Jōtō Sushi takes its name from the Japanese for "superior quality," and it builds its identity around dry-aging fish rather than serving everything straight off the boat, aiming for a different, more concentrated flavor at the sushi and omakase bar. A curated sake menu runs alongside the raw bar program.
The restaurant sits inside CH Bar & Table, the West Randolph Street spot known as the home of Jeppson's Malört — an unlikely pairing of dry-aged sushi and one of Chicago's more notorious spirits that gives the room its particular character in the West Loop.
Regulars point to the quality of the omakase, attentive service, and a vibrant bar atmosphere as reasons they keep coming back, along with value that stands out for the format.
