If you're looking for authentic hibachi, this isn't the place. However, that doesn't mean this place wasn't good with reasonable prices. It was located in the middle of Georgia in Macon which is a town I've never been to but we were on a road trip and needed to stop and charge our car. The food itself was decent but the portions were very generous. The place was empty but the staff were really friendly. If you're looking for a quick hearty lunch or dinner, I would recommend this restaurant. read more

I still patronize this restaurant. Mainly, I opt for delivery. I have walked in to pick up my order. I wish I could re-decorate the seated areas. It's not a place to enjoy the environment while eating at the tables. It would take little to face lift the eating area. Just the same, I remain a happy carry out/deliver my food customer! Due to the inflated economy~expect to receive a bit less food achieved by using a smaller covered container. But the container is packed! I did request my veggies to be placed on the side. So they were placed in another container which was oversized for the small amount of veggies it contained. But face it! Even containers are an added expense. So, I can't kick too hard. Their employees need to be paid. So does rent & utilities. As my purse strings tighten, I'll have to mimic their menu at home. But if you have a reserve of dedicated for eating out~I say "Go For It!" read more

I ordered the chicken and rice bowl and the tempura vegetables to go. My total was $16 and some change. The cashier at the front was friendly. The tempura was delicious. The tempura sauce was slightly sweet and went well with the tempura. The tempura was crisp and I could tell the vegetables were fresh. They also gave 10 large pieces for $5.95 which is the best I've ever seen anywhere for the amount of tempura they gjve you. The chicken and rice bowl was a large quantity. Much larger than any plate you would get for similar anywhere else. I paid $8.95 for the plate. I could tell the rice and chicken were fresh prepared. However... the chicken and rice bowl had very little seasoning. It was freshly made but not very flavorful. So I suggest you bring your own seasoning. Unfortunately, after eating it my stomach started to bubble and I had a terrible case of the.. bubble gut. I was making frequent restroom trips. This is such a normal occurrence with me when I eat Asian food that I actually googled diarrhea and Asian food and per google diarrhea is a common occurrence when eating Asian food. Although not well understood why this happens the medical community notes the link between IBS and eating Chinese/Asian food. It's thought that some people may have a sensitivity to the MSG. Also certain common ingredients in the (chili peppers, etc.) Can cause it. I believe it's the msg.. I eat all of the other ingredients frequently and I never have terrible bouts of 'the runs'. I was running to the restroom all that next morning. Repeatedly. So I won't ever order the chicken and rice again. However I will order the tempura. Overall.. the service was wonderful and the food was mid. The portion sizes were large. But seasoning was off with the fried rice and chicken. read more

Quite dinning, order and sit, cozy. 90 on rotten tomatoes. I must of liked it before. I unatentionly returned. Now I know why!! Cheers! read more

We went on a road trip with friends to Florida and found this gem of a place on the way! Food was outstanding, service was great, they even gave us free spring rolls! We loved it so much we purposely drove back on our way back home to get more! If you love hibachi but don't necessarily need the show and the high prices, this is your place! read more

This is by far the best hibachi and sushi in our area. The food comes out fast and hot. The customer service is excellent as well.

The food was done on time. It was ready when I went to pick it up. The place looked clean inside. The tempura was doey and not fried well. The egg roll was burnt. The steak and chicken teriyaki looked delicious but lacked flavor. I will not be going back here and I do not recommend. read more

This is a pretty average sushi /hibachi place. I have had a lot of sushi and hibachi and this was simply ok. Even I think of hibachi I think of a solid delicious fried rice with vegetables and my protein choice if I choose. I ordered salmon hibachi, gyoza, and a spicy tuna roll. The fried rice that came with the hibachi tasted like white rice with soy and bits of eggs on it. Not a fried rice that's been properly prepared and everything mixed well. The salmon was fried but didn't have much flavor. It was a good piece of fish just didn't have seasoning. The vegetables were good. The yum yum sauce was unlike any yum yum sauce I've had. I personally did not like it. It wasn't like the sweet creamy sauce I'm used to when yum yum or white sauce is advertised. If this was my only option I'd eat it but definitely wouldn't be my first thought or even second choice. If you're looking for something that will do or is ok then yes. If you're looking for good hibachi I wouldn't say this is the place. read more

I don't usually do reviews and I barely use yelp but someone probably needs to hear this I just found a literal MAGGOT in my food.

