I got the noodles with steak. Very good. Pull up in drive thru. Quick Inside is dated. Not a good Place for date night. Service is fast and consistent. Highly recommend when craving asian food. Not expensive read more

I went to SAKE in Mount Holly, NC yesterday @ 5pm... I paid with PayPal. This morning it finally showed up on my account @ 6:19am. This establishment had charged my card more than what my receipt said. I am disabled and need every penny so how is it OK that a business takes advantage of people. Needless to say I will never be eating here again!! ITS NOT COOL TO STEAL SAKE & U SHOULD KNOW BETTER! read more

Trued going here for lunch and couldn't place an order. I waited at the drive thru window for 5-10 minutes with out anyone acknowledging me. I seen multiple workers inside and no one even opened the window read more

The people are so nice. The food is hot and good. Would definitely recommend. Parking lot is always hopping. Habachi chicken, Habachi teriyaki. read more

Our waitress Maggie was kind and helpful. The food was delicious and service quick. We were offered refills and a box for our leftovers before we had to ask for them. read more

Food is always top notch and service is super fast! Highly recommend eating here! They have quickly become our go-to!

Amazing food! Amazing employees everyone is so friendly had a 10/10 service was always being checked on during my dine in prices not bad at all! Really recommend this place! read more

Food is awesome and the staff is super friendly. Hate that they are closed so early and on Mondays now. Cons- I hate the drive thru set up but def worth the wait at times. read more

I had steak and teriyaki with rice as well as noodles. It was good and its fast food drive-through. I will be back! read more

Food was good. Improvement would be to offer fried cabbage instead of rice for those who prefer less starch. Overall good is worth it.

I really wanted to give this more stars because the service was decent and the food was ready very quickly. Unfortunately, the food was not good. The chicken tasted like it was rapidly thawed and it was very dry. The rice had a few peas and I found a kernel of corn but other than that it was just white rice. The restaurant itself is dingy so I don't think I would want to eat inside. I did really appreciate the amount of shrimp sauce they gave me. It did not taste like traditional yum yum sauce but was in a large cup which made up for the lack of flavor. All together it's the only hibachi spot in the area so it will do. read more

Sake Express - Hibachi chicken with mushrooms, soy sauce on top because it was all one color before. - Japanese Near Me - Mount Holly, North Carolina

Seriously, check the orders before giving it to the Door Dash delivery driver. Too many times we've been missing items and had to improvise to make sure we had enough food for everyone. Something is missing almost every time. It's not that hard to check and make sure it's correct! read more

Food is awesome and consistent. Staff and management are friendly and accommodating. The building in Mt Holly could use some updating but that doesn't detract from the food quality. The Belmont location is newer and also very good but also a little more expensive than Mt Holly so I'm not complaining about saving some money by eating at an older place. Just your typical "don't let the building fool you" kind of place. read more

This restaurant flat out gets the job done. The inside could use some updates and work but the food is always really good. The zucchini and vegetables are fantastic. The noodles are really good as well. My favorite meal is the hibachi steak low carb plate. The white rice is another favorite of mine. And the shrimp sauce is really good too. My only complaint when it comes to the food is that the shrimp are not butterflied. If they would do that then I would order the shrimp every time. Long story short. We love this place. Eat here probably 3 times a month. I honestly like this Sake better than the Sake in Belmont which is newer. The food is better at the location in Mount Holly. Sake gets a 5 star review if they butterfly their shrimp and remodel the inside. read more

Want egg drop soap, crab rangoon, miso soup, great customer service? Well go somewhere else. None of these things exist here. What quick Asian food place doesn't offer those basic items on their menu? read more

I usually go to the location in Belmont however this one is half the time from my home so I tried it one night. I called in for my order before hand per usual and it was ready within 10 mins. They DO NOT have sushi so that was a little disappointing however their spring rolls are MUCH BETTER and BIGGER than any location I have visited. The BIGGEST disappointment however was how dry the chicken was. I'm had to drench it in shrimp sauce and mix it along with the rice to finish it! No bueno!! read more

Ordered the for the family and the food was great. The taste, temperature, portion, fast, friendly workers.

ZERO stars for customer service, 4 for food, 5 for speed. Dude wasn't even speaking. Just staring and a slight grunt now and then.

Ordered on door dash and when the food came they put it under low carb when the order was teppanyaki noodles. Only giving a two because I was very sad about this! Im sure they wouldn't drop off noodles just for me! Lol! read more

The restaurant is old okay?! But the food is amazing!!! A kids meal is more than enough food for me and only $5.33 total!! Super yummy food and really nice people. They also have newer locations in Gastonia, NC and Belmont, NC. I think they should open in more states! We eat at the Gastonia location at least 2xs a week! I eat at the Mt.Holly location because I work nearby! Keep up the good work! read more

Sake Express - Kids meal teriyaki chicken! - Japanese Near Me - Mount Holly, North Carolina

Good food at a reasonable price. It is a small quaint restaurant. I like it better than their fancy Belmont location. The food there has a different taste. They have a friendly staff and the food is worth the value. read more

Enjoyed the food at this spot and the prices. They need to train employees better to take orders via phone. I ordered food yesterday and the guy took my order then there was dead silence on the phone. I asked is there anything else you need from me. He seemed clueless and said " When do you want your food?" Dumb question. I said right now. He seemed dumbfounded. Then he asked " How far away are you?" I said pulling up. He said "ok" I laughed after hanging up because never have I been asked like that when I want my food. He should've given me the approximate time. He just needs more training. read more

Sake Express exceeded all of our expectations. The staff was so friendly and personable. The food came out quickly and it tasted amazing. The atmosphere of the restaurant is very lax and enjoyable. We will definitely be coming back very soon! read more

Best habachi around hands down....not like other locations. The food is consistently cooked great. Always tasty.

