Best place to get a casual bite of sushi! Pick up is so easy and quick and the grocery store is fun to walk around if you need to a wait a little. I love to get their king salmon or tiger roll, as i find the seared salmon adds such a good flavor! Prices are reasonable and quality is always good. I highly recommend checking out Tensuke if you’re in the area!

Eating here is always a treat, they are too sweet, the food is so good and fresh. Lots of cute nick nacks and awesome snacks.Also they have sushi you can take to go, which is delicious plus deserts and different food.

Great Fresh Sashimi, Nigiri, poke 🥣 & hand roll sets. One of my favorite places to get fresh 🍣 . They also have a great Asian market in the same location that I shop in regularly, for all your fixings to make anything on the menu @ home. I have been going here for about 5 years now. Truly a place you should try if u like 🍣

Very cozy and cute market. The overall products are Japanese and they have some Korean products as well. They have restaurants at the back of the store, while the front is the market. I got to purchase some cute items. I loved the stationary section that they have! The market is still going through with being remodeled. But it was still a very pleasant experience and the cashiers where friendly and welcoming. The bread that they sell is fresh and was very delicious. I bought a tuna Mayo onigiri as well and the flavor was on point.

Incredible. A hidden and authentic gem of a Japanese market/cafe. Friendly staff, fresh fish, and rare goods. Highly recommended!

What a charming little place this is! The sushi shop in the back is top notch, and as a Japanese grocer, its excellent.

This is the BEST sushi Ive had in the entire city of Chicago and its surrounding suburbs. Ingredients are so fresh, everything is so awesomely prepared and their spicy mayo is literally to die for (get a side of it with your sushi, youll love it). The store itself is so cute they are renovating right now and cant wait to see what they do with it! Always stock up on my Asian ingredients from here and they were one of the only places to get masks during the pandemic.

Love this little market, my first time here!I got some green tea, I might be back to shop for more items! 👍👍👍

Our favorite place to eat Sushi...King of Salmon roll....hands down the best.

The food courts are the best and the market offers a variety of different types of food and products

Very good Japanese supermarket. Fresh meats and vegetables. Good prices

This is our favorite Japanese fish market and food court in Chicagoland.It is small but always serves best quality fresh fish for decades. It also has ramen and sushi restaurant.

Love the food from here. Cheap and plentiful. Also taste good. They r renovating the place. Looks much cleaner.

This place is dope! For a place thats 1-20th the size of super HMart it has a much bigger and better sushi grade fresh fish selection. Pretty decent pre-made sushi which is rare af. For an very modest sized Asian market its surprisingly awesome. Oh and theyre remodeling now in Nov 21 so its getting bigger. Not hmart bigger though lol

They have some of the freshest sushi you will find. They recently remodeled and it looks clean and well laid out. So many choices I easily spend over $100 per visit and still have to go back because I find something new to try out. Its always a great experience.

Tensuke Market is very authentic Japanese food that is always tasting really great. I enjoy their variety and quality of food. When ordering an online order the only have one delivery driver so unfortunately you’ll have to wait longer than expected. That I would say is the one issue. The customer service is always helpful and really seem to care about their customers.

Small but busy and good taste. Resonable price with many of choices. Good for to go.

I like Japanese supermarket very much. There are not many items but the store is expanding recently. It seems that there will be more products. I am very looking forward to it. I like Japanese goods and food very much. The staff is very polite and friendly. The store also has gathering activities. You can exchange cash for shopping, and hope that there will be more and more Japan and Taiwan snacks and groceries in the future.

I tell folks that Tensuke is my happy place, and I mean it. I drive past another nearby large Japanese market to get to Tensuke. Come here for the best sushi, meals, snacks, Japanese foods, and best price on rice anywhere. So glad Tensuke expanded. Cant wait to visit when indoor dining opens back up.

