I sat in a booth and I know that this is so picky, but the seats were so far back from the end booth that I had to sit on the same side as my friend to reach the table. Not a dealbreaker, just uncomfortable. The food was great though! I had a tempura shrimp roll and found it crispy and yummy. The vegetable udon was the star and it was packed with flavor. Will go again!

Suggestion would be to not do reservations as an establishment if the time isn't guaranteed. The only good thing was the show was nice (from the other table)

This was our first time trying new beginning. While everything was fresh, I couldn't help but feel like it was missing something in terms of flavor. That didn't stop us from devouring it. My daughter had the bento which was great. She said she was satisfied with the portion and overall taste/quality for the price. There are so many options to choose from. It'll take us a while to try them all. There's something for everyone including a vegan menu.

We had friends come into town and they wanted to go to Okinawa's for dinner so we said "well let's try it again". Honestly we had the best time and wow the food was really good! The chef was really good and did a great job with carrying on a conversation with each one of us as well as cooking for the table! Funny thing our chef wasn't Asian at all. I ordered the teriyaki chicken with vegetables and fried rice. We also ordered a sushi roll. Have to say I think we will be back in the future! All the waiters were super nice and friendly. All the food was very reasonably priced! We felt we definitely got our moneys worth of food and great atmosphere and friendly face from the chef!

Loved the fresh crispy salad and the ginger dressing was so good, not the average type dressing. I look forward to going in to Sushi Bear and try the fresh Sushi.

We frequently order/eat from Sake house 2... They never disappoint! The staff is genuine and kind,…read morethey even know what we always order, including drinks and remember it! We love dining from Sake House 2 because the staff is genuine and attentive to you. Excellent meals, superior quality and large portion sizes! We eat-in or go through Door Dash. They always cook the steak the way you want. If the door dash doesn't allow you to customize the order, you can call the restaurant and they will update and make it the way you want, such as without vegetables or without sesame seeds. Prices are exceptional. Dine-in lunch for Teriyaki ranges from $12-$14, (with chicken teriyaki is $12). Hibachi ranges from $12-$15. Dinner for Teriyaki ranges from $16-$24 (including 2x meat, like chicken and steak $24 and chicken teriyaki being $18. We don't like sushi, but they have an extensive number of sushi and put it on bamboo boat designs for how they serve at the restaurant. It's truly a work of art!

Today I stuck it out, and I can confirm you get used to the smell haha! The service was great. My waitress was super sweet. She was really on top of it and had that knack of showing up exactly when you need her and leaving you alone for the rest of it. 10/10. The Sapporo beer was good. I got the spicy tuna roll and the Diablo roll. I LOVED the Diablo roll. The tuna roll was pretty boring- it's about half the size and about half the price. They're generous with the tuna, there's just not much going on besides that. So I would definitely recommend getting a specialty roll! Can't wait to try more in the future :)

True to form, we ordered way too much and somehow still left wishing we had room for more. This round: soup dumplings, chicken udon, chili noodles, and of course the famous pull-apart roti that will forever own a piece of my soul. Every single dish had its own bold flavor moment while still somehow complementing everything else on the table perfectly. That balance is honestly what Hawkers does best. And my "off menu" drink? The Ube Spritz. Yessss please. I need that in my life permanently. The only thing better than the eats, the drinks, and the vibe was our server, Kermit. Absolute standout service. If we come back and he's working, we'll gladly wait however long it takes for his section. That's how good the experience was.

Overall, I would definitely recommend!
