    $119.95 - Lunch 3 Adults & 1 kiddo
    Keshia K.

    The location of this establishment is where it is winning. It's convenient and it's located in the San Marco area. The hibachi is OK. The sushi is GOODIE. I could say great however ordering through the waiter did take time with the language barrier between some of the staff. Inside the establishment is literally just an Asian style eatery. Definitely need some updates especially for the area it is serving. However, the location is the best for what it does give quick food and it has an excellent lunch menu. I also ordered three rolls. The rainbow roll is my favorite so I'm gonna judge all my sushi based off the rainbow roll but the raw fish (nigiri) is cut perfect and properly. It wasn't too thick so it was filling to eat. I also chose a new role which I did enjoy it as cooked however it was not my norm.

    Service was pleasant, fish was clean and fresh, sushi tasty and drizzled with the perfect amount of eel and shrimp sauce

    Out of Control Roll, great deep-fried sushi roll with a lot of flavor

    The daughter and I checked this place out on New Year's Day for a late lunch. She had the Rock and Roll and added spicy Mayo and Out of Control Sushi Roll. Both rolls were very tasty and definitely fulfilled our sushi craving. This place is kind of tucked away at the base of a Highrise apartments near the Skyway.

    I am so happy I was in the area for this place. For starters, if you check in here, you get a free philly cheese krab. It was delicious!! The times square roll was my favorite of the 4 we ordered. Edamame is a classic starter & pallet cleanser. The service was great, so fast and the workers were all friendly. VERY reasonable prices for sushi. Nice and quiet in here with ample seating. I will be a returning customer again & again!

    I passed by this place a few weeks ago and added it to my list since I'm always on the search for the best sushi in town. I placed a pick up order around 530 on a Friday and it was ready in 10 minutes. It's in a bit of a strange location so parking was tight but there was spaces available. The restaurant itself is a bit oddly shaped. It definitely has a casual lunch vibe rather than a romantic date night vibe. Customer service was good. I ordered an avocado roll, sweet potato roll, and the veggie spring roll appetizer. I was a little shocked to see my total came out to almost $20. That's on the pricier side of sushi in the area. However, the food was delicious. Everything was made well, good temperature, and flavorful. It was also all well packed for pickup. While I don't think it was all worth $20, I was happy with the food.

    I've now had dinner here a handful of times - always before an event downtown. It's a quick trip over the bridge and I've always been able to walk right in. The rolls are always fresh and the service is good. The specialty rolls are worth the extra. This time was a Godzilla roll and an Angry Dragon roll, as well as a seaweed salad. Although it's a small parking lot, it's nice to have easy parking and walk just a couple of steps. We arrived at 6pm on a Friday night and were easily seated. Soonafter, I did notice all the tables were full. All in all, a good experience.

    Yummy local spot! I wish their menu online reflected their true prices, but you need to press "Order Online" on their website. Just good to know! I really liked their Samurai Roll ($16.95) and their Salmon Sushi ($3.25 per piece) was super soft and buttery. My boyfriend enjoyed his Shrimp Hibachi ($21.95) but said it wasn't anything special. It came with soup, salad, rice, and noodles. My only complaint is in their wasabi, which was EXTREMELY bright green, not like I've ever seen wasabi before. It had no taste to it either, obviously very unlike wasabi, real or fake. I'm sure I'll be back to Sake House 2, maybe as a quick fix for some sushi in my area!

    In lieu of visiting my favorite sushi spot in Jax, we took a visit to Sake House 2. Came for dinner with my coworker/friend and it was a great way to unwind for the evening and satisfy our sushi cravings. There's ample parking in the plaza it's located in and is in an area that is actually super cute to walk around after, in case you want to walk off din. The inside is pretty spacious and clean with service fast & friendly. I ordered the clear soup here and it wasn't the same as my favorite spot but was still pretty good. We got a few rolls and hibachi and it did not disappoint. A great spot if you're in the area and craving Japanese food.

