Love the brunch menu! Chicken waffle is a must. All the crispy rice patty dishes are good. Sweet potato caterpillars sushi is good. Mimosas are good but small! You can pay with opentable.

Amazing sushi! Start w/ the saketini, oxtail pot stickers, rock shrimp tempura. Get crispy rice spicy tuna jalapeño and escolar "the great white". Both to die for. Then have more "living jewel" sake.

The good vibes are accompanied by an eclectic menu full of the continent’s greatest hits—lemongrass beef lollipops, adobo-braised pork belly, a selection of signature sushi and more. Read more

The food was awesome and felt refreshing. Recommended - Brussel sprouts salad, manchurian cauliflower, crispy rice tuna and lychee luxury drop.

They had a couple of vegan options and all were yummy. We started with the shisito peppers & shiitake edamame dumplings. For entree we shared the sweet potato caterpillar roll. The pad Thai was ehh.

Ask for the vegan menus, from salads and dumplings to pad Thai and vegan sushi, you’ll be definitely happy with the offerings. Even a really nice vegan chocolate cake for desert.
Madeline GullettDecember 25, 2014
They have an entire vegan menu! And a gluten free one. I loved the sweet potato roll. Also, the cocktails were delicious, but not very strong. The pear sake was my favorite drink!

Sunda is doing an East-only a la carte menu with 1) tempura French toast with fresh berries, brown sugar-glazed bananas, and whipped cream, 2) a salmon wrap, and 3) petite NY steak and eggs. Read more

Order anything and everything! I had: the lychee luxury drop, spicy edamame, and the honey ginger glazed long rib and OMG! 🙌🏽 ...so good! The service is excellent!

Since the River North spot has so much fresh fish in rotation, you’ll get to choose from more exotic fare such as escolar and octopus. Read more

Best sushi in Chicago! They have awesome Toro and sashimi. Highly recommend Great White, Tiger Shrimp Tempura, and Peared Sake! Their Rainbow Roll is classic and not too Westernized.

Best sushi I have ever had in the States! After living in South America along the coast for a few years, it was finally nice to find another sushi joint that had truly fresh & tender sashimi!
Mike SilhyMay 2, 2014
Absolutely delicious food, the decoration is really classy and suitable, and the service is just amazing, they know their menu (ask for Ryan) . Only issue is that the place is to noisy!

Amazing sushi and inventive Asian. Kalbi wraps are a must, any sushi with truffle is also a go to. Skip dessert.
Ashley SheeranJanuary 22, 2015
I wish I had more money so I could eat at Sunda everyday. They kill it! So delicious - unexpected menu items that you won't find anywhere else. Brunch is good too!
ElenaNovember 26, 2016
Some of the best sushi places in the Chi! The lobster and wagyu roll and the tuna truffle nigiri are fantastic.
Tony ParkJune 20, 2013
An amazing restaurant, I try to get to it every time I am in town. Try the tempura rock shrimp or the Brussel Sprout Salad. The Lobster Wagu roll...cue the drooling...now.
Natalya LisaApril 28, 2015
Make reservations. If possible request the area on the other of the bar by the windows. Is quaint little quieter and thought is was romantic - different ambience the main dinning area
michelle jimenezNovember 13, 2015
Love the food here. The staff is very helpful. During the week is very enjoyable because it's not too crowded and you can enjoy the atmosphere a bit more.
Jennifer StraubDecember 22, 2011
One of my favorite dining spots! If you spot Billy Dec, be sure to say hello. Scott is the BEST manager around. He takes the time to speak to patrons. (Order the rock shrimp tempura. It's heavenly!)
EdJune 5, 2015
Great and tasty pan-Asian food! Amazing Brussel sprout salads, great duck steam buns and drunken noodles. Will definitely come back to try their sushis.
Chico BaldiniOctober 15, 2013
Try the Grass Tiger Cocktail - a house specialty with jalapeño infused gym
D WNovember 11, 2014
Order several items if your hungry it's worth it, Sunday brunch is a twist on the usual give it a whirl

Came here for our one year anniversary and it was lovely! Really liked the atmosphere, the service was great, and the sushi was really yummy!
MirvettiumJune 4, 2015
Fancy fusion restaurant that does a little bit of everything Asian complete with Buddha statues. Great ambience but fairly pricey. #wifi
Gwen BeattieSeptember 20, 2012
Not sure that it's possible to go wrong here. Definitely try anything with pork belly (steamed buns, pig on a stick, & braised pork belly) & the rock shrimp. Cocktails are to die for!
Derek FromsonMarch 2, 2012
Appetizer: Rock Shrimp Tempura. Entrees: Pan Roasted Duck Breast, Miso-Bronzed Black Curry, two rolls: Sweet Potato Caterpillar and Spicy Tuna. Dessert was a refreshing coconut pudding. Great meal.

