This is my favorite sushi place in the US. The owners will suggest options if you ask; these are among some of the best sushi items I remember eating anywhere. The maki is amazing here and the Sashimi is always extremely fresh.
My husband and I are originally from California and have had our fair share of sushi—but this place honestly blew us away. We’ve been living in Beaufort for a year now and can’t believe it took us this long to try it.
We ordered several of their most popular dishes—Monica Salad, Choi Roll, Birthday Roll, Snow Roll, White Castle, and Marine Roll—and every single one was amazing. Each roll had a clean, unique flavor combination, and it’s clear that a lot of thought goes into the ingredients and pairings.
We couldn’t stop talking about each dish as we left. It really was that good. The restaurant is run by Mr. Choi and Mrs. Monica, who were both so warm and friendly. They gave great recommendations, and service was excellent. We’re already planning our next visit!!

This is the best sushi I have ever had, it is phenomenal! We do not live in the area anymore, but when we visit it is always a stop we have to make. Birthday roll and Apple Blossom are the go to rolls!

I'm 38 years old, and having lived in several states and cities - this is the best sushi I have ever had the joy of eating. My wife and I look forward to being back. Sushi Sakana is a small family owned operation, so there is a wait period as they make your order by hand - and every piece of sushi is SO FREAKING GOOD. This was our first visit and we tried the Birthday Roll, the Beaufort Roll, the Ashley Roll, and the 911 roll. They were all delicious - the top two were the Biethday Roll and the 911. The Birthday Roll was brought out wrapped in foil and on fire - the lady of the restaurant cooked it at our table and engaged in light conversation. This was a an absolute magical work of food beauty. It had a savory grilled taste with notes of sweetness and spice. The 911 Roll was more on the spicy spectrum, but absolutely enjoyable!! If you're in Beaufort and find yourself wanting Sushi - DO NOT PASS on Sushi Sakana.

One of the better sushi restaurants in the area. The food has always been amazing, fish very fresh and service wonderful. It's a super cute small, simple family restaurant with an excellent menu with options for all members in our family. They have a limited beer, saki and wine selection but we do not go there for the liquor. The snow roll and birthday roll will not disappoint.

The BEST CRUNCHY SHRIMP ROLL ever!! It’s fresh it’s tasty and it is incomparable to any other place.

Best sushi I’ve ever had! My husband and I both dine in and get takeout regularly and it’s always great. We love the staff too.
I have been going to this restaurant for awhile and love it! It reminds me of Japan with the food they produce. I litterally cried the first time I tasted their sushi. If you want to taste of Japan here is your best bet! Highly recommend to anyone who loves sushi and wants something close to Japan sushi!

I went in and asked the lady about some of the different salads they have (seaweed) and if they had any rice less Sushi. She was helpful and suggested i try something i usually don't get. While it may be popular with most people, i did not care for it at all. I should have just gotten it the way i always have. Otherwise the other dishes were really good and the fact that they were willing and able to give me sushi without rice was the best thing ever!
