the killer yuzu pie yum!

There’s little offered here to really love, but there’s plenty to like: accomplished cocktails , and duck fat yaki soba noodles with mustard sauce , topped with duck and tossed with crunchy cabbage . Read more

The lamb was succulent! Chef Chao was very personal and showed his passion for his work. The taste - ambiance and the price make this a must stop for anyone.

The lamb chop lollipops are by far the best thing on the menu. Black rice sushi was different, skip the ramen .

Black Rice Sushi Roll Sampler(Hokkaido, Dragon, Spicy Tuna and Devon Roll)

The Truffled Tuna  is a savory serving of raw tuna with avocado , Parmesan , chili fresco and truffle oil . Read more

Dance music meets one of a kind sushi (and dessert ) you can't experience anywhere else. You can't mess this up.

Try the duck fat yaki soba noodles from our 100 Best list: A bowl of everything you could ask for: thick, satisfying noodles in mustard sauce , fatty morsels of duck and crunchy slivers of cabbage .

Everything is delicious. Sushi with asparagus is my favorite. Be sure you still have room for a milkshake .

Hokkaido roll is one of the best. Get it with black rice . Grilled scallop , avocado , masago-mayo, roasted pepper , jalapeno , garlic , wrapped in soy paper .

Don't miss the Uni Alfredo Soba !!! Love the Old City Market Roll: spicy tuna , seared salmon , spicy ponzu , cilantro , green onion , fried okra , wrapped in collard green ! Yummylicious :)

Dollar oysters happy hour ! Fun friendly and satisfying Japanese fare.

The sushi is not the freshest in the city , but you can split the maki rolls and they're unique combinations. Ramen is prob the best dish to get there.

Camel Kangaroo Sushi on Black rice Escolar in an amazing sauce. Incredible food & drinks! Great atmosphere This has become a MUST when Im in Chicago.

The name of the game here is kushiyaki, which boils down to a palatable selection of grilled meat , poultry , offal , vegetables & fish cooked on a 600-degree robata grill. Read more

They have a lot on the menu, including alligator , but all I had was sushi . It was great, though. The service is great and an interesting ambience. I'll give it four stars for the sushi .

Gluten-free eaters who haven’t gotten to enjoy ramen this winter are extra lucky with the option of gluten-free noodles . Read more

Everything is so good! Love the black rice sushi , alligator , etc. Definitely try a few different things.

If you want to try out Union Sushi with some cool new friends, they've partnered with grubwithus.com to host a social dinner on the first Monday of every month.

Absolutely love their sushi , especially spicy salmon . Sooo good , but very crowded place.

The tempura kale chips ! taste just like fried chicken (the spicier ones). Ask for an order or three! They were the best thing I had tonight!

Tasty and inventive sushi rolls . The black rice rolls were great, as was the sashimi cup.

Adam, the head bartender is very nice and makes amazing drinks! Great selection of alcohol :)

Must try: the sparrow is the best craft drink, alligator skewer , mushroom dumplings , prosciutto wrapped scallops and the belly sushi roll (da bomb!).

EVERYTHING IS GOOD. Try it ALL! Sit at Chef Chao's station & ask him to be inspired! You won't be disappointed! Such a nice, friendly , humble guy :)

Highly recommend sitting at the sushi bar . You can watch them make your rolls and they are fun to talk to. Off menu pumpkin dessert is amazing!

happy hour 5-6:30pm everyday. $5 union mules, $1 oysters , $2.5 beef filet skewers , $4 shrimp tempura rolls

King crab legs are good ! But the big version is barely enough for 1 person...

Ask for the Philadelphia, it's off menu but the cream cheese hits the spot!

Get the dollar oysters happy hour special and the king crab . Everything was so flavorful.

I enjoyed the godzilla roll . The duck wing is also worth trying for a fun lunch !