I grew up going to Sake Express in Gastonia, so I'm a little biased, but I always enjoy swinging through just to grab a quick bite. Nothing to knock your socks off, but always a reliable eat when you need a quick Japanese fix for cheap. read more

This is the best if Japanese food is what you're after!! The one on Charlotte Avenue is great if you're ordering to go but the one in Belmont, NC is the place to go if you want to eat in. They are also great for take out. My favorite is Hibachi chicken with mushrooms and carrots. read more

Sake Express is a fast and convenient way to get your Japanese fix. From the sushi to the noodles to the low carb dishes, you can't go wrong with any of the menu choices. read more

This place looks scary. When I first saw it I said there is no way I would ever eat there. I have no idea what's the sanitation rating is, nor do I want to know because the food is fantastic. Fresh ingredients and always hot. read more

Good Place. Great food. Would love to see the store get a face lift. Looks like they need to put some work into the place. It gets hot in the summer. Love the little joint. read more

The guy taking my order stared at me for 30 seconds without saying a word, no hello, no can I take your order. I finally told him what I wanted, he swiped my card and rudely told me to pull forward. When he brought my order out he stood and stared at me again for an uncomfortably long period (I'm assuming he was waiting for a tip), but because of his shitty customer service I just pulled away. I not only will never patronize this establishment again, I will not patronize any of the other Sake Expresses as they're owned by the same family. The food is very good, but I don't eat at places with rude employees. read more

If anyone gives this place less than a 5 star rating, they are dumb. They have some of the best Salmon I have ever had, the tilapia comes in at a close second. There is always the tried and true chicken and steak plates too. Everyone is always nice and service is great. read more

Ahhh sake express. Should I say no more? Or let's just be real about this, if your live in gaston county u learned that a cup of shrimp sauce, rice and sweet carrots is perfectly acceptable meal lol. Shrimp sauce, has absolutely nothing to do with shrimp but it's like crack cocain, once u take that first hit. Baby I hooked! I've been eating at the Gastonia location since I was 6-7yrs old n discovered shrimp sauce lol, 20 years later they are still the top restaurant in gaston county. Me living in Belmont my whole life n having Belmont location open, I was excited. I even decided to work at the Belmont location for a veryyyy short period of time. I'm better at eating then working lol. Mount holly location, it's smaller than the other two and I don't believe they serve sushi there, but that's my Dmv location, everytime I gotta go to the dmv I stop into this location for the hook up read more

Very good fast food type Japanese hibachi food. Their prices are good and you get a lot for your money. They have low carb options and great spring rolls. We like to order a side of fried zucchini with our food also. read more

For japanese fast food, I love it. I can run in, order, head out pretty quick. The staff is friendly. If you want to eat the place has always been really clean. I just wished they deliveried! :)) read more

What a little gem. It sure doesn't look like much, but man, the food. I got the jumbo shrimp and broccoli. My friend got the chicken and scallops. The jumbo shrimp was really jumbo. The scallops are sea scallops. Big and tender. The chicken was moist. All of it was cooked to perfection. This is just a little place with limited seating. Don't expect a date night location, but for being another hibachi food joint, the food is the top. I will be back any time I'm in the area. read more

Be sure to check your to-go orders before you drive away. We've had to go back the last 3 times because something has been wrong - cooked wrong, incorrect meat, missing item. The food is really good when it's correct. I prefer their Belmont location - much nicer atmosphere, no mistakes with orders and they have sushi too. read more

Love Sake Express. Great food, doesn't matter if it's take out or eat in. Love all the locations of Sake but Mt Holly is closest. Always great food. read more

My wife and I went there today. Will never go back because of rudeness by the guy that took my order. He just kind of looks at you when come the counter. What made us mad was when he laughed at us for asking for utensils. Then my wife asked for a knife. She was told they didn't have knives. They finally found one which the waitress threw on the table and left. We asked to see the manager but couldn't really get by the rude guy. Their grade rating was 93.5 by the way read more

Though the ones in Belmont and Gastonia are better, this location is still good. The health score was a 92.5 last I checked, which I'm not a fan of. I prefer the locations with sushi, this location does not have any. The Yakiniku is pretty good and the hibachi steak is amazing. read more

Amazing restaurant! Must try the sweet carrorts, nothing in this world beats their sweet goodness! Chicken and steak are both delicious, mushrooms and veggies are great! The only room for improvement would be to tweak the shrimp sauce- I feel it needs to be a bit thicker. Overall, great place to eat and service is great, too! read more
