    Decided to give this place a try and it was okay. I have been to many, many sushi restaurants, and the flavor of the fish here wasn't that great. The cuts were generous, which makes me wonder a bit about the quality, especially given the flavor. The selection of rolls was huge, and they also offer many other Japanese dishes. The service was fast and friendly, and they turned over tables very quickly on a busy weekend evening. There are other places with better tasting fish in the area that I would choose over this spot.

    We like this place and went for lunch today. They have some good lunch combo options so you can have a good meal for $15. We opted for a pink lady roll and some fried rice. I didn't care the large amount of red onion in the rice. Found it odd an Asian place would use red vs yellow or white onion in fried rice. And don't like that they gave us only one menu for 2 people. When asked an additional was provided by why would you not give each person a menu.

    We adore Sawa Sushi! Our family has been coming here for years it's our favorite sushi restaurant in town. The food is so good with excellent service. The staff are very nice and always treat us so well. I also love the ambiance it's very calm and relaxing. Great place to have a nice meal or celebrate a special occasion. My favorite sushi roll would have to be the "Sex on the beach or Black dragon roll."

    The food was good, presentation was cute. Once again this does have raw fish so we felt that the quality of the ingredients was good, everything was fresh and the service was just as fast and friendly. We love a nice local spot for some good sushi. Even better if it's within walking distance! There are many options on the menu but we chose a sushi platter for two and we found that was the best value! Oh and there are also other menu options besides sushi ;) While it may look like a whole in the wall place, I promise you it's worth coming here.

    Came here for lunch on a Thursday with a co-work. We arrived shortly after they opened and were seated immediately. They offer some fun rolls as well as the traditional ones. Service & food was good- will be back.

    Yes! Sawa sushi is back open for dining! We had a lunch as beautiful as it was delicious! When we entered with our masks, we had a quick temperature check and were seated at a very acceptable distance from other diners. However, I was not too far away from a mom and son who were delighted with the food presentation and the taste of their food. I could hear them rave about everything, and they said they would bring their whole family back.....and they have a big family! I enjoyed watching someone else who was thrilled with dining here like I am! Let me tell you, once you visit a few times, they know you. If you order the same thing all the time, they will remember. So today, I fooled them. I wanted to convince my husband we could still get sushi in retirement. We ordered a lunch special where you choose 3 rolls (generously sized) and a salad and soup for $14. This is a great deal for lunch because we split it and had plenty of food. Ok, we might have added a few things for fun, but not because we were hungry. We had strawberry and mango mochi for dessert.....ahhhh, so refreshing on a summer day. You won't be sorry if you check this place o

    We stopped here for my friend's birthday dinner. First thing we noticed is the building was in some disrepair. It used to be a Pizza Hut and repurposing a very obvious building structure is akward at best. The red of the previous paint job is coming through all over the exterior. Parking lot is safe and well lit but also in some disrepair. The service was fast and efficient but cold and distant. No casual chat, banter or anything remotely close to friendly. The food came out fast and was a solid average for the genre. The spicy tuna sushi was first rate but the seafood ramen was average, as was the shrimp tempura. I'd order the sushi again but not the ramen or tempura. The building is clean inside but the employee sleeping in one of the booths near us felt odd. I'm not sure why but I didn't like it. It felt tacky. All in all, this restaurant was a solid average and I prefer to eat at locations that excel.

    Came in on a Sunday night with our little kids. We ordered seafood miso soup and miso eggplant as our appetizer . The miso soup was more flavorful than regular miso as the seafood added a great flavor. The eggplant had a very unique taste, but was delicious . We also ordered chicken fried rice, and 3 sushi rolls. The rolls were falling apart when picked up, but tasted fresh. The service was very slow, even though there was only 2-3 groups of people dining in.

    We went here because the reviews are great. We would not go back. The surface was OK. The ambience was OK. (still feels like Pizza Hut ) The food is just OK. We ordered a sushi plate as an appetizer. It came after we had gotten our meal. I ordered the seafood Ramen. The broth did not have a lot of flavor. My wife had the pork Ramen. Which was a little better. Service was all around slow. we had to ask someone else for a box in our check. And then we still had to wait quite a while.

    What vegan options are available?

    I had miso soup and salad, but I also saw sweet potato tempura sushi and other vegetable sushi. There are noodle dishes, but I didn't check if the noodles were vegan.

