I am absolutely not a sushi expert. I either like it or I like it a lot. Jaku Sushi falls in the category of I LOVE IT! We've been to Jaku North and were curious to see if this location was as good. Except for a smaller size restaurant, the two were identical in quality and enjoyment. We started our meal off with Gyoza. Dumplings were perfectly prepared and not over cooked. What I think may be unusual about this item is that it contains both pork and chicken. Great flavors! We then ordered spicy tuna rolls and Tiger rolls from the House Roll menu. Simply put, these rolls were probably the best we've had since our last Japan visit. I usually use a lot of wasabi because I just love wasabi. After one roll I greatly reduced my wasabi use to allow the wonderful flavors to come through more clearly. Jaku's menu reminds me of a "Wall of Bourbon" you see in many bars. You want to try everything!! read more

Jaku Sushi - Spicy tuna rolls, Tiger rolls - Sushi Bars Near Me - Caledonia, Michigan

I really wanted to fall in love with this place. The dining area? Spot-on--clean, modern, and inviting. Service? Friendly and on point. Menu? Looked like a dream. But the food... that's where it lost me. The Mango Tango roll was a stunner to look at, but once I dug in, it was drowning in sauce. I like my sushi fresh and bright--not hidden under a saucy slip 'n slide. Not bad but not showcasing what I was there for. The orange ceviche also showed up looking gorgeous, but one bite and I felt like I'd just chugged seawater. The saltiness was off the charts. My blood pressure is still elevated. Not a disaster, not a dream--just a solid "meh." Three stars. Could be amazing on the right night, but my night wasn't it. read more

The first time we went here was on valentine's day! The atmosphere was great and because it was so busy this day, the people watching was great! so uplifting and lively in this restaurant. We got a mixture of foods to try and it was all great! We had lots to bring home after (I love left overs! ... who doesn't!?) and it still tasted so good the next day. The only thing we would say is that the food was a little pricey, but the restaurant was very put together and we had the best time! Would go again! Just a plus but the cups were so fun! read more

Food was fantastic with great flavor. Small environment with great service. Sushi was nice size and fresh.

Jake Sushi has fantastic food and good service. We had a couple of sushi burritos (think giant sushi pieces the size of a burrito). Amazing! Likely overlooked in the collection of big chains of so-so fast food surrounding it. Give it a try. read more

This is a cute place and the service is very friendly. The salad and sushi rolls were good. The bulgogi was not good. It had an unpleasant mealy texture, not sure if it was poor quality or very overcooked, something. Unfortunately, Seoul Market is closed on Mondays, my favorite place for bulgogi. read more

The sushi burritos here are monstrous! They are so filling and delicious. I was only in town for an event, but I would drive out of my way to come back. The service was great and the restaurant is cute and clean. I loved every minute! read more

Service fast and friendly. Seating is limited but the menu is huge. Choosing what to eat was so difficult as it all sounded good. Had the bulgogi roll, and shu mai dumplings, orange ceviche And cucumber rolls. The cucumber rolls tasted so fresh and light. I would use the word delicate to describe the shu mai and ceviche too. The roll came with dipping sauce but really didn't need anything extra. It did kind of fall apart at the end but just at the rest with chopsticks. Im inclined to believe all their dishes are great. Can't wait to go back and try more. read more

Been here only once but it was a great experience. We got there as soon as they opened and it was great timing because it got packed quick.

Upon entering the restaurant, it was slightly smaller than I expected. The interior was designed in a very modern way and had a nice aesthetic to it. We first ordered the salmon poke appetizer. The presentation was nice, it came with rice and slices of avocado, topped with sesame seeds. The poke sauce was very very good. Unfortunately, the salmon was very fishy so it was a disappointment. I ordered the tuna combo while the other person ordered the tonkatsu bento. We also ordered a yellowpeno roll to share between the two of us. The tuna combo came with a miso soup, 5 tuna nigiri, and a tuna roll. The miso soup was good. The tuna roll caught me by surprise, it was better than the nigiri. It was chopped up finely but you could tell that there weren't fillers in it. It had a slight spice to it, which I enjoyed. The tuna nigiri was also similar to the salmon poke, it was quite fishy. It was quite unfortunate because I thought that a place with the name "sushi" in it would have better quality fish. Maybe it was just a bad day when I went. I tried a little bit of the tonkatsu bento and it was tasty! It came with tempura shrimp and vegetables. The tempura had a very light yet crisp batter to it, and it wasn't oily. The tonkatsu was fried perfectly. Overall, a pretty good dish. The yellowpeno roll that we shared was definitely spicy and had a hint of sourness. The fish and ingredients were fresh but I wasn't a huge fan of the flavor combination. The total came to about $90 for two people. It was definitely on the higher end so I wish that I had better fish quality for my nigiri and poke. Overall, this restaurant didn't have the WOW factor to me. It wasn't horrible but wasn't amazing either. It was just okay. read more

My family loves Jaku...when you can get a table. We lucked out and got in before the dinner rush. South location by M-6 and Kalamazoo is super small. The North location on East Beltline has a little more seating. Our server was attentive and our food came out rather quickly. I loved the reusable Chopstick Helper that made it fun and easy for my daughter. Love the udon - great flavor, perfectly cooked noodles, and a yummy soft boiled egg that's slightly runny. Shrimp shumai stuck together, but gives you the shrimp taste you're looking for. The spicy tuna roll is okay. Everyone loved the California roll. A sushi burrito with soy paper is usually on my list when I have a big appetite! read more

