    Shrimp Shrimp yaki udon and spicy combo
    Sarah L.

    I got the shrimp yaki udon which was good! A bit overpriced in my opinion. I would recommend this place but my friend got food poisoning from the spicy combo. I tried some of hers and felt fine so take that as you will!

    Teriyaki Chicken and Shrimp

    Don't let the outside of this place fool you. This restaurant is in a house that looks run down on the outside, but it is super cool and clean on the inside. The teriyaki chicken and shrimp had a good flavor without being too sweet. The chicken was a little too tough but the shrimp were cooked right, along with the veggies.

    Stopped in on a Saturday night for a late dinner before a comedy show. This restaurant is in a converted house and has a nice atmosphere. I found street parking right out front. The sushi is 5 stars: excellent quality. And extremely reasonably priced. The service was 3 stars. Not particularly friendly (didn't check on me once after I ordered, didn't offer water, etc) Another server noticed I hadn't been checked on and took over/was much more attentive but also had other tables. Maybe I caught my server on a bad night, it happens. I'd still go back, the sushi was excellent, I'd just maybe do carry-out next time.

    If I could rate this a 4.5 I would. It was very good. I may have finally found my go-to sushi place in town. I tried some nearer to our house but for a variety of reasons they just did not do it for me. After checking reviews we decided to try this place on a weeknight. We got there relatively early and we were glad we did because all of the booths quickly filled up by 6pm. The decor was light and modern. Our order was taken quickly and the food came out fast. I got a beer and three cooked sushi rolls. The spicy California roll was good but not really spicy, a smoked salmon roll was also good but the cream cheese was almost too much, and the tempura shrimp roll was excellent. My wife got the vegetable bento box and really liked it a lot. One of the big plusses was that the prices were very reasonable - a rarity these days. We will return.

    Lunch special - shrimp tempura, spicy salmon, California roll
    Sho R.

    I had lunch from here on a weekday. The place was not busy. I went for the lunch special with 3 sushi rolls. It came with miso soup. Spicy salmon was my favorite sushi followed by shrimp tempura. California roll was ok. I noticed others ordering all sushi starting with the word "spicy". I think that is the right strategy. All their spicy shushis should be the best ones. I wish I knew this before.

    Food - authentic, well made, lots of flavor. Raw sushi rolls have fresh fish, clean. Cooked sushi rolls also excellent. Here is everything we had and couldn't recommend more: - shrimp yakisoba - queen roll - miso soup - black pearl roll (too much mayo for my taste) - gordon ocean roll - alaskan roll (best I've had w/the most avocado) - eel roll - salmon fried rice (salmon cooked perfectly) - dessert: fried cheesecake - very good! Ambiance: Very homey and cozy. I was a bit shocked when we came upon the restaurant because it looks like a house. They get a lot of business so expect to wait if you don't have a reservation. Seats could be more comfortable. Booth seats pretty shallow. Bathrooms were clean. Service: Understaffed it seemed but they tried the best they could. Very kind and thoughtful.

    Sweet Potato Tempura Roll, Vegetable Rainbow Roll, Asparagus Tempura Roll

    Hands down best sushi in Madison! This restaurant is super cute and located in an old house on Willy street. Tons of seating indoor and outdoors and it's always spotless. Street parking is fairly easy to find in the area as well. Their vegetarian sushi is seriously my favorite and is always so so delicious. Staff are super sweet and attentive and I'm just constantly dreaming about eating at this place again

    Lunch special - rainbow roll and tuna/salmon sushi
    Mary K.

    Cute little restaurant. Went on a Thursday for lunch early afternoon. Seated in the bar area. Had their lunch special - California roll with two pieces each of tuna and salmon sushi. I also ordered their gyoza which was fried not pan fried. Arrived hot and had a good flavor. The roll and sushi were very good. Service was fast and efficient.

    Tsunami Roll, tuna avocado, tuna roll

    Went here after a recommendation on a Madison food group based on the quality of the fish, and it didn't disappoint. Excellent rolls especially for the price. The staff is also very friendly! It's been empty every time we go to get carry out, which I don't understand because it's very good and cute. Highly recommend!

    Steak and chicken hibachi. Also came with a side of rice
    Jenica E.

    We were able to reserve a table of 8 to have dinner with the family. Cute little place that we stumbled upon. Ordered the love boat for all of us to share. My husband and I got the full moon roll, chicken & beef habachi, seaweed salad and age tofu. All were delicious. The rolls didn't have a lot of rice which I like! The habachi came in a hot plate - sizzling hot! The love boat was perfect for all of us to share. The server was nice and service was fast.

    Fried cheesecake
    Michelle C.

