Comfortable and good price for the all you can eat option. Good for 1st timers or once in a while visit. Frequent visits you may start to notice most sushi taste the same or similar and start to get tired or same style or flavors , so you may need to change your options to avoid that. Is fresh, clean, bathrooms are ok. Parking is fine. Nigiris are good. A la cart is ok but sushi isn't thatt big. 4 rolls for 20 is ok for 2 kids.

We didn't want to do the all you can eat, so we ordered a la cart sushi from the to go menu. It took about 50 minutes to receive our sushi. Meanwhile every other table was getting sushi every 10 minutes or so. I let the server know that we still didn't have any sushi yet multiple times, and they said they would go check the kitchen every single time. They would keep coming back to the table and ask how is everything? And we would respond with we still haven't gotten our food yet. They were not busy, multiple open tables and it was at 5pm on a Sunday evening. We finally get the sushi 50 or so minutes later and the sushi wasn't even good. We definitely won't be coming back to sake.

The Nigiri sushi is the best quality fish I have ever eaten.

If you haven't gone you need to. We have gone three times now and we absolutely love it each time. It is such a value. $35.99 for all. You can eat sushi. And they do have other items too. The food comes out pretty quick. It does get busy so I would suggest making a reservation. We have done every time and did not have to wait. The drinks are not included in the all. Can eat price. But boy we really enjoyed it. They make it to order so it's not sitting under hot lamps buffet style. Which was what we were worried about before visiting this restaurant. Again, if you like sushi this is the place to go. We've been really happy every time.

This place doesn’t get enough attention or customers, totally under rated. Great sushi, I mean it’s all you can eat, how can you beat that?? Fair lunch prices, love coming here

Hi there I am the server of this restaurant, just wanna reply the newest review of a customer, I swear it was a misunderstanding 😊
Hi friends 😊Just want to friendly explain 💖 After the peak lunch time, we take turns for short breaks — while I was resting, another one teammate was covering the whole restaurant. You happened to come in during that shift changing time. The moment I woke up and came back, immediately noticed you 👀✨ brought water and drinks right away, and explained how our restaurant work, thought new customers need a little more time to see the menu otherwise you will feel stressful to order immediately.
It probably caused a misunderstanding but we promise that wasn’t the case 💔 I swear this really was just a miscommunication. So sorry for this and we sincerely apologize. Next time you come, we’ll make sure you feel welcomed and well taken care of 🫶😊
We will continue to improve our team communication and the coordination of shift changes. Thank you for your valuable feedback, and we wish you all the best!❤️❤️

Can't really judge the food since we never received any. But the experience was very poor. The menu doesn't really explain how the place works. Had to wait 10 mins for a server to show up and take our drink order, where we asked how the place worked since it's a part time buffet. Instead of fully explaining it to my husband and I she just stated we order food and they bring it to us, then she walked away and started pushing a cleaning cart around... we sat there for another 5 mins baffled and then walked out.... will probably never be back, but you guys should definitely train your servers better

First time at Sake in Chico and loved it. Food was fresh and tasty, server were friendly and helpful with the menu, she suggested and recommended a couple of rolls with patience, and they ended up being my favorites of the day. The rolls were awsome and impressive, We'll be back for sure.

Food is great but on a slow day with minimal guests it still took a really long time for food to start coming out, what sealed the deal on the low rating is the attitude of the hostess. I was surprised when I was asked if the service was good and why the tip didnt reflect that and kept just repeating why. Definitely left a sour feeling and its unfortunate that we won't be coming back.
Just a fair warning.

Went here for my birthday with family and friends and the service was great, and the food was good. Really was glad to spend my birthday there.
Good food but weird host situation. I went to grab a table for my group before everyone arrived and was looked past, and asked “uh where is everyone else?” I responded and said “oh? They’re coming.” Was then told to wait in the lobby for the rest to arrive despite a nearly empty restaurant. Was then greeted again by the same employee and asked if the 4 people I was waiting on were “bigger or skinnier?” as she was trying to decide if we would all fit in a booth. Again, a nearly empty restaurant. Anyway, I will likely still come and enjoy some all you can eat sushi but was very off-put by the hostess this time around.

Absolutely loved this place. Ive been to many good places all around the bay area and great sushi and some not-even-close-to-great sushi. Being so far away from water, I have been very skeptical about sushi in Butte county. Ive had some pretty decent sushi in oroville and some garbage sushi there also.
In Chico, Ive had better luck. Most of the paces I've had here have been really good.
There are a couple of things that take it higher standing to me. Historically, I can't stand sushi that has octopus, squid, or eel. There are so many, SO many, places that do it poorly. I can't stand it. I always take a risk and try it at any new place I go.
I ordered 67. Octupus - super good. Tender, sliced, simple, excellent. 59. Nigeri Eel - SO surprisingly good. Prepared so amazingly. Flavor was shockingly good. The only place Ive ever ordered it and actually enjoyed it.
I ordered a bunch of other stuff. Everything was delicate, well-prepared and delicious. Stuff was very nice, attentive, great. Restaurant was clean and felt great. The kicker is that it is plate by plate all you can it. That just outs it over That just puts them over the top. Hands down the best placenIve gone to do far.

I have been to Sake 5 times since it has opened. The sushi is good, atmosphere is a little underwhelming, and it seems like they purposefully make themselves scarce so you cannot order all the food you want in the 90 minute time limit. Usually I can get 3 orders in before it's time to go. That being said, it's worth the small issues. I would recommend checking it out.
