The Sit Down Cafe & Sushi Bar is a cozy gem in Chicago! 🌟 I recently dined here with my family and loved the outdoor seating. The Avocado rolls were a highlight - delicious and vegan-friendly! My kids were thrilled with their pizza, making this a great spot for families.

While the service was fast and friendly, the only downside was the soy sauce being a bit too salty for my taste. The Big Bang sushi roll is a must-try - huge and flavorful! Overall, it's a lovely place for a casual meal with something for everyone. We’ll definitely be back! 🍣✨
