Miku Sushi

Last month my sister-in-law and I visited Miku Sushi in Lincoln Square. We went for the ramen as they were running a special for National Noodle Month, but we stayed for the sushi. :) Couldn't go to a place with "Sushi" in the name and bypass it all together. Both of us are sushi fans and were eager to try some of the maki.

We started off with some warm green tea and miso soup - which was very welcome after we were ducking in from a cold downpour and followed up with some ramen and then some fantastic rock shrimp, which had a slightly spicy and tangy sauce served over greens. It was fantastic. So, that was a lot of food and we should have stopped there. But...well, they have sushi.





The maki was so beautifully and artfully presented that you honestly felt guilty eating it. I was way to pretty to eat. But we did. And we weren't sorry.

We went with a lunch special where you can get two for $10 or three for $14 and the miso soup is included. Options for the lunch special were:

Asparagus Maki Spicy Shrimp Maki 
Avocado MakiSpicy Salmon Maki
California MakiSpicy Tuna Maki
Ebi Tempura MakiSpicy Yellowtail Maki
Kappa MakiTuna Maki
Negi-HamachiTuna Avocado Maki
Philly MakiUnagi Maki

Spicy Octopus MakiMini Veggie Godzilla
The Ebi Tempura and Mini Veggie Godzilla were my faves. 


Miku Sushi hasn't been around long. It occupies the space that was once Tank Sushi. I totally recommend it for anyone who loves ramen or sushi.
