Japanese Barbeque Restaurant

Union Sushi + Barbeque Bar Combines the Big Flame-Flavor of a Japanese Barbeque Restaurant with Cool, Creative and One-of-a-Kind Maki and Nigiri; Turning Japanese Dining in Chicago on its Ear.

Japanese Barbeque in Chicago

has never been like this. Union breathes new life into the thousands-of-years-old tradition of Japanese robata. Firing up tasty ingredients like alligator, Berkshire pork shoulder, crispy chicken thigh and bacon-wrapped scallops over a 600° flame and pairing this Japanese barbeque Restaurant, with a full menu of hyper-fresh and creative sushi, brings Japanese Barbeque in Chicago to a whole new level.
