This place is a SOLID value. They only do takeout, and they do it very well. Prices are fair, and quality is very good. The spicy tuna crunch roll is a very good value at $ 6.99, and the Charlie roll is delicious! It is unlike other fried rolls I have had. They get a really good crisp texture on the outside. Fish quality is very good. You may need to ask for extra soy sauce, as they generally don’t give enough for some people(my wife).

I always see this place because I drop off my partner at the station, but never bothered to go in… even though other Unilocalers has given it great reviews. Once again, I’ve been missing out on a great, fast and cheap place. Definitely a great place to grab fresh and hot sushi on the go. Very nice servers and the prices are well managed. Don’t be silly like me and miss out, just go try it… chances are you will like it too.

I have ordered sushi here multiple times, every time I call to place an order they are polite and the sushi is ready to pick up in 15 minutes and always fresh. I suggest the Charlie Roll! I highly recommend it!

Great sushi options from their basic rolls to the fancy rolls. My kids love the California rolls and they give you a lot for the price. I usually get a few specialty rolls and all the varieties I have tried have been great. I would recommend this sushi take-out any day and pick up from their quite frequently.

Fresh sushi place in the heart of downtown Palatine. Carry out only but it works well for us as we live close by. Portions are generous, fish is fresh, prices are average and staff is friendly.

I was looking to carry out sushi for dinner and found this place on Unilocal.Their sushi is not fancy but very solid. Their shrimp tempura was very crunch and tasty. I would’ve given them 4 stars, if they didn’t miss spicy sauce on my spicy california roll. I plan on ordering from them again.

Sushi is something I am very particular about. If it isn’t fresh and eye appealing I don’t want to eat it. Well Sushi Togo cures that, fresh and eye appealing, and then the flavor is just amazing!!! Shrimp tempura rolls are awesome, spicy tuna rolls are another one of my favorites, definitely recommend the Dancing Eel roll, which is a shrimp tempura, eel, masago, avocado, eel sauce and spicy mayo. Order ahead, it will save you sometime, but it doesn’t take that long, I ordered 8 rolls and was out within 10 minutes of ordering!!!

Finally decided to try the place. Went on Saturday about an hour after they were supposed to have opened. It was locked up, no lights on, no one there. Their sign on the door clearly stated that they should have been open… Oh well. Maybe I’ll give them another chance in a few years.

Small place for sushi to go. Service was nice and friendly. Walked in and ordered and got my order in 10 mins. The sushi was decent for the this place. Will order from there again if I don’t want to sit down and want a quick sushi fix.

Good prices, good food, quick and friendly service, and have been consistent in doing so four times in a row. They definitely have my business, especially after trying other sushi places in the area that have been average at best.

If you’re in the area(i.e. Palatine), this places lives up to its name. If you want good sushi to go, this should be at the top of your list. I ordered a Spicy Sushi Combo which came with a Spicy Tuna Roll(6pcs) & nigiri sushi(4pcs) for a hair under $ 10. I split it with my wife, and was pleased with the taste, presentation, and speedy turnaround after placing my order in person(~5−10 minutes.) Looking at the rest of the menu, this place is VERY reasonable in price, so I will certainly have to try some of the other rolls. As Ahnald would say, «I’ll be back.»

love this place. always so friendly. there was only one woman in there instead of normally two. she was friendly and patient as i decided what to order and i was patient with her as she was finishing another order. I ordered salmon rolls, veggie rolls, and trying for the first time fried California rolls. i also go the chicken fried rice for $ 6.99 and it comes with miso soup. i stepped outside as she prepared my order and when i came back in she told me she gave me a free seaweed salad. thought that was very nice and i am a fan of it and dont always order that so a nice treat. lots of food and will make a few meals out of it. always a fan of sushi to go. only thing is i wish they were open on sundays.

Maki made fresh when you order! The best thing to do is order prior to picking up so you can grab & go. I ordered right there in person and it was less than 10 minutes for my rolls to be made. They have a pretty big menu full of nigiri, maki rolls, tempura, interesting side dishes, noodle meals and some Korean meals like bibimbap! I was a bit hesitant but I’m not sure what was causing my trepidation. I buy grab & go sushi from Mitsuwa & Tensuke all the time. Sushi To Go is closer to home for me so it makes a great alternative. When I first walked in, I thought I might have made a mistake. There was a lady at the counter who didn’t greet me, so I stood there awkwardly. She stood there awkwardly. I opened my trap to order and things were a bit less awkward after that. When she gave me my order, she was sweet & nice so I’m still a bit confused by the lack of communication at the beginning of our encounter. My rolls were so filling that I had two for lunch and saved one to have with dinner. I found the proportions of rice to fish & fillings to be completely as expected, they didn’t skimp on the non-rice bits at all. Break breakdown: Crunch Roll $ 5.50 — No ingredients were listed for this roll but I knew I wanted to try it. It turned out being my favorite of the bunch and so much so I would venture back simply to have this roll. Chopped up tuna, spicy tuna style minus the spice, with some roe & tempura crumbs that gave it that crunch. Philadelphia Roll $ 5.90 — Standard Philly roll, no cucumbers which made me smile. My least favorite of the bunch, something in this usual-go-to-roll-for-me just wasn’t doing it for moi. Spicy Tuna Crunch Roll $ 6.99 — Biggest & fanciest of the bunch with extra spicy mayo on top. If you’re into spice, I think this will totally satisfy you. I’m a weak sauce and my mouth was burning on fire. I went through a whole bottle of water just while downing this roll. That being said, I liked it! Fresh fish & good delivery. I’m definitely coming back for that awesome crunch roll! Maybe two. I would love to try some of their other items, as well, including the bibimbap. I’m intrigued!