Great sushi!! Great daily specials!!! Good atmosphere Great service Reasonable prices read more

Good food, good service. Nice and clean. Good hang out spot of the young teens. Fast service.

Sat in an empty restaurant at noon with to workers standing behind the counter... was never acknowledged or waited on by anyone... waited 10 minutes... got up and left.... I understand why it was empty at lunch time now... don't really care how good your food might be if your service is this horrible read more

Not the worst but DEFINITELY no where near the best. Chicken was dry. Kinda freezer burnt, had that deep freeze taste to it. Goyza was gross. Straight up dripping in oil. Really disappointed. I mean, I guess you get what you get in a "fast food/express" style place. No one seemed happy to be there. Save your money and eat somewhere else. read more

This place and its twin, Osaka, are the best Japanese food restaurants in Macon. Best price, fast service, and the portions are huge. I recommend this place to all my friends that come to visit. read more

Hibachi is always a good idea. I love that Sake makes hibachi easy to get - you don't have to sit at a hibachi table and watch an entire show before getting to eat your hibachi food. Don't get me wrong, the hibachi table experience is a must at least once, but once you're had that you just want to skip all the hoorah and go straight to the food. Sake actually forces you to skip the hoorah. There are no hibachi tables. I'd actually say the setup is more so for takeout. There are regular tables inside though should you choose to dine-in. I was conflicted trying to decide whether I wanted to do the teriyaki chicken or the hibachi chicken. Ended up going with hibachi. The meal comes with fried rice and vegetables as well. I was surprised by the portion sizes - definitely enough to have leftovers. It also comes with yum yum sauce. The chicken was a little dry, but not too much so. It was well seasoned. The fried rice was delicious and the vegetables were too. I look forward to returning and trying out the teriyaki chicken. read more

Sake Hibachi & Sushi - Hibachi Chicken - Sushi Bars Near Me - Macon, Georgia

I hate leaving bad reviews and almost never do. I had a craving for sushi so I went into here. I got a rainbow roll and seaweed salad. It was inedible. The fish was old and tasted very wrong. The seaweed was squishy and also old. To be fair I didn't try any noodles or hibachi, maybe that's ok, but don't order sushi. I left my plate almost totally uneaten and was very relieved that I didn't get food poisoning. You know that feeling when you put food into your mouth and your body says "uh oh!" That happened twice before I gave up and walked away. Don't do it. read more

Great portion sizes for the price point. The yum yum sauce with the hibachi steak and shrimp was .

I really wanted to like this place. I love hibachi and the other places I get it from are at least 25 mins away from where I live (this place is much closer). I'll start with the pros...my order was hot and both plates had generous portions on them. The staff was nice enough so no issues there. The main issue is the food wasn't that great. I was hungry so I ate most of it (unlike my boyfriend who took a few bites and threw his away...he said the chicken had a wild taste to it). A big turn off is that the inside of the building looked dingy. Everything looked worn and on its last leg...so it looks like I will continue to take a drive to Sake Poke Hibachi or Hibachi Express in Milledgeville. Neither of those two places ever left me dissatisfied with a pit in my stomach like I'm feeling now from this restaurant. read more

