I usually order takeout, and every single time my food is ready on time, still hot, and exactly what I ordered--no mistakes, which is honestly rare these days. The service is always friendly and efficient, even when they're busy. It's clear they take pride in what they do, and it shows in both the quality of the food and the reliability of the orders. read more

We waited for so long to get our entire dinner. We come here every few weeks and after this, we won't be back. About half the dinner came out, then the appetizers, then the other half of the dinner and finally the sushi. After finishing our dinner , we couldn't find anyone to give us a check for about fifteen minutes. The food is not terrible, but make sure you have time on a Thursday night. The servers are always nice. read more

I didn't know what to expect when I walked in but overall it gave mid level classy vibes with comfortable booths and orderly tables. There was even a projected aquarium, which added to the vibe. Their menu is unique in its offering and delicious in taste. I got the Spicy Tuna Gyoza, which is not something I've ever had before. They were just crispy and delicate. However, I wouldn't necessarily call them spicy but the flavor was there. The sunset blvd roll brought a fresh lightness to sushi I've not seen and was also a good texture and well seasoned. I didn't order dessert but their offerings were equally unique. They are also super great with allergies, which is hard to find these days. Service was super friendly and helpful throughout the entire meal. read more

We found this little gem during our weekend drive. We were greeted and immediately seated. We ordered the short rib with Korean BBQ sauce and it was so delicious. I got some maki rolls that were fresh and flavorful. My husband got the Hibachi combo which I tried and it was really good. Who says you need all the theatrics for some good hibachi. My only complaint is that for the price, they should include the salad and the noodles like other places do. The place was clean and decorated simple. They were still playing Christmas music, lol. But we enjoyed this place and recommend it. read more

Sayori is an absolute standout,. The interior immediately sets the tone: modern, sleek, and elevated. The projection wall creates the illusion that you're dining underwater, which makes the experience feel immersive and unique without being overwhelming. We tried a great variety of dishes, and everything was excellent. The sashimi was incredibly fresh. Each piece was beautifully presented and high quality. The chicken dish was flavorful, and the short ribs were tender and rich, paired with some of the best mashed potatoes I've had. Soup dumplings are always a must for me, and these did not disappoint. For dessert, we ended with the fried Oreos served with ice cream, which was the perfect finale. They also offer a full bar with a great cocktail selection. read more

Nice restaurant for lunch! We were at the Cinemark to watch a movie and chose Sayori to satisfy our sushi cravings. We ordered the 3-roll special for $15, the Chicken Lettuce Wraps, and a Dragon Roll. Everything was good, though there was a bit too much banana in my signature roll--it wasn't quite what I was expecting. However, the ambiance and service were on-point. This is definitely a go-to spot for sushi in the area! read more

Sayori - Chicken Lettuce Wrap, Dragon Roll - Japanese Near Me - Orange, Connecticut

We visited CT from Long Island, where we have many good and creative sushi restaurants. Our experience in CT had been just okay until we found this absolute gem in Orange. The food rivals the top places in NY, the decor is attractive and the service is top notch. If you're in the area and you don't want to deal with parking and congestion in New Haven, absolutely try this place. I can't remember every roll we had, but the Paradise, the Pink Lady and the rolls with lobster meat were fantastic. The sushi tacos, which were a special, were fresh and delicious and packed with fish. read more

I was trying to find a more local "go to" sushi place since I drive 30 mins for my fav now. I ordered a sushi lunch special with 3 rolls with a salad. I was disappointed to find they gave me a miso soup (don't like that at all) but I was already home by then. They staple your bag so closed you don't really get to check in it when you're paying. I need to get better at doing that. I also felt the rolls sort of fell apart as I ate them. I'd go here if I was in a pinch, however my search for better sushi and service continues. read more

After being reminded by Yelp of 686 views of my last review on Sayori, we decided to have lunch there today. There were some lovely updates to the ambience. The walls were adorned with exquisite flower bouquets and lanterns. The lunch menu is extensive and there is a wide range of various types of fish chilling in the cases.The staff was friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is very clean and well organized. There is also plenty of parking right in the front of the building. read more

Enjoyable take out experience from Sayori. Decided to check it out after our normal sushi restaurant is closed on Sundays.

This spot is a standout on the Boston Post Road! Totally a hidden gem in plain sight. The vibe is so cool with projections covering the walls and fun light up coasters. All of the seafood was so fresh, and they had some really creative options, like the wagyu ishiyaki prepared tableside and a filet mignon special with wasabi truffle butter. Everything was delicious, and the service was great. We would absolutely come back! read more

I really enjoyed the sushi and sashimi lunch special for a reasonable price . You get a side of soup or salad optional pickings from their menu . Sushi is a beautifully made dish I love the brightness of it all , makes meal feel as if I'm putting a perfectly balanced dish in my stomach . We like how attentive Rachel is :-) she's the best ! This place has always been wonderful and welcoming, and very clean. I try to visit at least three times a month. Okay I can't get enough of the tastes of sushi in my mouth. The spicy crunchy salmon is our fave also the sweetness of the yellowtail is irresistible. read more

Blew away every expectation I had. Every dish we tried became our new favorite. I couldn't tell you a bad thing about this place! The ambiance is gorgeous and the service was quick and polite! She asked us about our favorite dishes and if there was anything we didn't like. We weren't rushed even though we were there til close. Already made plans to go back on Friday it was that good. If I had to choose a favorite I would say the sea and truffle scallops were both stand out dishes. read more

