Relaxed dining experience at the sushi bar. Fresh sashimi and delicious dragon roll. The service is incredible with fresh green tea served by the attentive waitstaff.
There are 3 lunch and dinner options with hundreds of possible combinations due to their large selection of fish and rolls.

My family and I have been long time customers of Sonobana back to when it was called Hama. I always haven gotten the box because it’s such a great deal and everything I gotten has always been good quality. My dad loves the sushi boat and quality of fish! Never disappointed! Would recommend

This place never stops to amaze me with their incredible fresh fish and delicious hot meals. If I could, I’d eat Sonobana all the time.

I had a really disappointing experience at Sono Bana Sushi. After being seated, it took 25 minutes just to get a menu. We then waited over an hour, and our food still hadn’t even been started. The kitchen seemed to be prioritizing only takeout and pickup orders, while dine-in guests were left waiting with no updates.
To be fair, our server was kind and kept apologizing, but nothing actually got resolved — just repeated apologies while we sat there hungry. Eventually, we decided to leave. I had heard good things about this place, but based on this experience, I can’t recommend it for anyone planning to dine in.

SonoBana is by far the best Sushi here in CT. The absolute freshness ingredients at all times. The friendly staff goes over and beyond to make you feel welcome. We’ve been coming to SonoBana for years. High Recommend!!
This is our favorite sushi in the area. After we moved, we're too far out for delivery, but we'll still often choose to pick up here over getting delivery from elsewhere. That is a testament to this restaurant because we can be pretty lazy. The spider roll is my fave.

Best sushi value to quality in GNH. Their hamachi kana is amazing. Their uni and ikura are superb. The sun hand roll is a delight. They've been here for almost forty years.

Arrived when I was told it would be ready but waited a little longer. No big deal if my food was hot but my food was actually cold when I got it so I'm not sure exactly what I was waiting for. I didn't end up finishing my food but ate most of it.
