SHŌ, situated in Chicago’s Old Town, offers a contemporary reimagining of the traditional omakase experience under the guidance of Executive Chef Mari Katsumura. The restaurant features a design-forward, high-energy atmosphere that prioritizes modern rhythm over formal ritual, blending classic Japanese methods with global culinary influences. Guests are treated to a seasonally rotating ten-course tasting menu that balances traditional sushi and hand rolls with innovative hot and cold composed dishes. By combining a curated soundscape with expressive, kinetic interiors, the venue creates a multisensory dining environment designed to be immersive and unconventional.