Don't miss the Australian Wagyu rib Eye -- it's an indulgent dish that will give you a caveman moment with its presentation of sliced steak and two huge bones. Read more

SEOUL WINGS (gochujang glazed chicken wings, gochugaru spiced, scallions, sesame seeds, crushed peanuts)
Mohammed AlDhaheriOctober 18, 2017
Great Red dragon Sushi & their seafood crispy rice. Tempura shrimp is nice too
Veronica HApril 5, 2013
Go with a group and sit at the Chef's table. The Brussel sprout salad and kale and seaweed salads and edamame shitake dumplings make great starters.
Madeline GullettAugust 27, 2015
The sweet potato caterpillar is the best vegan sushi I've ever had! I love their vegan menu.

LUMPIA (crispy pork and shrimp shanghai style egg rolls, boston lettuce, dipping sauces)
Pocket SunAugust 10, 2014
West meets East brunch menu is very delightful. I loved the chicken and Hong Kong style egg waffles, and the tasty pork belly dish.
Maryam MalikApril 6, 2015
The Best Asian Food in most beautifully decorated restaurant . I will be coming back again & again now that I have discovered it.
Lulu AJuly 1, 2015
Nick our waiter was awesome and the food is delicious. Really love the lobster roll, spare ribs, brussel sprout salad, etc..
Shadyra SantianaMarch 19, 2019
They had a variety of food. The oxtail dumplings were GES as was the pork belly and Dandan noodles! Great for groups.

Some great Sake flights and one of the best epic Bloody Mary's in the city! Oh and the sushi's pretty good too :)
ChristyApril 30, 2011
Shaking beef is delicious but the pieces of meat are a little too big to eat with chopsticks. California roll is awesome as well as the pad Thai chicken that my boyfriend got. Definite repeat!
Mark MulderOctober 17, 2019
Innovative Asian fusion dishes with a decent vegan menu. Try the crispy Brussels sprouts salad and the mushroom adobo.
Gilt CityJune 1, 2011
On our must-order list: lemongrass beef lollipops with spicy chili glaze and kobe beef sashimi with truffled vinaigrette. (And keep an eye out for celebs like Jeremy Piven, a fan.)
Matt www.Travelyaps.comJune 4, 2014
I love me a shaved Brussels sprouts salad. Scorpion roll was pretty good too. Make a reservation this place can get busy.
Mypat BoboDecember 11, 2014
Go for a very high quality sushi dinner. Elite and lively atmosphere. Black cod was delicious.
Sally CedarApril 21, 2018
Great atmosphere. Asian meets Chicago. Rock shrimp, spicy Tuna, sweet potato caterpillar roll. All yummy
Jaclyn OrtizFebruary 21, 2014
A little pricey, but you at least get a lot of bang for your buck. The pancit and sweet potato roll are highly recommended.
Spencer BrownellOctober 4, 2014
Best Old Fashion cocktail that I have ever had. Food is excellent. Brussel Sprout salad is a standout. Skip desert. It's the one place they fall short.
Scherjang SinghAugust 8, 2014
We say at the chefs table and got floored by the appetizer menu. Great sushi and definitely a must go to place.
GwynneApril 25, 2013
Can't say enough good things about this place. Food is AMAZING, out of this world. Service is great. Ambiance is stylish. Highly recommend!
Cat GaoJuly 6, 2013
The rock shrimp tempura is so. good. That and the truffled mushroom brown rice are my picks.
Mahendra YahyaMarch 30, 2017
Try the Sunda Bento Box Panang Chicken - Nice, serve with miso and sushi (via @Foodspotting)
