Typhoon Cafe

Like everyone else mentioned below:
Convenient location (downstairs of the Aon Center next to the Lakeshore Athletic Club) The first thing that caught my eye about this place is the BIG sign in front of their entrance stating «NO MSG», a very good thing!
The food was plentiful, but average in taste. I had the curry chicken bento box. Lot of food starting with soup, then a california roll, three maki rols a salad and the chicken with a side of steamed rice.
I would definitely go back for the convenience, but not necessarily as a preference.

It’s convenient and the sushi is pretty decent. However, the other food offered is not that great at all. I would take the extra time to walk to the building next door and go to Panda if I were you.
It’s decent to hold a lunch meeting, you’ll never be disturbed as there is never anyone in here. They are also a little overpriced and the food seems to stay on the serving bar for too long as it’s somewhat overcooked and/​or soggy.

This is a convenient lunch option; certainly nothing amazing but when I succumb to pot sticker cravings (top 5 food, hands down), I would come here bc I work in the building. HOWEVER if you’re going to try this place please watch out for the wicked woman in charge. It’s hard not to ignore her berating her workers to the point of physically shoving them out from behind the register.
I also recently had the unfortunate experience of having the woman charge at me LIKE A BULL. She made a scene accusing me of trying to get away with paying for one order of potstickers when it was simply my friend and I paying for our respective orders (not that she tried to listen). It was a little too much to handle for a quick lunch stop and it was so off putting that I haven’t been back since. On principle.

The standouts here are the egg rolls and pot stickers. Very good stuff. The rest of the Chinese fare is on par with Panda Express. They can be a bit sneaky too, I asked for Mongolian beef (of which they were clearly out) and she gave me pepper beef and said nothing. Either it’s the same stuff, or they don’t care enough to get it right. It can be a bit pricey, but it’s worth if for the egg rolls. Try and get them fresh if you can!

Best Eggrolls in the city, hands down. I’ve been eating here for years & they haven’t let me down yet! Try the edamame & the plum wine.

Not a bad place to pick up some sushi if you’re in the neighborhood, I wouldn’t consider i t the best sushi place in town but for a downtown joint it’s actually not too bad. I have an aversion to sushi places downtown since sushi is already expensive and after they add the downtown surcharge it’s ridiculous.