    Is it house or a superb sushi place? The answer is yes. Housed in a literal house Tokyo Sushi is as homey as I could expect a sushi place to be. The staff was so kind and diligent and since we came at 2:30 on a Sunday, we were basically Home Alone! This place is great value for great quality. The sushi was superb! Wonderfully fresh and filling. I came on my birthday and was very kindly gifted me this fried cheesecake which was so delicious! This'll be a new go to sushi place for me. TLDR: It's cozy and it's sushi.

The neighborhood is nice and Sake Sushi is located in a small plaza, however I almost missed it since it is located on the side of the plaza and was not visible from the street. Inside I found an interesting mix of decor, it seems like a traditional Asian restaurant with white linen tableclothes and also some very modern touches including neon strip lighting along the ceiling and a variety of light fixtures. Overall a bit of a mishmash that would be better if they picked one style and stayed with it. I got there in the late afternoon so the place was empty at first, I was seated and given the menu which allows you to fill out what you want. The menu is fairly similar to other AYCE sushi places I have been at. Of note is that at dinner you can order up to 15 pieces of sashimi without an extra charge. I ordered a nice selection of sashimi, some sushi, a couple of different maki rolls, the salmon skin salad and the seafood soup. Interestingly the sashimi and sushi came out first, then the maki rolls, then the soup and salad. The sashimi was very good, fresh with nice sized pieces; the nigiri sushi had a nice portion of seafood to rice. I was a bit disappointed with the seafood soup, just a bit under seasoned and too much bean sprouts. The salmon skin salad was excellent with nicely roasted smoked salmon skin mixed with a bit of eel sauce, delicious, crunchy and one of my favorites that you don't see everywhere. I also enjoyed the scallops sashimi, large fresh raw scallops with a nice delicate flavor and texture. The maki rolls were good as well, nicely sized with plenty of filling. I did really enjoy the Super Lobster Roll with shrimp tempura, cucumbers, avocado then topped with lobster salad; the lobster salad was a nice treat, although I think it was made with lagostino lobsters it was still tasty. I also liked their version of spider roll, the soft shell crab was crispy and flavorful. I enjoyed my meal at Sake Sushi, dinner was $30 for all you can eat. The sushi and sashimi were very good, of course not quite the same quality as the best sushi bars but pretty close. Service was good and there are plenty of choices, including noodle dishes, fried rice, hibachi and tempura. The decor is a bit of a miss, but nothing that will keep you from enjoying your meal. Well worth a try if you are hungry and feel like some sushi and Japanese food.

    Quite possibly not just the worst sushi, but the worst food I've ever had in my life! The young…read morewoman in front was friendly and seemed nice, but had zero knowledge about the food. She called the sushi "chef" (that's a stretch in this case!) several times to answer questions. I asked if there were any spicy rolls, and he suggested a few, but they all contained imitation crab, which I find unappetizing. I finally settled on a Spicy Salmon Roll and a Soft Shell Crab Roll. I also ordered a Miso Soup. The Miso Soup arrived first, and it was a very watered-down version of Miso Soup with no umami. I stopped and pushed it aside after a couple of spoonfuls. The rolls arrived, and I was about to ask for wasabi and pickled ginger when I noticed these little pre-packaged plastic bags of wasabi and pickled ginger. I should have left then . . . a big mistake to stay. I started on the Spicy Salmon Roll. One bite and I knew I wouldn't enjoy it. I've never tasted such a mediocre take on sushi rolls. I ate two pieces because I was hungry, but it was all I could stomach. I looked at the Soft Shell Crab Roll and noticed that it contained imitation crab. I called the young woman over, and of course, she went and got the "chef". I told him that I didn't recall seeing imitation crab in the description of the roll on the menu. He said he'd make me a fresh batch without the imitation crab. The replacement roll came, and there were little red bits of something sprinkled on top of each slice. I called the young woman over and asked her what it was. She insisted that it was tobiko. Honey, I'm from California, and I know tobiko when I see it. This ain't tobiko. I gave her the benefit of the doubt. Again, another big mistake. I took a bite and quickly spat it out because my chest suddenly felt constricted. I started coughing, and tears began streaming down my face. My mouth felt like there had been a chemical explosion, and I had trouble breathing. I called the girl over again and, with a raspy voice, asked her what was in the roll. Of course, she called the "chef", and instead of answering my question, he told me he would refund me for the roll. My curiosity got the better of me. I was pretty certain it was the little red bits of "tobiko" that caused the reaction I had, so I scraped them off the next roll and removed the piece of soft shell crab, ate it, and it was fine. I braved myself and took a bite of the roll with the "tobiko", and had the same reaction as before. That was it. I'd had enough of this wannabe sushi joint. I gathered my things, told the young woman this was the worst food I've ever had, and left. That was such a frightening experience. The pain in my chest subsided after an hour or so, but my voice remained raspy for the rest of the day. I will never go back and wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. How this place garnered 4.4 stars is beyond me. Giving it 1 star is being overly generous!
