"This place is from the same chef as Juno and charges $195 for around 15 courses of delicious nigiri, sashimi, and small plates (like braised abalone with roasted gingko nut). Compared to the other omakase-only spots in the West Loop, Mako is the largest (it seats 22 people, with 12 at the bar and the rest at tables), and dinner here is long—about three hours. Plan on a very expensive and enjoyable experience. It’s also worth noting that they offer omakase to-go if you prefer to have that experience on your couch." - adrian kane, john ringor, veda kilaru