My absolute favorite place to eat in the Chicago/Wood Dale area. The people and the food are top notch and the prices are fantastic. Casual atmosphere and food court decor. Honest and friendly staff both at the register and the food counter. Ive eaten almost everything on the menu at least once now and I can definitely say its all delicious and not Americanized in the least. I keep coming back every time Im in town.I havent purchased anything from the main grocery store section so I cant speak to that, only the food court.

Love this place. Their salmon belly is top notch. Sushi is the best around.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Tensuke Market! Its got the coolest booze and food selection. Employees are really nice and sweet. Love to see that theyre expanding as well! They have really nice candies and snacks also.Every now and then they carve a fresh tuna which is SO cool! They have some of the freshest and most delicious fish 🐟😋 DEFINITELY SHOP HERE!!!

This Japanese market and food court is my go to place for amazing (and affordable) Japanese food staples. When Im in the area, I get my fix of soy sauces, seaweed wraps, candies, cookies and baked goods I could only get Japan when I traveled. Unlike the larger Japanese supermarket right down the street, I find most of the prices are reasonable and I get a little more for my dollars. It doesnt hurt that the food court food is amazing! I highly recommend this store.

An alternative and modest Japanese grocery store if youre looking for authentic Japanese products as well. I usually go to Mitsuwa marketplace in Arlington Heights, IL but sometimes last summer there would be a line and you would have to wait so long and then on top of it if you run out of imported Japanese rice its a first come first serve so they dont call you back at Mitsuwa. Do try their fresh sushi also its very good compared to what Mitsuwa Market has. Mitsuwa Market is a much more larger conglomerate since its somewhat Nationwide but I like this place better and I had seen a billboard advertisement before about this place and last year was a bucket list. I was very pleased or happy to discovering this hidden gem Japanese grocery store when theres no other alternative around the Chicagoland area in Elk Grove village near a strip mall between Arlington Heights Road and Higgins Road. If youre also looking for Japanese authentic ingredients or products this is another alternative place to go to beyond popular Mitsuwa Marketplace. I was impressed and liked that they take the extra mile when youre looking for a particular item when theyre out of it in stock they actually call you back. They go above and beyond for service. Reason for 5 stars

Want Asian groceries at a lower price than the big store up the street? Come here. The same items at as lower price. No bookstore, manga stand, or food court, but they do have carry out in the back.

A lot of the stuff here are cheaper than Mitsuwa, we will definitely come back again. Also, my hubby got me a cute lucky cat for Xmas, and I love it!!!

Amazing setting in a compact store! The food court was really well stocked with all types of options for food and method, be it pack it yourself bar, restaurant menu, or sushi. Fun 2$ section in back of the store, and a few aisles of home goods. Produce and meat options seemed substantial; not extensive, but varied enough.

Love this store. It has all you need for Japanese cooking (including my must-have natto beans).Eat at the food court here before you shop. It’s delicious, authentic Japanese food.Hard to go wrong with either this store or the one down the street. I come here often because it’s less crowded.

Fresh sushi is really delicious.

Such a great selection of breakfast and lunch items, and a great little market as well. Ordering online from the restaurant in back is super easy for a pick up and go lunch. I highly recommend the karaage!

Great place for getting those one off, special import items...along with a very good in house sushi counter. Obviously be prepared to pay a slight premium on imported items. Their meat and fish section though is quite reasonable and similar prices to bigger chain stores.

Clean and well stocked store All employees I have ever dealt with were very friendly and helpful.

So goood! The poke bowl is my go to!

I keep coming back to this little Japanese grocery store. They have most of the stuff from Japan I enjoy and their food court is reasonably priced and as a good quality. Today I had their seasonal special called buta don, very delicious and slightly spicy.

Best sushi in town and best service. Every time I am in the neighborhood I stop by.

My new favorite for Japanese goodies. Cheaper than mitsuwa and great sushis made to order. Very polite staff.

Similar to Mitsuwa market but much much smaller. Asian grocery with some prepared foods to go including hot dishes made to order in back.