Really good sushi. Great wait staff and ambiance. I had the yellowpeno roll. Kinda spicy but I knew what I was getting into. The nigiri was delicious. Great quality. I had the Ahi and Mackerel. Also had a fresh fried (good clean oil) slider hand roll in soy. All very good, fresh and delicious. Jaku deserves the high praise they are getting. See you next time. read more

We placed a huge takeout order for 8 people that ended up being $300 after the tip. We ordered everything from sushi, sashimi, bento boxes, rice dishes, and Bibimbap. It was nice of the restaurant to call us right after we placed the online order to let us know that it would take longer than the standard time the website provides, which we expected. We walked in and our whole order was taking up an entire table. They basically just pointed and said it was ours. That seemed a little strange considering we just spent $300 and no one thanked us or helped us carry anything. The food was pretty good. I probably wouldn't order the bibimbap again just because it's not meant for a takeout box. The sushi was very tasty and the fried rice was good. read more

Jaku Sushi - Bibimbap - Sushi Bars Near Me - Caledonia, Michigan

We just moved to the area and needed a good Asian spot to try. Jaku had good reviews and it did not disappoint. The Bibimbap (Korean style rice bowl) w/ bulgogi beef and assorted cooked veggies was excellent! I have had my fair share of Bibimbap bowls in the past and this one ranks up there as one of the best. Their sushi is good too. I only had a salmon roll this time. I will definitely try some of the other menu items next time. We got our food as take out but I noticed it is super small inside. There were no delays and our food was prepared pretty quickly. I can't wait to eat here again. read more

Food was great but my waitress counted my cash incorrectly. Also she carried bad vibes. Couldn't enjoy my 5 star delicious meal with that pit feeling in my stomach. Would come again, hopefully I get a different waitress next time. read more

I have eaten at Jaku for a few years now, and I've never felt disappointed. The food is excellent, always fresh and flavorful. The restaurant is very tiny, but it takes advantage of that with its calm, clean environment. The employees are nice and helpful, and service overall is fast for sushi. I definitely recommend to those wanting sushi. It is on the pricier side, but the portions are big enough that I can say they match the price. I recommend to any newcomers to try the crunch munch burrito with eel sauce. It is a favorite! read more

Very small place but food is great to satisfy for some sushi! I've came here a few times but never took pictures until now. I always get the Crunch Munch Sushi Burrito and it's one of the best things on their menu. Anything for a sushi burrito, I'm coming to this spot. Workers are very kind and I can't wait to check in more to explore more options on their menu! read more

Jaku Sushi - Crunch Munch Burrito - Sushi Bars Near Me - Caledonia, Michigan

Ordered eel and bulgogi bento here which included a piece of sushi, tempura, salad, and edamame. Portion on the protein was small, but quality was great. Eel was soft, moist, flavorful and no bones. Bulgogi was standard tasting and could have used more sauce. I liked the orange dressing over the ginger one for the salad because it's sweeter vs savory/salty. This place seems to take considerable care in preparing their food and I appreciate that. read more

Went for lunch, at Jaku South, for the first time and ordered the Seafood Ramen and added Chasu. My wife got her favorite, Bulgogi and Rice. Service was as steady as always, with friendly and attentive servers. Ate inside. It is small, and feels a little tight, but a part of the experience. read more

Highly satisfactory visit. Came in for a Monday lunch and was greeted and seated immediately. Ordered 4 sushi rolls, Agedashi tofu, and a tempura udon. The Iceland volcano roll was the most delicious on its own. The seared salmon scent could be detected even before it reached the table. The other 3 rolls were good, but I'd try other ones with my next visits. The Tempura Udon was delicious, but felt still hungry after eating just this. The noodle quantity could be increased a little in my opinion. Agedashi tofu was good, but I expected the outside to be a bit more crispy. It is fried, but when it got to the table even the dry (not touching the sauce at the bottom) parts were not crispy at all. The mushrooms were delicious in it. Prices of rolls seemed to be averagely priced for sushi resteraunts with special rolls being around $13 each. Waitress was attentive and we were in and out with no problem. Would recommend to try! read more

We love going to Jaku, since it's near our condo in Kentwood. The inside is small, but cozy. There is a couple of outdoor tables for seating, and they have an active carry out business. Servers are friendly, and open to questions about the menu. The food comes quick and the hot dishes, are hot. My favorite is Dolsot Bibimbap and my wife likes the beef bulgaldi. There is usually enough to take home for another meal. We top it off sharing the fried mochi. read more

I am really disappointed in how the prices keep getting higher and higher. I ordered a crunch munch burrito last week at $18 and this week it had gone up to $20. just a couple of years ago it was $13. I may have to choose another restaurant if they continue to raise prices this is ridiculous. read more

I have been having big cravings for sushi throughout the stay at home order. Lucky for me, Jaku South was there to rescue me from another meal at home. Their to-go experience was seamless with online ordering. Once I arrived in the parking lot, a quick phone call resulted in a masked & gloved employee hustling out to my car with my order. The rolls were securely packaged and survived the drive home in my cooler very well. I ordered one of my favorites, the Icelandic volcano and one "new to me" fire crunch roll. The Icelandic is one I keep on repeat because I like the contrast of cool cucumber, spicy salmon, and sweet sauce on top... who doesn't like sweet & heat? The fire crunch roll was a good choice for the umami of shitake and tuna. It was rolled in masago, which definitely made me happy! Can't wait to return for in person dining with a friend. read more