    Craving sushi? Well this spot has some great options for you. Went here for the first time and we loved it. Had the seaweed salad as an app with a coconut lemongrass sake. And enjoyed three of their specialty rolls for our main course. I believe they were the spiderman, tokyo, diablo, and manhattan rolls. Couldnt remember the names, but they were definitely good choices. Good service and nice ambiance. Nice staff and price point was fair. Will be back again in the future. the coconut lemongrass sake was pretty bomb..,

    Our second time at this sushi restaurant. Both occasions were equally good. The staff is friendly and attentive. The sushi is delicious with a huge variety. For a Saturday night the restaurant was surprisingly empty. Had a great time and will come again.

    If I could give this place zero stars I would! The service was terrible. My boyfriend and I ordered two items, a Teppanyaki dish for him and I ordered a California roll. Four tables came in after us, and I watched them receive all of their food before we got any of ours. And they had ordered way more than we did! One was a party of 8. I finally had to get up and ask the waiter when our food would come out, and he told me that the Teppanyaki dish was ready already, but my roll was not. So we asked him to at least bring out the Teppanyaki dish so my boyfriend could start eating before the food got cold, and I could pick at his plate while I waited for my roll. Two additional tables were seated and served and I still hadn't got my roll, and a California roll is the easiest roll to make! My boyfriend finished his meal, so I told the waiter to take my roll off of our tab. The waiter was not apologetic at all. And when I went to the front to pay for the Teppanyaki dish, I tried to tell another staff member of the issue and poor service I received and he interrupted to tell me "I already took it off. You're not paying for the roll." The proceeds to tell me they had large parties come in and I told him they came in way after us. He didn't care. I highly DO NOT recommend and I will be posting a TikTok video of my poor experience here as well.

    I loved the artwork and ambiance inside- relaxed but chic. Went with a friend during lunch and it was packed. We we shared the Tokyo roll, she can, Katsu and Gyoza. It was delish, fresh and the sauces were on point.

    Pleasantly surprised that on this rare occasion, going to a restaurant that had less than 4 stars on here was actually an amazing decision! To start, the staff is super nice. Our order was executed flawlessly, i love that they cook the steak in butter and I requested no rice or noodles and they generously gave me more veggies. The filet and veggies were cooked perfectly and the portion was worth the money. $27 We also had some rolls, one of which was a specialty roll called Snow White. We requested no mayo, and I can honestly say it is one of the best rolls I have ever had, and that's saying something. I will absolutely be back, even if it's just for the Snow White roll, but I doubt I would be able to stop at just that.

What I loved is I was able to modify one of my rolls without so much spice and there was no hesitation. The snow crab is my favorite and I'll be getting that roll every time I come! It was a friend early birthday and they gave her a birthday tiramisu along with a whole performance at the table,dimmed the lights and even gave us trampolines to join in. This place absolutely blew me away.

The manager caught onto what was happening and did offer us a starter to compensate for that, which was nice. Unfortunately the service still felt lacking throughout. I saw my drink sit at the bar for quite a while while my husband sipped his beer. The server was super sweet, but not as attentive as I'd expect especially since it wasn't busy. The fish tasted fresh and mostly everything was really good. My favorites were the drama queen roll, the blood orange akami, and the truffle unagi roll. I wouldn't get the truffle enoki mushrooms again- the texture was off (chewy/stringy). The cocktail I got was the nori margarita and didn't feel it was anything special. The glass and straw it was served in was kind of throwing it off for me. I'd go a different drink route next time. I liked the vibe of the restaurant and felt like the ambience was great for date night. It had a sexy feel. I wish there was music or if there was I didn't notice it, because I could hear everything the table next to me was saying. They also brought a refreshing treat for my husband's birthday. We'd be open to coming back.

Prior reservations were made so we were quickly seated. The aesthetics of this place is so nice and the service is on the same level. The food came out quickly and I loved the portion sizes on everything. Everything we ordered was 10/10. The curry with the roti was a little spicy but still so flavorful. I ordered the veggie fried basil rice and spring rolls which were all amazing. My friend loved her ragoons and the sushi seemed to impress everyone who ordered.

