Evanston Welcomes Soulwich and Todoroki Hibachi and Sushi

Get the lowdown on two Asian arrivals offering the likes of Singapore-inspired sandwiches, Japanese hibachi and all-you-can-eat sushi.

Inexpensive sandwiches of mixed Asian influence (predominantly Singapore and Burma - not your typical banh mi) tickle Evanston tastebuds with traditional curries, spices, organic local produce and housemade sauces at contemporary contender Soulwich, which also offers various vegetarian/vegan options, a few ‘salad boxes’ and exotic soft drinks; the counter-service setting is casual, decorated with brightly colored with space-age seating and framed posters (1634 Orrington Ave., Evanston; 847-382-2222).


Japanese steakhouse showmanship involving knives and flames constitute the ‘turf’ side of reasonably priced Evanston BYO Todoroki Hibachi & Sushi, with sushi both classic and creative (including all-you-can-eat options) serving up the ‘surf’ in the divided dining room; brick and ductwork dining areas offer hibachi grill seating, a sushi bar, long leather banquettes and bare tables, as well as tatami rooms and modern artwork (526 Davis St., Evanston; 847-750-6565).
