Dined on weeknight. Service was prompt. Orange blossom roll was yummy, yellowtail sushi very fresh and tasty, spicy scallop roll not very spicy, then a large special roll that I cannot remember the name of, but had several types of fish...it was good, not fantastic, but I think one of the ingredients just set it off from being great for me....onions? Crunchy topping? Either way, I'll be back. The pricing was also reasonable.

My wife and I learned about this place from a Japanese friend of ours. The sushi here is fantastic! High quality fish and friendly staff!

Delicious! We dined here last Saturday night and everything was fantastic! The food tasted great and the service was excellent.Here's what we ordered: gyoza (6 pc), donburi chicken teriyaki, negihama roll, unagi roll, caterpiller roll, sashimi combo (12 pc), dragonbow, beef ramen, and seafood ramen.We specifically asked them to make sure the beef in the beef ramen was not overcooked and it came out great.

Really good experience here. Small, simple little sushi spot with exceptional service. All of the servers were incredibly friendly and attentive. Good was good & fast and the presentation was nice. I would skip the beef teriyaki, was super tough meat to chew.

Yes!! The perfect sushi spot IMO. The service was fantastic (they were even training a new server and he was great), the food was DELICIOUS (the flashbang roll was so good), and they had good music playing and alcohol - everything I was looking for within a one mile radius from my house! Coming back asap.
Delicious. Fresh. Great atmosphere. Attentive staff. Easy parking. Great location hamachi was amazing and it's my favorite

Why did I come here? Bad reviews. Yes, really. Call me strange but I was intrigued by reports of rudeness. I wanted to see what was happening. So, I ate here alone once. Then a 2nd time, then a 3rd time. And a few days ago, a fourth time, with a friend. EVERY TIME.... everyone here was so nice. Each person there was sweet, friendly, courteous and helpful. So... keep in mind, sometimes people can be jerks to restaurant workers, and when they are, and they encounter a worker who's had enough and isn't standing for it, unfortunately the restaurant is the one who endures a negative, and possibly unfair, review.My friend by the way says all sushi tastes pretty much the same to her. Ok. Fair enough. And even SHE noted with grateful surprise that this sushi at Sushi Jae stood out as surprisingly good. I agree. The rice and fish were the right temp (not refrigerator cold) and tender, fresh and beautiful. Oh man.I like the low sodium soy sauce option (which to me just tastes so much better) and the ice cold Asahi beer.So why 3 stars for Atmosphere? Not a criticism. It's just a very basic environment. I don't need flowers and fish tanks. I like the low, ambient lighting. I got the Sushi Combo (I think?). It was like 29 bucks. Salad and soup included.Would I change anything ? Yeah. I'd do away with the masks. One pretty girl wasn't wearing one, thank G-d. And I think the entrance to the store could be brighter and more stylish. I honestly think it's an easy place to drive past. Either way, I so look forward to going back.

The food was amazing! I ordered the Croquettes and the Raiders Roll. The croquettes were delicious! Crispy outside and soft yummy inside. The Raiders Roll was amazing too! The spicy crab was spicier than I expected, but it was still sooo good! My partner ordered a Chicken Donburi and a California Roll and I had a bit of those too and they were great!
