I haven't been to Sushi Sake in a while since I've moved. But I came last Sunday evening, and I was so happy to see it packed! They were busy, and they had to-go orders lined up at the counter. It was awesome because they deserve it! And when it's busy, I always have a good feeling that the fish is going to be fresh. The servers are always so nice, the quality never fails, and the price is so fair for AYCE sushi. The place isn't rowdy, and it's a nice time to go out for dinner! Of course, there's a super delicious and reliable menu. My go-to is the volcano roll and nigiri pieces (salmon, tuna, and tamago). On average, I can stomach about 25 pieces here, and of course, order some apps! read more

Sushi Sake - Japanese Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

Our favorite sushi takeout close to home! We've been coming here for years. The fish always seems fresh and we have yet to find a roll we don't like. Rainbow roll has fresh and yummy tuna, salmon, and avocado. We like the Godzilla rolls- probably the least healthy option, fried with cream cheese. But so good with the spicy tuna! The dining area is nice- simple and clean with cozy booths on the sides and tables and chairs in the center; we just haven't stayed there to eat in a while. Their online ordering system is straightforward, and everything is priced reasonably. On a busy weekend night, you should expect the order to take a little longer than what the online ordering suggests. (40 minutes instead of 20-30, nothing too crazy!) Service is always friendly. Compared to other pricier spots, this is great for a casual date night or family dinner. read more

Came on a Sunday evening and the place was POPPIN! A crowd where most restaurants would put you on a 45 minute waitlist, we were sat within 2. Super delicious and reliable menu. They have an all-you-can-eat option that's actually worth it. My dad ALWAYS gets it, though it's never an absurd amount of food. Just the right amount-- when you factor in my stealing of a couple bites. The magic roll and St Louis roll are my go-tos, but you can't really go wrong. Especially for the prices. It's just as good for takeout at home, too. They just keep doing people right. read more

Went for the all you can eat and got choice of soup, salad or appetizer with 3 rolls and 4 pieces of nigiri. Service was super fast and friendly. Food was fresh and plentiful. As a vegetarian, I really appreciated the choices as well as how generous they are with the veggies, especially the avocado. Will be back! read more

The best sushi in St. Louis, such an affordable all you can eat option, everything always fresh and delicious, and awesome service!

not un eatable but not good, grabbed sushi to go because it is a bit cheaper than other places. But the price reflects the flavor. Some of the worst spicy tuna rolls I have had. very nice staff tho! read more

It was ok. Went for a friends birthday, the service was actually good. I got different roles and I could not tell the fish apart (mostly salmon and tuna). It was more like mystery meat. It tasted ok and I didn't get sick, so blessed lol read more

So yum! Tons of good options, quick service, even though the place was very busy on a Friday evening. My husband did the all you can eat sushi and it's a great deal and lots of good appetizers to come with! read more

Sushi Sake - Sushi - Japanese Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

Love sushi sake for a quick lunch! Their lunch specials are so affordable and they are quick too :)

I almost never make reviews, but this place deserves it. I've been to many AYCE sushi places around the country and in St. Louis. So far, this is the best one I've had, for a great price. Service was quick, friendly, and accommodating. Ambiance was relaxing. I've been to Machi Sushi and their quality has gone down since they opened. They had some of the best sushi I've had. Salmon and Tuna were fresh, and the rolls were good too. This is my new go-to place. read more

I haven't been to Sushi Saki for a long time but was in the mood for sushi and it's one of few things close to my house. Inside was smaller than I remember, but still plenty of seating and didn't feel cramped. Pretty busy for later on a Saturday evening. Staff was friendly. My server was upbeat and didn't mind my questions I ordered vegetable tempura and a shrimp tempura roll. The vegetable tempura had good flavor and was super hot but I wished the pieces would have been smaller and thinner. They were really thick slices and the broccoli piece was huge. The shrimp tempura roll was just the right amount with five pieces. It hit the spot, nothing fancy but that was fine. The service was quick and the food was decent read more

Always quick, fresh and delicious!! Tried almost every roll and a bunch of appetizers and never disappointed!

The service was horrible. Barely checked on us. Took forever to get. The lighting isn't good. Smelled like weed. The food was eh.

The food is always very good especially for the money. The service was ok, not great, not bad. My friend ordered all you can eat and it took FORever for them to come back a second time. Ambiance is your typical fast sushi restaurant read more

Loved this place! They have all my favorites: sweet potato roll, avocado roll. Loved the miso and edamame. Everyone with us loved their food and the prices are fantastic! Get the mochi for dessert! read more

They brought out old sushi that was sweating, tasted bad, and I had diarrhea for two following days after. Do not recommend.

