JMK Nippons

I am not a super sushi aficionado or anything but the dragon roll from here was the best I have had. The fried was mediocre. My co worker ordered something that I cant pronounce and he was very delighted by it and said he would drive from Chicago to Rockford to buy this item. Overall good experience, I would just pass on the fried rice next time.

Hands down JMK is one of the best in Rockford. The teppan tables are much like you’d expect, but the Masa Café side is awesome. Great sushi, traditional Japanese entrees, and more. My personal favorite is a bento box for lunch.

Are you people kidding me there are no reviews for a place like this. It’s the wife and I’s favorite. You can bring the entire family and all sit around the grill top tables while the chef performs culinary tricks and flaming onion towers. Toss shrimp tails in your mouth. Chefs telling you bad corny jokes… All the while they are cooking you hot fresh food right in front of you. The outdoor seating is very peaceful in the summer months. Fish swimming everywhere in ponds and in lobby floors. Children will love yhis place. Samurai swords and costumes.
Now all of that is still just for the amateurs. Once you have seen the show a few times, it is not the main focus of this place which is what I feel is overshadowed.
This place has the best sushi in the midwest we have ever put our mouths on. From Minneapolis MN to South of Chicago. Madison, WI to Milwaukee WI nobody does it better. The surf-​n-​turf is my wife’s favorite. I really enjoy the Kentucky roll amongst many more. For all you reading this post that are now turned off because I brought up sushi. Try these two rolls and you will now be in love with sushi. Sushi is not all raw fish or tuna like most people think. Read the sushi menu. Dont be afraid to ask a few questions. The servers will walk you through it. I cant tell you how many people we have turned on to this place over the years. TURNED ON TO SUSHI… Have fun with this new found love for an adventurous food and try something new. You may just shock yourself that you too love sushi and never knew it. Make a new date night out of this.
My favorite place for an awesome house made hot sauce. I usually buy some and bring it home. It is hot! You are now informed and warned. ENJOY.
