It's alright. Not great sushi but definitely not bad. A bit pricy for what it is, probably due to its central Brookside location. Sister restaurant to Jarocho which is a delicious Mexican style seafood restaurant. Wife is Japanese, husband is Mexican. The chirashi bowl was nice, lunch-only though.

It's everything for me! Great drinks, great food, and great service. They have a wonderful happy hour menu. From the chicken wings to the sushi, it's divine.

Because I work just a couple of blocks away from Sayachi, I have picked up lunch from here a few times when I want some Japanese food. They have some pretty good lunch specials. I really love their karage fried chicken- it's so crispy and delicious. I have also had the bento box with fish- it comes with rice, miso soup, cucumber salad, and a sushi roll (I got the California roll). I wouldn't recommend the grilled fish- I think it was just a frozen tilapia filet, and on the pricier side. I have never been here for happy hour, but it looks like they have some good HH specials too. All in all, I'll probably be back here again sometime!

My mezcal drink was delicious, the margarita was ok. Highly recommend the dumplings and edamame as appetizers. The ramen was a B- and my boyfriend rated the grilled tilapia as a A- I would recommend this restaurant, especially their happy hour menu. Lastly, the service was wonderful.

We got sushi takeout with their lunch deal and it was GREAT. One of the best sushi meals we have had in Kansas City. We got the shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, and yellow tail rolls. All were good. Also the edamame was great too. Overall yummy and pretty reasonable!

The sushi was ok. The atmosphere is nice but doesn't make up for the mediocre food. The fried tofu was the best indicator that their tempura skills have not been perfected. Tofu has to be dry and low moisture before it can be fried.
Amazing sushi and great staff. The experience was awesome. Wonderful date night or good casual drinks spot.

Very yummy rice bowl. Speed of service was perfect. We were at the restaurant at a slow time and were the only customers. The robot delivering the food was a fun touch!

Food was underwhelming for the location and price. Service by robot not my favorite thing. Decent meal but would not choose again.
