Reopening of nano sushi in Chicago

Nano sushi is reopened. Chicago's beloved sushi restaurant on  Eastwood Cullom Ave. It also had an update where there is outdoor sitting. And if you like private bathrooms there are 2 one for gentleman and one for the ladies. But if you're allergic to seafood then do not go there. Also the strong workers there are really nice, they also are the only workers there (which is a lot of work). If you like sushi you should most definitely go there.

Nano sushi actually means really tiny sushi because nano=really tiny/small. Anyway nano gets lots of people on Wednesdays and there's no special that day, Wednesday will always be a mystery there maybe. If you want to go there it's at Chicago Eastwood Cullom Ave. you should totally go there. Nano sushi is 100% opened up and closes at ten. People actually rate it a 4.5 out of 5 stars. So go there sometime. This is shepherd dog news.
