    Pink Lady Roll
    Theresa R.

    We like this place and went for lunch today. They have some good lunch combo options so you can have a good meal for $15. We opted for a pink lady roll and some fried rice. I didn't care the large amount of red onion in the rice. Found it odd an Asian place would use red vs yellow or white onion in fried rice. And don't like that they gave us only one menu for 2 people. When asked an additional was provided by why would you not give each person a menu.

    We adore Sawa Sushi! Our family has been coming here for years it's our favorite sushi restaurant in town. The food is so good with excellent service. The staff are very nice and always treat us so well. I also love the ambiance it's very calm and relaxing. Great place to have a nice meal or celebrate a special occasion. My favorite sushi roll would have to be the "Sex on the beach or Black dragon roll."

    The food was good, presentation was cute. Once again this does have raw fish so we felt that the quality of the ingredients was good, everything was fresh and the service was just as fast and friendly. We love a nice local spot for some good sushi. Even better if it's within walking distance! There are many options on the menu but we chose a sushi platter for two and we found that was the best value! Oh and there are also other menu options besides sushi ;) While it may look like a whole in the wall place, I promise you it's worth coming here.

    Came here for lunch on a Thursday with a co-work. We arrived shortly after they opened and were seated immediately. They offer some fun rolls as well as the traditional ones. Service & food was good- will be back.

    Yes! Sawa sushi is back open for dining! We had a lunch as beautiful as it was delicious! When we entered with our masks, we had a quick temperature check and were seated at a very acceptable distance from other diners. However, I was not too far away from a mom and son who were delighted with the food presentation and the taste of their food. I could hear them rave about everything, and they said they would bring their whole family back.....and they have a big family! I enjoyed watching someone else who was thrilled with dining here like I am! Let me tell you, once you visit a few times, they know you. If you order the same thing all the time, they will remember. So today, I fooled them. I wanted to convince my husband we could still get sushi in retirement. We ordered a lunch special where you choose 3 rolls (generously sized) and a salad and soup for $14. This is a great deal for lunch because we split it and had plenty of food. Ok, we might have added a few things for fun, but not because we were hungry. We had strawberry and mango mochi for dessert.....ahhhh, so refreshing on a summer day. You won't be sorry if you check this place o

    We stopped here for my friend's birthday dinner. First thing we noticed is the building was in some disrepair. It used to be a Pizza Hut and repurposing a very obvious building structure is akward at best. The red of the previous paint job is coming through all over the exterior. Parking lot is safe and well lit but also in some disrepair. The service was fast and efficient but cold and distant. No casual chat, banter or anything remotely close to friendly. The food came out fast and was a solid average for the genre. The spicy tuna sushi was first rate but the seafood ramen was average, as was the shrimp tempura. I'd order the sushi again but not the ramen or tempura. The building is clean inside but the employee sleeping in one of the booths near us felt odd. I'm not sure why but I didn't like it. It felt tacky. All in all, this restaurant was a solid average and I prefer to eat at locations that excel.

    Came in on a Sunday night with our little kids. We ordered seafood miso soup and miso eggplant as our appetizer . The miso soup was more flavorful than regular miso as the seafood added a great flavor. The eggplant had a very unique taste, but was delicious . We also ordered chicken fried rice, and 3 sushi rolls. The rolls were falling apart when picked up, but tasted fresh. The service was very slow, even though there was only 2-3 groups of people dining in.

    We went here because the reviews are great. We would not go back. The surface was OK. The ambience was OK. (still feels like Pizza Hut ) The food is just OK. We ordered a sushi plate as an appetizer. It came after we had gotten our meal. I ordered the seafood Ramen. The broth did not have a lot of flavor. My wife had the pork Ramen. Which was a little better. Service was all around slow. we had to ask someone else for a box in our check. And then we still had to wait quite a while.

    What vegan options are available?

    I had miso soup and salad, but I also saw sweet potato tempura sushi and other vegetable sushi. There are noodle dishes, but I didn't check if the noodles were vegan.

    The other reviews that drove me here were right! What a great sushi spot!…read more The spicy edamame was different here vs other places, and I LOVE that when restaurants offer something else other than just plain salt -- people, we can do that at home! Use your creativity to come up with other ways to simply dress the edamame! See my pic on that to learn more. The assorted nigiri pieces came out prettier than most other sushi spots, they definitely brushed it to make it look pretty, and that's setting the bar higher where it should be! My roll was the Makizushico Special Roll and I was very pleased with it, however, it looks nothing like their picture online. I'd get it again next time.

I recommend planning ahead with a reservation, as they can get busy during a dinner rush. We were visiting Colorado for a quick weekend trip and were floored by the food here. While the rolls all sounded great, we opted for an omakase experience. It is priced at market value, so I imagine this could vary over time, but they had three tiers for omakase, which I thought were all fairly priced for the amount of food included. We opted for the highest tier, which was $120 pp, and it was incredibly filling with high quality cuts of fish and a thoughtfully curated menu. The sushi chef who took care of us was incredibly kind, and it was clear he put a lot of care into the food he prepared. If you're on the fence, hop off and make that reservation and come hungry for the omakase experience!

My brother was nice enough to let me grab a couple of pictures of his food before he started eating, which was greatly appreciated. My shiitake buns were delicious, and I wanted more when I finished the two I ordered. It was a nice, low-spice taste with a wonderfully soft bun that held everything together well. Definitely would have ordered more if not for the big bowl of ramen that came shortly after. Vegetable Ramen can be a tough dish to make tasty, as ramen typically uses animal broths to hold the flavor, but Nami did an excellent job. All the toppings they used fit perfectly, especially the fried tofu, which is my favorite go-to for any ramen restaurant. If you are in the area and want a filling meal, go check out Nami Ramen!

Because this place deserves your attention for their kind and attentive service, great variety (there are tons of dishes I don't normally see like Vietnamese Fried Chicken!), and home style meals. Our normal go to Pho run is Pho Basil which is a bit out of the way. And while I will never stop going there, I am adding Pho Real to the mix. I loved their beef tendon and brisket pho. I got the medium and it was a perfect amount for me. I loved how they cut up the tendon into very manageable pieces. I was able to savor a little bit of everything in each bite. I do have to say they are very generous with the portions. But their pho broth at the bottom of the bowl was very salty. So I only finished it up what I could eat with the noodles. Which was a lot!