It's pricey but for all you can eat it's 100% worth it. I would recommend spending the couple extra bucks per person for unlimited sushi dinner as they have more options available for dinner. read more

Sushi Sake - vegetable tempura - Japanese Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

I've been to Sushi Sake on a couple of occasions for their all you can eat lunch special. It has been awhile since my last visit but today my daughter and I decided to stop in for a couple of apps and a few rolls. The service was very good but the all you can eat selections were not as I had remembered. I remember a larger selection of rolls. Unfortunately, the all you can eat is now very limited to just a few basic rolls. In the past the lunch crowds were much larger, many times the restaurant was full. This time there were only a couple other patrons besides ourselves so apparently the word is out. It's a shame when for whatever reason a good thing can be ruined by menu changes. read more

Ordered to go so can't speak for the service, however the sushi was amazing! Godzilla roll, Tokyo roll and Shrimp tempura roll were all delicious. read more

Sushi Sake - two trays of food on a table - Japanese Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

The owner or manager (little Asian man) is extremely rude!!! (Seems like other reviews say the same thing) He needs a course on customer service. He's lucky the sushi is good and the prices are somewhat affordable or no one would ever come back. I feel bad for his staff, if he yells at the customers, I can only imagine how he treats the poor workers. The prices continue to go up while the quality goes down. They are putting less and less fish in the rolls every time I go back. AYCE, good luck getting the waiters to come back to see if you want to re-order which I'm sure is part of their plan. Their shrimp shumai are the best I've ever had. They are crispy instead of steamed! Yum Yum! Wish the hibachi portions were bigger, the plate is pretty small. Overall, to avoid the rude owner/manager I suggest calling in and picking up your order but highly recommend ordering one hour before you want to pick up... they take FOREVER! read more

Service here is quick and excellent. Sushi is fresh and tasty. I recommend the excellent value of the all you can eat menu. read more

Sushi Sake is an amazing restaurant. From the quality to the service, everything about it is wonderful. Seemingly unassuming from the outside-- the ambiance is really comfortable once you arrive inside the restaurant. As for the sushi, the quality and price are amazing. We ordered two sweet potato rolls, edamame and fried rice. $3.75 per sweet potato roll?? That's a deal. They were huge too, and tasted amazing with the perfect ratio of sweet potato to tempura. They accommodated nicely to our vegan diet, but I would say the only negative is that they didn't have tofu for the fried rice. I would definitely come just for the sushi and less for the other dishes. If you're looking for a solid sushi place to stop by, Sushi Sake is definitely the place to do it. read more

Best value AYCE sushi in STL. Friendly staff and delicious rolls! I love the salads and the Godzilla roll.

The service at this place is awful! The little man that runs the place doesnt know what he's doing. He has a terrible attitude and just simply rude. The food was not good at all! I would give it zero stars. It had no taste and the chicken was flavorless and dry/rubbery. Not worth the wait or my money. read more

Stopped here for dinner few nights ago and was extremely disappointed with everything. We got seated and our waiter rushed us through everything. We noticed they were short staffed so we didn't think much of it and ended up just being patient. Our waiter took our order and we ended up waiting more than a hour to get our food... we got one entree 40 mins later and it was horrible it tasted like it's been sitting out the noodles were way over cooked and the steak just didn't taste right and all of the veggies as well. After waiting for so long and not getting a refill at all we decided to leave we couldn't wait any longer and all the kids were hungry! Then we told them we don't want to do the all you can eat and insisted we just pay for what we ate which was one entree.. then the waiter told us our total was $60 and our jaws dropped we were extremely annoyed at this point so we asked him for what? We never got any sushi we ordered and he took both slips and we only got one entree out of all the things we ordered. He then realized he had never gotten us our sushi or any of the other orders once we mentioned it to him at the point we told them that this was a horrible experience for the first time here and I been here few times already. Then the manager I'm guessing comes up to us starts acting up talking crazy and yelling at us then we explained everything and he got mad that we weren't going to pay full , but for what though we never gotten our food? Starts pointing his finger at us and picks up the menu book as if he was going to do something walks back to the kitchen cussing at us in front of all his guests I was in shock I never witnessed this kind of behavior extremely inappropriate and there were all kids there. So he told us to leave and we were more than happy to NEVER coming back! But now looking at all these reviews not the first time he's acted this way towards his guests!!! I then told him if they were so understaffed that they should put signs on the doors and have the waiters let us know instead of saying food will be ready every five mins over and hour. read more

Service and specialty rolls are the best. We love it. Tokyo -magic rolls are so fresh and delicious. Busy all the time.

Always great sushi. Nothing fancy, but consistently great sushi. We love them all - and have tried mist!!! Godzilla always a good place to start for a beginner. read more

I've gone here for years and the place has diminished in quality as I diminish in years left on this earth. Luckily I may save some off the end of my life by skipping this place for the remainder of my days. Simply stated the inside is filthy and the rolls are as disappointing as this roll hanging over my belt. My wife literally spit a bite out, which is strange because she will swallow anything. read more

Me and my dad come here all the time. We are very big fans. food is always on point. always super warm. Their service is always so fast and you get seated right away. The shrimp shumai are the best thing on the menu!!! if you are craving sushi this is the place to go! read more

Hubby and is fav!! For the price, the quality is so high! All the employees are super sweet too

