They make any accommodations you need and really care about their regulars and new customers alike! Being a regular here is such a worthwhile experience, Sake was definitely like a second home!

We finally approached the bartender and asked if we were to seat ourselves. They hesitated for a moment and called someone to come help us. We continued waiting another few minutes and a server came and put our name on the list. Though the restaurant was about 30% seated we waited about 20 minutes. We were sat and our server told us it'd be a minute longer before she could get to us. We sat at the table closest to the open air kitchen. Server showed up after us waiting another 5 minutes. We ordered and the food came up quickly and everything looked and smelled amazing. The gyoza came out hot and very flavorful. The pho looked better than it tasted, it was bland though the vegetables and proteins were cooked good. The flavor was more like a broth, it lacked substance, umami and depth as I expected. The prices are a bit high, the environment was bright and loud, definitely not a place for that first date. But great place if you and your friends are wanting to sit and talk loudly to each other. Overall not the best but a good place to take someone who's not expecting real traditional flavors.

I tried this place after a long day on the road and the first part kinda went ok, but the food made…read moreup for the first part of the service, we arrived at 2100(9:00 PM) so I am sure the staff had been there all day and was slightly tired. However I took the staff 15 minutes before they took our order, they were in the corner just talking and laughing. Being apart of the food industry for a few years, you never keep a customer waiting no more than a few minutes. We order a few menu options, the Tiger roll, the eel roll, shrimp tempura and spider rolls. The food was on point and done very well considering the time of night it was, I was very happy to see the effort put in during the end of the night. The restaurant looks and feels like a Japanese sushi restaurant with the symbols and the straw hut appearance on the inside, some also had wooden benches against the wall, and a sushi bar in front where you can watch them prepare it in front of you. I have had better experiences in other sushi restaurants, but this was a great recovery by the staff and the experience went well!

Every time I've ordered the veggie fried rice, it's been amazing. I had never tried Thai fried rice before this place, and honestly it was a really good introduction to it. I paired it with the Tiger Orange Chicken both times I ordered. The first time it was pretty good and leaned more positive overall, but the second time it was extremely dry, almost like jerky. Even with that, I'd still recommend trying the fried rice because that was definitely the standout item for me.

I thought it sounded fun so why not, we headed there to get a table and have some food. However, when we arrived, their friend's parents already had a table and invited us to sit with them. The menu is extensive and has a lot of options, yet the hot pot definitely caught my eye! Nobody else was getting it though, so I decided to save that for the next time. Instead, I ordered Poached Beef in Chili O il because it was as close to hot pot as I could get. I also ordered Garlic Bok Choy, and Roasted Pork Chow Mein. They must've heard me wrong because they brought me out Chow Mei Fun. It did end up being a happy accident because it was really good, and I've never tried it before. My son ordered orange chicken and his friend ordered General Tso chicken. The Poached Beef was amazing! And I really enjoyed the Mei Fun. The Bok Choy was just ok. It was missing some umami. I also really enjoyed open mic and truly hope they continue that in the future...though they do need to work on the sound system and figure it out a bit more because the highest pitch screaming from the speakers almost made my ears bleed LOL. No, but in all seriousness, it was a lot of fun and we will definitely be visiting Taste Place again!!!
