Solid teriyaki place. Plenty of parking. Place is super clean inside, including the restroom. Portions are good. Flavor of the chix and sauce are excellent. Chix itself was a little cool for my choice. Super fast service. Not busy mid day Fri. Don't need anyone to but no one checked on me after service. Do recommend. read more

Ordered Chicken Teriyaki and they not only messed the simple order up, but overcharged me as well. Sake Sushi was run by the same family for years, Since they're departure things have steadily gone down hill read more

Amazing staff and service!!!! Food was hot when it came out and quick! Amazing spot with great ambiance.

As someone from Hawaii who's accustomed to Michelin-rated Japanese cuisine, I have high standards when it comes to sushi--and Sake Sushi & Grill absolutely delivered! I ordered the Chirashi (Sashimi Salad), and my husband had the Sushi Bento. Both dishes were outstanding. The sushi rice was a standout--perfectly cooked and seasoned, which is rare to find even at well-known spots. The selection of sashimi was exceptionally fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. You could taste the care and quality in every bite. My husband couldn't stop raving about his Sushi Bento dinner, and we both agreed: Sake Sushi & Grill has officially become our new favorite. If I could give it a Michelin rating, I would--hands down. We can't wait to return! read more

My new favorite sushi place in Tacoma!! The food is good, the prices are fair - and they don't drown it all in salt. We had a few rolls and an order of fried rice (which was huge). Everything was excellent - nothing fancy, no frills. Simply really good food. Service was friendly and fast. Highly recommend. read more

Sadly the past few times they quality what's in the chef selection nigiri combos has changed when I first went it was a nice variety with scallop nigiri, unagi, etc... last couple time I got fish duplicates. Service can be slow. It's a small spot read more

Came here from over the bridge looking for some good sushi. Place was clean, fish was fresh, but the sushi had a lot of rice so we filled up quick. Prices were on par and would come back again. read more

We had a great dinner! Take out was ready quickly - especially for a Friday night - and was super tasty. The sushi lovers were happy and the non-fish eaters loved the yakisoba. read more

My husband and I popped in before a game and we were pleasantly surprised at how good the food was. It's such a small place in a lackluster strip mall, we didn't expect to like it so much. The service was exceptional and the waiter was so friendly. The restaurant is not big so I wouldn't recommend for larger parties. We got sushi and noodles. read more

This place has great bentos if you are in the mood for that. The layout of the restaurant is a long room, but there is space for you to sit with others. I usually get take out and the people are friendly. Nothing fancy but if looking for quick and easy, as well as good, I recommend, esp. if you live close-by. read more

Hands down my favorite place for sushi. I come over from Vashon Island to get it then hop on a ferry right back because there isnt a sushi place over here. Always worth the trip!! read more

This place is not for sushi. Sushi rice was very dry and smashed, didn't taste like sushi rice - no vinegar no sugar flavor. Nori was chewy and no flavor at all. Also, price is over priced for sushi. I would go met market for sushi. I saw frozen fried chicken defrosting by the restroom, which grossed me out. Flies flying. I won't go back. Other customers eating stir fries and noodles. Maybe this place is good for Chinese food. Service is fine. read more

I brought my daughter here as an after-school treat. I wasn't prepared for the degree of quality and reverence for food - nor the superior kindness, thoughtfulness, and warmth of the staff. The vibe is very clean, classic Japanese minimalism that maximizes space without becoming claustrophobic. The service was exceptional for a 3pm drop in and my daughter was constantly delighted by the care to very whimsical detail (an adorable rabbit side plate, as we split a lunch bento) and kwai chopsticks to help my lady work on her chopstick skills with some dignity. I was so happy, I immediately began texting people to rave about it. Absolutely fresh, perfect flavors, nothing stale, everything balanced. Someone mentioned Michelin- and I quite agree. Easily the most underrated restaurant I've found in Tacoma in a few years. I'll be back too often! (I'm ordering from them again right now) read more

Gyoza was good and crispy, and even got two extra pieces! My roll was okay, only because rice was overcooked, so slightly mushy. So huge turnoff. Not sure I'll ever get sushi from here again.Reviews say they have a killer yakisoba though lol, read that after I ordered. Should be called Sucki Sushi. read more

I have been here several time over the last several years and have overall enjoyed the food. Today I stopped In for lunch with my kid while using the laundromat next door. They were pretty busy so we sat down and waited to be helped. Before I talk about the food, I want to comment on the service- which I found to be exceptional. My son ordered 2 sushi rolls, then I ordered an entree and a couple apps for us to share. His rolls came out in the normal time and it was quite a while for the rest of the food. Maybe an extra 10-15 min? It wasn't that terrible but noticeably a longer wait than what appeared to be normal, but they were busy so it didn't bother me that much. When they brought the apps (gyoza and veggie tempura) and my main they apologized for the wait and explained a mix up with the order. No worries. A couple minutes later our server came back and said due to the delay, the appetizers are on the house. (!!!) the amount of times a restaurant has proactively apologized for any service issue has been like zero I think. Basically, every place I've been waits for you to present an issue and then even then usually they just say sorry. They don't even think of doing anything until you ask. I didn't complain and wouldn't have. I still would have left a good review, but I am very impressed with the service. They went above and beyond and I will never forget that. The sushi rolls ordered were the orange blossom roll and the Alaskan roll. They were tasty and beautifully presented. The orange slices and all were so pretty! I've never seen sushi presented like that. (I don't eat a ton of sushi so that's not saying a lot, but from my limited knowledge/experience it's unique). I tried both rolls and the fish was fresh. The veggie tempura and gyoza were tasty- really, can't go wrong with either. I always wish there was more, but these are standard serving sizes. They are $3.99 for gyoza and $7.99 for veggie tempura. For my main I ordered beef donburi. I had Never heard of donburi before today so I was curious to try something new. It wasn't quite what I expected. I didn't realize the sauce would be teriyaki. It was basically the rice veggies and meat all piled together instead of separate with the teriyaki sauce all over it and an egg on top. I was a little sad about the egg. I thought I would have a soft yolk that I could break and enjoy with the bowl but it was more cooked than that. Im not sure if the egg was still all one piece even? It was tasty regardless and with a menu this large, it's fun to try new things. (I'm a creature of habit so trying new things at a place I've been to several times isnt always my jam. Butttt I figured I owed it to the people (you) to try something new and let you know about it. read more

