Been going here for about 7 years. I love this place for watching sports events. We went for a friends gathering the other night. Honestly not so impressed. More recently I have needed to eat gluten free. I was unable to scour the internet in advance to find their gluten free menu. It was absent so I included it. I went with the tacos as I had read they were good. I went with chicken since the server said it was a tad spicy. No it was quite spicy. I wish I went with the fish or something else... the sides and taco extras were plenty and way to much for the # of tacos. They were good, but not amazing. As for gluten free beer I didn't see my favorites so I went with wine, another disappointment for an 'ale house'. My husband enjoyed his pot roast as usual and kids their buttered noodles.

Been here twice, they have a huge gluten free menu! Great with prep and always informed them I have celiac & a dairy allergy and the servers are very knowledgeable on what may have dairy off the GF menu. I have not gotten sick! LOVE that they have vegan sushi too, made satisfying my cravings for sushi while pregnant possible!

Have Celiac and have to eat Gluten Free - this place really cares. The staff and owner are lovely, although I'm sad the robot didn't seat us; maybe next time. The food was great too!

We've been here twice for the all you can eat sushi dinner. The prices are extremely fair, the quality of the sushi is excellent, and the overall service and atmosphere is fantastic. I will continue to recommend Sushi U to anyone looking for a great all you can eat sushi spot! I'm also gluten-intolorant and really appreciated the staff being so helpful in letting me know which rolls I couldn't have due to my restriction (and for providing me with gluten-free soy sauce). Thank you so much!

Great place and very gluten free friendly! Maybe best in Chicago for gluten free friendly stuff (sushi has to be brown rice though to be gluten free)

Love this place! Very hearty, delicious ramen. Their special sushi rolls are also great! My boyfriend has celiac disease and our server informed us they had limited gluten free options, but he got sushi (with tamari) didn’t have any reaction. $5 hot sake was a good way to warm up on a chilly evening 🍶
