Why are there two pictures of Sake Sake Sushi? The first picture is their current location, which opened up in early November, 2018. The second picture was their original location, that was closed down so this shopping center, could get an Aldi grocery store. The original location was right next to Michael's, and on the south side of CVS. Now, they are on the north side of CVS.
This shopping center has many restaurants that I reviewed, the now closed China Gate, San Biagio's Pizza, and Handel's Ice Cream- where Wednesday nights are $1.35 scoops!!
The lunch time all you can eat is $21.95. The only rules are 90 minutes to order, you must eat the rice, and any leftover pieces are charged at $1.50 per piece.
Shrimp tempura-Crunchy outside, but mushy inside, a frozen shrimp tempura that needed more time cooking.
Calamari tempura- it seems they cooked this in two batches. Some were burned or overcooked. Others were cooked perfectly. After eating one of the burned pieces, I stuck to the perfectly cooked pieces.
Seared tuna, shrimp, and tuna. Good sized pieces, fresh
Rock N Roll- salmon, tuna, and albacore crabmeat, crabstick, avocado- Outside-cucumber and ponzu. Outstanding roll, fresh and good flavor combinations!
Crunch roll-crabmeat and shrimp tempura inside, crunchy outside. Most of the shrimp tempura they used in the rolls were small or not that fresh. One piece has the tail with very little shrimp.
Shrimp lover: Crabmeat and shrimp tempura inside. Outside- shrimp and avocado. A very good roll!!
Shrimp Tempura hand roll- just a ton of crabmeat. The shrimp tempura was ok.
Scallop Tempura roll- crabmeat, avocado, cucumber. Outside-scallop tempura. The scallop tempura was awesome!! There are a ton of them, and all cooked perfectly!
Crunch Rainbow Roll-Salmon, tuna, albacore outside. Crabmeat, crabstick, shrimp tempura inside. This had a bit too much sauce, but a good dish.
Service was pretty good. One thing, they total came out to $23.65. But, when I signed the credit card the card was charged $23.95. Now, 30 cents isn't a big deal, I did take away that 30 cents from his tip.
Sake Sake Sushi was pretty good, but not as good as some other all you can eat sushi restaurants. I won't go back.