A great place to get food in Macon, Georgia. We were recommended by the staff at the hotel to try the Japanese hibachi restaurant down the street. Googling it brought us to this place. It is located in a strip mall between a Big Lots store and Planet Fitness. We found out later that this is not the location that they wanted us to try but we were both very glad that we did. It has booths along both walls and tables lining the center part. There is no waiter or waitress. You order at the back of the store. The staff was very nice and ordering off the menu behind the counter was easy. They were not really busy when we ordered and, when the food was ready, they brought it out to us. The drinks are served yourself affair to the left of the counter where the chopsticks are available. I ordered the hibachi chicken. It came with a lot of rice, chicken, and vegetables. There was so much food that I saved it and ate a second meal from what remained after reheating it. It was delicious both times. I am glad that I tried it and recommend it to fellow travelers in the area looking for great food. read more

Had the tuna poke bowl today and it was fire! Quicker then fast food and taste 10 times better.

So good we ate two nights in a row! Friendly staff, fast service, fresh food. I haven't tried their sushi but the shrimp hibachi is delicious. Definitely try the handmade spring rolls (my favorite!) and fried veggie tempura (lightly breaded). There are nice tables for seating with counter walk up ordering. The perfect fast, delicious weekday dinner! read more

I ordered the sushi dinner and the food was okay. It didn't even come with soup or salad which was disappointing...

I used door dash, and I also I ate in with my infant, and toddler, both times my food was served fresh and still steaming! Staff is so nice, my order got mixed up with someone else's, but employee fixed it right away and gave me my left over change. At first I didn't notice as we sat down to eat due to me being so focused on one plate and tending to my babies, but it didn't dawn on me until I noticed we were missing our mochi ice cream LOL but overall the food is so yummy!! This place holds comfort food for me and makes me feel like I'm back at home in Hawaii when I eat it (: This is definitely my go to place, especially for sushi. read more

So today is my second time coming to the restaurant. First time I ordered takeout and this time I sat in. This is probably the freshest sushi I've had in Macon. Other establishments give me concerns with the proper food handing, but this one doesn't. My chicken wings were freshly cooked and were crispy and delicious. Sorry about not getting a picture of my roll, I was starving! I will be back again. Only improvement would be a more outgoing staff. They are focused on getting things out so an outgoing FOH person would set it off. read more

This place is awesome! We have been several times and the food is always fresh and delicious. We have even done take out and it never disappoints. You get so much food and it is amazing. I highly recommend coming. I always get the hibachi chicken and shrimp. The miso soup is so good too! My husband loves the sushi. read more

Rolls are fine, but I felt they were not very warm as a business and a bit rude. Service was fast. I'm used to a better variety. Crab is imitation, not real, yet they charge top dollar. Should be labeled Krab not crab. West coast sushi person here, sub par. read more

A hidden gem!! Great prices, service, and food! Tons of choices! Will definitely be returning. read more

This place is a great inexpensive hibachi spot.. so much food for the little price you pay.. I was actually highly impressed. We are ordering there again today. read more

Honestly, this place is fantastic. I'm a bit of an amateur sushi connoisseur, and I've been to every place in town and tried a nice variety of things. So here's what Sake has going for it. The food is so, so good. It's all super fresh--soups, rice, sushi, all of it. Now it's not the kind of fancy where you would take a prom date, but for a regular Tuesday where you just want great sushi, this place nails it every time. read more

The sushi's were fresh. They actually make the food on the demand. This place is a hidden gem if you are a sushi fan. Moreover, the hibachi comes with a lot of foods, and it's delicious. read more

The service is always quick and friendly and it tastes just like food you'd get at a sit down hibachi restaurant without the price.

usually so good but today i ordered 2 rolls a tuna roll and a crunchy roll... they gave me 2 wrong rolls and i'm allergic to crab so i couldn't eat it. read more

It's a shame how customer service can ruin an experience. One of the guys who looks like an owner or something was rude and probably should let someone that has basic people skills, and manners your elders typically teach you, run the front of house. read more

Very fresh and quickly prepared. Cashier came to check on our meal and make sure we were satisfied. Had the steak and shrimp hibachi and it was more than enough. Little one had the chicken and noodles and ate them up. We will be back. read more