Just stopping by checking this Japanese store, as soon as I got in I fell in love for it!💕 The store is super clean,Too many sea food that makes you wanna try it! Many products to adore and admire, Many plates to call gorgeous! The coworkers are friendly and they surprise me when they speak English!,So dont feel scared if you dont speak Japanese. I totally recommend anyone to come and enjoy the market 😉.

Salmon bento box is my favorite. Udon noodle Soup is exceptionally delicious especially on winter season.

Great service, great deals but under construction

This rating is for the food court carry out. I actually remember tensuke food court to be quite decent, thus i missed it while being quarantine. However am disappointed this time. The sushi rolls i have ordered are falling apart and not to mentioned it is done very unprofessionally, the pieces are uneven and seaweed for some are shorter than the rice. Tonkatsu for one of my orders is overburnted it is dark brown and it tasted old as if it has been recooked. The ginger salad dressing for one of my order is dried up I believe it is old as well. Due to this experience i am not planning to go back for awhile. Since the quality is inconsistent.

Good place to do a little shopping and grab quick lunch. Price is inexpensive but the quality shows it too. Service was fast and easy.

Great place for a quick specialty grocery run and small food court.

Great place with a restaurant if only they had more seating outside or a limit on sitting times there were people just sitting seeing others are looking for a place to sit and eat.

Best kept little secret in Chicago--a Daiso Japan goodies shop inside the supermarket, along with sit in cafeteria style eatery. Fresh seafood for sushi found here! Check it out!

The size will fool you, this place has plenty of good finds and yummy treats.

The best standard Japanese sushi around. Affordable and no frills but good.

Id rather give a 2.5 stars because Im so disappointed by the sashimi I ordered, but to be fair, the market itself is pretty good (though way smaller than Mitsuwa) and the sushi rolls/bento boxes are okay.I uploaded a photo of their Sashimi Deluxe Set which was $19. I dont know if its because of corona and finances are tight, or because I ordered take out, but look at the size of the shrimp and the squid in comparison to my fingers. Im a 51 petite Asian girl. FOUR slices of squid should NOT be the size of three of my fingers, especially at the price and quality of fish. If I ever visit Tensuke again, I will be buying my sashimi from the market section only instead of the food court.

Decent food at decent prices. The food court offerings are not going to blow you away but for the money you cant beat it. The real treat is in the market section. If youre looking for a wide variety of fresh fish this is the place to get it. In addition youll find lots of unique Japanese products ranging from movies to kitchen gadgets to dry foodstuffs. Highly recommended!

Good selection of oriental foods. I went for green tea ice cream!

Sunday early lunch visit. We had Katsudon, it came with miso soup and salad. We also had the Chicken karaaga plate, it came with miso soup, salad and rice. Both dishes were very good, the serving size was quite large, we ended up taking half of each home for dinner. We were early and had no trouble getting a table and the food was ready in short order.

A smaller alternative to Mitsuwa but dont expect similar food standards and cheaper price tag.We came here on a Saturday noon, there was a good crowd here but by no means beyond capacity to the point that we cant find seats at the food court.We ordered three packs of sushi premade on the side on the aisle leading to the food court and a bowl of Tonkotsu ramen.The sushi were decent, the sashimi inside were fresh and not too small, but not generous. Overall the sushi were quite small and nothing that stands out.The Tonkotsu broth in the ramen was terrible. I felt like a ladle of cream was dumped in and it was like a milk pasta broth with miso and pork. The other ingredients were subpar too and I dont bother writing them as the star is bad enuf already.Im giving them a 3 stars because I think I will still come back and try other stuff like the bento bowls and rice menus which are something different from Mitsuwa and perhaps these are the better things to order. Also their supermarket is small but really good. They even have small Daiso section and lovely Japanese soft toys.

Great place to stop for a quick bite while you shop around the market. Better tasting food (rolls; tempra udon, etc.) from Tensuke food market at much cheaper prices than some of the Japanese restaurants. The overall price on items (Japanese crackers; gift shop items, etc.) seem to be cheaper than near by Mitsuwa Japanese market, too.

