Years of experience and a well-traveled, discerning palate are just a couple requirements one might need to put out a roll as inventive and delicious as Sushi Taiyo’s Kobe Harvest Roll.
The Harvest Roll, like the rest of Taiyo’s menu, succeeds in expertly layered flavor— fresh salmon sings against the sweet tempura pumpkin, while the velvety Kobe beef and earthy pumpkin purée that top the roll further ignite the unexpected and delectable blend of each bite. It’s no surprise that the Zhang family meets and exceeds requirements with Taiyo, their latest sushi spot. With 42 years of experience and a pristine track record for delighting Chicago’s sushi connoisseurs (they’re also behind the popular Shine and Rise restaurants) patrons can certainly rely on the Zhangs to raise the sushi bar. And they do. Sushi Taiyo boasts more than a sushi bar; try modern twists on traditional Japanese cooking, like their signature Spicy Lobster dish, dressed with a rich and aromatic yuzu-chili sauce. Patrons can also expect top-of-the-line sake, cocktails, and Japanese beer. The décor enriches every aspect of Taiyo’s menu—there’s refinement and delicacy in the unfinished barn wood, natural stone, and soft lighting that make up this unique space—reaffirming that the Zhangs know exactly how to give Chicagoans an authentic, updated Japanese dining experience.
