Editorial Review for Coast Sushi – by J.P. Anderson
The Scene
Bare walls, painted concrete floor and woven leather chairs gives this room a sexy, minimalist vibe, with a scattering of well-spaced tables along a bright, busy sushi bar. There are a lot of couples here, and you can see why--low, low lighting offers plenty of intimacy, and Coast's BYOB policy is a big score for dates wanting to split a bottle.
The Food
Steaming-hot edamame and batter-kissed shrimp tempura are satisfying starts, but just a prelude to stunning signature maki, with flavors rarely seen in local sushi restaurants. Zesty with lime and cilantro, seviche maki is scallop, shrimp and octopus in a roll with star fruit, shallot and sweet mango. Mango makes another cameo in Sun Rise maki, with mint leaves to add delectable sweetness to plump chunks of wasabi-ginger-soy seared tuna. There are fresh a la carte selections, plus teriyaki dishes and salads for those not into the raw stuff.

I thought the sashimi was excellent. large fresh pieces. The guy who took the order was very nice and so was the delivery guy. So, I can't comment on the restaurant it self. I have never been. The sashimi on the other hand. I would definitely recommend it.

I have been to several sushi places in Chicago and Coast is by far the best-- not to mention that it is BYOB! The food is fresh and innovative-- but there are also basic rolls and sashimi for sushi purists.The seseme scallop appetizer is unreal. Great scene too. It can get loud and there is usually a wait, but nothing out of the ordinary for a good restaurant on a weekend night. Overall, fabulous restaurant!
Pros: food, atmosphere, location, BYOB!
Cons: service is nothing special
