Sakana Japanese Restaurant is a hidden gem that has been serving locals with solid Japanese cuisine for decades. The miso soup is fantastic, the sushi is above average, and the tempura is perfectly fried. The house salad with great ginger dressing and the consistently delicious and reasonably priced food make this a neighborhood favorite. The friendly staff and fast service add to the positive dining experience.
Customers praise the authentic and high-quality sushi, with traditional rolls like the Ume and kanpyo that are rarely found in America. The intimate but not cramped or loud atmosphere and lovely decor create a pleasant ambiance. Diners recommend the eel bowl, which is hot, filling, and tasty, as well as the plum wine, which complements the green tea mochi ice cream's restrained bitter-sweet flavor. Overall, Sakana Japanese Restaurant offers good food, attentive service, and a great value.
