We drive by Cafe Sato for many years without knowing its existence! I happened to search for a place to eat after Sunday Mass and found it open. Surprisingly we had a great lunch experience - nice ambiance, good service, and valuable foods. We had a couple orders of Mackerel and flying fish roes to start with. My husband’s Kobe burger was good and he said he’d order it again. My chicken bento box is portioned well with a good balance of mixed green salad, teriyaki chicken, and sushi roles. We will definitely come again.

Super frustrated with my last experience here. I ordered takeout with clear instructions about food allergies, and the food was prepared with the allergens included. Anyone with food allergies knows it happens on occasion, sometimes it's an innocent mistake and the restaurant will make it right. However they refuse to make it right, so I got stuck with food I had to pay for but could not eat. I've since reached out to management on multiple occasions as well, giving the benefit of the doubt that maybe the specific personnel who needed to address it wasn't available at the time, but no such luck. If you have food allergies, or just generally expect customer service to be available to you if something is wrong with your order, it's not worth it to eat here.

We've been going to Cafe Sado for years & have had nothing but great experiences. Their food & sushi is always delicious and the wait staff are amazing.

I ordered a ramen dish, as well as the crab dip off the menu. I really enjoyed both dishes, but my only complaint is that the menu states you get house made pita chips with the crab dip and it only came with french bread that was rock hard. And the ramen was supposed to come with a boiled egg, but it ended up being a fried egg. The food was still good. Just slightly disappointed when I got home and saw that!

Delicious green curry and their extreme pad Thai option! Great dumplings too. I thought the mango sticky rice was pretty mid but my boyfriend, who had never had it before, said it was the best dessert he's ever had.Mango stickyrice edit: I went back a couple weeks later and asked for more coconut milk on my mango stickyrice and it was fantastic!

Perfect for a night out with friends, family, or a romantic date! Sushi, curry, fried rice, seafood soup, duck confit, Tonkatsu Ramen, variety of sashimi and sushi rolls, and more! Incredible selection and amazing flavors! I ordered the duck confit for takeout and you can see in the pictures that even as takeout its amazing! The indoor dining room is very cute and romantic atmosphere with perfect low lighting and an elegant mood. Great for all ages! Vegetarian options! Lots of parking.Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options, and most entrees can switch out the protein for tofu or mixed vegetablesDietary restrictions: They have something for all diets!

The sushi was fire but my dad got scallops that were 3 little tiny “scallops” , they were chewy rubbery, we got sat in this little room in the corner of the building with a tv, it was nice but we waited damn near and hour to order, the restaurant wasn’t even that busy at the time, needless to say my family won’t be coming back but I’ll just comeback for the sushi everything else is just a sad disappointment, building looks nice though

It’s just ok. The pad thai had a funny taste—sort of too sweet and too sour, both. The floor is so sticky our shoes were adhering to it. We will likely be back and try something different, but it isn’t the best food you’ll ever eat.
