Just returned to Denmark from a nice Eastern holiday in Hoboken NJ…read more We found Saka by coincidence. Ordered Red Dragon and Saka rolls, salmon nigri and Edamame with seasalt, and we did that again 2 times more during our holiday. The Red Dragon rolls tasted good and crispy, the Saka rolls with Mango was sweet and exiting, we had'nt tasted that kind of roll before. Can just say, great service, delicious food and prices that reflex the quality. Thanks and please open in Denmark

Saka has a solid offer of Any 3 Rolls for ~$20. Their selection of rolls is more limiting than other places; would love if they had yellowtail or scallop as options at lunch. Nonetheless, the rolls I got were solid! The fish was fresh and the portion was great, the rice layer wasn't thick at all which is a big factor for me, and to my surprise, it came with both a miso soup & salad. The miso soup was pretty flavorful compared to others I've had and the salad came with a sesame dressing that was so refreshing with the crisp salad. I should've kept my order at that as the Crispy Spicy Salmon wasn't worth it. The crispy rice was slightly too hard/over-fried and the portion of spicy salmon was so tiny. The rice layer should be fully topped with salmon, unlike what they gave. It didn't taste half bad but I'd probably skip it next time. If you order for delivery, their insulated packaging is great for transport and temperature control. Solid try!

We've been coming here for a few years, and unfortunately the experience has declined noticeably…read moreover time -- which is disappointing because the restaurant has a lot of potential and a great market. We've visited almost every Thursday during the winter, and the dining room has repeatedly been uncomfortably cold. Most guests, including us, kept our jackets on throughout the meal. When we asked about it, we received conflicting explanations: the manager said the heat had just been turned on because dinner service was starting, while our server told us the heater was broken. Given that we experienced the same issue earlier in the winter -- when space heaters were set up -- it seems like a known problem that hasn't been properly addressed. The bathrooms were even colder, which made things especially uncomfortable. On top of that, the bathroom fixtures had rough, visible trim/paste around the edges, which looked unfinished and unappealing. The food quality has also slipped. The Korean fried chicken bites used to be a favorite, but this time they tasted like plain store-bought chicken breast with only a light drizzle of gochujang -- barely enough to notice any flavor. When our drinks arrived, the server joked that they would "warm us up," which felt a bit tone-deaf given how cold the space was. As a long-time customer, it's disappointing to say this will likely be our last visit.

I also had the old Fashioned Pearl drink which I enjoyed! All in all a great experience!

All their locations are always in a speakeasy vibe with 90's hip hop decor and music blasting. For the 13 pieces omakase, it's $65 with various fresh nigiris. I like that they have a Wagyu and uni piece included as well, but my favorites were the shrimp, scallop, and fatty tuna pieces. Such a fun vibe and great basic omakase. This visit reminded me why Sushi by Bou is always a solid choice and you can't go wrong dining here. Their add-on pieces are pricey though.

We got crab rangoons, Salmon avocado roll, Philadelphia roll, and spicy tuna roll…read more Rangoons were very stuffed with cream cheese, almost too much. Not enough crab. And the sauce they came with was too sweet, i prefer more of a sweet chili sauce. Also, they were a little undercooked, not enough crisp. The sushi rolls were all fantastic. Definitely Meets my standards. Filled really well, not too much rice, ingredients tasted fresh. And the spicy tuna was not too spicy which is what I prefer, and it was very gushy, which I love. Overall, i loved the sushi. Would definitely return for more sushi.

The sushi roll was fairly standard, though thankfully, contained more eel than it had on my previous order. The soup, however, was excellent! The broth was rich and flavorful; it contained tender strips of white meat chicken, shitake mushrooms, and a handful of other vegetables. It was fantastic and definitely worth ordering again. The pair made for the perfect late evening meal to tide me over until the next day.

Ordered: 3 Roll Lunch Combo (~$17): salmon avocado, spicy…read moretuna, and spicy scallop (+$2) rolls with miso soup Aya's take: I love a sushi lunch special and have been on the hunt for my favorite in the area! Robongi's lunch special is from 11am-4pm on weekdays. You have a choice between 2 or 3 rolls and it comes with a soup or salad. All the fish tasted super fresh and the fish-to-rice ratio was on point! I loved the salmon avocado and spicy tuna; those are 2 classics I tend to get wherever a lunch special is offered. I also got the spicy scallop which came at an up-charge. A lot of places don't offer this so I didn't mind the additional $2. Flavor-wise, I actually enjoyed it a lot but there was a lot of tempura crunch when I would have preferred it to be all scallop. The miso soup had a rich umami flavor but not much tofu in it. Good quality, reasonably priced, and super fast service!

I…read morecame here on a date night and we ordered the Hoboken roll, the Philadelphia roll, the eel avocado roll, the optimistic roll, and shrimp shumai. My favorite was the eel avocado roll. I'm not the biggest fan of cream cheese in my roll so my least favorite was the Philadelphia roll. I ordered a peach iced tea. The service was great and attentive. When we walked in without a reservation we were able to be seated right away as it wasn't busy. As we started to eat our rolls, the restaurant did get busier with time. Dates and families coming in for their dinner. I have to be honest and say the shrimp shumai wasn't all that special but overall the presentation of the sushi and taste was pretty good. The shumai tasted okay to me, I have had better elsewhere and they looked different. They were tiny. All in all, I would come back and recommend this restaurant to sushi lovers. 10/10 restaurant recommendation.

My girl and I arrived at 6:55 for our 7:00 and were seated almost right away. The hostess initially attempted to seat is down this long hallway near the service area with no windows. I wasn't impressed and asked her if she could move us to a better table which she promptly obliged. After we sat down at our new table man oh man! Talk about a sexy, sophisticated ambiance! The place had a fun, electric energy to it which I really appreciated! Everyone was dressed superbly! The DJ was amazing too! Definitely set the tone for the night. My friend and I ordered a few glasses of prosecco and she had the lamb chops while I tried the chopped salad and the lobster Diavolo. Both were superb! Out waiter Dylan explained that it was seasoned a little on the spicier side so I asked if they could prepare it a little milder for me if it wasn't too much trouble. They did and it was absolutely amazing. A nice touch was when Jake, the Hospitality Lead stopped by our table to check on us and gave us an even warmer welcome when he heard we were from out of town! It was a great ending to a superb dining experience!

They do have valet, which helps because parking over there is definitely a headache. Overall, really good experience and perfect spot for a celebration. Would go back.
