Review by Davion Dietrich

Niu Japanese Fusion Lounge is a delightful gem in Chicago! 🍣 Tucked in the River East Center, this cozy spot offers a trendy yet upmarket atmosphere.

I tried the rainbow roll and spicy tuna hand roll, both of which were fresh and perfectly seasoned. The mellow yellow roll was a standout - a treat for the taste buds! While our server was friendly and attentive, the service could be a bit slow during peak hours.

Dessert, a frozen matcha cake, was a curious find - definitely different! Overall, a lovely spot for sushi lovers. Can’t wait to come back! 🥢