Fresh food, if you love Japanese food thats the place

Clean and well organized. Prices were surprisingly good! Whatever youre looking for, there are many products to choose from. Prime members get some perks for delivery and pick up. Ive never seen so many employees working in a store before!

Amazing sushi at amazing prices. A hidden gem.

Nice market with fresh dine-in food and groceries. Also some nice quality home goods. I was impressed with the variety!

Big selection and friendly staff. They also accept EBT where Mitsuwa does not. This is my new spot for Japanese groceries.

This is a fantastic market for its quality fish, reasonable prices, and great customer service.

One of my favorite Japanese stops. Similar in size to a large Japanese convenience store with an amazing selection of both groceries and food in the eatery in back. Great $3 Daiso selection also!

I come here 3-4 times a month at least. BEST sushi I have tried. My favorite menu item is the Oishii combo, but sometimes I like trying other things in the menu. Today I tried the poké bowl, which turned out to be surprisingly good. The quality is incomparable for the price and the service is fast and polite. Totally recommend for an original japanese meal.

Best and freshest seafood anywhere! Reasonable prices and friendly employees!Highly recommend!

Mom and pop shop with a great restaurant and even better fresh rice balls. Since its just down the road from Mitsuwa, this has become our new go-to for Japanese food when we dont want to handle the crowds. I highly recommend the seafood soup (not fishy at all, just lovely salmon/shrimp/tofu in a savory broth), as well as the curry rice, which comes as an optional side with several of the menu options. Instant favorite.

Great japanese market and food court is great order to go

Japan marketPrice very highInside food is ok not great but is okPeople nice kindly

Sjxidixhudoeufydyudieidhsgsndodib3bd8nrb3ie8xufvrvrjichc fbf7cnrribfjd7jf9d3u. Oh fa pub Ah b x hmm y. N. X.d..

Traditional style and traditional taste. Very good.

Really good selection and price. Has pretty much everything youd need from Mitsuwa in a much smaller space with generally better prices. Food court is excellent as well. Great lunch spot if you work in Schaumburg. Easy drive down Higgins.

It was hard to find a good place which has takoyaki. Few places in the area do not have it, and the ones that have it -it doesnt look good. The same thing is with ramen and sushi. I came across this place and wanted to give them a chance. Ordered takoyaki and Godzilla roll set. It is not enough to say it was AWESOME! Way more than expected! I got some spring rolls extra. Next thing that I will try is definitely a ramen. Especially now during this Corona situation when places that are open are limited. Delivery is not expensive like in some other places 🙄

A wonder, small local grocery store that always has the best products to cure my Japanese homesickness. The food court is also a great place to get some authentic Japanese home cooking. The Tensuke point card system is also a great perk if you make frequent visits!

Wonderful Asian market and amazing sushi restaurant!

If I could give this place 6 stars, I would. We love the sushi from the back of the store (the quality seems exceptional, yet it is extremely cheap compared to most nice restaurants). The rest of the store is great too, with a variety of fish selection and Japanese desert goodies. 👍

They have wonderful food and other things too.

Its currently having some construction done inside, so its not the prettiest Ive seen it, but dont let that fool you! The selection was very decent for shopping, and the sushi counter is wonderful! It has some of the best prices for some of the best sushi Ive seen in the area. We make a trek out from beyond the suburbs, about an hour, to get there and it is absolutely worth it! Ive seen much fancier and avant-garde sushi places that try to bring you in with the decor, and well this place is plain and and is partially a grocery mart, it is fantastic. You absolutely do not need the bling to get good take away sushi. On top of that, well the grocery currently doesnt have the best selection due to some limited shelving space due to the construction, they do have a very serviceable selection that you can use to keep stocked up on the basics for cooking your own cuisine.

We went for the annual blue fin tuna carving and it was incredible!! The tuna was so fresh and amazing. I was really impressed with the food and the store. It takes a lot for me to go to another Japanese market with Mitsuwa being just down the street. Tensuke manages to do just that. I might not go there for Ramen but I would definitely buy fish and sushi there. I really appreciate the fact that they will sashimi any piece of fish you buy there for free and then give you an ice pack to keep it cold when you check out.It was an all around great place. Ill definitely be back.