    Really enjoyed my dining experience here! The service was excellent, I'm sorry I forgot our…read moreserver's name but he did a great job of checking in on us frequently while not being overbearing. We tried the shishito peppers starter, hamachi and apple starter, the makizushico specialty roll, the spicy scallop roll and a salmon roll. Out of those I think my favorite was the spicy scallop roll, the scallop tasted fresh and delicious. Also loved the decor and ambiance inside which was Japanese minimalist but also warm and inviting. I will definitely come here again! I do recommend making reservations bc I have tried to come here without one and was turned away bc they were completely booked. However, on the night I dined here (a Saturday night) they did have quite a few empty and available tables.

    The other reviews that drove me here were right! What a great sushi spot!…read more The spicy edamame was different here vs other places, and I LOVE that when restaurants offer something else other than just plain salt -- people, we can do that at home! Use your creativity to come up with other ways to simply dress the edamame! See my pic on that to learn more. The assorted nigiri pieces came out prettier than most other sushi spots, they definitely brushed it to make it look pretty, and that's setting the bar higher where it should be! My roll was the Makizushico Special Roll and I was very pleased with it, however, it looks nothing like their picture online. I'd get it again next time.

    My husband and I stopped in for lunch. My husband had the build your own bowl and I did the lunch…read morespecial overall it was decent, but it was missing taste. I had the miso broth as my base and it just needed some seasoning or something the pork belly was on point and since my lunch special came with a choice of sushi I got four pieces and it was probably the stickiest rice I've ever had in a long time which is a good thing. The pieces of the roll did not fall apart. The location can be a little tricky to find as it's kind of hidden in the back of a smaller strip mall with other restaurants, smaller dining area so I can see on busy nights that being challenging when dining in.

    We ordered the cheese tan tan and the kimchi spicy miso. We got the udon for our 4 and 6 year old…read more On the positive side it was pretty good. I would rate it. Maybe four /four and a half. The cheese tan tan was good, probably just a bit too much on the cheese so I would stick with more of a classical ramen if I were to go back. The one thing that caught my eye that I wasn't a fan of was the pricing. I looked at a standard tonkatsu which is kind of my baseline when I'm looking at different ramens. If I wanted to add in all the vegetables that are normally standard and an egg it would go from the $17 base to almost $26 or $9 more when compared to a very comparable competitor nearby that has it priced at $17.50 for a tonkatsu with all the same base, vegetables, egg, etc. That was the reason for the option on our side to stick with the pre-selected specialties so we didn't have to jump through hoops pricing wise. Which takes me to service normally. I like to get three adult meals and split one of the adult size portion between my 4 and 6-year-old. Some places are very accommodating and will go out of their way to split it in the back kitchen so we aren't making a mess at the table. Others are kind of like, Yeah, we'll give you an extra bowl and you do you... Normally I'm not picky and I wouldn't care one way or the other, but since I was already irked by the pricing when I asked if they could do that for me in the kitchen they said " that wouldn't be very easy for the chef so I'll just bring you the bowls".. I'm glad we're doing what's easy for the chef and not for me the customer.

I plucked those nasty critters out, but now wondering if it is worth potentially getting sick by finishing what is left. The chicken is dry and has zero flavor and the pork has grey marbling. **Edit I chose to eat some of the rice anyway, but it was so terrible I took it back for a refund. The owner refuted the fact that the shrimp was bad, even after I had her smell it. She insisted that's how shrimp smells, so I dared her to take a bite. She refused. She did refund my money and I was going to leave it at that, but.... Here we are 18 hours later and I have food poisoning. Vomiting and bad diarrhea. That was the only thing I ate yesterday.

We found decent street parking and arrived around 12 noon, to a fairly packed house. My nephew picked the table near the window, which was the perfect spot. The light from outside poured into the large windows, providing a cozy yet bright vibe for lunch. The interior is large and long - allowing parties of all sizes to dine in. Our server, a nice younger man, approached us to get our drink and food order - we stuck with water and opted for hot honey garlic wontons and two medium bowls of piping hot chicken pho. The wontons arrived first - and were SO good. Perfectly fried, spicy, hot and garlicy! yum! The pho arrived shortly after, and both my nephew and I licked our lips - ready to dive in. The broth itself is good. Very tame but full of flavor. I loaded mine up with bean sprouts, jalapenos, siracha, onion and basil, while he kept it simple with just sprouts and a dash of hot sauce. The noodle to chicken ratio was perfect and tasted delicious! YUM!! The medium size is massive - and I wasn't able to finish all of my meal, but our server happily provided a to-go container for me to take the remainder home with me! Pricing is on point here and reflected in the quality of ingredients and portions - in that our meals and wontons was just over $50 with tip! I look forward to another visit!
