Sagano
Monique S.

I was craving sushi. So I stoped in Sagano for a a few rolls. I usually go for hibachi so this was my first time on the sushi / restaurant side. I got Sweet Potato Roll w/Avo and an Avocado roll. They have sushi chefs, and the waitress was attentive. My sake tiki was good. Kind of sweet. The sushi was made fresh and delicious. Perfect lunch.

Top/Bottom: Shrimp nigiri, East Roll, Crunchy Roll, Diet Roll (we received one too many) and Sweet Potato Roll

Decent sushi for the Flint area. There are not many sushi places in the Flint area. Sagano is a huge place near-ish the Genesee Valley Mall and one side of the restaurant is their Hibachi grill experience and the other is for the "normal" restaurant. My friends and I ordered a few things: * Diet Roll - vegetable tempura roll with avocado * Sweet potato roll * Two pieces of tamago (egg nigiri) Overall: the food was great. Prices are a lot cheaper than some sushi places I've been to and we even got an extra roll and also two pieces of sushi we didn't order. We aren't sure why, but we didn't question it! In addition to the rolls, you get soup and salad for free and your choice of miso or clear broth soup (I chose the later) and salad with sesame or ginger dressing (I ordered the former). The service was also great despite her having to repeat herself to confirm our order (just ensured we got everything we ordered). I would probably come back here if I'm back in the Flint area and want sushi!

The Soup is awesome and it gives you that Cousy winter feeling

The hibachi was amazing - not greasy, and really good sushi! I would order from here again.

They seem to never be open. Very frustrating when craving sushi but can never get through to anyone.

Do not order a large carry out order. It took almost an hour after they told me when it would be ready.

Habachi Buffet is a staple in the buffet scene in Flint/ Genesee County. I love how diverse and…read morevast their offerings are, and they frequently innovate new stuff. The KBBQ ribs/ steak is new and so on par with what I was craving the other day. There's tons and tons of seating, and they can accommodate parties. They've got a sushi bar, a hibachi preparation area, soups, and desserts. They've got Chinese-American staples like General Tso's, black pepper chicken, and fried noodles and rice. The lighting is dim, but I don't find that to be a bad thing. You will eat lots and eat good here. The waitstaff are prompt to seat you, refill your drinks, and get you your bill as soon as you ask.

Stopped in with friends for a late afternoon lunch about 3:00. We were seated right away and our…read morewaitress took our drink order. The place has an Asian vibe with soft music playing in the background. The selection on the buffet was huge plus they offer the Hibachi area where they will grill up your own concoction of meats veggies and seasonings. The Sushi area had a wide selection of actual sushi along with veggie and "non fish" selections. They also had a peel and eat shrimp area by the sushi. All of the food I tried was very tasty and I was impressed that for mid afternoon, the food was fresh and regularly refilled. We were able to take advantage of the "Lunch Special" pricing that was good until 4:00 along with the senior discount which made for a very reasonably priced lunch.We will definitely be returning.

I ordered a takeout and damn it was good…read more I had the samurai combo which included the medium rare steak, chicken and shrimp. The noodles on the side were amazing and probably the best I ever had. The service I took the drive through so there wasn't much to talk about there other than he seemed to be a nice friendly guy. Not so sure about the location the environment is really dark, and the brick building looks kinda weird within the location but I guess you should never judge a book by its cover. Would definetly come back once I come back to flint for another trip.

A friend and I went around 7:20pm on a Sunday and somehow felt completely invisible. The "hostess"…read more(big burly guy, huge silver chain, you can't miss him) sat us but didn't bring menus or say anything, so we just sat there confused for a solid 8 minutes. Our server eventually came over with menus, and then it took another 7-ish minutes before we could even order. It wasn't even that busy, which made it more confusing. The miso soup was actually good, lots of seaweed and scallions, love that. But the spoon?? Tiny handle, thick base, and weirdly hot to hold. I felt like I was fighting it the whole time. The crab rangoon though? Delicious. Super creamy filling, not overly crunchy on the outside (which I personally prefer). And the dipping sauce was more on the liquid side, which honestly worked because it coated the rangoon really well instead of just sitting there like jelly. We didn't get side plates. At first they brought out a fork and knife instead of chopsticks (those showed up later with the sushi). Not a huge deal, just... odd. The soy sauce tasted old and STRONG strong. And the bottle was dirty, which didn't help. The floors were also sticky, my shoes were literally sticking on the way out. The whole place smelled like grease and now my jacket does too. Love that for me. Rolls: * Spider Roll - way too many scallions and kind of a weird flavor. * Shrimp Tempura Roll - actually very good, no notes. * Hellfire Roll - nice spicy kick and HUGE. Each piece was basically two bites. The worst part? I left with pretty bad stomach cramps, and these are super normal rolls for me that I order all the time elsewhere. There were a couple decent moments, but between the slow service, sticky floors, questionable soy sauce, and how I felt after... I probably won't be back. Or maybe just grab carry out and stick to simple rolls and those crab rangoons. If I left smelling like fryer oil (one of my biggest pet peeves) and clutching my stomach, I am not handing out 3 stars.