Better food than Mitsuwa (not factoring their food court--just the grocery store itself). Mitsuwa used to be great, but over the years theyve become too commercialized to the detriment of the fresh food. What Mitsuwa has gained over Tensuke however, is more Americanized merchandizing of the aisles themselves. Tensuke has the distinctive Asian merchandizing/displays that feels more authentic and better mirrors supermarkets in Asia, whether thats a pro or con to people. I like it.

I highly recommend ordering from their food court ! Everything is delicious.They are currently expanding their store, so its a little crowded inside, but Im excited for all the new options!They have a great fish selection and it is conveniently marked fish for cooking or fish for sushi.

Everything is real good a must try!!....love their ramen,sushi,etc...

Uhhh best sushi I’ve.... ever had??? Why is it sooo good???? You gotta order the sushi in the cafe in the back. Don’t get the premade ones. Trust me. The king of salmon is my go to.

Amazing food and sushi I love that they put a small label on the Asian drinks so you know whats the flavor when you buy, very helpful and appreciated. My wife loves the cute socks lol

Really love grabbing food from here when Im in the area. Their musubi and onigiri are fantastic snacks on the road. Highly recommend the tuna salmon roll if youre in the mood for quick sushi fix

Delicious and at very reasonable prices with fast delivery! Heres is a picture of the meal we just ordered and ate and it was quite satisfying. Picture from left to right is the Salmon Crunch Roll, Spider Roll, and my personal favorite on the far right, the Dragon Roll which was awesome.The above average quality with the very easy and quick doorstep delivery is what especially pleased our office. This is extra important to note since even Jimmy Johns doesnt deliver to our address. Will definitely order again!

I love this place. I have been here a few times and have never had a bad meal. The prices are fair and the food is always fresh. This is my go to spot for sushi.

We love Tensuke. Their food is terrific. Weve ordered catering from them on numerous occasions. Their sushi is some of the best around and we do regular trips to stock up on the market. Their employees are always courteous and the store is super clean.

Good prices and small convenient store with most essential things expected from a market. Still under construction and expanding. Offers free ice! (2 per person)

The sushi is great and I love all the candies and cookies from Japan. Easier to get in and out of than Mitsuwa.

Love it. Drive 45-60 minutes for this place. Excited for the expansion as their selection + prices were already pretty good.

A small store for Japanese items. The staff were very helpful. They are currently renovating and have significant areas tarped off, so I cant wait to visit again when they are finished!

Always fresh. Sushi bar orders never miss a thig. I highly recommend this place.

I simply cannot live without this market.

Great Japanese Grocery Store! You can find many good deals.

Very clean, always well stocked. Lines moved fast and employees are always great to see. Im sure theyre smiling behind their masks.

A great little grocery store, but what really makes it stand out is the cafe in the back. Tasty food, fair prices, hearty servings, quick service and a nice variety of options

I love it here! I get all my fish from here 🙂

My favorite Japanese market! It’s small but they have a ton of stuff & I love the Daiso section of the store for home goods, cooking tools & stationary. I also love ordering the food from their eatery. The sushi is always fresh & very affordable.

Japanese grocery store with a cafe in the back. Great prices and great food! The wait can sometimes be long for lunch. I had the seafood soup which took so long that my friend was finished eating before I even got my food.

Great food at a reasonable price. Ate the chicken with salad. Filling and tasty. The only problem I have is the amount of waste generated by all the plastic ware used.

Dont get me wrong - the pre-made sushi there are delicious and fresh. The problem I have is that unlike Mitsua, Tensukes sushis have a delicious added sauce that has chemical preservatives and that causes huge pressure headache for 10+ hours if you are sensitive to those like I am.

Fresh fish for sushi.. Store is getting bigger.

Delicious fresh sushi grade fish. We love this place.
