Yoshi’s Café
In 1982, Yoshi Katsumura and his wife Nobuko opened Yoshi’s Café, a now Chicago staple.
Influenced by his time living in Tokyo, Paris, Lyon, and Chicago, Yoshi pioneered the art of
international cuisine. His gastronomic artistry melds Asian and French textures and flavors to
create the singular cuisine of Yoshi’s Café. Yoshi passed away in August 2015, but his legacy is
stronger than ever. Now, Yoshi and Nobuko’s son has superbly continued his unprecedented
cuisine, while Nobuko finesses the restaurant’s floor and welcomes the restaurant’s “family” of
loyal patrons. Yoshi’s innovative menus epitomize the word “eclectic,” and his inventive Bento
Box Dinner, which stars an oven roasted sablefish, glazed with ginger soy sauce, is a popular
pick. Chicago Magazine named Yoshi’s one of the 40 best Chicago restaurants of all time,
declaring, “This treasure has delighted for three decades simply because Yoshi Katsumura’s
gentle fusion continues to sparkle.”