We were bringing the whole family and hoping for a fun night, but unfortunately the experience didn't match the ratings. From the start, the tone felt off. When I called to make the reservation, the host immediately said, "We don't seat incomplete parties. We only wait 5 minutes or we give the table away." The policy itself is understandable, but the delivery came across harsh and unwelcoming. A more thoughtful approach like, "We kindly ask that your full party arrives within 5 minutes, otherwise we may need to seat other guests," would have felt very different. When we arrived early and asked if we could be seated sooner (with the rest of our party just minutes away), we were met with the same response again, which felt unnecessary given that there were several empty tables. Unfortunately, the service inside didn't improve. Our initial waiter was inattentive and at times dismissive. We had to ask for basic things like utensils and plates for shared appetizers, and the responses often came with an unwelcoming tone. At one point, when I asked for a plate and knife to share, the interaction became uncomfortable, and I ended up asking to speak with someone. The situation was handled poorly, and the waiter did not return. On the food side, I ordered the Massaman chicken curry at the lowest spice level, and it was still too spicy to enjoy. That said, most of my family did enjoy their meals, which I appreciated. Thankfully, a different waitress stepped in later and was kind and attentive--if the service had been like that from the beginning, the experience likely would have been very different. I also spoke with the manager, Jorge, who was receptive to the feedback and said he would address the issues, which I did appreciate. Overall, I was really disappointed given the strong reviews and the lively atmosphere happening around us. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I wouldn't return.

We started with the edamame, with the sea salt and truffle oil, which is always delicious. The service over the evening was very slow, and we spent a lot of time waiting on food. We sat in our favorite spot at the bar window so our server also appeared the be working behind the bar and was busy making drinks. We love sake and usually get a bottle of the Noble Arrow. We asked for a recommendation and the server recommended the Soul of the Sensei, which is $107 for the bottle. We were celebrating our 24th anniversary so we went for it. He said it was on the dry side, but we found it very unexpectedly sweet, almost like a moskato wine. It wasn't surprising when we read the back of the label and saw the flavor profile was all the way on the fruity side, with notes of Muscat grape. We definitely made a mistake by not tasting it first, so we ended up asking for a bag to take it home and ordered 2 glasses of the Noble Arrow. It was a disappointing start. Next we ordered the yellowtail carpaccio, which was very good, although the size of the fish pieces overall seemed smaller than usual. Everything we ordered over the evening was undeniably tasty, but small. We got the Usuzukuri salmon and when they brought it, they had the tuna carpaccio as well. The person who brought it said it was a gift. Later, we were charged $2 on the bill for the "gift." It's not much, but it's just that giving us a gift and then putting a charge on the bill for it was very strange. Overall, I still love the food at O-Ku, but this was not the best experience. We had gone there previously for our anniversary and they made it feel special. This time there wasn't any kind of recognition besides possibly the "gift" we had to pay extra for. And the service was so slow that we ended up drinking the bottle of sake we didn't like rather than waiting for another drink order. Every place will have its off nights, and this unfortunately seemed to be one of them. I would still recommend going there, because even though the portions are tiny and expensive, the taste is delicious.

When I first came in after the remodel I was skeptical, but day after day (hit after hit) Wasabi delivers. The food is AYCE and is made fresh to order. I'm a huge fan of nigiri so this is such a dea. Normally two pieces could easily be 5+ at another location. Don't like sushi? No worries! They have hibachi, tempur, soups, salad, dumplings. This is a great place to take people new to sushi who are discovering their preferences ( please consider the sweet potato sushi, it will be better than you anticipate). Please be warned, there is a price per sushi piece left behind. While I never seen the staff bring down the hammer, it is a clearly written rule. Also, if one person at the table orders AYCE then shares their food you will be charged for two AYCE (which makes sense). The interior is simple but the vibes are immaculate, super laid back and they often give small gifts during certain holidays. The AYCE is approx 16 dollars until 3, their dinner prices increase. Make sure to check their schedules times before heading over. (Try the salmon skin salad)
