    $19.99 for a small bowl of rice, appetizer sized chicken karaage, &a half filled bowl of miso soup + $3.00 to go box charge.
    Elaine P.

    I've been going here for years and today I left feeling annoyed and disappointed. I think charging a 4 year old $19.99 AYCE fee is ridiculous AND charging $3.00 for a to go box to pack the barely eaten small bowl of rice and chicken karaage by said 4 years old. I have never been charged for a to go box at any AYCE restaurant. I could have left after being told the fee for my 4 year old but we were hungry. So, unless your 4 year old can eat rounds of sushi plates - this is not the place to bring them. Sushi is always good. Service is okay - you may have to flag down a few different servers to get noticed. That is all.

    Sake 2 Me Sushi in Cerritos is one of the very few AYCE sushi restaurants that I'll entertain. The wait time is atrocious and they're even more strict about having your entire party present to be seated, but the food is delicious. They have a touch screen tablet available for you to place your orders at your table and there's a timed dining limit. I usually don't have that issue when I go with just my sister or a small group, but I can see it being a challenge for larger parties, so I recommend thinking about your game plan accordingly. Their riceless are yummy and their butter pepper salmon + shrimp nigiri are my favorite. I can easily put away a few plates of those on my own, especially because they use minimal rice for nigiri here. I also love their tuna crunchy rice, but I don't know if they serve that dish anymore, unfortunately. Their appetizers like takoyaki, miso soup, shisito peppers, and spicy garlic edamame are also the bee's knees!

    I was recommended this place by my friend whose favorite AYCE sushi spot is Sake 2 Me. Came here for a Sunday lunch around 12. We had joined the waitlist prior to arriving, which I highly recommend since the wait was about 30 - 45 minutes at that time. You can join the waitlist directly from the Yelp app (but you have to be within 2 miles of the restaurant). Parking is plenty in this plaza, but it could get busy during peak hours as it shares the space with other popular restaurants in the area. Upon being seated the server, let us know to use the tablet located on the table to order our sushi. The one caveat is that there's a 10 minute time-out in between each round of ordering and there's also a fee for any leftover food you don't eat. So, I would recommend ordering strategically! Once we ordered our first round, it wasn't long until the food came out. I would say that the food came out pretty quickly, even though it was a pretty busy lunch rush, which I appreciated. They have some limited specials on the menu, which I would recommend ordering. The quality of the limited specials is better than what you can get on the unlimited menu. This would include fatty tuna, giant, raw scallops, and amaebi to name a few. Their carpaccios are also really good. Overall, this is a very solid all you can eat sushi spot and I would definitely come back. However, I wouldn't say this is the best value for your money. I think the quality of the fish (the tuna for example) and portion sizes could be improved.

    Came here for AYCE sushi on a Saturday afternoon and luckily didn't have to wait too long. If there is a long wait though, you can join the waitlist online ahead of time. I like that this place has an ipad to order bc I feel like it's quicker and easier to order multiple smaller rounds instead of feeling pressured to order 3 large rounds. Most of the items were unlimited but the carpaccio and a couple other items were a max of 2 orders per person if I remember correctly Overall I thought the quality was pretty good. The seared giant scallops were probably my favorite so I wish those were unlimited. Good experience overall and I would come back

    There are a good amount of ayce sushi spots in the area, but my husband and I keep going back to Sake 2 Me. The quality of their sushi is amazing. They have a good fish/rice ratio, unlike other spots where they would either have too much rice with the size of their fish. All the rolls are great. We especially love their albacore! The food comes out fairly quickly and ordering from the screens on the tables makes it so much easier. Great service and great food! Wait times can be crazy during rush hour though! I'd recommend getting there right before they open so you don't have to wait so long!

    This place has incredibly fresh sushi especially for AYCE! The service today was quite amazing they were very in top of things including any additional sauces we needed. They have such a great music selection here if you are a fan of 90's and early 2000's music. We ordered so many different things it's hard to remember which roll is which... but assuming we got it right some stand out were definitely these rolls. Seared salmon ceviche Sake2 me roll Roly poly Roly poly 2 Samurai Oishi Holiday They have a great selection of NO RICE ROLLS! Which are by favorite! Overall it's always a great time at Sake2Me Sushi!!!

    I really wanted to give this place a 5 stars but it just fell a little short. Presentation was amazing though. It was just the fish quality that we thought could've been better. We really appreciated how little rice came with the nigiri, but the rolls were heavy and they give you big portions of those. I would definitely recommend not ordering that many rolls to optimize on sushi intake. Now for the appetizers, we got the fried calamari first and it had no flavor and no sauce to pair it with. Definitely a miss for us. We saw other people ordering another type of squid which was the BBQ one and that one was a lot better! The service was good overall. If there were questions that needed to be answered, the employees are knowledgeable. The ordering system is on the tablet, so you don't need to wave someone down to order. We paid $40 per person on a weekend. I would come back again on the weekday lunch because it's a lot cheaper. Compared to other AYCE sushi options, I would give this place a 4/5. Still a good experience though and satisfied my cravings.

