Momotaro is a multi-level Japanese restaurant located in the West Loop. Led by Executive Chef Gene Kato, Momotaro has had the honor of being named Restaurant of the Year in both Chicago Magazine and Chicago Social. Under Kato’s leadership the restaurant has come to define the balance between traditional values and modern technique, blending the two in a science and art that has resulted in an authentic, innovative menu. The restaurant, designed by the world renowned AvroKO, also contains the subterranean Izakaya at Momotaro (a laid back, lively lower-level bar and restaurant reminiscent of the neon-lit haunts of trendy Tokyo neighborhoods) and an elegant second floor private space that overlooks the main dining room.

I had few choices for places to go on a Monday night so I ended up here. I had the chef’s choice nigiri for $75 (10 pieces) as well as an appetizer and still left hungry. The total bill came out to over $130 for barely any food and one glass of sake. The pieces of nigiri were super small and the fish was sliced SO thin. The fish quality was fresh and tasted fine, but if I drop $75 on 10 pieces of nigiri, they better be standard-sized pieces of nigiri, not miniature nigiri, which is what these were.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re really sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. We always aim to offer a memorable and satisfying meal, and it’s clear we missed the mark during your visit. The size of the nigiri and portions is something we will definitely look into. We’re glad to hear that the fish quality was up to par, but we completely understand that portion size is a big part of the experience, especially at that price point. Your comments are invaluable to us, and we hope you’ll give us another chance to provide a more satisfying experience in the future. Thank you, Merissa White General Manager Momotaro & The Izakaya
