“ We choose Shakou for our dinner out this week. We had not been here before but the menu looked amazing & it did not disappoint. We had made a reservation for Thursday at 6 but there was plenty of seating at this time. Our server was prompt & helpful, directing me to this amazing Pear martini. Our food came quickly & was so delicious! I like that their menu indicates spicy, raw fish & GF - so helpful. I look forward to trying more dishes on the menu! My only 'thing' was the atmosphere- high top tables in the bar - chairs were back to back, no room to move. Music was very loud but okay & there were many families with kids coming in all night. ”
“ We had a date night at Shakou yesterday Atmosphere is spectacular. Food is good. A little pricey but it worth it. We got: - Black Widow roll (scallop roll comes with a black rice) 22 - Lobster roll (serving is beautiful) - 26 - glass of the white wine Overall: would highly recommend going here for an occasion not for take out. ”

“ We were in Arlington Heights for an event and stopped in Shakou for dinner. Everything...from the service, to the drinks, and the food was 5 stars. Our server was attentive and awesome. I had the sashimi--so fresh. My husband had a shrimp and scallop dish that was superb. Highly recommended. ”
“ I'm visiting my Mom, and we always pick a new place to go. Mom chose here. Nice, clean, bright interior with dining and bar seating. We started with Gyoza and Crab Cakes with a mango puree. The Gyoza were light and flavorful with a ponzu dipping sauce. They were a great start to a meal. Crab cakes were dynamite, but a different sauce would have been better. Sweet Crab, sweet sauce... a touch too sweet. Mom had Chicken Katsu with sweet chili dipping sauce - crisp, juicy, plentiful, and the sauce was great - not too sweet, not too spicy. I got the Kyu 9 piece sushi, chef choice, and a spicy scallop roll. Fantastic. Best sushi I've had in a while. I finished with Pyramid - chocolate mousse with praline crisp filling and mom got Chocolate Lava Cake a la Mode (vanilla ice cream). Zolo, our tabletender, was killer. Never had to look for her, always had what I wanted, and she made a great meal even better. I've often said good food with great service makes a great meal. Great food with great service makes a must go back again place. Here's the Breakdown: Great food in a pretty dining space with Zolo taking care of us 5 stars. I will, for sure, go back. ”
