Grain and Sea

Grain and Sea is a casual, build-your-own sushi concept in the Chicago Loop where customers pay by weight for a rotating selection of over 30 options, including nigiri and plant-based rolls. While some note that fish quality could be improved, the restaurant is highly regarded as an affordable and customizable lunch destination known for its impressive variety.

Viewers are largely enthusiastic about the $16 self-selection service, viewing it as a high-value lunch staple. However, some concerns were raised regarding limited seating capacity and a specific critique of the fish quality.
