Makisu Sushi Description:
You may not have heard about this contemporary sushi spot in an easy-to-ignore Skokie shopping plaza (we only stumbled upon it). But after opening quietly, Makisu steadily gained interest among modern maki enthusiasts. Partner David Kim (Sushi Ai, Swordfish, Wildfish) knows what he's doing, having a knack for opening popular spots with artfully plated Asian cuisine in unlikely places. We like the enveloping leather banquettes that line the open, wood-trimmed space. But more than that, we enjoy the jalapeño-topped spicy tuna over "crunch." The sashimi? It's pristine. Entrées from the kitchen do not disappoint either, particularly the flavorful seven-spiced big eye tuna, served with a mound of crisp vegetables.
