So I planned a last minute birthday dinner for my husband. I stopped by Monday and asked if they could seat about 30 people and they happily said yes! (We had more than that show up and they accommodate us! My mother n law and sister in law got there before us to decorate and the restaurant had all tables moved to seat us all together and already had chips and salsa on the tables! Everything was amazing!!!
My husband thought we were just meeting his parents for dinner. So they were sitting up front waiting for us to arrive and the restaurant played along too asking us how many and taking us to the table! My husband had no idea! He couldn’t see anyone! Everyone was seated behind the wall in the front entrance!
Everyone who was working was absolutely amazing! Smiling and kind!! They did a great job taking orders, getting food out to us very quickly and taking care of everything we needed! Even putting our desserts in the fridge for us to lighting the candles singing happy birthday and even signing his number 40!
It was just an amazing experience! I highly recommend them! Thank y’all for being awesome ❤️

Came in around 12ish afternoon and it was literally empty as in no customers ALL the employers visible was sitting at the first table, nobody acknowledged me nor my sister as if we were inconvenienced them or some, then it took about 15 minutes just for the chips and salsa, food was great but most definitely hated the customer service. I wanted to order drinks but decided to do that else where

This place is very terrible than I ever experienced. The waitress and waiter seemed like they didn't have any experience in that field every time I order I had to write it down on their notepad for them and they still got it wrong . Don't go there.

Went to lunch with my son. This was our first visit and we really enjoyed it.
the food was eh.....the rice was overcooked, really mushy. I was brought the wrong order initially, and when getting my order, it wasn't what I asked for. I ordered a strawberry margarita and it didnt taste like strawberry just a regular margarita. I probably wouldn't go back. Oh and this is Margaritas just under the name of Sake and Tekila.

Let's get into it. We only got one salsa the whole time. Nobody gave us another. Make sure when you order a drink it's your favorite because that'll be your last cuz got damn. I ordered a water and a mojito and that's all I got no refill just that's it folks. It wasn't very busy but the service was slow. The waitress didn't make much eye contact so good luck flagging them down for a check. If you have on your bucket list to dine and dash this is a great starting place because they don't have very good bed side manor. Lol the food was basic. I could've got a frozen rice dinner from kroger and been good. The Gnat at the table checked up on us more than the waitress. First and last time here

## Sake vs Tekila: A Tale of Two Dinners (and a Roach)
This review is more of a cautionary tale than a head-to-head comparison of sake and tequila, since they're beverages, not restaurants. However, I can share my experience at Sake vs Tekila, a restaurant with a great two-for-one hibachi special...until things went south.
**The Good:**
* **Food and Price:** The first visit with a friend was fantastic! The food on the hibachi grill was delicious, and the two-for-one special made it an unbeatable value. My family and I returned specifically for this deal. * **Drinks (For Some):** The margaritas were apparently good – my mom enjoyed hers.
**The Not-So-Good:**
* **Language Barrier:** We encountered a language barrier with both servers, making communication a bit challenging.
**The Really Bad:**
* **Uninvited Guest:** Midway through the meal, my oldest daughter spotted a roach crawling on the wall of our booth. Needless to say, this was disgusting and ruined our appetite. * **Dismissive Response:** We notified the staff, expecting an apology and some kind of resolution. Unfortunately, the manager (or so she claimed) offered very little empathy. They denied experiencing roaches before, which seemed unlikely based on their reaction. * **Half-Hearted Solution:** After some back-and-forth, they only offered to remove one plate from the bill, even though the entire experience was spoiled.
**The Bottom Line:**
This experience was a major disappointment. While the food and price were initially appealing, a roach sighting is a major turn-off. The lack of concern from the management team solidified my decision to avoid this restaurant in the future.
**Final Thoughts:**
It's a shame, because the food seemed to have potential. If they can address the cleanliness issue and improve their customer service, they might be worth another try. However, based on this experience, I can't recommend Sake vs Tekila at this time.
What a great food business idea! Two great concepts put together! And the place is very clean and taken care of. Great service from the moment you walk in. The crew was very friendly and our server Karla was on spot every time she asked us if we needed anything. I am sure Mikey, the chef and manager (and I think one of the owners), is very proud of his crew. Can't wait to go back!
I will keep you posted!

GPS steered us wrong and I’m glad it did. I have seen this “chain” around but always thought it a strange mix of delicacies. Well… the sushi was phenomenal. We ordered a couple bowls of the onion soup which started the meal off right and then the Hawaiian and the Gustavo and both were excellent…!! Service was spot on and everything was in point!! Great job. We will definitely be back!! ?

So good I went twice!!! Great eclectic chain restaurants with drinks that will bobble your head and food that will fill your belly. First time I had a Texas Quesadillas. It was cooked well with a buttery golden crunchy exterior. Next time I had the combination fried rice with vegetables! Amazing. Great price point large shareable portions and friendly atmosphere.

I only scored low this visit because the steak was not flavorful and it was tough. Now in the past other dishes I have had was top notch.
