Just got back from dinner at Blu, the sushi restaurant in the Orrington Hotel in Evanston. I'm a big fan of Japanese food, and really enjoy sushi in particular, so I was looking forward to trying this restaurant. Despite the fancy decor and high prices, I was very disappointed in the quality and taste of the food. The sushi tasted terrible, especially the sushi rolls, which had some strange chili and sesame seasoning that was just not appropriate for Japanese cuisine. If you are looking for good sushi - avoid this place!
Pros: Nice ambiance
Cons: Poor tasting food, especially the sushi
