About the restaurant
Est. 2014 - family owned & operated

We are offering a NYE Menu! Guests are able to make a reservation for the menu specifically, but are still able to make a regular booking otherwise.

We are participating again for Restaurant Week 2026 (menus available in gallery photos).

Try our unique omakase where our chefs will work around your restrictions to course out a mix of traditional, and non-traditional, fare. With signature dishes like our fish & chips and bluefin truffle sashimi, dressed nigiri pieces, and our off menu "special rolls" (including vegetarian options). Otherwise, order from the menu with many small-bite options, nigiri/sashimi, maki, entrees, or order the special rolls à la carte. We pride ourselves on our fish quality.

We have a full bar, which features a full selection of Japanese whisky, sake, cocktails, and more.




(We have no affiliation with any other Tanoshii and Sushi Mike, and are completely separate)

Tanoshii is the best sushi in the west loop. Great quality and very authentic. Been to all of the sushi places in the west loop, and tanoshii is the best. They also have a great happy hour where they offer a variety of menu items at a really good price. And to top it all off, the service there is amazing. They take great care of their customers. It is my go-to place in the west loop.

River North (Chicago)
About the restaurant
At Akiro Chicago, we brought our bar-only dining experience from Spain straight to River North.
We don’t have tables, every seat is at the counter, because we believe the best way to enjoy a hand roll is right in front of the chef who makes it.

We prepare each hand roll one by one so the nori stays crisp and the rice has the perfect warmth.
Our menu reflects who we are: Japanese technique, Peruvian flavor, and dishes that come to life right at the bar, from premium nigiris to signature dishes.

Our cocktails follow the same spirit, with Peruvian influence, premium sake, and wines chosen to keep the experience bright and balanced.

The space is modern, warm, and a little electric.
We focus on the craft. You sit at the bar. And together, we create the moment.
