Dee's Mandarin & Sushi Lounge

Chicago

Sushi Restaurant

$$$$

The owner of Dee Kang is a Korean-born Chinese woman who spent much time in Japan as a child, and she fuses the cuisine of each culture into an appropriately Asian fusion menu. The lineup at this modern Lincoln Park restaurant is exploding with flavor, and runs the gamut from Korean kalbi and Mongolian beef to fresh sushi rolls, including California, spider, and the spicier Kaibashira with scallops. You can either nab a white linen-covered table in the exposed brick dining room or on the airy back patio.
