We ate at Sake Bomb last night, and both my wife and I got sick afterward—she had upset stomach right after dinner, and I felt nauseous and had upset stomach later on. Something definitely seemed off with the food. On top of that, I found out this place has failed health inspections multiple times, which is really concerning. Definitely disappointing because we were looking forward to a good meal. Just a heads-up to others—be careful. We won’t be coming back.

Saw a roach run across the dining table attached to the hibachi grill. Will never return here.

Ordered my usual doordash it's like six pieces of sushi &California roll. I don't know what they did tonight but they put a not fresh fish sushi piece. I'm sorry it was tinned mackerel. I called me oh no that's fresh I said no it's not. And she said oh it tastes because the chef torched your sushi?????? I'm sorry what. Why would you torch sushi when you've never done it before for any of my other five orders. It was a tinned mackerel. 🤢 Are we now skimping on to go orders???

Love this place, good food great portions, and quite affordable. All good is well crafted and delicious, love the appetizers. If you're a fan of tuna I recommend the rainbow Naruto, it's rolled in thin sliced cucumber instead of rice and it's tasty, filling, and very refreshing.

HIGHLY recommend going to Sake Bomb in Cicero if you want to get hair in your food and then be asked how your dinner was and then be told you are in the wrong, or imply you are lying. The hair was in the rice and I pointed it out to the chef not once, but 2 times and he just kept it moving. I also never recieved my food, at all. Dont worry though they COMPROMISED and offered to take the stuff I never recieved off our check. So thanks for going above and beyond for us! 🤗
These 2 women then came over and started raising their voice in the middle of a table and accusing us of lying and saying we “ate all the food and didn’t complain until the end” except for the waitress never came back until the end… just like I guess I am in the wrong for not getting up from the table to go find the waitress to hunt down my food?! Ive never felt so gaslit in my life.
Truly NOT impressed at all. We will never be back.

As a doordash driver, when I walk into a mostly empty restaurant, I don’t expect to hear I have a 18 min wait for food.

This place used to be SO MUCH better but over the last two years the quality has dropped considerably. Took my Dad a few days ago for his birthday and the sushi bar was dirty and had rice and other food particulate everywhere. We had to clean it up. A lot of the soy sauce dishes were filthy, and my Dad's beer glass had a lip print on the glass from a previous customer. The servers are always sweating because they're so busy (understaffed?), which is unappealing. They also never have urchin or tuna belly; I'm not sure why it's even on the menu because I ask every time I'm in and not once have they had either. Also, the men's bathroom is disgusting.
Considering sushi is a once-in-a-while treat for me, I'm more than willing to drive further for a more fulfilling experience. There are much better options in Syracuse. This was the last time for me at Sake Bomb.

The wait for a chef was very long compared to the other parties that came in after us and had a chef. We went in with a group and spent roughly an hour of just waiting to be served food. Our waitress was nice but seemed super rushed. Pricing was decent and food portions were extremely generous. over all flavor was decent but we had to ask for additional sauces like hot sauce ect. The chef was really fun and the show he put on was great. seating was a tad awkward because I had to sit at the sharp edge of the table and really not enough space to eat. They do automatically add tip onto your receipt that is split for the serve and chef, I believe it’s a 15 or 20 percent tip. So be aware when you are manually adding a tip. We had to check twice because we almost double tipped. (We added a few extra dollars to our actual server) I got the chicken and shrimp hibachi combo but the steak and shrimp my fiance got was way better! I would recommend the steak for sure. Parking is weird and overpacked . No good structure for parking.

We dined in tonight and I ordered the chicken hibachi and my chicken was over cooked. Vegetables were good. Not sure if I’d go back again.
Sake Bomb does not take reservation for groups less than 6. Our group had 4 people so we were put into their automated notification system. The wait was approximately 30 minutes and we were notified our table was ready so the checked us in. After standing for 10 minutes I reminded them that they told us our table was ready, had written us down on but had not yet seated us. They informed us that a reservation had just arrived and had "literally" bump us from our table. The reservation that came in behind us only had 5 people show up. When I asked how they would call us for a table again, after they already checked us in, they so we were still in the computer. Where in the computer? Next to be seated. At the bottom of the list. Where?? They couldn't tell me but I had to wait. I made it easy for them and went to Olive Garden instead. They shouldn't have call a party of four when they had a party of 6 already schedule. They were extremely busy and I'm sure they didn't miss our business. I'm sure the waitress at Olive Garden appreciated the 20% + tip too!

It was ok, ordered 3 rolls and they were falling apart on me. The most soup had no flavor either. I mean I get it, there's not a lot of competition out there so quality doesn't have to be great

I ordered on DoorDash a chicken hibachi dinner. I even called the restaurant ahead of time to make sure that I could order Gluten Free and Seafood-free because of an allergy. The girl ASSURED ME that as long as I put that in the "Notes" on my order, that the dish would be made not touching any gluten or seafood. Well, halfway through eating the dish, I moved some chicken and noticed a giant piece of shrimp hidden in with the chicken. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!? This is literally why I called ahead to MAKE SURE that it was fine for me to order from them. Thankfully I can still breathe right now, but man, how freaking negligent. This could have been REALLY BAD. I will never eat at this place ever again. For anyone who has any allergies... you've been warned.
Dietary restrictions: See my review. They SUCK at following instructions for dietary restrictions. Thankfully I didn't eat any food that was directly touching the shrimp. But still... just wow.

The worst service ever. Got sat, waited over 25 minutes and not a single soul came to check on us. Had a party of 20+ come in and lined up right in front of our table. No one said anything, came to take our order or anything. Even after I asked if we could get service. Completely ignored. I will never set foot in this place again which is sad bc we used to love it here. Complete joke on every level.