I had a spicy tuna roll and a spider roll. Too much rice and not enough fish and vegetables in the sushi. I wouldn’t eat there again.

I’m rather obsessed with sushi lately, which has lead me to try it any way that I can get it – at a fancy sushi restaurant, at a brand spanking new sushi shop, from a grocery store, and now: in a to-go box. Hell, as long as it’s done by a pro sushi chef, I’ll eat it! We had tickets for a show at Durty Nellie’s(right across the street) and upon peeping a line wrapped around the block, we decided to kill some time at Sushi To Go. Although the entire menu sounded amazing, we stuck with the basics and ordered a spicy tuna roll and a spicy salmon roll. It cost us just under $ 10, which we were super excited about. Since we didn’t call in our order, we were told it would take about 10 minutes. No problem — sushi is worth waiting for. Once our food was done and packed up so nicely, we headed back to our car to dine. The previous reviews are right– this is strictly to go with not even a single table to eat. It’s a good thing because it makes your sushi fix cheap, but it may lead to you dining in your car. Hey, there’s a first time for everything! The rolls were very generously sized for the $ 4.70 price tag. We got six pieces of each, but they were humongous in comparison to other spicy tuna/salmons that I’ve had. Taste wise, I preferred the tuna to the salmon. They were both good, but I wouldn’t say ‘amazing’ if that makes sense. Next time, I’ll try one of the specialty rolls too because there was a huge variety and they all sounded delicious. I can’t recommend this place enough – especially if you’re a sushi addict who happens to find yourself in the area. Even if you find yourself using chopsticks to mix your soy sauce and wasabi in a car, you can’t deny the fact that it was all worth it.

This place is a hidden gem! We love sushi in my house, but tend to eat grocery store sushi when we’re on a time crunch and/or budget. Sushi To Go has fixed our sad run-ins with store-bought sush for good! We normally go for the spicy tuna or spicy salmon roll and one or two of the specialty rolls. All have been delightful, yet inexpensive! Last time, I had the jalapeño appetizer which consisted of fresh jalapenos halved, stuffed with cream cheese and spicy tuna, then fried in tempura batter. Incredible!!! Their dumplings were pretty great too. Turn around time for carry-out is always less than 15 minutes, and all of the employees have been friendly when I’ve picked up. All I can say are great things about this place. Please keep it up!!!

Love their sushi! I’ve tried at least 7 or 8 rolls and their quality is consistently good. Their service is fast(I recommend calling ahead) and their prices are very reasonable.

Read the reviews up here and thought I had to give it a try. We constantly visit Sushi Asahi in Palatine, Oba Contemporary Sushi in Mt. Prospect and Bistro Wasabi in Hoffman Estates so we have had our fair share of Premium Sushi out here in the burbs. Please be aware that this is not a sit down place, they only do take out, which I agree is a great idea for their location. The Pros: Very convenient for pickup on the way home from work. Parking is easy, Prices are not cheap, but low for sushi standards, menu variety was very good. And the staff I spoke with was very professional and friendly. Placing the order over the phone was easy and my food only took about 15 minutes and we ordered about 7 various items off the menu. The Bad: Unfortunately the sushi was mediocre. Not that it was spoiled or anything, just nothing special. Very small amounts of tuna in the spicy tuna rolls and the shrimp in the rolls did have a slight funny taste to it. Also the food appeared to be put together rather hastily, presentation was pretty much the worst I have ever seen and any sushi place. Not even close to the photos they show on the site. We ordered 2 Spicy Tuna rolls, California roll, jalapeño appetizer, miso soup Halloween Maki and a Tiger Roll, and somthing else I forgot. That’s about it for my Review, will I be heading back here? Sorry to say I won’t, unfortunately it was still a $ 55.00+ dinner for 3 adults and two children, and that’s a pricey mistake I won’t repeat. I was hoping for a option of sushi that wouldn’t hit the wallet as hard, but the lowering of the quality seriously outweighed any 10 – 30 percent cost benefit of Sushi To Go. Honestly, get the $ 25.00 coupon off website for Asahi and the prices are about equal anyway.

The idea of doggy bag style sushi made me cringe every time I passed this place for about a year and half, but ya know what? It was actually pretty darn good. Today, while in a snow storm and waiting for an incoming train carrying precious cargo that needed to be picked up by none other than myself, I decided to break down and give it a go since I’d already pretty much parked in front of the place and still had 30 minutes before the train got in. I walked in was greeted by a smiley young lady, eager to take my order. I only saw the giant menu behind the register and didn’t realize that there was a second menu to my right with other specialty rolls that I’ll be sure take part in next time. So anyway, because I only saw about half the menu, I got a pretty basic blend of rolls that were done really well, though at first glance I thought I’d be disappointed by the amount of rice vs fish in each roll, but the flavor translated differently than I’d played it out in my head and it was really something. The spicy tuna and spicy salmon were actually spicy, and I liked that it didn’t taste overwhelmingly like mayo. The vegetable roll was decent and a nice variety of different vegetables, and wasn’t just a California roll sans the crab and the avocado roll was sent from the gods. It was simple, but unbelievably creamy– above and beyond any other avocado roll I’ve ever had. The sushi was all budget friendly and the four rolls I ordered were just enough food for two people to enjoy for dinner, yet not be so stuffed that they blow their chunks when they follow up their sushi dinner with a hearty helping of cardio brought to them by the Insanity workout system and all in all it cost me $ 22(that includes a tip) and only about 12 minutes. It’s not the most artistic or high-end sushi, but for a carry-out sushi location it gets the job done and it does it pretty darn well.
