Each was uniquely delicious and did not disappoint. Don't expect a fancy place - this is a perfectly fast-casual environment where you order at the counter and seat yourself.

They give who ever orders them a big glass of attention. The service was fantastic waiter was fun and attentive and over all made for a great time. He even gave us extra ginger (yaya).

I tried this place after a long day on the road and the first part kinda went ok, but the food made…read moreup for the first part of the service, we arrived at 2100(9:00 PM) so I am sure the staff had been there all day and was slightly tired. However I took the staff 15 minutes before they took our order, they were in the corner just talking and laughing. Being apart of the food industry for a few years, you never keep a customer waiting no more than a few minutes. We order a few menu options, the Tiger roll, the eel roll, shrimp tempura and spider rolls. The food was on point and done very well considering the time of night it was, I was very happy to see the effort put in during the end of the night. The restaurant looks and feels like a Japanese sushi restaurant with the symbols and the straw hut appearance on the inside, some also had wooden benches against the wall, and a sushi bar in front where you can watch them prepare it in front of you. I have had better experiences in other sushi restaurants, but this was a great recovery by the staff and the experience went well!

Honestly one of the worst dining experiences I've had. The food was terrible, out of a group of 12,…read moreonly two people actually enjoyed their meals. We ordered potstickers, California rolls, and tempura (not sure what everyone else had), but across the board, no one liked their food. Everything either tasted off or was overcooked. The service didn't help much either. Our server was slow and didn't seem very happy to be there. Her belly was literally hanging out of her shirt! The uniforms were so odd, wouldn't expect spandex outfits for those menu prices. . Parking was another headache. We drove in circles for about 10 minutes trying to find a spot.

The sushi chefs especially are really dedicated to their craft, and I've had sushi from Cali but this taste better imo because I know it was made with care. They make any accommodations you need and really care about their regulars and new customers alike! Being a regular here is such a worthwhile experience, Sake was definitely like a second home! Thank you Sake for 5 great years and many many many delicious jelly fish drinks

My husband ordered Kamase Salmon Sushi and I had the Bento Box with Chicken. My hubby said he had not had such delicious sushi in years! (He can be so picky!) My chicken was delicious with a tasty sauce and lots of extras. The spring rolls were very good and the California Sushi Rolls were excellent. And do not miss the Crab Rangoon. So delicious! I could eat those crunchy -creamy little treasures all day. Did I mention the servings were quite generous? Bring your appetite. We'll be back soon, and look forward to discovering new favorite dishes there. Thank you Tiger Ninja for making this such a pleasant outing!