Okay so to start off this review I'm going to describe the curb appeal. Walking up to this restaurant you can already tell it's low key and a hole in the wall type of place. Coming inside, the place is not very well lit I guess you could say its "low key". Seating I would say is placed well you're not on top of other people dining in the restaurant given the size is a little small which is great. Moving forward. On the Menu they have a wide variety of appetizers to choose from. This particular dining experience I chose to go with the Miso soup and Crab Rangoon which both I will rate highly. The soup came out at the perfect temperature and the Crab Rangoon had the crunchy exterior and the soft interior just the way I like it. Moving on to the main entree after deciding from their many options of delicious sushi rolls i went with the shrimp tempura roll. In the roll i decided to remove the avocado and cucumber. I was definitely pleased with my visit here. The taste and freshness of my food was pleasant. The service was quick and the drinks were on refill I can't complain. I will be coming here again. Try it out you won't regret it. Keep in mind you do get what you pay for, these are definitely affordable good quality rolls. read more

It was a lot of trouble for just decent food. I had to call in the order instead of using the Yelp-Grubhub link because my phone keeps freezing. It was really confusing trying to get the staffer's attention long enough to order. When I got there, there was a big clot of teenagers in the doorway, and once I got inside, it took quite awhile once again for the right person to appear at the register, have a similar confusing session with another person calling in an order, look at the bags sitting on the counter, call out my phone number, hand me my food, and take my payment. It was a pretty chaotic environment whether due to staff shortages or inefficient staff usage. Considering how long the food had been sitting (and that was only partly the stuff I've just described, I'd already been running late), the veggie tempura was fine. The St. Louis roll was good but not $13 good. Maybe if they hadn't promised me mango in it and then not delivered, I would feel better about it. It was just a nice tuna and avocado roll with extra yellowfin on top. read more

Sushi Sake - Noodles with chicken - Japanese Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

I don't even know where to start. From the minute we walked in to the minute we paid. HORRIBLE service. I can't even tell you all about it because it's too much. Had to ask for drinks, then had to ask for an app. To order food.....it took me saying I'm putting cash on the table for our sodas and apps and leaving. they begged me to stay. It never got better AND I had to bus my table so my girls had room to eat. All you can eat....joke. That means they would have to bring you more....But they never come back lol. Well over $100 and we didn't get half our food. The one star was is for the food and food only. lots of amazing sushi places to eat. So don't waste your time or money read more

Sushi Sake is a good, local place to get sushi. I've gotten sushi here twice and both times have been good, but the second left a little to be desired. Both times I got a California roll - the first time was pretty good, but the second time the avocado was too mushy which ruined the roll. However, I have also ordered the fantasy roll with shrimp and cucumber, which has been consistently good. Overall, Sushi Sake is pretty good and worth going. Update: Had to take a star off my rating because the last time I came here was absolutely awful. I got a spicy tuna and spicy salmon roll to go and neither tasted very good. read more

Sushi Sake - Japanese Near Me - Saint Louis, Missouri

This sushi spot far exceeded my expectations. It is run out of an unassuming location, but the food is delicious, the pricing represents excellent value, the waitstaff are polite and attentive, and the restaurant is kept very clean. Those who have eaten at Sushi Ai will probably find this restaurant similar in many ways. It's a great spot to grab a healthy lunch for just a little more than the cost of fast food ($12.99 for 2 rolls, 2 additional sushi pieces, and an appetizer). read more

Went here last night and we got seated. Took a while for the waiter to come over to get our drinks. I think he had no clue what he was doing. Management is extremely poor this time around. People had been waiting a while before anyone got their food. I seen pickup people waiting more than 45 mins. We waited over an hour and still had not got 1 piece of sushi. It was past 9pm we were starving. We got there before 8pm and it was getting ridiculous. He never refilled our drinks. We order the all you can eat sushi and a order of chicken fried rice. We still never got a piece, a roll or a drink refill. So at this point we told him we wanted to leave. He tells us at the checkout our bill was $60... $60 for what we got no damn sushi. The waiter and owner started talking in their language about us. The waiter thought he gave us sushi we said no and then the look on his face showed he remembered he didn't give us any sushi. Then he said we needed to pay for the appetizers which were supposed to be included in the all you can eat and said it was $35 I said how, I said that's ridiculous I ain't paying that. I said you didn't give us a damn roll of sushi. I said we waited more than a hour and got no sushi, there was no sign on the door that the business was very understaffed and had no management. The owner has no self control or good customer service. I said if you would have had a sign on the door saying short staffed or the waiter could have said it will be a wait then okay, but nobody said nothing. The owner started saying something really fast I heard fucking and then I started cussing at him. He said you pissing me off. Then he kept pointing his finger in my face, so I got more mad and we were yelling back and fourth. He took the bill book and opened it up like he was going to throw it our face and he stopped him self before he threw it at me and I heard him say get out and don't come back. So we left. I've never seen someone act like that. It all happened so fast. All I seen was a young girl working hard but the rest seemed like they didn't know what they were doing. Everyone was waiting FOREVER for their food. It was getting very close to closing. The inside was so cold. The vent above us was caked with dust. I see the people picking up their orders were waiting about long as us. Pickup is supposed to be faster. Either they need some serious help with management/owner or it needs to be closed. I will never be back by my own choice because of the nasty service and the insane wait time. This isn't a 5 star fancy restaurant to have to wait more than an hour and to be treated bad. I won't ever recommend again! read more