Sayori really impressed us initially when they first opened - amazing fish & delicious sushi rolls in a trendy, classy space with a cool moving ocean mural in the main dining area. The place is very spacious and versatile, as it is great for groups and families, solo eats at the bar, and is intimate and romantic enough for a couples night out. They have fatty tuna & filet mignon rolls which set them apart from other options in the area as more upscale (matches the classy vibe!), so not surprisingly the average price is also higher than competing sushi restaurants in the area. The restaurant's layout was initially disorienting on our first visit. Upon entering, there wasn't a designated host stand or anyone to greet us. It wasn't immediately clear whether to head straight towards the bar area or turn right into the dining room. Due to the way the space is sectioned off, it felt a bit like a game of peek-a-boo when one of the staff members was trying to approach and guide us. Despite the upscale atmosphere, some of the staff members, might have possibly been the managers or owners, were dressed pretty casually, which seemed out of place. Similarly, the service, while perfectly acceptable, lacked the polish you would expect from a higher-end establishment. So there was a bit of a mixed messaging that makes me unsure if they're trying to aim for upscale or more casual. Like I alluded to earlier, we were initially blown away by the quality of the sushi on our initial visit. Their house special rolls and sushi appetizers were bursting with flavor and creativity. In comparison, even classic favorites like the salmon avocado roll seemed a bit bland. After that first experience, I was so impressed that I was ready to declare it the best sushi restaurant in Connecticut. The quality unfortunately wasn't consistent across our visits. The fatty tuna, which was a star during our first experience, was not as stellar on later visits. It lacked the vibrant color and melt-in-your-mouth texture that had initially impressed us so much. This inconsistency made us feel like the overall quality can vary depending on the day. While it's been admittedly a few months since our last visit, I sincerely hope they've addressed some of the kinks we encountered. Their menu's creativity and focus on higher-end ingredients are exciting, and I wish them continued success in refining their execution! I would love to return for another try in the near future and experience the full potential of what they have to offer. By the way, it's time to retire that grand opening sign out front! read more

Genuinely the best sushi I've had in the state of Connecticut. Do yourself a favor and get the king roll. Don't even remember or care what's on it. Warm, soft, unbelievable flavor. The staff is very nice and attentive as well. The ambiance is nice, updated and modern. Prices are standard. If you're a sushi lover, give Sayori a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

Warm welcome upon entering, waitress was extremely pleasant, food was timely, great ambience, I would go again!

Been here 4 times now, each time is excellent, seated almost immediately, food comes out hot and quick! Excellent relaxing ambiance and nice and quiet on week nights!

Wow. Wow. Wow. It was hard for me to give this place 4 stars. This business is about 4 months old now and I found it by searching on Yelp for sushi. I went by myself on a Sunday evening and sat at the bar. The place is nice and clean. It's the kind of place where you can be very casual or dress in your nicest casual wear. Fine for groups and if you'd like to have a meal on your own. If you sit at the bar you can watch your sushi made in front of you. My drink of choice was a coconut mojito. It was refreshing and did the job! The next time I visit I'll get the scorpion bowl (which you can order for 1 or 2 people). The menu has a good range of choices. I started with the sea scallops as my appetizer. They were fresh and made to perfection ( not overly tough or chewy). I honestly had a hard time choosing the roll I wanted but that doesn't mean the menu is too overwhelming! I settled on the paradise roll which is a perfect choice for someone that may not eat raw fish (even though I do). If you like plantains you'd like this roll. There are options for people who eat meat, seafood, veggie, etc. I ended my meal with the green tea crème brûlée, which was great! It came with whipped cream topped with strawberries and blueberries. This dessert wasn't too sweet but the perfect addition to my 3 course meal. The waitress was attentive enough to my needs but not overly attentive, if you know what I mean. Overall, I really enjoyed this place and will definitely be back. Everything was prepared so well! read more

Great place for large groups! Stopped by this after seeing their grand opening sign. Seated immediately. My friend and I got the sushi and sashimi for 2 ($63)! relatively cheap for the amount and quality it was. It came with 10 pieces of premium sushi, 18 pcs of premium sushi, and 1 signature roll. Fish was okay! The ginger was not the best, definitely not fresh. Service was poor. It was difficult trying to get the waitress' attention even though it was not busy. read more

Food is delicious, very nice ambiance my new go to spot. Never disappoints. Sushi is fresh and hibachi is delicious.

THIS is what 5 star ratings are meant for. Restaurant atmosphere: sophisticated and modern, with lush color and huge artistic projections, the interior of Sayori Sushi is modern minimalist meets color fusion. *see pics The food: decadence. Rich and flavorful. I tried the duck breast. Juicy and rich with crisp skin, and delicate moist meat. I also had the Braised rib.. buttery soft rib meat in a teriyaki style sauce, on a light puff of decadent (potato) All in all, one of the FINEST sushi (and more) resturants I've been to. 5 stars easily. read more

So it's been almost two months since I got SEVERE food poisoning from here, enough to require 4 days of hospitalization and prescription painkillers and antibiotics. In that time not once has anyone from this business reached out to me to apologize, offer any sort of a refund, or assure me that the issue has been looked into by kitchen management. My advice is to stay away, there are many more excellent Asian restaurants in the area, whose owners and management give a flying shit about their customers. read more

Do not come here. They poisoned me and my family. Be careful. The food tastes good but is toxic. They should be shut down.