    This is a really good ayce sushi place. The assortment of sushi is very good and the quality of the sushi is also very good, particularly for an ayce place. They have an ordering system at each table that makes ordering easy and you don't have to wait for a server. But a few things you need to know: 1) there's a "cool off" period after you put in an order so don't prematurely hit the "order" button because you won't be able to put in another one for a while. 2) each order is 1 piece of sushi, not 2 as most places are. So count each piece you want. 3) most of the pieces of sushi are smaller than most places so order a little more. I actually like the smaller size -- it's much easier to pop the whole thing in your mouth and the proportion of fish to rice is very good. Also, the udon is quite good for a sushi place. I highly recommend.

    We've been coming here for years, for company lunches, date nights, and whenever family or friends visit. It's always our first choice for AYCE sushi. The sushi is always fresh, and each piece has just the right amount of rice. We also love their appetizers, grilled dishes, and fried items. My boyfriend's favorite is the grilled squid, which is perfectly cooked every time. The service is fast and friendly, and the cozy atmosphere makes every visit enjoyable. Although there's often a wait, joining the waitlist ahead of time makes it easy. We've never been disappointed and highly recommend this place to any sushi lovers like us!

    I've been here multiple times and the seared peppered salmon is still the undisputed champion of the menu for me. No notes. Absolute supremacy. The only downside is that food can take a while to come out when they're busy--I've definitely waited 20+ minutes for some orders before. That said, the quality has always been consistent enough that I keep coming back. If you've never tried the seared peppered salmon, start there.

    Baked Scallop Roll
    Katie D.

    The sushi and fish quality were mediocre in my opinion, but it's still worth the price for AYCE, especially with the extensive menu. The rolls were huge, but many of them tasted similar rather than having their own distinct flavors. I still enjoyed the food. That may have been user error though but I feel all rolls should have distinction. I opted out of the AYCE sashimi because it costs extra. Great hospitality from Tyus and Ember (or Amber)! They were proactive and I never had to ask for anything. They thoroughly explained the ordering process, regularly refilled our waters, and brought us extra napkins after noticing we were running low before we had a chance to ask. We arrived at 4PM on a Monday and were seated immediately. Dinner was $39 per person and AYCE sashimi is available for an additional charge. The tablet ordering system was efficient (and saves paper) and our food came out quickly. The dining time limit is 90 minutes. After placing an order, there's a 10 minute wait before you can order from that same section again. The place is cozy with comfortable booth seats, several table options, and dimly lit lights. The business is located in a plaza with other popular dining restaurants and plenty of parking. Tip: They charge for leftover rolls. If you're struggling to finish, remove some of the rice and eat the fish and fillings instead. That can help reduce food waste and avoid an extra charge.

    We ate SOOO MUCH LOL. This is one of the few AYCE sushi spots where we happily ordered more and more and more like the good ole days where being a bottomless pit with no weight gain was a thing. The quality of their food here is above decent. We had tons of salmon, tuna, and baked green mussels. It gets busy though so try to come during the off times, otherwise you'll find yourself waiting a while. There's a time limit as well so treat it like an eating competition. Ambiance is a little on the noisy end but that's nothing to complain about. I'd totally come here several times a month if I could

    I went to Sake 2 Me with a friend for all you can eat sushi. They have a 90 minute sitting time that starts before you order anything. They have a large selection of sushi rolls, appetizers and items included in the all you can eat price of $49 per person and then some options you can add on for an added price. Once you order they put a 7 minute freeze on ordering more so make sure you order more than 1 thing at a time. I was a little disappointed because I felt like all of the rolls had the same ingredients. There wasn't a big variety between rolls. The tempura in our rolls was soggy, not freshly fried and crispy. The edamame was overly steamed, falling apart as we ate it. There was also no ice cream or dessert options included in all you can eat. This was an average experience, tastes good but not excellent. Go to sake 2 me if you're hungry and looking to eat a ton but if you prefer high quality sushi I'd look elsewhere.

We came in around opening time on Saturday and we were the first customers! The place is very spacious and seems to be clean! Service was prompt! Fish was relatively fresh for all you can eat quality (lets not expect omakase quality here, okay?!) and the rice to fish ratio wasn't bad! I will say I do feel like the ratio isn't bad because the fish itself is sliced pretty thinly compared to other AYCE sushi spots. They have a good variety of appetizers as well, and of course the salmon and yellowtail collars are available at an additional charge - this seems to be the norm at most AYCE sushi places these days. My two only minor complaints is that in the photos, what I saw for seared salmon nigiri was not what we got. Perhaps it's a different style of sear but I was really craving the typical peppered sear...if I had known we were not getting that, I would have chosen a different spot. The no rice rolls were on the bigger side, so by the time I finished those, I was pretty much too full to order a second round. I really appreciate AYCE sushi places that also make the rolls smaller so you can try more things, but I understand that may be a business tactic to get you to eat less... For dessert, they give you a good scoop of ice cream! Green tea ice cream for me~ Overall, it's a solid spot! If I don't want to wait for the other popular ayce sushi spots in the area, I'd come here.

The restaurant itself is bright, clean, welcoming, and very kid-friendly, which makes it an easy choice for our family. But, of course, the real reason we keep coming back is the food. The quality is excellent, particularly when it comes to freshness and flavor. We never visit without ordering the fried tofu and fried fish appetizers--they've become a tradition for us. We usually order one of their sushi boats and then add extra rolls and nigiri. After having their sashimi many times, I can confidently say the fish is consistently fresh and high quality. The portions are also generous, so we always leave feeling completely satisfied. What really completes the experience is the consistently wonderful service. Everyone is friendly, attentive, and welcoming, and we've always felt well taken care of.