We came here because of a good review. We felt like sushi and wanted to try a new place to us, It's does not look like much from the outside. But it's a hidden gem. Fresh fish. Extra large servings on the Bento box. It was authentic sushi. Great service. We plan to come back, read more

We decided to stop by here tonight for dine in service. It's New Year's Eve and we are celebrating with our 9-year-old daughter, so this seemed like a great idea. We live nearby, but have never been in. She and I are both vegetarian, so we shared edamame, tofu yakisoba, and tofu teriyaki. Her dad had chicken teriyaki. Everything was really good! The tofu in the tofu teriyaki was my favorite. They were lightly breaded, but not oily at all. Our service was fantastic. Perfect choice. read more

I've been back here a handful of times because they are one of the only sushi joints in my neighborhood and have been reliable with good quality sushi. However, I will not be back anymore due to a terrible restaurant atmosphere and lack of professionalism by some of the staff there. What's the point in good food if you can't enjoy it in peace? 75% of the times I've been there, there seems to be some sort of yelling and aggressive shouting happening in the kitchen, to the point that it made me and other guests in the restaurants uncomfortable. It happens often enough that it's clear there's an issue here that management can't seem to address. I'm not expecting a fine dining ambience, but guests should be able to experience a peaceful meal without looking over their shoulders worried about what's going on and whether it's going to explode into a physical dispute. Not classy. read more

Got takeout. The salmon lemon roll is my favorite thing. I have not dined in, but every time I go in to pick up my order the employees are always friendly and attentive. It's always good to have a solid go-to sushi spot. read more

Super cute, almost divey feeling sushi spot. Came in for lunch completely by accident with my two kiddos. We were on a neighborhood walk and saw this place in our nearby strip mall. It just so happened we stopped at the flying fish first and they STILL aren't doing dine in service but that's another story...so by happenstance we found this gem instead. We collectively had the chicken teriyaki, cucumber roll and a small side of veggies. Everything was really tasty and the service was equally awesome. You can tell this is a family owned and operated business and I'm happy to have found it!! read more

I had the Julie Roll, Spider Roll, and Ahi Tuna Tower. The latter was the best of the three, as the tuna was quite fresh. Everything else was good, not great. For some reason the Spider Roll portion was smaller than all the rest. Mostly dinging the stars for overall value--after tax & tip this came to $50. A bit steep for what I received. Not sure if I'll return. read more

My boyfriend and I absolutely love this place. We have been going here for about 4 years now. The food is amazing and they give you fair portions. The service is awesome, they're all so friendly and they remember you when you come in often. We have only dined in a couple of times but when we did the service was great, never had to call the waitress over as she was attentive the whole time. The environment in here is welcoming, I definitely recommend this place! read more

This was the worst service, food, and ambiance. The waitress service everyone who came in after us before us. The food tasted like plastic. Overall the absolute worst ever. read more

Our favorite "go-to" sushi for holidays and regular dining. We've been pleased with both take out and dine in.

Hole in the wall restaurant but don't let that stop you. Such good sushi and really great teriyaki dishes. Seems like it's a family owned spot, everyone is always really nice and my orders have always been correct. Perfect place for a great take out meal. read more

This place has always been a hit! I've never had less than a 10/10 experience here. Food is always really fresh & super affordable! Egg Rolls $4, General Tsao plate $13 Spicy California Roll $9 & Dragon Roll $13. It's a small place so not ideal for big groups but definitely worth a quick bite or takeout. Jennifer is the server here & always is super quick & nice no matter how busy it is. Vaccination card not required, bathrooms are always clean & staff wears masks. Highly recommend :) read more

Jennifer is an absolute gem! Her father that is the sushi chef their I believe always does an amazing job with the presentation of each roll! Very tentative to detail.

So thankful for this place can't wait to come back always! :) read more

Stopped in randomly before heading to the Tacoma Musical Playhouse..small restaurant probably about 6 or so tables. I was weary when we stepped inside, but were welcomed with kindness...it wasn't too busy, only 2 other tables but there was a lot of ppl coming in who ordered takeout. The food came quick and service was great. We weren't too hungry so we ordered some sushi. I got the Japan Chirashi bowl. My partner got the Orange Blossom roll and the Salmon lemon roll. The 2 sushi rolls were big and delicious. My Chirashi bowl was big as well, lots of sashimi came with it. It did need more rice though. The sashimi seemed fresh, it was not sticky or fishy. The only reason why I didn't give this place a 5 was because of some minor cleanliness issues. The tables were a bit sticky.. we only had one menu per table. I'll probably go back and try some other stuff off their menu next time we are in the area... read more

Food- standard fair of sushi and teriyaki selection. Ambiance- small restaurant, good for seating parties of 2-4, but can accommodate larger parties up to 8. Service- friendly, mom and daughter local business. Kid friendly. Location - in strip mall behind Shell gas station, facing EL Toro restaurant. Value- average value, as expected for standard fair sushi. Recommendation- if you're around, and want some good sushi, this is a great option! read more
