About Kumi Sushi

Introducing Kumi Sushi, a local restaurant located at 1145 S Illinois Rte 31 n, Crystal Lake, IL 60014, USA, specializing in sushi and Japanese cuisine. While the platform category suggests a Chinese Restaurant, Kumi Sushi offers a different culinary experience.

Regarding the environment, one customer described it as having a quiet atmosphere. However, another reviewer noted that the interior was quite dark and had several flashing signs, which they found to be a less than ideal combination.

In terms of services, Kumi Sushi is praised for its amazing and friendly staff who provide quick service. The food preparation and delivery to the table appear to be efficient.

Features of Kumi Sushi include a menu with sushi pieces that one customer described as perfect, with their yellowtail being particularly noteworthy and "on point." Most of the food received positive feedback, with one reviewer stating they enjoyed everything they ordered, contradicting some negative reviews they had previously read. However, one specific item, the spicy tuna, received negative feedback, being described as not really tuna but predominantly chili powder with some crunchy flakes and a small amount of tuna, resulting in a pasty and dry texture that was inedible for that customer.

Currently, there is no specific promotional information available in the provided reviews. However, the positive comments regarding the overall food quality and service suggest a potentially satisfying dining experience for sushi lovers in the Crystal Lake area.

For local users in Crystal Lake, IL, seeking a sushi experience, Kumi Sushi offers great food and amazing service according to some patrons, although the interior lighting and the spicy tuna preparation have been points of concern for others. To make inquiries or place an order, you can contact Kumi Sushi at (779) 220-0288 or +1 779-220-0288.

Great food, quiet atmosphere and amazing service. I read some of the negative reviews and just haven’t experienced anything remotely close to what they were saying anytime I have eaten at Kumi.

It was quite dark and they had several flashing signs inside, not a good combo. We enjoyed everything we got except the spicy tuna. Its not really tuna its like 90% chili powder 5% crunchy flakes and 5% tuna. It was so pasty and dry i couldn't eat it. The staff were friendly and food came out quick. The sushi pieces were perfect and thier yellowtail was on point.

We've been on a tempura kick lately, lol!! First thing I noticed when they sat us in a booth.. they had a cushion for each person..I personally like this! Service was excellent..very friendly and attentive.. our drinks were always refreshed.. they answered any questions. Now.. let's talk about why we really came here..FOOD!! We like a light, crispy tempura.. we're not big sushi people, but we can tear up some tempura!! This tempura was good..however.. it was a thicker tempura..not a classic light..more like a batter dipped. It was still very good. The vegetables were. Onion, broccoli, sweet potato, zucchini.. they had the same batter.. again.. very good. We enjoyed the salad.. I personally don't care for meso soup.. so hubby had 2, lol.. he said.. it was ok. We had the chicken egg rolls.. They were good.. so was the vegetable fried rice..you could taste the seseam oil..that we both like. After we were done with our meal.. they brought out a small dish.. 2 pieces of fried banana with whipped cream and chocolate syrup.Never having this before.. we thought.. we'll try it! Oh my gosh y'all..it was sooo good. Overall, I really liked the food and service.. I heard a few bad things.. but we didn't experience that.. I have to say..go, try it!!

We ate here last night. The service was great. The area we were seated in looked rather dated and worn dowb with the red paint chipping from the walls. We ordered. Eel: Was a bit fishy in a bad way. Yellowtail: was pleasant order a second. Lion king roll: cost $22 and tasted of one note, creamy avacado. Couldn't taste anything else. Dragonroll: Once again creamy avacado and bad fishy eel tasted nothing else. App was crab ragoon: was rather good. A few hours later we both ended up having terriable gas that made it hard to sleep. I think the Eel had spoiled. Also the sushi kept falling appart. The rice acted as if there was nothing holding it together. Ended up with more rice in the soy sauce dipping dish then in me. Won't be returning. We will just take the extra few minutes to drive out to Minami Sushi in Streamwood instead.

I've been to this place 2 or 3 times. I cannot remember exactly what order of sushi I placed the first time but it was extremely delicious. The most recent time I came with my wife to have a much needed date. I ordered fried rice and with steak and shrimp hibachi style. Everything tasted well. My only gripe would be that I feel they don't give you as much as other places do. It is presented well and it tastes just as great as other places. It did not disappoint. As for the rolls my wife and I ordered. It was good. And I mean real good. They are a bit pricey but worth it when you take each bite. I do see myself going back in the future but not sure when that will be. As mentioned they are a bit pricey but the food is extremely good and won't disappoint. The service was well and drinks were often refilled when needed.
